Summary: In this article, a hybrid coding-aware routing protocol (HCAR) is proposed for underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs). HCAR introduces interflow network coding and combines reactive routing with opportunistic routing to effectively reduce the number of transmissions. Simulation results and sea tests demonstrate that HCAR can optimize the routing problem of UASNs with multiple source nodes and a single sink node.

Summary: In this paper, a centralized clustering protocol called Low-Energy Dynamic Clustering (LEDC) is proposed to enhance the energy efficiency in query-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs). LEDC utilizes prediction-based scheme and centralized optimal dynamic cluster formation algorithms to match the distribution of clusters with that of query targets, and suggests an energy-aware forwarding strategy and a parallel processing algorithm to improve energy efficiency and network throughput.

Summary: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is an efficient technology in intelligent communication and has been widely used in various applications. This research proposes a Fuzzy Model for Content-Centric Routing (FMCCR) in WSN to address the challenges of heterogeneous data routing. FMCCR achieves better performance by controlling the network topology and using content-centric and fuzzy logic-based routing algorithm for data transmission. Simulation results show that FMCCR reduces energy consumption, improves traffic load distribution, and increases network lifetime compared to previous methods. These results demonstrate the efficiency of FMCCR for real-world scenarios.

Summary: This paper presents a wireless control area network (CAN bus) protocol for communication between a smart NOx sensor and the engine control unit (ECU) in diesel engines. The design and implementation of a wireless CAN communication node is based on a case study of Wartsila's smart NOx sensor on a W4L20 diesel engine. The smart NOx sensor is currently connected to the ECU using a wired CAN bus connection, which is replaced by a wireless CAN prototype using the XBee module with ZigBee technology.

Summary: This paper proposes a novel beaconless geographical routing (BGR) protocol called heterogeneity-aware BGR (HA-BGR) that takes into account the locations of candidate forwarders and different transmission ranges. Through analytical and simulation results, it is shown that HA-BGR outperforms the recently proposed convex-lense decision region BGR (CDR-BGR) in terms of the number of next-hop candidates, end-to-end delivery ratio, and latency.

Summary: This paper proposes a real-time routing protocol called EAR2 for mobile sinks in wireless sensor networks. EAR2 calculates data delivery speed by considering the static distance to the expected area of a mobile sink's location and its movement speed, in order to meet the desired time deadline. Additionally, a protocol called EAR2M with multiple flooding points is proposed to reduce flooding time and enhance data transmission reliability.

Summary: This paper proposes a reinforcement-learning-based opportunistic routing protocol (ROEVA) to address the challenges faced by underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) such as high propagation delay, low transmission reliability, energy limitation, and void routing. Through the use of a reward function based on reinforcement learning and a waiting mechanism to reduce packet redundancy and collisions, the ROEVA protocol outperforms other existing protocols in terms of energy efficiency, packet delivery ratio, average hop count, and end-to-end delay.
