RLT Code Based Handshake-Free Reliable MAC Protocol for Underwater Sensor Networks
The characteristics of underwater acoustic channels such as long propagation delay and low bit rate cause the medium access control (MAC) protocols designed for radio channels to either be inapplicable or have low efficiency for underwater sensor networks (UWSNs). Meanwhile, due to high bit error, c...
