Book excerpt: Abstract Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN) are an active area of research and development. The underwater environment is harsh; acoustic channel characteristics such as high attenuation and absorption are an important challenge for the implementation of UWSNs. Void holes in networks, where a node can receive but cannot transmit to any node other than the sender, also present a significant challenge. This dissertation is motivated by these challenges and investigates solutions for energy efficient and void avoiding routing protocols for UWSNs. A proposed greedy routing protocol called Energy Efficient Depth-Based Opportunistic Routing (EEDOR) is designed and simulated. This protocol uses a novel holding time formula that incorporates both the priority of the candidate node and the depth difference between the packet sender and each candidate node of its forwarding set. The protocol uses a simple design that allows sensor nodes to form their forwarding sets by exchanging local information only. Nodes can collect information efficiently by listening and responding to forward request and forward reply messages. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol achieves significant energy savings as compared to popular protocols, thereby also extending network lifetime significantly. A void avoiding protocol called the called Energy Efficient Depth-Based Opportunistic Routing with Void Avoidance (EEDOR-VA) is also proposed. The novelty of this technique lies in employing a hop-count to determine paths between the source node and sink(s). Trapped and void nodes are recognized and eliminated from node forwarding sets. This protocol is shown to have a high packet delivery ratio (PDR). The protocol is evaluated using two different sets of simulation settings. Finally, the impact of the number of sinks and the sink deployment method on energy conservation and PDR is investigated. Simulation results show that using a deterministic multi-sink deployment can reduce the number of request and reply messages. As a result, the network overhead is reduced, decreasing the energy usage and increasing the PDR of the network.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] The unique properties of underwater acoustic communications, such as large and time-varying propagation delay, low and range dependent channel bandwidth, and adverse operating environments, challenge the design of an energy efficient protocol in underwater acoustic wireless sensor networks (UA-WSNs). In this dissertation, we present a family of reinforcement learning based energy-efficient protocols for UA-WSNs so that the systems are "self-adaptive" or "self-optimized" to the environment after having been deployed. We show that, due to the limited bandwidth in underwater acoustic communication channels, the energy consumption caused by collisions and retransmissions is much higher than that of its terrestrial counterparts. Therefore, the key issue of extending the lifetime of underwater sensor networks is to reduce the collisions and retransmissions. To address this issue in a single underwater acoustic channel, we model the UA-WSNs as single agent reinforcement learning systems and design an routing protocol to aid transmitters to determine the most energy efficient relay nodes. In the design of the reward function, we use the transmission power level, the neighborhood interference, and the feasible bandwidth as the main parameters for the selection of relay nodes. Extensive simulation results demonstrate that the proposed protocol achieves a remarkable energy efficiency in comparison with the Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol. For verifying the feasibility of the reinforcement learning based energy efficient protocol in multiple underwater acoustic communication channels, we improve the protocol by including the channel-related factors in the design of the reward function. In the proposed UA-WSN system, the feasible acoustic spectrum is divided into a number of sub-channels which suffer diverse and frequency dependant attenuation and noise interference. The proposed protocol helps each transmitter to determine not only an optimal relay node, but also an optimal propagation sub-channel to the optimal relay node. For the reward function of the proposed protocol, the channel-related factors are used to evaluate the quality of the sub-channels in terms of noise and attenuation level, probability of collisions, etc.. Simulation results show that the use of a multiple-channel reinforcement learning protocol manifests far better energy efficiency than a single-channel reinforcement learning protocol. But the use of a large number of sub-channels leads to performance degradation due to the extremely narrow bandwidth and low capacity of sub-channels.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) are the enabling technology for a new era of underwater monitoring and actuation applications. However, there still is a long road ahead until we reach a technological maturity capable of empowering high-density large deployment of UWSNs. To the date hereof, the scientific community is yet investigating the principles that will guide the design of networking protocols for UWSNs. This is because the principles that guide the design of protocols for terrestrial wireless sensor networks cannot be applied for an UWSN since it uses the acoustic channel instead of radio-frequency-based channel. This thesis provides a general discussion for high-fidelity and energy-efficient data collection in UWSNs. In the first part of this thesis, we propose and study the symbiotic design of topology control and opportunistic routing protocols for UWSNs. We propose the CTC and DTC topology control algorithms that rely on the depth adjustment of the underwater nodes to cope with the communication void region problem. In addition, we propose an analytical framework to study and evaluate our mobility-assisted approach in comparison to the classical bypassing and power control-based approaches. Moreover, we develop the GEDAR routing protocol for mobile UWSNs. GEDAR is the first OR protocol employing our innovative depth adjustment-based topology control methodology to re-actively cope with communication void regions. In the second part of this thesis, we study opportunistic routing (OR) underneath duty-cycling in UWSNs. We propose an analytical framework to investigate the joint design of opportunistic routing and duty cycle protocols for UWSNs. While duty-cycling conserves energy, it changes the effective UWSN density. Therefore, OR is proposed to guarantee a suitable one-hop density of awake neighbors to cope with the poor and time-varying link quality of the acoustic channel. In addition, we propose an analytical framework to study the impact of heterogeneous and on-the-fly sleep interval adjustment in OR underneath duty-cycling in UWSNs. The proposed model is aimed to provide insights for the future design of protocols towards a prolonged UWSN lifetime. The developed solutions have been extensively compared to related work either analytically or through simulations. The obtained results show the potentials of them in several scenarios of UWSNs. In turn, the devised analytical frameworks have been providing significant insights that will guide future developments of routing and duty-cycling protocols for several scenarios and setting of UWSNs.
