COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL FOR SHIP AD-HOC NETWORK

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for communications of a marine moving body ad hoc network and a node thereof are provided to perform routing and medium access control (MAC) in one algorithm in consideration of a marine communications environment. CONSTITUTION: A communications mode setting part (100) sets up a communications mode for transmitting and receiving a message based on whether there is the other node around a node or not and an available channel situation of the node. A communications control setting part (200) comprises a communications activation part and a communications deactivation part. The communications control setting part performs set-up for transmitting and receiving the message based on reception target information included in the message and the type of the message. A message transceiver (300) transmits and receives the message according to the set communications mode and communications control set-up.
