Mobile swarms of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) have exciting potential for extending current AUV applications and adding new possibilities to the working environment of the oceans. For swarm operations to occur, fast reliable communication between all vehicles within the swarm is needed. The challenge for underwater communication is the very different and unique characteristics of the channel...
Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UW-ASNs) consist of stationary or mobile nodes such as Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), which may be classified as propeller-driven vehicles and gliders, that are equipped with a variety of sensors for performing collaborative monitoring tasks. The missions entrusted to the AUVs in this work are critical to human life and property, are bound by severe time...
This paper reports results from the joint European project ldquoUUV covert acoustic communicationsrdquo (UCAC), which aims at the establishment of a covert communication link between an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) and a distant mother platform using acoustic telemetry. To this end, sea trials were carried out in 2006 and 2007 in two different areas in the Baltic and Norwegian North Sea. During...
