A Tabu Search Algorithm for Minimum Cost Localization Problem in Underwater Sensor Networks  

Jang, Kil-woong (Department of Data Information, Korea Maritime and Ocean University)
Abstract
All sensor nodes generally determine their positions using anchor nodes that are located in underwater sensor networks. This paper proposes a Tabu search algorithm to determine the minimum number of anchor nodes for the location of all sensor nodes in underwater sensor networks. As the number of the sensor nodes increases in the network, the amount of calculation that determines the number of anchor nodes would be too much increased. In this paper, we propose a Tabu search algorithm that determines the minimum number of anchor nodes within a reasonable computation time in a high dense network, and propose an efficient neighborhood generating operation of the Tabu search algorithm for efficient search. The proposed algorithm evaluates those performances through some experiments in terms of the minimum number of anchor nodes and execution time. The proposed algorithm shows 5-10% better performance than the conventional algorithm.
