Abstract:
Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) based on acoustic communications attract interest as an enabling technology of maritime border surveillance. However, due to differences in environments, many of the techniques used in typical terrestrial wireless communications are not directly applicable to UWSNs. Of the challenges, designing a secured and energy-efficient UWSN takes the greatest significance for application to maritime surveillance applications. To provide an overview on the UWSN technology, this paper (i) characterizes key technical challenges that are drawn in UWSNs and (ii) discusses methodologies to improve security and energy efficiency of an UWSN.
