DR-ALOHA-Q: A Q-Learning-Based Adaptive MAC Protocol for Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks
Underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) are challenged by the dynamic nature of the underwater environment, large propagation delays, and global positioning system (GPS) signal unavailability, which make traditional medium access control (MAC) protocols less effective. These factors limit the ch...
