摘 要：Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASN) based on the advances in underwater data collection and observing systems may play an important role in oceanographic research. But many unique features of UASN pose challenge on development of reliable and secure data transport to overcome harsh aquatic communication conditions. In this paper, we use multi-path routing to address secure and reliable transmission issue named as SRMR. There are two contributions in the area of secure and reliable transmission control protocols for UASN: (1) Forward Error Correction (FEC) erasure coding employed in multi-path routing is used to guarantee reliable transmission resistant to frequent acoustic error;(2) Weighted Threshold Secret Sharing (WTSS) is used to guarantee secure transmission resistant to malicious attack, and one message is split into multiple shares and then delivers the message shares to the sink node via multiple independent paths instead of using single one path. Recent researches have addressed secure transmission or reliable transmission scheme but these two aspects are independent, therefore, to our knowledge, design a secure and reliable compatible routing scheme for UASN is the first research in publish. Therefore, our proposed SRMR scheme provides a novel approach to guarantee reliable and secure transmission in harsh acoustic communication channel. The results verified the performance of this proposed SRMR scheme through simulation, and the simulation confirms the result from analytical study.
