Techniques for Deep Sea Near Bottom Survey Using an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports the development and at-sea deployment of a set of algorithms that have enabled our autonomous underwater vehicle, ABE, to conduct near-bottom surveys in the deep sea. Algorithms for long baseline acoustic positioning, terrain-following, and automated nested surveys are reported.

Robotic tools for deep water archaeology: Surveying an ancient shipwreck with an autonomous underwater vehicle
The goals of this field note are twofold. First, we detail the operations and discuss the results of the 2005 Chios ancient shipwreck survey. This survey was conducted by an international team of engineers, archaeologists and natural scientists off the Greek island of Chios in the northeastern Aegean Sea using an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) built specifically for high-resolution site in...
متن کاملIdentification of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Dynamic Using Extended Kalman Filter with ARMA Noise Model
In the procedure of designing an underwater vehicle or robot, its maneuverability and controllability must be simulated and tested, before the product is finalized for manufacturing. Since the hydrodynamic forces and moments highly affect the dynamic and maneuverability of the system, they must be estimated with a reasonable accuracy. In this study, hydrodynamic coefficients of an autonomous un...
متن کاملAdvances in Underwater Robot Vehicles for Deep Ocean Exploration: Navigation, Control, and Survey Operations
This paper reports recent advances and open problems in navigation, control, and survey methodologies for underwater robotic vehicles. First, the technical challenges of underwater navigation are discussed. Second, an acoustic navigation system combining bottom-lock doppler sonar and time-ofight long-baseline (LBL) navigation techniques, recently reported by the Authors, is reviewed. The perfor...
متن کاملAutonomous Underwater Vehicle Hull Geometry Optimization Using a Multi-objective Algorithm Approach
Abstarct In this paper, a new approach to optimize an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) hull geometry is presented. Using this methode, the nose and tail of an underwater vehicle are designed, such that their length constraints due to the arrangement of different components in the AUV body are properly addressed. In the current study, an optimal design for the body profile of a torpedo-shaped...
متن کاملبازرسی خطوط انتقال نفت و گاز زیر دریا بوسیله ربات زیرسطحی با بردار رانش متغیر جدید
This paper presents a special underwater robot for subsea pipelines inspection which is used to transport extracted oil and gas from oil platforms to onshore facilities. Due to the high pressure in the deep sea and the long pipelines, it is impossible to inspection by divers. Therefore underwater robot can be used to solve this problem. This paper investigate a hovering type of underwater vehic...
