摘要: 作为一种新型的水下通信方法, 电场通信具有能耗低, 不易受外界环境干扰, 实时性、全向性好等优点, 可在小型水下机器人水下通信、组网中发挥良好作用。在前期的研究中, 已将电场通信系统集成在一款仿箱鲀机器鱼上。但由于使用的是共享信道, 当多机器鱼(节点)通信时, 难免出现通信碰撞问题。文中基于无线通信网络载波侦听多路访问/冲突避免(CSMA/CA)协议提出了电场通信协议。介绍了协议的运行机制以及信道状态的检测方法。为验证设计协议的有效性, 进行了MATLAB仿真及3条机器鱼电场通信实验。结果表明, 该协议能有效减少通信碰撞的发生。

Abstract: As a novel underwater communication method, electrocommunication has the following advantages: lower energy consumption, less susceptible to external interference, real-time, and high omnidirectional performance. It has become a potential method for underwater communication and networking among small underwater robots. In previous research activities, the electrocommunication system has been integrated into a boxfish-like robotic fish. However, when multiple robotic fishes(nodes) communicate, collision is unavoidable because they share same electrocommunication channel. In this paper, an electrocommunication protocol based on the carrier sense multiple access/collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocol of wireless communication networks is proposed to solve the collision problem. The operating mechanism of the protocol and the channel state detection method are introduced. In order to validate the effectiveness of the proposed protocol, MATLAB simulations and electrocommunication experiments using three robotic fishes were conducted. The results show that this protocol can effectively reduce the occurrence of communication collisions. -
