  • Abstract
    A hybrid wireless communication approach, thermoacoustic communication (TAC), is introduced. Based on thermoacoustic effect, TAC is able to directly convert electromagnetic energy into acoustic energy without involving any intermediate device. Detailed description of TAC working principles is provided. A proof-of-concept experiment is performed to demonstrate the TAC concept.
