Design of energy efficient underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) routing protocol to prolong network lifetime is a challenging task because of limited battery life of sensor nodes. In this paper, we propose mobile energy efficient square routing protocol (MEES) to balance energy consumption of nodes in the network. Two mobile sinks are deployed at the farthest distance from each other. In order...
In this paper, a routing protocol, Maximum Coverage in Square field region (MCS) for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) is introduced. The overall area of the network is divided into ten sub regions and two mobile sinks (MSs) are deployed. The data is transmitted to the MS directly and mobility pattern of MS is adjusted in such a way that it covers the whole area of the network. When MS and...
Design of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) is difficult because of limited battery energy of sensor nodes. Low bandwidth and energy consumption are major problems that we face in UWSNs, due to dynamic behavior of water in underwater environment. In our scheme, circular field is divided into ten sub-regions and each region is divided into eight sectors. Two mobile sinks move to cover the...
Due to unique characteristics of underwater environment, it is difficult to achieve energy efficiency, high throughput and low bit error rate. Radio signals do not propagate well in underwater environment so acoustic signals are used for communication. Acoustic signals offer low bandwidth, high bit error rate, low throughput and high end-to-end delay. Data packets often loose their path which effect...
Under water sensor networks(UWSNs) have attracted significantly to explore natural and undersea resources and gathering scientific data in aqueous conditions. The adverse characteristics in UWSNs communication and high cost limit the sensor nodes to spare deployment, causing delay, low propagation, power efficiency and floating node mobility. This proposed protocol is developed to handle these problems...
We propose a new routing protocol MobiSink (mobile sink) for underwater sensor networks (UWSNs). We deploy the sink mobility in four horizontal regions of the network. The mobile sink moves in its own region to collect data from the transmission range sensor nodes. The transmission range of a node is calculated after fixed interval of time for mobile sink. In MobiSink nodes also take help of transmission...
In this paper, we carry-out a study of the Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism in IEEE802.11e Enhanced Distribution Coordination Function (EDCF) and how it is achieved by providing traffics with different priorities. It can perform the access to the radio channel or just simply it can considerably be declined subsequently to a variation of network dynamicity. The results of the proposed analysis show...
