Outline Introduction Related Work The ARTL Scheme Performance Evaluation Conclusion
Introduction • Underwater sensor networks(UWSNs) have been proposed for many applications: • Scientific exploration • Oceanographic data collection • Pollution monitoring • Coastline protection
Introduction (2,4,1) • Accurate node localization
Introduction • Typical localization techniques • Range-based: • Estimating the distances between beacons and ordinary nodes • Range-free: • Multilateration
Introduction • Ranged-based • Difficult to synchronize among nodes for ranging and may introduce additional communication overhead
Related Work • Three different kinds of nodes: • Base stations • Beacon nodes(s) • Ordinary nodes(l)

Conclusion The authors propose an asymmetrical round trip based localization (ARTL) algorithm that seeks to achieve node localization in large-scale UWSNs in an energy-efficient, easily implemented and accurate manner without time synchronization. Simulation results show that ARTL can greatly reduce localization energy consumption while maintaining relatively high localization accuracy compared with other localization algorithms.
