Abstract
- Cooperative routing is a hybrid approach utilizing routing techniques and cooperative communication to improve the communication quality of single-antenna sensor nodes. It exploits the broadcast nature of wireless medium and transmits cooperatively using nearby sensor nodes as relays. In this research, a cooperative transmission scheme is proposed for UnderWater Sensor Networks (UWSNs) to improve the network performance called ARCUN. The protocol is an energy-efficient and high-throughput routing scheme for UWSN. Potential relays are selected from a group of neighbor nodes that utilize signal-to-noise ratio and distance computation of the underwater channel. Optimal role of cooperation provides load balancing in the network and gives profound improvement in network stability period and packet delivery ratio. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
