To make full use of the underwater acoustic channel, a high degree adaptivity is typically required. A novel framework for efficient evaluation link adaptation employing channel replay simulation with Watermark and lookup table proposed. The approach used to compare based on SNR CRC feedback using measured sea data. best performance obtained criterion since it detects if communication has poor behaviour. method further improved by introducing memory mechanism that disables repeated low reliability.
