Abstract

The importance of water resources is highly concerned. Underwater Networks find different application in seismic monitoring, pollution monitoring, mine reconnaissance and undersea exploration. The network consists of significant number of sensor nodes deployed at different depths throughout the area of interest. Specific properties of underwater medium such as limited bandwidth, high propagation delay, high bit error rates and limited power are the major challenges. The proposed routing protocol performs route discovery and route maintenance phase which tries to minimize the network data and packet collision. A low overhead routing protocol reduces the routing overhead by having a lower cost route maintenance technique than existing protocols. So that the performance of proposed routing protocols is compared with two most existing routing protocols, thus measured in terms of network throughput, packet delivery ratio, average end to end delay and control overhead. We will use the NS2.34 simulator for analyzing the routing protocol.
