Abstract

The wireless sensor networks are prime components in automation and help in accelerating the technology to the next level. The sensor nodes are deployed in adverse conditions to monitor and collect critical data around the environment and relay the same to the server sensor node. The underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) are prone to high danger and are designed to withstand extreme climate conditions. The UWSNs performance is evaluated by the metrics low energy consumption, high packet delivery rate (PDR), low jitter, and shortest path in transmitting the sensed data to the server sensor node (SSN). In this paper, we have proposed a virtual tunneling protocol (VTP) to increase the aforementioned factors associated with the underwater wireless sensor networks. The simulation yielded good results, and the same has been recorded here.
