Abstract
This paper investigates the cross-layer design problem with the goal of maximizing the network lifetime for energy-constrained underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). We first jointly consider link scheduling, transmission power and transmission rate in a proposed optimization problem with the adoption of time division multiple access (TDMA) schedules. Then, we propose an iterative algorithm to solve the optimization problem. It alternates between (1) link scheduling and (2) computation of transmission powers and transmission rates. In fact, the convergence of such iterative algorithm can be mathematically and empirically supported. We evaluate our algorithm for several network topologies. Extensive simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach.
