Abstract :
Underwater wireless sensor networks play a prominent role in monitoring continuously the undersea oil fields. To find varying changes in reservoirs of oil and gas, we are having many seismic methods. For continuous monitoring of marine environment (or) undersea oil fields (or) offshore surveillance, the deployed nodes whose energy got depleted should be replaced. Replacing a node individually when energy is depleted, the replacement cost will be very high. So, by replacing all the nodes at a time by using an integrated routing and node replacement scheme is the best thing to minimize the node replacement cost. This paper developed RBM based faulty node detection approach that can be applied to underwater sensor networks to increase lifetime of UWSN and maintenance of network with minimal cost by identifying determined rate of failed nodes
