Geometric Bounding Techniques for Underwater Localisation Using Range-Only Sensors
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the application of geometric bounding techniques to range-only navigation of an underwater vehicle. A geometric technique is defined to obtain a position fix of an underwater vehicle using a combination of dead-reckoning navigation and acoustic measurements of range between the underwater vehicle and a GPS equipped ship. An assessment is made of the accuracy to which navigational parameters can be estimated using these methods.

A passive underwater surveillance system performs the function of detection and localisation by utilising the acoustic emissions from the source, whilst itself remaining concealed. The conventional technique employs an array of hydrophones (measure the scalar pressure), wherein the size of the array is dependent on the desired angular resolution and the wavelength of the signal to be monitored....

Recently, data collection from seabed by means of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN) has attracted considerable attention. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are increasingly used as UWSNs in underwater missions. Events and environmental parameters in underwater regions have a stochastic nature. The target area must be covered by sensors to observe and report events. A ‘topology cont...
