Active opportunistic in Underwater Sensor Network

Ocean bottom sensor nodes are deemed to enable applications for oceanographic data collection pollution monitoring offshore exploration disaster prevention assisted navigation and tactical surveillance applications. Multiple Unmanned or Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (UUVs AUVs) equipped with underwater sensors will also find application in exploration of natural undersea resources and gathering of scientific data in collaborative monitoring missions.To make these applications viable there is a need to enable underwater communications among underwater devices. Underwater sensor nodes and vehicles must possess self-configuration capabilities i.e. they must be able to coordinate their operation by exchanging configuration location and movement information and to relay monitored data to an onshore station.
