FOREWORD
1) ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission)
form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC
participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the
respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees
collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental,
in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC and ISO on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested IEC and ISO National bodies.
3) IEC and ISO documents have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC and
ISO National bodies in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of
IEC and ISO documents is accurate, IEC and ISO cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used
or for any misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC and ISO National bodies undertake to apply IEC and
ISO documents transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any
divergence between any IEC and ISO document and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be
clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC and ISO do not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC and ISO marks of conformity. IEC and ISO are not
responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this document.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC and ISO or their directors, employees, servants or agents including individual
experts and members of its technical committees and IEC and ISO National bodies for any personal injury,
property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including
legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this ISO/IEC document or any
other IEC and ISO documents.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this document. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this document.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this ISO/IEC document may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC and ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/IEC 30171-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 41: Internet of Things and Digital Twin,

INTRODUCTION
Underwater network can play a major role in the underwater environment because
approximately three quarters of the Earth is covered by water. Underwater network is important
to deploy various underwater applications and services such as finding underwater pipeline
leakage, detecting underwater climatic changes, monitoring water pollution levels, discovering
underwater natural resources, monitoring and finding underwater intruders, performing strategic
surveillance, and so on. Underwater network faces challenges due to constrained and time
varying underwater environment, maintaining both stationary and mobile nodes, limited battery
power, and managing a large number of sensors. Novel underwater communication methods
are brought by emerging technologies to overcome these challenges. Base-station based
underwater wireless acoustic networks (B‑UWANs) can provide efficient communication and
deployment in constrained underwater environment. B‑UWAN follows centralized management
to improve communication performance with a large number of sensors, stationary and mobile
nodes, and to provide longer battery life.
This document describes the overview and requirements appropriate to the B‑UWAN under the
constrained underwater environment.
