About
Geraint M. Goodfellow is a leading figure in underwater acoustics and marine robotics, with a focus on developing compact, robust communication and positioning systems for subsea environments. His most cited work, the 2015 paper on the “Seatrac” miniature acoustic modem and USBL positioning units, has garnered 42 citations and stands as a cornerstone of his research. This system, developed under the EU FP7 project CADDY, provides efficient, reliable acoustic networking to connect divers, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), and autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) during cooperative missions. Goodfellow’s major contributions lie in advancing modulation schemes and receiver algorithms that enable low-power, high-performance communication in challenging underwater conditions. His work directly supports real-world applications in subsea robotics and diver operations, enhancing the safety and coordination of marine exploration. With a career dedicated to bridging the gap between theoretical acoustics and practical engineering, Goodfellow’s innovations have made him a key contributor to the field, inspiring further research into miniaturized, energy-efficient underwater systems.
