Abstract

A method for transmitting signals in a subsea environment includes determining that a quality of an acoustic signal is below a threshold. The acoustic signal travels from a first device, through water in the subsea environment, to a second device. A parameter of the first device, the second device, or both is then adjusted to improve the quality of the acoustic signal when the quality of the acoustic signal is below the threshold.
