Abstract:
Following the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) approach, we have modeled and implemented a planar trajectory planning and tracking controller designed for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles or Autonomous Surface Vessels (AUVs/ASVs). Our approach covers steps such as the requirement, analysis, design and implementation to model and realize a controller for most standard AUV/ASV platforms. It also allows the designed elements to be customizable and re-usable in the development of new applications of AUV/ASV controllers. The paper describes step-by-step the development lifecycle of planar trajectory-tracking controller for AUVs/ASVs. Based on this approach, a horizontal trajectory-tracking controller of a miniature autonomous submerged vehicle is completely developed and successfully taken on trial trip.

Abstract:
A hovering-type autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) capable of cruising at low altitudes and observing the seafloor using only mounted sensors and payloads was developed for sea-creature survey. The AUV has a local area network (LAN) interface for an additional payload that can acquire navigation data from the AUV and transmit the target value to the AUV. In the handling process of the state flow of an AUV, additional payloads can control the AUV position using the transmitted target value without checking the AUV condition. In the handling process of the state flow of an AUV, additional payloads can control the AUV position using the transmitted target value without checking the AUV condition. In this research, water tank tests and sea trials were performed using an AUV equipped with a visual tracking system developed in other laboratories. The experimental results proved that additional payload can control the AUV position with a standard deviation of 0.1 m.

Abstract:
To reduce the cooperative positioning error and improve the navigation accuracy, a single master–slave AUV cooperative navigation method is proposed in this paper, which mainly focuses on planning the optimal path of the master AUV by the time difference (TD) method, under the premise that the path of the slave AUV has been planned. First, the model of multi-AUV cooperative navigation is established, and the observable problem of the system is analyzed. Second, for the single master–slave AUV cooperative navigation system, a Markov decision process (MDP)-based multi-AUV cooperative navigation model is established, and the master AUV path planning method is designed based on the TD method. Finally, the extended Kalman filter (EKF) and unscented Kalman filter (UKF) nonlinear filtering algorithms are applied to simulate and verify the algorithm that is proposed in this paper. The results show that the theoretical positioning error of the slave AUV can be controlled to about 3.2m by planning the path of the master AUV using the TD method. This method can not only reduce the observation error and positioning error of the slave AUV during the whole cooperative navigation process, but also keep the relative measurement distance between the master AUV and the slave AUV within an appropriate range.

Abstract:
In order to improve the depth performance of AUV in parking, a PSO-BP algorithm for the depth control is presented. The algorithm can use the standard particle swarm (PSO) as BP neural network learning method, and which can be evolved in the AUV depth adaptive control. The adaptive controller has adopted the double neural network unit. One of controllers is made use the input terminal to output control quantity on the basis of current displacement and vertical acceleration of the AUV. The other can be recognized on-line by the AUV model identifier. The numerical simulations are given to verify the AUV depth adaptive control by the controller. The results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve the AUV depth control performance. The convergence speed of AUV depth control is 4.5 times than the PID algorithm, so the efficiency of the AUV depth is vastly perfected.

Abstract:
This study proposes a simultaneous localization method of a group of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) based on one-way signals to realize distributed oceanographic surveys. Each AUV group consists of a single high-performance AUV (parent AUV) and the other AUVs (child AUVs). The child AUVs estimate their states (position and heading) based on the parent AUV as a positioning reference. By assuming a situation in which many AUV groups are deployed, the child AUVs can receive positioning signals from multiple parent AUVs. Although only the direction information of the parent AUV can be obtained from a signal from one parent AUV, the child AUVs can estimate their states by receiving signals from different parent AUVs. Sea experiments were conducted using an autonomous buoy and an AUV. The effectiveness of the proposed method was evaluated through a navigation simulation based on the sensor data obtained from the experiments.

Abstract:
The new path planning method for AUV group moved in the " leader-followers" mode in a desired formation in an unknown environment with obstacles is proposed in paper. In this case one AUV plays role of AUV-leader, which has information about the mission and plans a safe trajectory of its movement, depending on its purpose and detected obstacles. AUV-followers must move behind the leader, in accordance with their assigned place in formation, using information about the current position of the leader, received via acoustic communication channels, and information about their distances to obstacles, detected by their onboard rangefinders. Due to the low bandwidth of acoustic communication channels, there is a problem of matching the position of the AUV-followers during obstacles avoidance. It is necessary to avoid collisions between AUV of group. This problem is solved by means of the preliminary forming for each follower of the only possible trajectory of movement inside formation which will provide it safe movement relatively other followers when this AUVfollower moves around detected obstacle. This approach allows do not coordinate the current position of the AUV-followers relative to other AUV of group if a high-precision control system is used, and as a result it does not require additional data exchange between the AUV group. In this paper, an approach to the forming of AUV-follower trajectories inside AUV formation and the method of forming the desired position of the AUV-followers on these trajectories are proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by the results of mathematical modeling.

