Cost Effective Acknowledgement Mechanism for Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network

In this paper, we proposed Cost Effective Acknowledgement (CEA) method which was based on Multiple Acknowledgement (MA) [1] method and proposed by Smart Block Medium Access Control (SBMAC) [2]. The proposed method can reply the information of transmission error states of all Senders within smaller storage space. Especially, the number of transmission and the frame length was minimized to reduce transmission error. The performance of the proposed method and conventional methods such as Normal Multiple Acknowledgement (NMA) and Selective Multiple Acknowledgement (SMA) method [3] was calculated and compared with each other. The calculation results showed the best performance in case of the proposed method.
