— Underwater acoustic communication networks have attracted attention for its applications in many areas such as mine warfare, rapid environmental assessment or search and rescue...
A medium access control (MAC) protocol is proposed that is suitable for non-synchronized ad-hoc networks, and in particular for the energy-constrained underwater acoustic networks...
—We propose a scheme for routing and placement of mobile data collectors in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs). The proposed scheme maximizes the lifetime of the network...
—For the sake of maximizing the network lifetime, we propose a novel placement scheme for mobile data collectors in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs). Our scheme is bas...
The requirements of multimedia underwater monitoring applications with heterogeneous traffic demands in terms of bandwidth and end-to-end reliability are considered in this artic...
