Abstract: The Acoustic Signals Used As Physical Medium For Communication In Under Water Wireless Sensor Networks. Due To the Use of Acoustic Signals in UWSN, It Have The Distinguish Characteristics. The Different Types of Parameter in UWSNS Are Including High Propagation Delay, Low Bandwidth High Error Rates and Significantly Different from Wireless Sensor Networks. Hence, Designing Communication Protocols, Particularly An Efficient Routing Protocol For UWSN Is A Challenging Issue. Routing Protocols Can Take Advantage Of The Localization Of Sensor Nodes. However, The Localization Itself Is Not Impeccable In UWSN. In This Paper, Therefore Propose An Enhanced Routing Protocol Named MRP (Multi-Layered Routing Protocol) For UWSN. MRP Utilizes Super Nodes In Order To Eliminate The Need Of Localization. MRP Works In Two Phases: Layering Phase And Data Forwarding Phase. During Layering Phase, Different Layers Are Formed Around The Super Nodes. In Data Forwarding Phase, Data Packets Are Forwarded Based On These Layers. Through Simulation Study Using MATLAB Simulator, To Prove That MRP Contributes Significant Performance Improvements Against A Deputy Routing Protocols.
