Comparison of Guidance Modes for the AUV "Slocum Glider" in Time-Varying Ocean Flows

arXiv:1702.08090 · doi:10.1109/OCEANS-TAIPEI.2014.6964583

Abstract

This paper presents possibilities for the reliable guidance of an AUV "Slocum Glider" in time-varying ocean flows. The presented guidance modes consider the restricted information during a real mission about the actual position and ocean current conditions as well as the available control modes of a glider. A faster-than-real-time, full software stack simulator for the Slocum glider will be described in order to test the developed guidance modes under real mission conditions.
