Abstract

In this paper we propose spread spectrum-based adaptive array receiver structures for reliable low data-rate multi-access communication in the shallow-water acoustic channel. The performance of the proposed receiver algorithms is evaluated by employing both offline processing and simulation. Results indicate that multi-access error-free reception is attainable in network scenarios where transmission is multipath impaired
