| Abstract | Unlike terrestrial networks that mainly rely on radio waves for communications, underwater networks utilize acoustic waves, which have comparatively lower loss and longer range in underwater environments. However, acoustic waves incurs long propagation delays that typically lead to low throughput especially in protocols that require receiver feedback such as multimedia stream delivery. In addition, energy cost of transmission underwater is much higher than reception (almost 125:1 [1]). Thus, collision and retransmission should be reduced in order to reduce energy cost and improve throughput Receiver-based protocols, like RIPT and COS-TS, can significantly reduce collision and retransmission. But they are time and energy consuming because nodes are controlled to turn into receiver mode by control packets or a timer regardless of load. In this paper, we propose an underwater practical MAC protocol, called UPMAC. The main objective of UPMAC is to adapt to the network load conditions by providing two modes (high and low load modes) and switching between them based on different offered load. Turn-around time overhead is reduced and it is less vulnerable to control packet corruption, since we reduce the use of control packets by the technique of piggyback. UPMAC provides a low data collision rate in both one-hop and multi-hop situation because we use Receiver-based approach in high load mode. Extensive simulations show that our approach can achieve significantly better performance in both general and Sea Swarm (tree) topologies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
