This study introduces a novel chaotic search-and-rescue-optimization-based multi-hop data transmission (CSRO-MHDT) protocol for underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). The CSRO-MHDT protocol enhances energy efficiency and packet delivery ratio for UWSNs.
Area of Science:
- Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs)
- Network protocols
- Optimization algorithms
Background:
- UWSNs are crucial for applications like disaster management and environmental monitoring.
- Energy efficiency is paramount in UWSNs due to limited battery power.
- Existing routing protocols face challenges in UWSNs due to low bandwidth and environmental factors.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel energy-efficient routing protocol for UWSNs.
- To enhance data transmission reliability and network lifetime.
- To address the limitations of conventional routing techniques in underwater environments.
Main Methods:
- Development of the chaotic search and rescue optimization (CSRO) algorithm.
- Implementation of the CSRO-MHDT protocol for cluster head selection and data transmission.
- Utilizing a fitness function considering residual energy, distance, and node degree.
Main Results:
- The CSRO-MHDT protocol achieved a packet delivery ratio (PDR) of 88%, outperforming existing methods.
- Compared to EECRP (83%), FCMMFO (81%), FBCPSO (78%), EGRC (77%), and LEACH-ERE (75%).
- CSRO-MHDT demonstrated higher number of packets received (NPR) across all rounds, e.g., 3792% at 50 rounds.
Conclusions:
- The CSRO-MHDT protocol offers a significant improvement in energy efficiency and data reliability for UWSNs.
- The integration of chaotic notions into optimization algorithms can enhance network performance.
- The proposed protocol effectively addresses the unique challenges of underwater communication.
