<![CDATA[Wireless underwater sensor networks (UWSNs) are used for coastal area monitoring and military monitoring applications, such as tsunami prevention and target tracking. In UWSNs, jamming is considered to be a serious problem where the intruder affects the lifetime of sensor motes and impacts the performance of the packet transmission. This paper considers that the jammer device is capable of reducing battery life and preventing the trustworthy UWSN mote from communication. Considering the presence of multiple jammers, the existing resource utilization model is not effective. This work presents an efficient resource allocation design to mitigate multiple jammers in UWSNs to overcome research problems. The resource allocation (ERA) model adopts a cross-layer design and can interact in a cooperative manner using direct and hop-based communication to maximize the quality of resource use. Compared to existing resource allocation methodologies, considering the presence of multiple jammer motes, the ERA achieves a much better detection rate, resource utilization, packet drop, and energy efficiency performance.]]>
