Self-Adaptive MAC and Routing Protocols for Mobile Underwater Acoustic ...
Mobile underwater acoustic sensor networks have been widely used in marine data collection, pollution detection, disaster prediction, underwater target search and the other areas. Network protocols are aimed to enhance the reliability and the efficiency of the data transmission for these network applications. However, the mobility of underwater nodes introduces dynamic changes in the network ...
An Adaptive MAC Protocol for Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks With ...
The channel reservation mechanism is devised to reduce end-to-end delay and improve throughput for underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) with dynamic load. Unfortunately, in dynamic-high-load UASNs, frequent channel reservation will lead to an increase in end-to-end delay and a decrease in throughput due to long propagation delay and collisions. To reduce end-to-end delay and improve ...
