Abstract

The applications of Underwater Sensor Networks are plenty and varied. Acoustic sensor nodes and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles are the main constituents of such a network. But it is required to analyze the performance of such a network using a simulation program. Simulation of the network will help in reaching optimum number of nodes required for a defined area. Further it will help in the analysis of deployment of nodes. This paper describes a simulation program which has been developed using Visual Basic.
