چکیده

Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) is much more attractive area for the researchers due to its versatile applications like tactical surveillance, assisted navigation, equipment monitoring, oceanography data collection, pollution monitoring, offshore exploration, disaster prevention and seismic monitoring. The researchers are also collecting the scientific data from underwater environment for observing mission. Due to the continuous node movement in underwater environment creates the majority of the problems for localization. Localization is one of the major issues in underwater environment. This survey paper focuses the different valuable localization schemes which focus the open issues and challenges for researchers.

Localization Techniques and Their Challenges in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks

Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) are widely used to explore aqueous environment. In UWSN, determining the location of sensor nodes is a critical issue. Sensed data is meaningful only when sensing node is localized. There are many techniques available for localization in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) but they are not applicable in UWSN. GPS signals cannot be used underwater for locali...

On Wormhole Attacks in Under-Water Sensor Networks: A Two-Tier Localization Approach

Under-Water Sensor Network (UWSN) is a novel networking paradigm to explore the uninhabited oceans. However, the characteristics of this new network, such as huge propagation delay, floating node mobility, and limited acoustic link capacity, are significantly different from land-based sensor networks. In this paper we show that underwater denial-of-service attack imposes great threats to any UW...

Simulation Tools for Underwater Sensor Networks: A Survey

In underwater sensor network(UWSN) research, it is highly expensive to deploy a complete test bed involving complex network structure and data links to validate a network protocol or an algorithm. This practical challenge points to the need of a simulation environment which can reproduce the actual underwater scenario without the loss of generality. Since so many simulators are proposed for UWS...
