This paper presents a demonstration of broadband OFDM combined with massive MIMO transmission for improving the stability and capacity of underwater acoustic communication (UWAC). UWAC systems suffer from doubly selective channels with long delay spreads and severe time variations. Conventional approaches handle delayed paths at the cost of efficiency and rely on complex processing to compensate for Doppler effects. The proposed scheme employs broadband transmission with shortened symbol duration, allowing inter-symbol interference while suppressing its impact through array diversity gain. In addition, CSI-based spatial filtering separates dominant propagation paths. We have developed a measurement-based experimental platform, and the demonstration shows near real-time transmission using a small water tank. |
