Abstract: Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) have a wide range of applications for monitoring the ocean and exploring the offshore environment. Sensor nodes are typically dispersed throughout the area of interest at different depths in these networks. Sensor nodes on the seabed must use a routing protocol in order to communicate with surface-level nodes. The suitability assessment considers network resources, application requirements, and environmental factors. By combining these factors, a platform for resource-aware routing strategies can be created that meet the needs of different applications in dynamic environments. Numerous challenges and problems are associated with UWSNs, including the lack of battery power, instability of topologies, a limited bandwidth, long propagation times, and interference from the ocean. These problems can be addressed through the design of routing protocols. The routing protocol facilitates the transfer of data between source and destination nodes. Data aggregation and UWSN protocols are widely used to achieve better outcomes. This paper describes an energy-aware algorithm for data aggregation in UWSNs that uses the improved ACO (Ant Colony Optimization) algorithm to maximize the packet delivery ratio, improve the network lifetime, decrease end-to-end delay, and use less energy.

Keywords: UWSNs; routing; data aggregation; energy efficiency; ant colony optimization algorithm
