Towards Efficient Sink Mobility in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract: The unique characteristics of underwater environment such as long propagation delay, limited bandwidth, energy-constraint and non-uniform topology are big challenges in designing a routing protocol for underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). In this paper, a novel routing scheme is proposed through which two mobile sinks are used for efficient collection of sensed data packets. Moreover, a new metric "Mobile Sink Utility Ratio (MUR)" is also introduced that helps in measuring the usage of mobile sink in t… Show more

“…So, the position of the underwater relay nodes is varied and checked for optimal deployment, so as to reduce the number of underwater relay nodes (RNs) needed for deployment. Therefore, the objective function is adapted for underwater scenarios, as expressed in Equation (1).…”

“…The widely growing application domains for underwater sensor networks (UWSNs) have attracted potential attention in R&D from the Internet of Things (IoT)-oriented industries and academia [1][2][3]. The growing domains include border security-centric military applications [4,5], energy and cost-centric…”

“…The comparison of the performances of LBRP, EEDBR [4] and VBF [2] in terms of network lifetime is illustrated in Figure 5 It is determined that LBRP offers improved performance over EEDBR within the perspective of network [20] period of time. LBRP exceeds the network period of time of VBF, EEDBR as a result of VBF invariably chooses the nodes within an exceedingly mounted vector, and as a result, a sensing element node [21] is also selected once more and once more to forward knowledge.…”
