Houben, Jort (author)A common problem in wireless communication is the existence of multipath propagation. This means that a transmitted signal is received multiple times because of reflections caused by the environment. We present two ways of modeling multipath propagation of an acoustic underwater signal. We discretise these models to solve them numerically....bachelor thesis 2023
