CARP: A Channel-aware Routing Protocol for Underwater Acoustic Wireless Networks

TLDR
Results show that CARP robust mechanism for relay selection doubles the packet delivery, which has been investigated through ns2-based simulations and experiments at sea.
Abstract
The paper concerns the definition and performance evaluation of a new multi-hop routing protocol for underwater wireless sensor networks Our solution, termed CARP for Channel-aware Routing Protocol, exploits link quality information for data forwarding, in that nodes are selected as relays if they exhibit recent history of successful transmissions to their neighbors CARP avoids loops and can successfully route around connectivity voids and shadow zones by using simple topology information, such as hop count The protocol is also designed to take advantage of power control for selecting robust links The performance of CARP has been compared with that of two other protocols for underwater routing, namely, the Focused Beam Routing (FBR) and a flooding-based solution (EFlood) Metrics of interest include packet delivery ratio, end-to-end packet latency and energy consumption, which have been investigated through ns2-based simulations and experiments at sea The in-field trials have been conducted at two European locations, namely, a Norwegian fjord and the Mediterranean Sea The tests in the Mediterranean Sea have been performed jointly with the NATO Science and Technology Organization Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (STO CMRE), under a collaboration agreement between the University of Roma and CMRE 1 Our results show that CARP robust mechanism for relay selection doubles the packet delivery

Dynamic Source Routing in Ad Hoc Wireless Networks.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a protocol for routing in ad hoc networks that uses dynamic source routing, which adapts quickly to routing changes when host movement is frequent, yet requires little or no overhead during periods in which hosts move less frequently.

A tutorial on cross-layer optimization in wireless networks

TL;DR: It is shown that a clean-slate optimization-based approach to the multihop resource allocation problem naturally results in a "loosely coupled" cross-layer solution, and how to use imperfect scheduling in the cross- layer framework is demonstrated.
