Optimal Kinematic Control of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2009 This note investigates the motion control of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The AUV is modeled as a nonholonomic system as any lateral motion of a conventional, slender AUV is quickly damped out. The problem is formulated as an optimal kinematic control problem on the Euclidean Group of Motions SE(3) , where the cost function to be minimized ...

Optimized Environment Exploration for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles [PDF]
2018 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2018 Achieving full autonomous robotic environment exploration in the underwater domain is very challenging, mainly due to noisy acoustic sensors, high localization error, control disturbances of the water and lack of accurate un- derwater maps. In this work we present a robotic exploration algorithm for underwater vehicles that does not rely on prior ...
