Hydrocarbon fueled UUV power systems
Proceedings of the 2002 Workshop on Autonomous Underwater Vehicles, 2002., 2003Two hydrocarbon fueled internal combustion unmanned undersea vehicles (UUV) power sources incorporating a high-speed turbo-alternator are described, and their performance variation with operating depth and total energy is discussed. Turbine performance data is also discussed. These systems require only the refilling of tanks without disassembly between

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.

REMUS UUV navigation accuracy testing
Oceans 2003. Celebrating the Past ... Teaming Toward the Future (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37492), 2003Three REMUS UUVs were taken to the Kingdom of Bahrain for testing 15 to 24 October 2002. The objective of the test was to measure the Probability of Detection/Classification, Contact Localization Accuracy, and to observe internal vehicle temperatures while operating in warm water.

Stochastic Line Search Using UUVs
2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion, 2006Unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) are increasingly being used in a diverse range of applications. In one particular application, we analyze UUV operations for location, detection and classification of mines. The mission objective is to search the area of interest, using underwater imaging sensors such as side scan sonars, until either the first mine ...

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.
