Passive acoustic surveillance of surface vessels using tridimensional array on an underwater glider
(CMRE, 2019/06)
The NATO-STO Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE) has proposed to approach the problem of monitoring marine traffic in defined sea areas by using passive acoustics on a mobile underwater platform, in ...
Cooperative robotic networks for underwater surveillance: an overview
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Underwater surveillance has traditionally been carried out by means of surface and undersea manned vessels equipped with advanced sensor systems. This approach is often costly and manpower intensive. Marine robotics is an ...
A market-based task allocation framework for autonomous underwater surveillance networks
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Realisation of underwater robotic surveillance networks raises several challenges for marine robotics. The underwater scenario is typically characterised by intermittent and unreliable communication. This makes it challenging ...
Localization of small surface vessels through acoustic data fusion of two tetrahedral arrays of hydrophones
(CMRE, 2014/01)
Detection and tracking of vessels is important in confined areas such as marine parks or harbors. Nowadays, the presence of ships can be accurately monitored either by radar or via AIS system, while small vessels, which ...
Autonomous underwater surveillance networks: a task allocation framework to manage cooperation
(2019/05)
The design of efficient task allocation schemes is essential to manage autonomous underwater robotic surveillance networks. The network has to assign the most suited robots to the tasks which compose the mission, in spite ...
