水下移动无线传感器网络研究综述

Survey on mobile underwater wireless sensor networks

水下移动传感器网络是水下机器人与水下传感器网络的结合,解决了传统水下监控网络存在的无法自动实现节点投放与回收,容易存在监测盲区以及不能动态组网等问题.按照自下而上的体系结构,对水下移动传感器网络的研究内容及发展方向进行了归纳阐述,包括水下节点设计、节点互联和动态组网,即点、线、面的层次结构;着重分析了节点移动特性对水下传感器网络的影响及相应的解决方法.虽然水下移动传感器网络的研究面临很多挑战,但它必将具有广阔的应用前景.

Mobile underwater wireless sensor networks （MUWSN） combines the research of underwater sensor networks with underwater robotics, which solves many problems existed in stable underwater sensor networks. The research contents and directions of MUWSN are presented with a down-to-up architeture, including underwater sensor nodes design, the connectivity of nodes, the dynamic configuration of networks and point-line-cover architecture. The influence of nodes mobility to underwater sensor networks and the matched sloutions are analysed emphatically. Though there are many challenges for the research of MUWSN, the excellent applications are anticipated.
