Quality of service (QoS)-aware data gathering in static-channel based underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) is severely limited due to location and time-dependent acoustic channel communication characteristics. This paper proposes a novel cross-layer QoS-aware multichannel routing protocol called QoSRP for the internet of UWSNs-based time-critical marine monitoring applications. The proposed QoSRP scheme considers the unique characteristics of the acoustic communication in highly dynamic network topology during gathering and relaying events data towards the sink. The proposed QoSRP scheme during the time-critical events data-gathering process employs three basic mechanisms, namely underwater channel detection (UWCD), underwater channel assignment (UWCA) and underwater packets forwarding (UWPF). The UWCD mechanism finds the vacant channels with a high probability of detection and low probability of missed detection and false alarms. The UWCA scheme assigns high data rates channels to acoustic sensor nodes (ASNs) with longer idle probability in a robust manner. Lastly, the UWPF mechanism during conveying information avoids congestion, data path loops and balances the data traffic load in UWSNs. The QoSRP scheme is validated through extensive simulations conducted by NS2 and AquaSim 2.0 in underwater environments (UWEs). The simulation results reveal that the QoSRP protocol performs better compared to existing routing schemes in UWSNs.

Abstract The latest research in WSNs (Wireless Sensor Network) has been exploring Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs). As the name suggests, these networks aim at providing effective communication underwater by addressing the challenges prevalent in this network. Underwater communication has found a lot of applications in ocean monitoring and underwater contamination monitoring. The issue of routing underwater is a major concern as it has to address a lot of challenges. Creating an effective routing protocol has been a constant topic of research in UASNs. We have focused on a Secure Cross-Layer Routing Protocol (SCLRP) in UASNs using Fuzzy Logic and Enhanced Algebra Homomorphic Encryption. This protocol aims at providing secure data transmission using optimized nodes that are selected from the neighboring nodes of the source node. The optimal nodes are selected by applying fuzzy rules to the available input. The selected nodes will then forward the packets to the next hop till the packet reaches the destination. The proposed protocol is an Energy Efficient Secure Fuzzy Logic based Cross –Layer design routing protocol. Our proposed protocol ensures safe transmission of data, which is the main objective of a routing protocol used in a wireless network. The routing protocol will ensure better QoS, by using a reliable encryption technique to reinforce secure routing. The protocol incorporates an enhanced Algebra Homomorphic encryption technique to help with managing the security of the transmitted data. QoS is further improved by using a cross-layer design wherein, the proposed protocol will not be expected to adjust as the data travels the different layers of the network so the protocol will be free from the confines of the standards and protocols followed in each of the layer. This flexibility will help in making our protocol perform better than the existing techniques. The SCLRP protocol is analyzed with the performance of NADIR and EEMCCP schemes to analyze its performance.

Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks offer very promising solutions to monitor the aqueous environments. Due to the distinctive characteristics of UASNs, it is very challenging to design a routing protocol that can achieve maximum data delivery ratio in the network. The main challenge is the communication medium (acoustic links) that is subject to temporary attenuation and high bit error rate (BER), which limits the throughput efficiency of the Network. Besides this, another major issue is the continuous movement of nodes due to water currents and the availability of limited resources. Due to nodes mobility distance among sensor nodes and consequently, BER varies, which have a direct impact on packet size, hence, leads to high packet loss and low data delivery ratio. To achieve a high data delivery ratio, the selection of optimal packet size is of utmost importance. Consequently, the selection of next-hop forwarding node based on optimal packet size is needed. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an adaptive routing protocol named Adaptive Packet Size Selection Based Routing (APSSR) Protocol for UASNs. APSSR determines the optimal packet size adaptively based on both varying distances between sensor nodes and BER and selects the next hop based on optimal packet size and BER. The simulation results show greater network performance in terms of Network Lifetime, Data Reception Ratio at Sink node, Average Network Delay, Packet Reception Ratio, and Packets Drop Ratio
