Abstract: Considering the unique characteristics of underwater acoustic sensor networks (UWASNs),this paper proposed a Multi-population Firefly based Routing (MFR) protocol to ensure that data packets can be correctly and efficiently forwarded in UWASNs.Firstly,we presented the network model of our UWASNs.And then,we designed three kinds of fireflies and their coordination rules in order to improve the self-adaptability of building,selecting and optimization of routing path.We demonstrated through simulations that our routing protocol outperforms traditional protocols in packet delivery ratio,end-to-end delay and network throughput under the same circumstances.

Key words: Underwater acoustic sensor networks,Multi-population firefly,Routing protocol
