本文介绍了一个用于水下传感器网络的网络模拟器Aqua-Sim。AQUA-SIM基于网络模拟器NS-2，它遵循面向对象的设计风格，所有网络实体都以类的形式实现。AQUA-SIM有效地模拟了水声信道的衰落和长延时水声网络中的碰撞行为。此外，Aqua-Sim支持三维网络部署，并提供丰富的基本和高级协议集。通过几个案例研究，我们证明了Aqua-Sim可以以高保真度和灵活性“再现”真实世界。
In this paper, we present a network simulator, Aqua-Sim, for underwater sensor networks. Aqua-Sim is based on NS-2, one of the most widely used network simulators, and it follows object-oriented design style and all network entities are implemented as classes. Aqua-Sim effectively simulates the attenuation of underwater acoustic channels and the collision behaviors in long delay acoustic networks. Moreover, Aqua-Sim supports three-dimensional network deployment and provides a rich set of basic and advanced protocols. Through several case studies, we show that Aqua-Sim can "reproduce" the real world with high fidelity and flexibility.
