SLSMP: Time Synchronization and Localization Using Seawater Movement Pattern in Underwater Wireless Networks
Time synchronization and localization in underwater environment are challenging due to high propagation delay, time measurement error, and node mobility. Although synchronization and localization depend on each other and have the similar process, they have been usually handled separately. In this pa...

| description | Time synchronization and localization in underwater environment are challenging due to high propagation delay, time measurement error, and node mobility. Although synchronization and localization depend on each other and have the similar process, they have been usually handled separately. In this paper, we suggest time synchronization and localization based on the semiperiodic property of seawater movement, called SLSMP. Firstly, we analyze error factors in time synchronization and localization and then propose a method to handle those errors. For more accurate synchronization, SLSMP controls the transmission instant by exploiting the pattern of seawater movement and node deployment. Then SLSMP progressively decreases the localization errors by applying the Kalman filter or averaging filter. Finally, INS (inertial navigation system) is adopted to relieve localization error caused by node mobility and error propagation problem. The simulation results show that SLSMP reduces time synchronization error by 2.5 ms and 0.56 ms compared with TSHL and MU-Sync, respectively. Also localization error is lessened by 44.73% compared with the single multilateration. |
