In this paper an approach-angle-based three-dimensional path-following control scheme
has been proposed for underactuated Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) which …

The oceans cover more than two-thirds of the planet, representing the vastest part of natural
resources. Nevertheless, only a fraction of the ocean depths has been explored. Within this …

This paper reviews the development of underwater docking technology and compares the
advantages and disadvantages of various docking methods. Docking station types, acoustic …

Recently, there has been increasing interest in the field of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
(AUV) navigation and localization. Navigation is a critical element for AUV because of the …

To achieve persistent systems in the future, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) will
need to autonomously dock onto a charging station. Here, reinforcement learning strategies …

Autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) docking technique attracts attention which leverages
the long-term, on-station vehicle launch and recovery for the underwater missions. In this …
