Abstract

Recently, Communication media have been developed for the underwater communication in underwater environments where the underwater communication failures occur frequently. Although the underwater communication by one medium is not stable due to the influence of the underwater environment, the use of various communication media can complement each other and so this makes the underwater communication more stable. For this reason, this paper proposes approaches to the design and implementation of integrated MAC for complementing individual unstable underwater communications. In addition this paper presents the comparison and analysis on each of the proposed approaches so to be able to provide guidelines to designers and implementers of integrated MAC.
