In the paper, POCA-CDMA-MAC is proposed for UWASNs. It utilizes a round-robin method and CDMA technology to reduce collisions of packets. Goal
Assumption Sink can receive packets from multiple neighbors at the same time Routes will be built All sensor nodes are equipped with a half-duplex, omni-directional transceiver Network environment

In the proposed MAC protocol prevent collision of packets and the length of the spreading sequence codes is shortened by using round-robin method CDMA technology Each node encodes its packets with a spreading sequence, so the sink can receive packets from multiple neighbors at the same time.
