    Machine Learning Approaches for Underwater Sensor Network Parameter Prediction
    (Elsevier, 2023-05) Uyan, Osman Gokhan; Akbas, Ayhan; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs) have recently attracted scientists due to its wide range of real -world applications. However, there are design challenges in UASNs, such as limited network lifetime and low communication reliability provoked by the constrained battery supply of sensors and harsh channel conditions in the underwater environments. To meet communication reliability requirements, packet-duplication and multi -path routing algorithms have been recommended in the literature. Furthermore, underwater sensors may convey sensitive data, which must be masked to avoid eavesdropping attempts. To improve network security, cryptographic encryption is the most widely used method. Nevertheless, data encryption needs computations to cipher the data, which consumes extra energy, resulting in a cutback in the life span of the network. To address these challenges, an optimization model has been proposed to evaluate the impacts of multi-path routing, packet duplication, encryption, and data fragmentation on the lifetime of the UASNs. However, the solution time of the proposed optimization model is quite high, and sometimes it cannot come up with feasible solutions. To this end, in this study, different regression and neural network methods have been proposed to predict network param-eters and energy consumptions of underwater nodes as supplementary methods to optimization models. Per-formance evaluations show that the proposed methods yield remarkably accurate predictions and can be used for energy consumption prediction in UASNs.

    A Reliable and Secure Multi-Path Routing Strategy for Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks
    (Elsevier, 2022-07) Uyan, Osman Gokhan; Akbas, Ayhan; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs) have nowadays become an attractive topic in scientific studies and commercial applications. An important challenge in UASN's design is the limited network lifetime and low reliability caused by the limited battery energy of sensor nodes and harsh channel conditions in underwater environments. In addition, sensor nodes may generate sensitive data, which needs to be concealed. To this end, cryptographic encryption is a commonly used method to cipher a data before transmission to maintain security. However, encryption methods require additional computation and extra energy, which causes a decrease in the network lifetime. To this end, transmitting fragmented data through multiple paths can be used as a security countermeasure, in conjunction with encryption against silent listening attacks. To address these challenges, in this study, an optimization framework has been developed to analyze the effects of multi-path routing, packet duplication, encryption and data fragmentation on network lifetime. In addition to an optimal solution, Simulated Annealing, Golden Section Search and Genetic Algorithm-based heuristic methods have been developed. Performance results show that the proposed approach jointly solves the problem of UASN lifetime maximization, while providing network reliability and security.
