A Review of Subsea AUV Technology
The observation and detection of the subsea environment urgently require large-scale and long-term observation platforms. The design and development of subsea AUVs involve three key points: the subsea-adapted main body structure, agile motion performance that adapts to complex underwater environment...

| description | The observation and detection of the subsea environment urgently require large-scale and long-term observation platforms. The design and development of subsea AUVs involve three key points: the subsea-adapted main body structure, agile motion performance that adapts to complex underwater environments, and underwater acoustic communication and positioning technology. This paper discusses the development and evolution of subsea AUVs before proposing solutions to underwater acoustic communication and positioning navigation schemes. It also studies key technologies for the agile motion of subsea AUVs and finally gives an example of a solution for implementing underwater AUVs, i.e., the disk-shaped autonomous underwater helicopter (AUH). This paper will provide guidance for the design of subsea AUVs and the development of corresponding observation and detection technologies. |
