  1. 21. Development of an underwaterruler using an AUV-deployedbeacon and Matched filter CFARdetector

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Yaolin Ge; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Our ocean covers more than 70% of our planet’s surface. It is a huge reservoir continuously supplying us with enormousvaluable resources. The autonomous aquaculture, deep sea mining, subsea oil / gas exploitation and marine biology etc.,are the increasingly important driving forces for the development of underwater robotics. READ MORE

  3. 22. Optimal Control Model for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gustav Holm; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The main goal with this thesis was to develop an optimal control model for anautonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) and evaluate whether reference trackingusing Model Predictive Control (MPC) based on a linear dynamics modeldescribing all six degrees of freedom (DOF) is a suitable method for waypointnavigation. MPC is an advanced receding horizon optimal control method capableof including constraints in the optimization. READ MORE

  4. 23. Route Planning and Design of Autonomous Underwater Mine Reconnaissance Through Multi-Vehicle Cooperation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Jakob Hanskov Palm; [2020]
    Keywords : autonomous underwater vehicle; AUV; multi-vehicle cooperation; route planning; mine reconnaissance; travelling salesman problem; TSP; genetic algorithm; simulated annealing; dubins path;

    Abstract : Autonomous underwater vehicles have become a popular countermeasure to naval mines. Saab’s AUV62-MR detects, locates and identifies mine-like objects through three phases. By extracting functionality from the AUV62-MR and placing it on a second vehicle, it is suggested that the second and third phases can be performed in parallel. READ MORE

  5. 24. Automatic Tuning of Motion Control System for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Abstract : The interest for marine research and exploration has increased rapidly during the past decades and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) have been found useful in an increased amount of applications. The demand for versatile platform AUVs, able to perform a wide range of tasks, has become apparent. READ MORE

  6. 25. Machine Learning for Inferring Depth from Side-scan Sonar Images

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Yiping Xie; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Underwater navigation using Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), which is significant for marine science research, highly depends on the acoustic method, sonar. Typically, AUVsare equipped with side-scan sonars and multibeam sonars at the same time since they both have their advantages and limitations. READ MORE
