Abstract |
The research in underwater wireless sensor network is the main attractive area for the researchers due to its more valuable applications like: assisted navigation, disaster preventions, underwater biological life, searching of gold, oil/gas, minerals, diamond etc. The designing of routing to extract such kind of valuable information is one of the challenging tasks. The design of routing protocol faces 3D deployment, water pressure, water current, efficient route development, topology control, depth control, and many more issues. Beyond these issues the underwater obstacles or shadow zones during data forwarding route is also the challenging issue. During the data forwarding route if any shadow zone occurs the special mechanism is needed to overcome this issue. This research article focuses the Void Node Removal Routing (VNR) to resolve the shadow zones issue in efficient way. Void node can be occurs due to shadow zones/underwater obstacle or may be depletion of the energy, the removal of void node through VNR focuses the alternate route selection mechanism. For performance analysis the NS2.30 with AquaSim simulator is used. The performance of the VNR is compared with GEDAR and VHGOR through data success ratio. |
