The management of sensor nodes on the sea floor represents an important challenge due to the high difficulties associated to the deployment and recovering of untethered instruments on the seafloor. These difficulties are not only related to the management of the instruments themselves but also related to the valuable information that can be lost. Ambient sound and interferences, maritime traffic,...
AUVs are self-propelled and able to navigate at an acceptable speed, but they need an electric motor and batteries that are limited in autonomy. Multivehicle fleet deployment can provide an adequate platform for conducting long term surveillance. Unexpected event detection can be more easily conducted if a set of vehicles in idle mode are expecting the occurrence of this event. Long term and high...
The challenge of extending the autonomy in AUV deployments is one of the most important issues in oceanographic research today. The possibility of maintaining a team of AUV under deployment in a defined area of interest for a long period could provide an additional source of information [8]. All this data in combination with the measures provided by buoys and sea gliders used for slow motion and long...
