Underwater Acoustic wireless communication becomes a popular research area for transmitting and receiving data between the communicators in the ocean environment. High accuracy in data communication can be succeeded by proficient modeling of carrier sense multiple access and time division access. For such innovations, the system has to proceed with an appropriate framework to make constant data traffic and limitations on start to finish data traffic delays. There are two major wireless communication multiple access methods that can be utilized in real-time underwater networks. One of the multiple access schemes is TDMA and another one is CSMA/CA. This paper concentrated on the modeling of TDMA and CSMA/CA also proposes the comparison of delay (end-end) of both multiple access protocols. The results using SNC to obtain delay bounds and are associated with simulation. The results show TDMA has a lesser efficiency than CSMA/CA in the acoustic environment.
Summary
The usage of the underwater communication channel and medium access control (MAC) layer protocol architecture is the most problematic aspect of a seawater wireless communication network. The underwater acoustic wireless communication is a highly appealing choice for information transfer in the communication medium. However, calculating the deferral rate for transmitting real‐time traffic is a challenging task in the underwater environment. Therefore, it introduces the research challenges related to underwater communication, especially throughput and transmission deferral. This research work investigates an MAC protocol U‐TDMA with multi‐hop worst‐case delay analysis for different flow and relays. This research intended to compare the execution of the U‐TDMA protocol with stochastic network calculus (SNC) and without SNC. The U‐TDMA‐wireless protocol establishes the connection and forwards the fish‐mandated information to the mobile sink with the help of upper layers. Also, it improves interface efficiency by taking account of the lengthy delay time of the underwater acoustic channel and addressing difficulties connected to the terminal.
