Abstract
Ensuring the freshness of high Value of Information (VoI) data has a significant practice meaning for marine observations and emergencies. The traditional forward method with an auv-aid is used to ensure the freshness of high VoI data. However, the methods suffer from two issues: an insufficient high VoI data throughput and random forwarding for cluster heads (CHs). The AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) with limited energy cannot meet the demand for the random generation of high VoI data. Low VoI data packets compete with high VoI data packets for channels, resulting in an insufficient high VoI data throughput and a low freshness. To address the above issues, we propose the Data Access Channel Scheme based on High Value of Information (DACS-HVOI), which is suitable for prioritizing the transmission packets with a high VoI. First, according to the level of VoI, the packets are divided into K classes, and the packets that are collected and forwarded by the AUV are defined as the highest K+1 class. Second, based on prior knowledge in the network, a Markov chain algorithm-based method is employed to predict which nodes should preferentially use the channel, to avoid conflict between a low and high VoI. Third, based on the stochastic fluid theory, a multilevel queueing system for CHs are constructed to avoid random forwarding. Last, compared with state-of-art protocols, experimental simulation shows that the proposed scheme has a low latency and high network throughput, while improving the throughput of high-VoI packets and ensuring the priority transmission of high-VoI packets.
