description To solve the multi-ship interaction problem under the scenario of multi-modal ships, this paper designed a ship Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) dominated by an autonomous ship. Foremost, we discussed the development and status of autonomous ships, proposed the inevitability of multi-modal ship scenarios, and analyzed the applicability of ad hoc networks in maritime communication. After that, a ship MANET under the guidance of an autonomous ship was designed, including the system composition, network mode, and network management method. We built the ship MANET connectivity model and analyzed its attributes. In addition, the transmission capacity of the ship as a network node is also analyzed. In conclusion, we believe that the ship MANET is feasible and effective in the scenario of multi-modal ships.
