RIASSUNTO

Long-term monitoring of Indus River Dolphin (IRD) is critical to enable and make informed decisions on current habitat. However, existing literature on underwater acoustic sensor network (UASN) based sensing and activation is limited. Most recently canal entrapment has lacked to recover 2–7 dolphins per year. Coupled with the need to conserve energy, this paper introduces IRD Habitat Monitoring System (IRDHMS). IRDHMS aims to monitor IRD in different phases using energy-aware mechanism. It performs detection and generates automated response based on speed and location of animal species. The proposed model effectively monitors IRD within sensing boundary, minimizes observation cost using in-situ processing and reusing existing infrastructure. It also aims to perform as acoustic guide to prevent dolphin from being entrapped in artificial canals also referred to as canal entrapment. This paper is the first known attempt on prevention of canal entrapment using energy-aware sense and react mechanism as applied on Indus Blind Dolphin as an extended cellular based acoustic sensor network. In energy-awareness perspective, results show that IRDHMS performs better as compared to conventional networks by conserving approximately 6.5% energy per click frame.
