Improving Packet Delivery Performance in Water Column Variations through LOCAN in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network

Algorithm 2

LOCAN pseudocode for UWASN variation.

Initialize the network:

For

For

=random position between given network area based on the parameter of water column

End for

Calculate fitness value based on node distance which varies according to Doppler effect and wave front

End for

F_N = Best(M_Ni)

OFN = Best(M_FN)

Current Node = Source

While Current node ≠ Destination

 Generate the Distance matrix

 Select next node in the route for optimum channel selection.

 Update and

 Update Current_node
