PROJECT TITLE :

E-CARP: An Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for UWSNs in the Internet of Underwater Things

ABSTRACT:

With the advance of the Internet of Underwater Things, smart things are deployed under the water and kind the underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs), to facilitate the discovery of vast unexplored ocean volume. A routing protocol, which isn't expensive in packets forwarding and energy consumption, is key for sensory data gathering and transmitting in UWSNs. To handle this challenge, this paper proposes Enhanced CARP (E-CARP), that is an enhanced version of the channel-aware routing protocol (CARP) developed by S. Basagni et al., to achieve the situation-free and greedy hop-by-hop packet forwarding strategy. In general, CARP does not consider the reusability of previously collected sensory knowledge to support sure domain applications afterward, which induces knowledge packets forwarding which could not be helpful to applications. Besides, the PING-PONG strategy in CARP will be simplified for selecting the most applicable relay node at every time point, when the network topology is comparatively steady. These two research problems have been addressed by our E-CARP. Simulation results validate that our technique will decrease the Communication value significantly and increase the network capability to a sure extent.
