AUTONOMOUS CONTROL OF CLUSTERS OF UUVS
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2007Abstract This paper is concenred with the development of control strategies for autonomous mission planning of a multiple Unhabitated Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) that cooperate in order to perform a number of tasks. Missions of this type include multi-agent reconnaissance and multi-agent mine sweeping problems. The mission planning problem is posed as

Path Planning for UUV in Dynamic Environment
2016 9th International Symposium on Computational Intelligence and Design (ISCID), 2016From naval operations to ocean science missions, the importance of autonomous vehicles is increasing with the advances in underwater robotics technology. Due to the dynamic and intermittent underwater environment and physical limitations of underwater unmanned vehicle (UUV), feasible and optimal path planning is crucial for autonomous underwater ...

Acoustic Communications for UUVs
1999Abstract : The use of Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (UUVs) as off-board sensor platforms for complex missions such as MCM reconnaissance requires an acoustic communication link for command and control as well as mission data product upload. The communications link needs to be robust and useful in a number of different scenarios.

A control architecture is a key component in the development of an autonomous robot. The control architecture has the goal of accomplishing a mission which can be divided into a set of sequential tasks. This chapter has presented behaviour-based control architectures as a methodology to implement this kind of controller.
