Summary:This study proposes a new efficient MAC (media access control)
protocol to establish the ultrasonic communication network for
underwater vehicles, which ensures a certain level of maximum throughput
regardless of the propagation delay of ultrasonics and allows fast data
transmission through the multiple ultrasonic communication channel. In
this study, a media access control protocol for underwater communication
network that allows `peer-to-peer' communication between a surface ship
and multiple underwater systems is designed and the proposed control
protocol is implemented for its verification. The experimental results
of the system are verified to a high performance with 9600 bps for
transmitting the underwater image through the basin test. The test
results are also verified which allows desirable transmission
performance compared with the existing developed system
