Marine data communications still look for a novel data communication system at sea because of the restriction of bandwidths and costs of current carriers. In order to make the most efficient use of the broadband land carriers at sea, this paper proposes a routing scheme (MCS-NTC) at a marine MANET model. The routing scheme optimizes the route by choosing optimal nodes and carriers among the traditional and land carriers based on normalized transmission characteristics of applications and carriers. The performance is compared with the max-win method (OMH-MW) scheme considering the specific values of transmission characteristics. The result shows that our scheme derives more efficient routes than the previous one in terms of the transmission characteristics such as bandwidth, cost, delay, the number of hops and carriers.
