Marine Mammal Conflict Avoidance Method Design and Spectrum Allocation Strategy.

Underwater wireless sensor networks play an important role in underwater communication systems. Communication through collaborative communication is an effective way to solve critical problems in underwater communication systems. Underwater sensors are often deployed in spaces that overlap with those of marine mammals, which can adversely affect them. For this reason, in this paper, a marine mammal conflict avoidance method that can be dynamically adjusted according to the channel idle time duration and sensor node demand is designed, and the derivation of the maximum occupancy time duration is performed. Meanwhile, in addition, combining the potential of reinforcement learning in adaptive management, efficient resource optimization, and solving complex problems, this study also proposes a reinforcement learning-based relay-assisted spectrum switching method (R2S), which aims to achieve a reasonable allocation of spectrum resources in relay collaborative communication systems. The experimental results show that the method proposed in this study can effectively reduce the disturbance to marine mammals while performing well in terms of conflict probability, interruption probability, and quality of service.
