The features of transmissions in underwater sensor networks (UWSNs) include lower transmission rate, longer delay time, and higher power consumption when compared with terrestrial radio transmissions. The negative effects of transmission collisions deteriorate in such environments. Existing UWSN routing protocols do not consider the transmission collision probability differences resulting from different transmission distances. In this paper, we show that collision probability plays an important role in route selection and propose an energy-efficient routing protocol (DRP), which considers the distance-varied collision probability as well as each node's residual energy. Considering these 2 issues, DRP can find a path with high successful transmission rate and high-residual energy. In fact, DRP can find the path producing the longest network lifetime, which we have confirmed through theoretical analysis. To the best of our knowledge, DRP is the first UWSN routing protocol that uses transmission collision probability as a factor in route selection. Simulation results verify that DRP extends network lifetime, increases network throughput, and reduces end-to-end delay when compared with solutions without considering distance-varied collision probability or residual energy.

“…Based on the ROPA, Yang et al proposed an improved protocol SRCR, by which a new concept 'concurrent' was added [9]. This means that senders and receiver may transmit DP to each other [10]. Although the bidirectional concurrent protocol BIC was proposed to allow senders and receivers exchange DP at the same time [10], it needed much exchanging time.…”

Studies on MAC protocols of the Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network (UASN) are very important due to wide application area and great application potential of UASN. In this paper, a new concurrent bidirectional MAC protocol based on receiver self-adaption (RABIC-MAC) is proposed to improve the data transmission efficiency and reduce the overhead. Then the throughput and the End-to-End delay are calculated, and then compared with the BIC protocol. Results show that the saturated throughput is larger 16.7 % and 33.0 % for 4200 and 6125 m, respectively, than the BIC. The saturated End-to-End delay is larger 13.0 % and 20.0 % for 4200 and 6125 m, respectively, than the BIC. Therefore, the RABIC-MAC evidently improves performances of UASN.

Although multiple channels are supported in the physical layer, the IEEE 802.11 MAC layer mechanism is designed for using a single channel. Exploiting multiple channels enhances spatial reuse and reduces transmission collisions and thus improves network throughput. Designing a multi-channel MAC protocol is much more difficult than designing a singlechannel one. New challenges, such as the channel allocation problem and the missing receiver problem, must be overcome. Existing multi-channel MAC protocols suffer from either higher hardware cost (because of applying multiple transceivers) or lower channel utilization (due to limited transmission opportunity). In this paper, a fully distributed channel hopping solution, the Cyclic-Quorum-based Multi-channel (CQM) MAC protocol, is proposed. We use the cyclic quorum in a novel way and the proposed protocol has several attractive features. First, only a single transceiver is needed for each node. Second, any sender is guaranteed to meet its receiver in a short time. Third, each node's channel hopping sequence is derived from its node ID. This avoids exchanging control messages, such as each node's hopping sequence or available channel list. Fourth, multiple transmission pairs can accomplish handshaking simultaneously. The proposed protocol is simple and efficient. Simulation and real system implementation results verify that our mechanism is a promising multi-channel MAC protocol for mobile ad hoc networks.
