“…To the best of our knowledge, the above questions have not been addressed yet. In [3]- [5] the tri-axis coils are employed, but there is no effort to reduce the coil number while maintaining the reliability. The analyses in [1]- [5] are point-to-point communications, i.e., there is only one transmitter and one receiver.…”

Underwater magnetic induction communications (UWMICs) provide a low-power and high-throughput solution for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), which are envisioned to explore and monitor the underwater environment. UWMIC with tri-axis coils increases the reliability of the wireless channel by exploring the coil orientation diversity. However, the UWMIC channel is different from typical fading channels and the mutual inductance information (MII) is not always available. It is not clear the performance of the tri-axis coil MIMO without MII. Also, its performances with multiple users have not been investigated. In this paper, we analyze the reliability and multiplexing gain of UWMICs with tri-axis coils by using coil selection. We optimally select the transmit and receive coils to reduce the computation complexity and power consumption and explore the diversity for multiple users. We find that without using all the coils and MII, we can still achieve reliability. Also, the multiplexing gain of UWMIC without MII is 5dB smaller than typical terrestrial fading channels. The results of this paper provide a more power-efficient way to use UWMICs with tri-axis coils.

Wireless sensors in extreme environments, such as underground, concrete wall and the human body, can enable a large number of important applications. However, deploying wireless sensors on a large scale is a great challenge due to the environment and the high cost and large profile of wireless sensors. Backscatter communication can reduce the cost and size of wireless sensors by removing most of the typical wireless components. In this paper, we propose to leverage the RFID sensors for inter-media magnetic induction-based backscatter communications (MIBC). In this way, the complexity and cost of wireless sensors can be significantly reduced. The sensors leverage magnetic signals to backscatter information which demonstrate high penetration efficiency. We design a system with channel estimation, optimal signal transmission strategy, and an optimal receiver. The channel between the aboveground reader and underground sensors are modeled by using a stratified medium model. The bit-error-rate is evaluated with different configurations. The results suggest that MIBC can be utilized for most of the inter-media applications with low power consumption and high penetration efficiency.
