A Novel Single-Beacon Navigation Method for Group AUVs Based on SIMO Model
Single-beacon navigation for group autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) suffers from long navigation period and asynchronization. This paper addresses the problem by introducing the single-input-multiple-output (SIMO) model, where, a single AUV ...

Robust Formation Control for Multiple Underwater Vehicles
This paper addresses the distance-based formation control problem for multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) in a leader-follower architecture. The leading AUV is assigned a task to track a desired trajectory and the following AUVs try to set up ...

Hybrid maneuver for gradient search with multiple coordinated AUVs
Abstract This work presents a hybrid maneuver for gradient search with multiple AUV's. The mission consists in following a gradient field in order to locate the source of a hydrothermal vent orunderwater freshwater source. The formation gradient search exploits the environment structuring by the phenomena to be studied.

Synchronized path following control of multiple homogenous underactuated AUVs
This paper addresses the problem of synchronized path following of multiple homogenous underactuated autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). The dedicated control laws are categorized into two envelopes: One is steering individual underwater vehicle to track along predefined path, and the other is ensuring tracked paths of multiple vehicles to be ...