Abstract:
A small modular autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) offers several benefits including enhanced mobility, cost-effectiveness, compact and portable structure, and small size. This paper proposes a comprehensive design and implementation approach for a small modular AUV, named as ARMs1.0, utilizing cutting-edge 3D printing technology. The main cabin shell of the AUV features a modular design and is manufactured using 3D printing technology. The control module and sensing equipment are installed in a sealed compartment. To achieve forward, pitching, and yawing motions, the AUV is equipped with ducted propeller and four independent rudders. The modular approach in AUV design has been implemented, considering both the main cabin shell as well as the subsections and segments of the AUV. Additionally, a centralized control system architecture design is developed based on the specific tasks of the AUV. The composition and functions of key units are described in detail, and an autonomous depth-tracking control strategy is formulated. Based on the experimental results for AUV motion in horizontal and vertical planes, including autonomous depth tracking tests, the ARMs1.0 AUV demonstrates the capability to successfully perform required maneuvering tasks. The designed small modular AUV has achieved accurate depth tracking, precise heading following and exhibits excellent maneuverability.

Abstract:
During the implementation of time-consuming tasks such as underwater observation or detection, AUV has to face a difficult and urgent problem that its working duration is greatly shortened by the limited energy stored in the battery device. To solve the power problem, a docking station is installed underwater for AUV charging its battery. However, to realize the automatic underwater charging of AUV via a docking station, the accurate and efficient completion of underwater homing and docking is required for AUV. Underwater automatic homing and docking system is of great significance to improve work efficiency and prolong the endurance of AUV save cost. In this paper, a unified approach that involves such as task planning, guidance and control design, thrust allocation has been proposed to provide a complete solution to the problem of homing and docking of an over-actuated AUV. The task-based hybrid target point/line planning and following strategy are proposed for AUV homing and docking. At the beginning of homing, AUV is planned to follow a straight line via the line of sight (LoS) method. Afterward, AUV starts to follow multiple predefined target points until reaching the docking station. At the final stage of docking (within 10 m), a dedicated computer vision algorithm is applied to detect a newly designed LED light array fixed on the docking station to provide accurate guidance for the AUV to dock. The sliding mode control technique is used for the motion control of the AUV allowing robustness. As the AUV configured with eight thrusters is over-actuated, the problem of the thrust allocation is very important and successfully solved using the quadratic programming (QP) optimization method. Finally, the simulations of homing and docking tasks using the AUV are accomplished to verify the proposed approach.

Abstract:
Real multi-Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) cooperative systems operate in complicated marine environments. The interaction between a multi-AUV cooperative system and its marine environment will affect the reliability of the system. Current is an important influencing factor of multi-AUV cooperative systems. A reliability index of multi-AUV cooperative systems known as System Reliable Probability (SRP) is proposed in this study. A method to calculate SRP is introduced, and the influence of current on SRP is discussed in detail. Current is considered an attack source, and the degree of its influence on SRP is calculated. As an example, the performance of this method is shown on two multi-AUV cooperative systems. Results show that the influence of the same current environment on different structures of the multi-AUV cooperative systems differs. This result provides a reference for the structure selection of multi-AUV systems. This study provides a practical method to estimate the reliability of multi-AUV cooperative systems.

In this paper, an high altitude air-launched automatic underwater vehicles (AL-AUV) is designed based on the traditional torpedo-like AUV, REMUS. And an additional ex-range gliding wings unit is assembled on the top of AUV, which enable the AUV to be dropped at high altitude and gliding long distance to reach the signed investigating ocean field. The controllable surface on the wings also enhanced the controllability and flexibility of AUV gliding through the air and the ability against the influence of airflow interference. The AUV’s six DOF gliding model is established and a simulation system of AL-AUV is built with Matlab/Simulink. Analyzing the recorded simulation velocity and pitch characteristics of AL-AUV deployed at varying initial velocities and wing area, the optimized wing is selected.

