contents In maritime wireless networks, the evaporation duct effect has been known as a preferable condition for long-range transmissions. However, how to effectively utilize the duct effect for efficient communication design is still open for investigation. In this paper, we consider a typical scenario of ship-to-shore data transmission, where a ship collects data from multiple oceanographic buoys, sails from one to another, and transmits the collected data back to a terrestrial base station during its voyage. A novel framework, which exploits priori information of the channel gain map in the presence of evaporation duct, is proposed to minimize the data transmission time and the sailing time by optimizing the ship's trajectory. To this end, a multi-objective optimization problem is formulated and is further solved by a dynamic population PSO-integrated NSGA-II algorithm. Through simulations, it is demonstrated that, compared to the benchmark scheme which ignores useful information of the evaporation duct, the proposed scheme can effectively reduce both the data transmission time and the sailing time.
