Communication Architecture for Underwater Wireless Sensor Network [PDF]
International Journal of Computer Network and Information Security, 2015 Investigations in hydrologic sciences are bounded because most of existing water surveillance methods are manual. Such systems are incapable to gather information at spatial and temporal level due to location constraints. In this paper, we present a new communication architecture for Underwater Wireless Sensor Network (UWSN) based on acoustic ...
