Abstract
Named Data Networking (NDN) is an information centric networking paradigm designed to support future internet traffic. However, the conventional NDN communication mechanism lacks the ability to adapt the dynamic lossy underwater acoustic channel. With underwater producer and consumer mobility, NDN communication becomes more challenging. We propose an evolved NDN architecture for underwater vehicular named data networking (UV-NDN) that keeps record of personal and neighboring PIT with manager handling the interest packets and data packets. In addition, we introduce a periodic interest generation mechanism to make nodes in the close vicinity aware of the neighboring node personal PIT. Performance evaluation shows that UV-NDN outperforms conventional NDN.
