Energy Priority and Current Model Based AUV Cruise Path Planning Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we study the influence of the current on the selection of the cruise path of AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle). We extended the current model into 3D space. According to this extended current model, we analyze AUV’s energy consumption under the affects of the water flow and compare it under different cruise paths. This study mainly focuses on the path optimization based on the current model and energy priority. To some extent, it provides a theoretical basis for the optimization of the AUV cruise path.

Go with the Flow: Optimal AUV Path Planning in Coastal Environments
This paper describes a novel optimum path planning strategy for long duration AUV operations in environments with time-varying ocean currents. These currents can exceed the maximum achievable speed of the AUV, as well as temporally expose obstacles. In contrast to most other path planning strategies, paths have to be defined in time as well as space. The solution described here exploits ocean c...
