adequate coverage is one of the main problems for distributed wireless sensor networks and the effectiveness of that highly depends on the sensor deployment scheme. given a finite number of sensors, optimizing the sensor deployment will provide sufficient sensor coverage and save power of sensors for movement to target location to adequate coverage. in this paper, we apply fuzzy logic system to...

WSN (Wireless Sensor Networks), one of the most popular topics in wireless and mobile networking, is gaining much interest as an innovative technology in the near future. Especially in UW-ASN (UnderWater-Acoustic Sensor Network), there are many potential applications that can be provided through the networks such as ocean sampling network, environment monitoring, undersea exploration, disaster ...

Localization is an important topic in the underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN) because sensor nodes are randomly scattered over a region and can get connected into a network on their own. In this paper, we proposed an improved correction localization algorithm based on wave direction spectrum for underwater wireless sensor networks. First, we use the length of anchor nodes and depth of no...

Recently, Underwater Sensor Networks (UWSNs) have attracted researchers’ attention due to the challenges and the peculiar characteristics of the underwater environment. The initial random deployment of UWSN where sensors are scattered over the area via planes or ships is inefficient, and it doesn’t achieve full coverage nor maintain network connectivity. Moreover, energy efficiency in underwate...

This paper reviews the existing localization techniques and parameters in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and few schemes are discussed in term of Terrestrial WSNs. The fundamental differences between Underwater and Terrestrial WSN are highlighted. Furthermore, the paper analyzes the few existing aquatic localization schemes and presents a discussion in two parts including general localization ...

Wireless Body Sensor Networks (WBSNs) involve a convergence of biosensors, wireless communication and networks technologies. WBSN enables real-time healthcare services to users. Wireless sensors can be used to monitor patients’ physical conditions and transfer real time vital signs to the emergency center or individual doctors. Wireless networks are subject to more packet loss and congestion. T...
