Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of underwater acoustic communication and underwater network, in particular to a channel multiple access method of an underwater acoustic network. Background technique
[0002] In an underwater acoustic network, MAC (Media Access Control) is responsible for coordinating efficient and fair access channels for all nodes in the network, aiming to avoid transmission conflicts when different nodes access shared channels. Without the support of an efficient MAC mechanism, data packet transmission collisions between adjacent links in the process of exchanging information between nodes in the network will reduce network throughput, increase system delay, and cause very low channel utilization. rate and battery energy utilization, seriously deteriorating network performance. In underwater acoustic networks where bandwidth and energy resources are very precious, designing an efficient MAC mechanism suitable for underw...