Abstract:
One of the largest design considerations for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVâ s) that have specific mission scenarios is the propulsive efficiency. The propulsive efficiency affects the amount of power storage required to achieve a specific mission. As the efficiency increases the volume of energy being stored decreases. The decrease in volume allows for a smaller vehicle, which results in a vehicle that requires less thrust to attain a specific speed. The process of selecting an efficient propulsive system becomes an iterative process between motor, propeller, and battery storage. Optimized propulsion systems for mission specific AUVâ s require costly motor and propeller fabrication which may not be available to the designer. Recent advancements in commercially available electric motors and propellers allows for cost effective propulsion systems. The design space selection of motors and propellers has recently increased due to component demand of remote control airplane and boats. The issue with such systems is how to predict small propeller and small motor performance interactions since remote control motor and propeller designers usually donâ t provide enough information about the performance of their product. The mission statement is to design a propeller and motor combination that will allow an autonomous underwater vehicle to travel large distances while maintaining good efficiency. The vehicle will require 12 N of thrust with a forward velocity of 2 m/s. The propeller needs to be larger than 2.5â due to inflow velocity interaction and smaller than 4â due to loss of thrust when in surface transit due to suction.

Abstract:

An underlying requirement for any Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is to navigate through unknown or partly unknown environments while performing certain user specified tasks. The loss of an AUV due to collision is unjustifiable both in terms of cost and replacement time. To prevent such an unfortunate event, one requires a robust and effective Collision Avoidance System (CAS). This paper discusses the collision avoidance problem for the HUGIN AUVs. In the first part, a complete simulator for the HUGIN AUV is implemented in matlab and simulink. This includes a 6 degrees-of-freedom nonlinear AUV model, simulated environment including bottom profile and surface ice, navigation- and guidance functionality and sensor simulators. In the second part a number of well known strategies for the collision avoidance problem is presented with a short analysis of their properties. On the basis of the implemented simulator, a proposed CAS is developed and it’s performance is analyzed. This system is based on simple principles and known collision avoidance strategies, in order to provide effective and robust performance. The proposed system provides feasible solutions during all simulations and the collision avoidance maneuvers are performed in accordance with the specified user demands. The developed simulator and collision avoidance system is expected to provide a suitable framework for further development and possibly a physical implementation on the HUGIN AUVs.

Abstract:
Sweden is dependent on secure sea transport. Shorter disruption of imports of fuel and crude oil can be managed with an emergency stock, but a prolonged halt in imports creates problems. For industry, the vulnerability is greater. Fragmented production chains in combination with expenditure reductions in inventory causes a dependency on proper transport of intermediate goods in the manufacturing industry. A lengthy disruption thus involves disruption of production for both domestic consumption and for export goods containing imported parts.In order to secure shipping routes with a limited number of vessels, Mine Counter Measures (MCM) capacity is required, and according to the Armed Forces, developed with new sensors and autonomous vehicles. Sweden has acquired small AUV systems for MCM, and has plans to acquire larger and more advanced. Before any acquisition is implemented, a number of considerations have to be made. How does advanced AUV inflict on existing methods and systems? Is the result is better, is it faster, do we need to make adjustments? The essay aims to examine the military technology influence an AUV have on today's MCM operations. The results of the study can serve as part of the decision support for the Armed Forces and FMV before a purchase of an advanced AUV.The results of the thesis show that Advanced AUV:s, with the qualities they have , can affect the way the Armed Forces are conducting MCM today.

Compared to large vehicles acting individually, platoons of small, inexpensive autonomous underwater vehicles have the potential to perform some missions that are commonly conducted by larger vehicles faster, more efficiently, and at a reduced operational cost. This thesis describes the power system of a small, inexpensive autonomous underwater vehicle developed by the Autonomous Systems Controls Laboratory at Virginia Tech.

Reduction in vehicle size and cost reduces the accuracy of navigational sensors, leading to the need for autonomous calibration. Several models of navigational sensors are discussed, and the extended Kalman filter is used to form an observer for each, which are simulated and analyzed.

