Modelling and Simulation of Underwater Low-Power Wake-Up Systems

Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSN) have become an important area of research due to its many possible applications. One example are the long-term monitoring applications were the nodes only need to be awake during a small fraction of time. This kind of applications can greatly benefit from low-power, wake-up systems. However, despite the fact that the simulations can greatly improve the development time of new algorithms and features, optimizing their performance, up until today there is no wake-up system model available.
