title: Reinforcement Learning Based MAC Protocol (UW-ALOHA-QM) for Mobile Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks
abstract: The demand for ocean exploration and exploitation is rapidly increasing and this has led to rapid growth in the market of mobile vehicles. Given the mobility, the key challenge is to design a highly adaptive solution with minimal signalling (and the associated delays) which current techniques have not fully addressed. Therefore, the mobility and associated challenges in the underwater channel necessitates the design of a new approach to Medium Access Control (MAC) which provides the capability t
