Summary:The MAC layer protocol of underwater acoustic communication networks (UACN) determines how nodes share the underwater acoustic channel resources. It directly affects utilization of underwater acoustic channel and the performance of overall networks. Based on the CSMA/CA and CSIP-CSMA/CA protocols, the Weighted Adaptive Backoff Time Control (CSIP-BF-CSMA/CA) protocol is proposed aiming to improve the binary exponential backoff algorithm. Simulation results show that the SIP-BF-CSMA/CA protocol has significant advantages in key metrics such as channel utilization, end-to-end delay, energy consumption and it will not have an impact on networks throughput.
