Most of the MAC protocols for wireless terrestrial communication networks have been designed with negligible propagation delay. If it is deployed directly in an underwater environment,the UANs will perform inefficiently. In this paper,the characteristics of underwater acoustic channel are modeled and simulated by using the OPNET simulation tool,which are the speed of sound, propagation loss, and four sources for ambient noise: the turbulence,shipping,wind driven waves and thermal noise. The performance of pure Aloha( P-Aloha),carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance( CSMA / CA) and multiple access collision avoidance for wireless local area network( MACAW) protocols in underwater acoustic channel environment are evaluated. The different performance of protocols in underwater environment is compared in the simulation.展开更多

First, we propose the P-MAC mechanism to shorten the time of establishing the Ad-Hoc network. Based on the P-MAC, we propose a more efficient way to maintain the network. Next, focusing on the power line communication (PLC) network which is a kind of Ad-Hoc network,we propose a frequency division power line communication (FD-PLC) network architecture to obtain the best communication frequency. To obtain the best frequency, i.e., highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), we design the frequency sweeping mechanism which can determine the frequency of uplink and downlink communication before the transmitter and receiver communicate. Due to the large-scale networks in industry,P-MAC can be exploited to speed up the establishment of the Ad-Hoc PLC network. Finally, we compare our mechanism with CSMA. Numerical results indicate that our strategy greatly shortens the time of establishing the Ad-Hoc network.展开更多
