Abstract: The Ocean is vast as it covers around 140 million square miles, more than 75% of earth’s surface. New technologies have brought us new ways to explore this vast unexplored aquatic environment which provided us with a number of applications. Existing solution of terrestrial sensor networks cannot be applied directly to underwater sensor networks. Due to several architectural difference with respect to terrestrial ones, which are mainly due to transmission medium characteristics (sea water) and the signal employed to transmit data underwater sensor network requires wireless communication and acoustics is the primary modality of choice even though it presents a difficult channel. In this thesis we develop a simulation framework to be able to evaluate Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks with a realistic approach.
Keywords: Underwater sensor network, Acoustic communications, simulator framework, protocol stack.
