ABSTRACT: Due to effectiveness of network layer on
general performance of networks, designing routing protocols is very important
for lifetime and traffic efficiency in wireless sensor networks. So in this
paper, we are going to represent an efficient and scalable version of
depth-based routing (DBR) protocol that is limited by depth divisions-policy.
In fact the new version is a network information independent routing protocol
for acoustic communications. Proposed method by use of depth clustering is able
to reduce consumed energy and end-to-end delay in dense underwater sensor
networks (DUSNs) and this issue is proved by simulation.
