    Abstract: Magneto-quasistatic signals may be used to enable under-liquid communication between devices. A magneto-quasistatic signal transmitter of an under-liquid device may transmit a magneto-quasistatic signal conveying communication data through liquid. A magneto-quasistatic signal receiver of another under-liquid device may receive the magneto-quasistatic signal and extract the communication data from the magneto-quasistatic signal. The under-liquid device that received the magneto-quasistatic signal may use the communication data, store the communicate data, and/or relay the communication data (e.g., to another under-liquid device, to an above-liquid device) using another magneto-quasistatic signal.

    Abstract: Magneto-electric quasistatic (MEQS) field may be used to track positions of persons and/or objects inside metallic environments. A magneto-electric quasistatic field generator may generate a magneto-electric quasistatic field inside a metallic environment. A magneto-electric quasistatic field detector inside the metallic environment may detect the magneto-electric quasistatic field and generate output signals conveying characteristics of the magneto-electric quasistatic field. The relative position of the magneto-electric quasistatic field detector with respect to the magneto-electric quasistatic field generator may be determined based on the output signals. The position of the magneto-electric quasistatic field detector/generator and/or the position of a person/object carrying the magneto-electric quasistatic field detector/generator may be tracked using the relative position of the magneto-electric quasistatic field detector with respect to the magneto-electric quasistatic field generator.
