Description
Summary:Autonomous Under Water Sensor Networks UWSNs form distributed amorphous computing environments. Efficient resolution for an unreachable UWSN which includes failure-prone nodes will require strategies that are as simple as possible in computations and local communications, to facilitate self-organization. In this paper, we propose a self organizing localization algorithm for localization in distributed UWSN. Unlike in terrestrial positioning, Global Positioning System GPS do not work efficiently for underwater scenario. Also available localization schemes are not well suited for deep underwater. We propose an efficient localization technique for underwater which also eliminates errors encountered during localization process. The proposed localization algorithm and localization method which works for terrestrial and underwater is extensively simulated. The results show that our proposed localization technique performs better.
