Advanced KNN-based cost-efficient algorithm for precision localization and energy optimization in dynamic underwater sensor networks by Nadia Shamshad, Lei Wang, Kiran Saleem, Danish Sarwr, Salil Bharany, Ahmad Almogren, Jaeyoung Choi, Ateeq Ur Rehman, Ayman Altameem

“…The effectiveness of the proposed KNN-based cost-efficient method is evaluated through real-time experiments conducted in a water tank setup and simulations using the Ns-3.37 version. Results demonstrate notable improvements in localization accuracy by optimizing the localization error rate from 4.59m to $$3.88 \times 10^{-8}$$ m, Reducing localization energy consumption rate 0.0045J in addition for the first time we have also computed the localization Time cost rate which is 0.06762s. we assumed that in real-time and in NS-3 simulations on the Aqua-sim model indicate communication speed at 1500m/s. …”
