Abstract |
Deployment in underwater wireless sensor network is the major issues because underwater environment supports the 3D deployment, deployment can be affected due to the environmental conditions of the water like: water pressure, water current, acoustic channel limitations, biological conditions of the water, and underwater animal movement. In underwater environment depth controlling with long distance is also the major issue, underwater depth controlling the batteries of the nodes needs proper attentions because in underwater environment the sensor nodes cannot easily be recharged, so to prolong the battery power in underwater environment needs special mechanism to prolong the battery power of the nodes. To resolve such kind of issues the Low Weighted Distance Energy Efficient Routing (LWDE2R) is proposed. LWDE2R prolongs the battery power of the nodes through use of static courier nodes and efficient data forwarding mechanism. LWDE2R also controls the depth of the water as compare to existing routing protocols. For performance analysis, NS2.30 simulator is used. The results of LWDE2R are compared with CVBF, MCCP and DUCS, and from simulation analysis the performance of LWDE2R is higher than CVBF, MCCP, and DUCS. |
