Abstract
The DeepBlue Protocol specifies a decentralized, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) maritime data relay architecture designed to bridge the visibility gap between high-seas regions and terrestrial monitoring stations. The system transforms a federated fleet of vessels into an opportunistic Store-Carry-Forward (SCF) substrate. Data persistence is achieved through a stateless G-TDMA scheduling algorithm and a probabilistic Bloom Filter synchronization handshake, which together ensure that data collected in remote waters is autonomously propagated through the mesh until it can be successfully offloaded to a Coastal Gateway (Sink Node).
