A MAC Protocol for Underwater Sensor Networks

摘要：

?There exists an increasing demand for reliable, high capacity underwater sensor networks. Application interests include oceanographic information acquiring, environmental monitoring, and coastal defense. A multi-channel media access control (MAC) protocol used for underwater acoustic channel which improves the network efficiency by using RTS-CTS exchange is presented. Simulation tests on OPNET modeler show that, its network communication performance is satisfactory.
