Abstract— The Ocean is a dynamic and complex environment; it is a very complicated transmission channel that can change rapidly with the environmental conditions. Hence, to avoid failure of underwater monitoring missions, it’s crucial to predict the behavior of underwater acoustic channel. In this paper, several fundamental key aspects of underwater acoustic channel are investigated. A model ch...

Underwater exploration is important for mapping out the oceans, environmental monitoring, and search and rescue, yet water represents one of the most challenging of operational environments. The CoCoRo project proposes to address these challenges using cognitive swarm intelligent systems. We present here CoCoRoSim, an underwater swarm robotics simulation used in designing underwater swarm robot...

This paper proposes the result of hardware in the loop simulation (HILS) for performance evaluation about a small attitude heading reference system (AHRS) based micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) suitable for small unmanned underwater vehicle. Unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV) have many applications in scientific, military, and commercial area due to its autonomy and the navigation system ...

In this paper we present an multi-robotic system for underwater exploration, specifically for coastal seas. The novelty of this system is its enhanced performance in underwater localization using underwater acoustic ranging and data transfer between the floats. This process is not dependent on any fixed infrastructure, which is usually a requirement for such missions. An algorithm is implemente...

Modeling and simulation (M&S) has long played an important role in developing tactics and evaluating the measure of effectiveness (MOE) for the underwater warfare system. In simulation-based acquisition, M&S technology facilitates decisions about future equipment procurements, such as a mobile decoy or a torpedo. In addition, assessment of submarine tactical development, during an engagement ag...

With the recent technological advancement in submersible systems, the research and development of underwater manipulator robot is highly desirable. This paper focuses on comparing simulation versus real-time manipulator dynamics control, and comparison of intelligent underwater manipulator-robot for effective Ocean-based research, industrial and defense applications. Software package such as MA...

Simulation system is charged with the strategy validation and dual team meets, and as the 2dimensional simulation platform for underwater robotic fish game, URWPGSim2D is the assigned platform for Chinese underwater robot contest and Robot cup underwater program. By now on URWPGSim2D, there is only static obstacles, thus short of changeableness. In order to improve the changeableness and innova...

In the paper using of the artificial neural networks for determination of coefficients of state equations of underwater vehicle’s motion in a horizontal plane and influence of neuron’s activation function for quality of underwater vehic le’s motion modelling is presented. The recurrent optimization network is used to identify parameters of the underwater vehicle’s dynamics. A structure and the ...
