Autonomy, cooperation and data fusion can increase the performance of robotic networks in many underwater applications. In this paper, we describe a novel occupancy grid (OG) based perception layer, and its use for controlling a network of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), sensorised with passi…
Cooperative autonomy and data sharing can largely improve the mission performance of robotic networks in underwater surveillance applications. In this paper, we describe the cooperative autonomy used to control the Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) acting as sonar receiver nodes in the CMRE Anti…
The necessity of long-range underwater surveillance has strongly increased in the last decades, and low-frequency active sonar (LFAS) systems seem to fulfill this need. However, in littoral environments with shallow water LFAS may suffer from an elevate number of false alarms. In this context, the c…
