Experimental Verification of a Depth Controller using Model Predictive Control with Constraints onboard a Thruster Actuated AUV [PDF]
In this work a depth and pitch controller for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is developed. This controller uses the model predictive control method to manoeuvre the vehicle whilst operating within the defined constraints of the AUV actuators ...

Improving the energy efficiency of autonomous underwater vehicles by learning to model disturbances [PDF]
Energy efficiency is one of the main challenges for long-term autonomy of AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles). We propose a novel approach for improving the energy efficiency of AUV controllers based on the ability to learn which external disturbances ...

Abstract The navigational drift for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) operating in open ocean can be bounded by regular surfacing. However, this is not an option when operating under ice. To operate effectively under ice requires an on-board navigation solution that does not rely on external infrastructure.
