WiFi Shore-to-vessel communications dataset

Aquatic environments impose challenging conditions for signal propagation, impairing ubiquitous connectivity between (IoT) nodes resulting in degraded application performance. This dataset gathers information on the channel characteristics at 2.4 GHz between an Autonomous Underwater Vessel (AUV) and two shore nodes [termed Manta and DMU] (shore-to-vessel communications) operating overwater. The measurement campaign was conducted during the flooding period in the Port of Leixões, Matosinhos, Portugal, behind a coastal breakwater during July 2021.
