Data-Gathering Scheme Using AUVs in Large-Scale Underwater Sensor Networks: A Multihop Approach
In this paper, we propose a data-gathering scheme for hierarchical underwater sensor networks, where multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are deployed over large-scale coverage areas. The deployed AUVs constitute an intermittently connected multihop network through inter-AUV synchronizatio...
