Abstract

In underwater wireless sensor networks, the optimization strategies for localization might be seen as a new boon for the localization of sensor nodes (UWSNs). The techniques for optimization are those that repair the incorrect value, adapt it to the situation, and correct it. Because the algorithm could adapt to the constantly changing environment, it was widely used in terrestrial applications, and the same can be extended to the underwater environment with modifications. To address the localization issue that arises in UWSNs, the Underwater Salp Swarm Algorithm (USSA), a nature-inspired node localization algorithm, has been presented. With the help of this technique, an effort to discover a solution to the localization problem as an optimization problem is considered. The proposed algorithm is accessed in a simulated water environment. The energy is assigned to the anchor well as non-localized nodes, after deploying them in the simulated underwater network. The suggested algorithm is compared with other optimization algorithms, such as UPSO and UBOA, with reference to the computing time, localization accuracy, and the number of localized nodes. It is possible to localize a greater number of nodes in a much faster and more efficient way by considering the proposed algorithm.
