چکیده
This proposal describes a program of work designed to contribute to the Navy's capabilities in mastering the mine warfare problem by developing and demonstrating fundamental capabilities needed for an Autonomous Oceanographic Sampling Network (AOSN). This includes the integration of AUV, ship, and moored sensors into a network test range. This range will support the development, testing, and demonstration of network components and communication capabilities. A link between the network and the Internet will enable remote monitoring and interaction. This test range will include acoustic and RF modem links. A set of network communication links will be implemented and demonstrated in turn culminating a multi-node network. This network will provide integrated information about the state of environmental variables pertinent to mine reconnaissance tasks and also facilitate adaptive search, survey, and sampling

Acoustically Focused Oceanographic Sampling in Coastal Environments
A new oceanographic measurement concept, Acousti-cally Focused Ocean Sampling-AFOS, is presented, combining a tomographic network with small autonomous underwater vehicles. Using wireless local area network technology, the acoustic tomography data are recorded and processed in real time for achieving a low-resolution estimate of oceanographic parameters. The results are used to focus direct mea...

The long-term goals of this project are to create and demonstrate a reactive ocean survey system, capable of long-term unattended deployments in remote environments. We refer to such a system as an Autonomous Ocean Sampling Network (AOSN). The work described below is the product of a collaboration of research groups at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institut...
متن کاملAutonomous Underwater Vehicle Systems
To understand the physical and biological relationships often requires high resolution sampling far exceeding present capabilities. If spatially adaptive sampling can be developed, data resolution can be greatly improved over that presently possible with conventional sensor platforms. One technique to achieve both spatially and temporally adaptive sampling is an Autonomous Oceanographic Samplin...
متن کاملA Novel Dual Wavelength Optical Beam Attenuation Meter for Automated Underwater Vehicles (SAM)
Several compact sampling platforms have recently been developed or are gaining widespread use in Naval operations and oceanographic research. In addition to limited sensor payloads, many of these platforms are autonomous and intended for extended deployments. Sensors compatible with these platforms must therefore be compact, low power, and able to accommodate effective anti-biofouling measures....
