    Conference report
    Open Access
    A model for a double pendulum Wave Energy Converter (WEC) for drifter applications has been developed and validated. The WEC is composed by an articulated arm, a gear train, a flywheel, a one-way bearing and a DC generator. ...

  • Miniaturised bidirectional acoustic tag to enhance marine animal tracking studies 

    Masmitjà Rusiñol, Ivan; Corregidor, Daniel; López Navarro, Juan Manuel; Martínez Padró, Enoc; Navarro, Joan; Gomáriz Castro, Spartacus (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Acoustic underwater tags are key devices to study marine animals and comprehend their patterns, which provide essential behavioural information for applying new conservation policies. At present, all the acoustic tags have ...

  • Analysis and initial design of bidirectional acoustic tag modulation schemes and communication protocol 

    Corregidor, Daniel; Masmitjà Rusiñol, Ivan; López Navarro, Juan Manuel; Gomáriz Castro, Spartacus; Navarro, Joan; De Arcas Castro, Guillermo (2021)
    Conference report
