Experimental Verification of Deep-Water Acoustic Communication Performance Aimed at Positioning of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
摘要
Abstract
The paper presents the results of the experimental verification of the feasibility of data exchange with a deeply submerged autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) aimed at its inverse positioning using acoustic communication. The tests were conducted in the equatorial zone of the Indian Ocean near the island of Sumatra in the water area with the average depth of 4700 m. The data obtained are compared with the results of simulation performed for the same conditions.
