Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The author should clarify the following issues:

1) The contribution of this paper should be expressed in more detail. I suggest the author rewrite lines 53-57.

2) Figure 1 should clearly express the basic process of routing under the SDN model. I suggest that the flow of this figure be clearer. The whole routing is distributed on buoy, including the basic process of SDN. The author should further refine it. See lines 159-167 for details.

3)Please keep the style of all mathematical expressions uniform, such as r (0-1) in line 417, the unit kpbs or Kbps in the paper.

Reviewer 2 Report

A software-defined routing scheme based on fuzzy logic for underwater acoustic networks has been proposed in the manuscript, where two minimum spanning tree algorithms based on fuzzy path optimization and fuzzy cut-set optimization has been developed in different network scales. My comments are as follows:

The contribution of the manuscript should be further highlighted.

More simulation results should be provided.

It should be explained whether proposed algorithms could reach the global optimal solutions.

More explanations on Fig. 11 should be formulated.

Reviewer 2 Report

All comments raised have been well replied. I think the current version could be considered for publication.
