Abstract :
An analytical model for mobile-to-mobile underwater communications is presented. From the analytical model, the envelope level crossing rate is derived for a non-isotropic scattering environment. The obtained analytical results are compared with measured data. The close agreement between the analytical and empirical curves confirms the utility of the proposed model.
