On-Demand Data Transmission in Multi-Hop Cluster in Underwater Sensor Network

Day to day under water sensor network is becoming a key challenge. The under water environment is not suitable. The nodes are deployed in hostile and human inaccessible area. Maintaining the nodes and energy consumption is the important parameter to be considered. In the Reliability point, of view energy consumption should be very less. To achieve this less energy consumption, we have proposed a method. In this proposed method, the sensed data are stored in the input queue of the sensor devices and transmitted to the Cluster Head (CH), only at the time of requirement. Thereby, save the data transmission energy and also the receiving energy. As compared to frequent data transmission and selective data transmission, we have saved approximately 2% of consumed energy using this proposed method.
