Underwater communication plays a crucial role in monitoring the aquatic environment on
Earth. Due to their unique characteristics, underwater acoustic channels present unique …

Underwater acoustic telemetry has emerged as a powerful tool for practical applications,
including resource exploration, environmental monitoring, and aquatic animal tracking …

Underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) are challenged by the dynamic nature of the
underwater environment, large propagation delays, and global positioning system (GPS) …

A major amount of the energy of battery-powered sensors is spent during packet
transmissions. This issue has led to the development of power-control-based multiple …

Underwater Acoustic Wireless Sensor Networks (UAWSN) is a collection of sensor nodes
that are strategically placed at different depths under water to monitor the activities of …

The time delay of underwater acoustic propagation is much larger than that of terrestrial
wireless propagation, so the cost of collision will be much larger for underwater acoustic …

In this paper, we propose a Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for mobile Underwater
Acoustic Sensor Networks (UWASNs), based on framed-ALOHA and Reinforcement …

Despite covering 71% of Earth's surface, 80% of the oceans remain unexplored and
unmapped. Even if extremely important, ocean exploration is just one of many applications …

When an underwater acoustic sensor network (UASN) is applied to underwater data
collection, different data importance rating (DIR) of sensor nodes will affect the scheduling …