The extensible Markup Language (XML) is used for data storage and message exchange, Extensible 3D (X3D) Graphics for visualization and XML Schema-based Binary Compression (XSBC) for data compression. The AUV Workbench provides an intuitive cross-platform-capable tool with extensibility to provide for future enhancements such as agent-based control, asynchronous reporting and communication, loss-free message compression and built-in support for mission data archiving. This thesis also investigates the Jabber instant messaging protocol, showing its suitability for text and file messaging in a tactical environment. Exemplars show that the XML backbone of this open-source technology can be leveraged to enable both human and agent messaging with improvements over current systems. Integrated Jabber instant messaging support makes the NPS AUV Workbench the first custom application supporting XML Tactical Chat (XTC). Results demonstrate that the AUV Workbench provides a capable testbed for diverse AUV technologies, assisting in the development of traditional single-vehicle operations and agent-based multiple-vehicle methodologies. The flexible design of the Workbench further encourages integration of new extensions to serve operational needs. Exemplars demonstrate how in-mission and post-mission event monitoring by human operators can be achieved via simple web page, standard clients or custom instant messaging client. Finally, the AUV Workbench's potential as a tool in the development of multiple-AUV tactics and doctrine is discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract In underwater observation using an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), a support vessel typically monitors the AUV to support the observation. In order to make the AUV operation more efficient, an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) and an acoustic multi-access communication and positioning system have developed. The developed acoustic system achieves multi-access with frequency division multiple access (FDMA) method, and the ASV can monitor up to three AUVs simultaneously. Positioning is performed with super short baseline (SSBL) method. The acoustic device has operation mode in which positioning and communication functions are integrated to achieve efficient uplink and accurate downlink simultaneously. Two observation operations were conducted successfully. In one of those, the ASV communicated with two types of AUVs during observation in 1250m water depth, then multiple access were achieved. Even nadir angle for one AUV became almost 40 degrees, the acoustic communication was performed. In another observation, two cruising AUVs were operated with a vessel and the ASV in 1500m water depth. The ASV monitored one AUV. Condition in case the device is equipped on small body of the ASV was evaluated. The communication was performed in this depth in severe condition. Furthermore integrated sequence of positioning and communication was successfully performed. Requirement in next phase, in which operation depth and number of multiple access are increased, is discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract National Maritime Research Institute (NMRI) has been studying the development of multi-vehicle operation technology for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) mainly from the viewpoint of efficient operation. These results were obtained through our participation in the 2nd term Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP2), “Innovative Technology for Exploration of Deep Sea Resources” in Japan. In the project, NMRI is promoting an advanced control system for AUVs initiatively together with the lead agency, Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC). This paper is placed as the second report in the series. The contents of the paper show the results of the fundamental formation control with three cruising AUVs and one ASV in the sea, and the results of AUV-AUV positioning and communication tests with two hovering AUVs. As a result, in the case of the trial of the fundamental formation control, seafloor topography mapping at the coast in Japan was successfully conducted by the AUVs control system. Moreover, two hovering AUVs navigated with positioning and communication each other in the sea having no problem. The results of the two trials are reported and summarized.

Abstract:
In underwater observation using an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), a support vessel typically monitors the AUV to support the observation. The AUV have to be positioned to be tracked by the vessel and informed the positioning result for navigation with acoustic communication. This process is significant especially in deep water. The AUV uplinks to inform its status and transmit some observation data in real time, and sometimes be commanded to change the observation plan by downlink from the vessel. Authors planned to use an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) to track and monitor multiple AUVs for efficient observation. An acoustic multi-access communication and positioning system have developed as one of the elemental technologies for the observation system. The developed acoustic system achieves multi-access with frequency division multiple access (FDMA) method, and the ASV can monitor up to three AUVs simultaneously. Positioning is performed with super short baseline (SSBL) method. The acoustic device has operation mode in which positioning and communication functions are integrated, called as auto mode. In auto mode, uplink packets can be very close and the AUV can uplinks efficiently, and timing of downlink is calculated from positioning result appropriately. Results of two sea trials are shown. The precision of positioning was enough to track the AUV. However random error was much larger than that of SSBL of the vessel, hence some precise method is necessary to keep the quality of observation data high. Communication and auto mode sequence worked well in the sea trial.

Abstract:
The Navy would like to use platoons of cooperating Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) for large area underwater mine countermeasures (MCM). Collaborative behavior requires a common language, control structure, and logic so the AUVs can coordinate their action through communication. The loss of an AUV (can no longer perform assigned tasks) is a problem the formation is likely to face. The formation must compensate for lost AUVs, or time would be wasted in researching the area. In order to replace a lost AUV, the formation must determine when a vehicle is lost and what to do if a vehicle returns after being declared lost. To address these problems, fuzzy logic was used to determine when an AUV should be replaced, and a logic structure was developed to insert returning AUVs. Computer simulations showed that the logics increased the defined performance index by about 70% over the baseline case.

