The depth control problem is described and addressed for a small autonomous underwater vehicle in this paper. Based on the nonlinear model of AUV in vertical plane, the paper established a mathematical model of AUV's depth motion in vertical plane by linearizing the model at a specified operating point. An optimal integral-sliding-mode controller was designed for the AUV depth control system by constructing...
The unstructured sea environment and the uncertainty of AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) model make a hard difficulty to AUV heading control. PID controller has good robustness and high reliability characteristics for that can get accurate model of definite system in math. But PID controller is not satisfactory for the system with inaccurate and nonlinear model in unstructured sea environment....
This paper presents AUTOTRACKER, an autonomous pipeline inspection system that operates as a dynamic mission payload for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). The paper describes the mode of operation, together with the validation & trial operations AUTOTRACKER has undertaken over the years, and how this valuable experience has been fed back into the future development of the system.
Modern developments in the fields of control, sensing, and communication have made increasingly complex and dedicated underwater robot systems a reality. Used in a highly hazardous and unknown environment, the autonomy and dynamics of the robots is the key to mission success. Though the dynamics of underwater vehicle system is highly coupled and non linear in nature, decoupled control system strategy...
