Abstract:
Marine life and environmental monitoring of deep sea have become a major field of interest for quite a
long time because of the immeasurable region of the area of the ocean that comes with its own dynamics
and vulnerabilities. Creating the Underwater-Internet of Things (U-IoT) network model in Underwater Wireless Sensor Network (UWSN) provides the scope of ensuring proper marine life monitoring
which supports the aspects of 4th Industrial Revolution. The U-IoT network model is designed for an
automated, efficient, smart process of data transfer for both underwater and overwater communication
through acoustic waves and Radio Frequency (RF) data transfer techniques respectively. The proposed
U-IoT network model is created with an optimum number of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs)
and surface sinks in order to address Bangladesh’s overfishing problem. The network model is evaluated
by comparing different AUV and surface sink scenarios taking the South Patch region of Bay of Bengal
as the target area.