Abstract:
Abstract Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) missions are limited in range and duration by the vehicle’s battery capacity, and sensor payloads are limited by the processing power onboard which is also restricted by the vehicle’s battery capacity. Furthermore, the power consumption of a vehicle’s acoustic system limits the possibility of substantial data transmission, requiring the AUV be retrieved to download most data. The Platform for Expanding AUV exploRation to Longer ranges (PEARL), described in this paper, aims to extend the range and endurance of AUVs while reducing data latency and operating costs. PEARL is an integrated autonomous floating servicing station that utilizes renewable energy to simultaneously provide AUV battery recharging and data uplink via new generation high-bandwidth low-Earth orbit satellite constellations. This paper details the design and testing of two potential AUV docking modules of the PEARL system. The modules are uniquely located near the ocean surface, an energetic environment that presents a particular set of challenges for AUV docking. The results will be used to inform the design of a prototype system to be tested in an ocean setting.

Abstract:
Abstract The National Maritime Research Institute (NMRI), in collaboration with the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC), is conducting research and development of seafloor observation technology using multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and one autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) under the 2nd SIP project “Innovative Technology for Deep Sea Resource Exploration.” A group of heterogeneous AUVs with different design concepts may have to be controlled when operating multiple AUVs simultaneously. In this study, we developed a basic formation control system that enables various AUV control with minimal software and hardware modifications to ASV and AUVs and successfully tested it in actual sea conditions. Four AUVs and one ASV from different manufacturers were used in the sea trials. The basic formation control system kept all AUVs within acoustic communication range and successfully acquired seafloor topographic data. The tests demonstrated the capability of basic formation control with heterogeneously navigated AUVs. This paper reports and summarizes the test results of those basic formation control tests.

Abstract:
As opposed to ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles), self-propelled, unmanned autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are becoming increasingly important since, unlike ROVs they can operate completely self-sufficiently, i.e. independent of the carrier platform and cable at practically any depth and for long periods of time, require only minor technical and logistic support and can be used in regions which are inaccessible to manned submersibles or ROVs (e.g. under ice regions). In other words, AUVs are distinguished by a wide range of applications, the extremely high quality of data collected, their very cost-effective operation and the large standoff capability to the carrier platform, the latter bringing about a distinct improvement in terms of carrier platform safety e.g. for military missions. Due to these advantages over conventional systems, AUVs can be employed for a whole variety of applications, such as the following in the commercial sector: • Sea Bed Mapping, • Pipeline and Route Survey, • Inspection/Control, • Site Clearance, • Debris Survey, • Science – Search – Environment – Geology, • Harbour and ship’s hull inspection. Moreover AUVs will play an important role in the military scenario like mine countermeasure as well. Obviously, one single type of AUV will be unable to cover this entire spectrum if — above and beyond the aforementioned applications — one considers the different operating depths ranging from coastal regions (about 10 m) to deep water (approx. 4000 m) and the various possible carrier platforms (helicopters, ships, submarines, shore stations). On the other hand, the development and use of one specific type of AUV for one or a very limited number of mission types would be very expensive, both in terms of costs involved and necessary logistics, and would hardly be acceptable on the market. The solution to this problem is the “modularity” of the AUV subsystems as well as a family concept for the vehicle design. To implement this strategy, ATLAS ELEKTRONIK has forced the development and marketing of an AUV family for a wide array of missions. The family starts with the SeaFox-IQ, a very small and lightweight (40 kg) AUV for 300 m diving depth, based on the extreme successful mine disposal ROV SeaFox. The big brother is the SeaStout, a 100 kg AUV, designed for 300 m too. The SeaOtter Mk1 and SeaOtter Mk2 AUVs are 1500 kg and 1100 kg vehicles for 600 m operations. The leading edge is the AUV DeepC, a 2500 kg experimental vehicle developed for 4000 m depth and up to 60 h endurance. The ATLAS AUV family offer a lot of hard- and software commonality to ensure that serviceability is maintained, while having a high degree of “customisation” in key areas like payload sensor selection ensuring they will meet customer needs.
