An Interesting Story Behind This Work (Cont.) Dr. Catipovic: These could be the interference from sonar users. Dr. Zhou to Zhaohui: Can you do an investigation on the existing interference cancellation methods? Zhaohui to Dr. Zhou: Sure. ◮ Limited research on interference cancellation in UWA communications ◮ External interference cancellation in radio communications ⋆ Narrowband interference with large time -duration ⋆ Impulsive interference with large bandwidth Zhaohui to Dr. Zhou: These methods do not apply to this kind of partial-band (e.g., 2 kHz vs 5 kHz) partial-block-duration (e.g., 45 ms vs 150 ms) interference Dr. Zhou to Zhaohui: Hmm..., let’s develop our own method.

Generality of the Proposed Method During the development of this work, we realized that... The method applies as long as the interference can be parameterized. External interference, e.g., ◮ Unintentional interference, e.g. interference from sonar operations ◮ Interference from marine mammals ◮ Dumb malicious jamming, as you’ll see later Internal interference, e.g., ◮ Interblock interference ◮ Multi -access interference ⇒ How does it work?
