For many years, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have been developed and employed for a myriad of tasks. Their ability to accurately collect and monitor oceanic conditions makes them a valuable asset for a variety of naval missions. Deploying and recovering AUVs, however, is currently largely limited to surface vessels or swimmers. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that by using a mathematical...
Underwater acoustic networks can be quite effective to establish communication links between autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and other vehicles or control units, enabling complex vehicle applications and control scenarios. A communications and control framework to support the use of underwater acoustic networks and sample application scenarios are described for single and multi-AUV operation.
Some commercial antispam and anti-phishing products prohibit email from "blacklisted" sites that they claim send spam and phishing email, while allowing email claiming to be from "whitelisted" sites they claim are known not to send it. This approach tends to unfairly discriminate against smaller and less-known sites, and would seem to be anti-competitive. An open question is whether...
Reactive obstacle avoidance (OA) is an important step in attaining greater autonomy in autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV). For AUVs that conduct underwater surveys, avoidance of uncharted obstacles can improve vehicle survivability. This paper discusses initial experiments at the Center for AUV Research in obstacle detection and avoidance using the Naval Postgraduate School ARIES AUV with the Blueview...
