Electrocommunication for weakly electric fish
Department of Mathematics, ETH Zürich, Rämistrasse 101, CH-8092 Zürich, Switzerland |
This paper addresses the problem of the electro-communication for weakly electric fish. In particular we aim at sheding light on how the fish circumvent the jamming issue for both electro-communication and active electro-sensing. Our main result is a real-time tracking algorithm, which provides a new approach to the communication problem. It finds a natural application in robotics, where efficient communication strategies are needed to be implemented by bio-inspired underwater robots.
