INTRODUCTION
 Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UW-ASN) consist of a variable number

of sensors and vehicles that are deployed to perform collaborative monitoring
tasks over a given area.
 Wireless Underwater Acoustic Networking is the enabling technology for the
applications of oceanographic data collection, pollution monitoring, offshore
exploration and tactical surveillance applications.
UW-ASN ARCHITECTURE
Two-dimensional Underwater Sensor Networks
 Uw-sinks are equipped with two acoustic transceivers, namely a horizontal and
a vertical transceiver.
 Sensors can be connected to uw-sinks via direct links or through multi-hop
paths.
 Direct links are very likely to reduce the network throughput.
 In case of multi-hop paths the data produced by a source sensor is relayed by
intermediate sensors until it reaches the uw-sink.
ARCHITECTURE FOR 2D UNDER WATER SENSOR NETWORKS
Three dimensional underwater networks
 Three-dimensional Underwater Sensor Networks are used to detect and
observe phenomena.
 In this network sensor nodes float at different depths in order to observe a
given phenomenon.
 One possible solution would be to attach each uw-sensor node to a surface
buoy.
 The buoy pushes the sensor towards the ocean surface. challenges for

Architecture for 3D UW-ASN
BASICS OF ACOUSTIC COMMUNICATIONS
 Underwater acoustic communications are mainly influenced by path loss,
noise, multi-path, Doppler spread, high and variable propagation delay.
1. PATH LOSS:
Attenuation
Geometric Spreading
2 Noise:
Man made noise
Ambient Noise
3 High delay:
The propogation speed and large propogation delay
Major challenges in the design of UW-ASN
• Battery power
• Available bandwidth
• Channel characteristics
• High bit error rates
• Underwater sensors are prone to failures

12. Advantages and Disadvantages • Advantages 1. Predict the disasters with the
system and provide efficient solutions 2. understand Impact to global environment •
Disadvantage UWSNs are expensive challenges for efficient communication in UW-
ASN 12
13. Conclusion The ultimate objective of this study is to encourage the development
of new advanced communications techniques for efficient underwater
communication and networking for enhanced ocean monitoring and exploration
applications. challenges for efficient communication in UW-ASN 13

PERIPHERALS
• Mouse, Keyboards, and Other Human Interface Devices
• Digital Cameras
• Printers
• Cameras
• Hard Drives
Advantages of Using a Wireless USB Hub
• Ease of Moving : move from place to place
• Less Mess : number of physical connections
• Increased Range : no restriction in size of devices

ARCHITECTURE FOR 2D UNDER WATER SENSOR NETWORKS
WUSB Topology
• Host initiates all the data traffic among device

• Allots time slots and data band widths to each devices
• Relationships are known as clusters
• Connections are point to point and directed between WUSB host and
WUSB devices
Pictures
Security and Device Association
• Same level of security as wired USB
• Wireless interconnect is easy to install and use
• Wired connections provide the user with implied expectations

WUSB in the Future
• The first Wireless USB implementations are in the form of discrete silicon
• This include add−in cards and dongles
• To support the technology's introduction and subsequent rapid ramp up
• Wireless future will arrive once WUSB, along with the common ultra
wideband platform.
Advantages
• First high−speed wirelesspersonal interconnect
technology
• Meet the needs of multimedia consumer electronics, PC peripherals,
and mobile devices
• This preserves the functionality of wired USB
• Performance is targeted at 480Mbps at 3 meters and 110Mbps at 10
meters.
Conclusion
• Wireless USB is a technically−superior interface technology
• The quality of a Wireless USB implementation will depend on the ability to
successfully balance high throughput and power
• A poor Wireless USB implementation will repeatedly retransmit as a result of
data errors
