This paper presents an underwater navigation system based on range measurements from a known reference station fixed on the sea bottom or floated at surface with a buoy, for which the system is extended to 3-dimensional coordinates. We formulated a state equation in polar coordinates and constituted an extended Kalman filter for discrete-time implementation of the navigation algorithm. The autonomous underwater vehicle, lSiMl, cruising with a constant speed can estimate its trajectory using just range measurements and additional depth, heading and pitch sensors. Simulation studies were performed to evaluate the underwater navigation of the maneuvering AUV with range measurements. We modulated the sample rate of range measurements to evaluate the effect of the update rate, and changed the initial position error of the AUV to check the robustness to estimation errors. Simulation results illustrates that the extended navigation system provides convergence of the state estimates. The navigation system was conditionally stable when it had initial position errors.

Military Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is utilized to search a mine under the sea. This paper presents design and performance verification of real-time hybrid navigation system for AUV. The navigation system uses Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) integration method to correct INS error in underwater. When the AUV is floated on the water, the accumulated error of navigation algorithm is corrected using position/velocity of GPS. The navigation algorithm is verified using 6 Degree Of Freedom (DOF) simulation, Program In the Loop Simulation (PILS). Finally, the experiments are performed in real sea environment to prove the reliability of real-time hybrid navigation algorithm.

자율무인잠수정(AUV, Autonomous Underwater Vehicle)이 해저 속에서 주어진 임무(mission)를 수행하는데 있어 가장 먼저 선행되어야 하는 것은 목표점(Goal Position)까지 안전하고 빠르게 항행할 수 있는 자율 항행시스템(Autonomous Navigation System) 관련 기술의 개발이다. 이러한 시스템은 IPMS(Integrated Platform Management System)률 기반으로 하여 자율무인잠수정에 자율성을 부여하는 항행전문가시스템(Navigation Expert System)이 결합된 구조이다. 본 논문에서는 IPMS에 기반 한 자율항행시스템의 개념적 구조를 설계하고 항행전문가시스템의 추론방법으로서 퍼지관계곱(Fuzzy Relational Products) 기반 평가함수를 이용한 항행 휴리스틱탐색(navigation heuristic search) 기법을 제안한다.

These days, a study on 'Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV)' has made very active progress in many countries. Even if it is being expected that there will be a great demand of USV for wide field, such as military operation, private sector, and etc., the study of USV in Korea is still at an early stage. For this reason, we have made a very small USV which is composed of dual mode (autonomous and remote control). The TCP/IP communication is applied to the USV.

In this paper, we develop and implement a high integrity GNC(Guidance, Navigation, and Control) system, based on the combined use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), for autonomous land vehicle applications. This paper highlights guidance for the predetermined trajectory and navigation with detection of possible faults during the fusion process in order to enhance the integrity of the navigation loop. The implementation of the GNC system to the autonomous land vehicle presented with fault detection methodology considers high frequency faults from the GPS receiver caused by shadowing and multipath error The implementation, based on a low-cost, strapdown INS aided by standard GPS technology, is described. The results of the field test in the urban environment are presented and showed effectiveness of the GNC system.

This paper concerns the navigation algorithm of motion reference unit (MRU) for autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) We apply the strapdown navigation system using middle level inertial sensors. But, because the MRU consists of inertial sensors, the values of AUV motion calculated by navigation computer are increased by drift property of inertial sensors. Therefore, we propose the attitude algorithm using switching method according to the motion of AUV From this algorithm, the drift terms are eliminated effectively for roll and pitch. But, another device is required for yaw angle.

The Mission environment of UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle) has a complexity and variety, and the status of system and sensor is dependent on the environment factors such as operation time, the weather and road type. It is necessary for UGV to cope adaptively with the various mission types, operation modes and operation environment as human operators do. To satisfy this necessity, we present an autonomy manager based on the autonomous architecture. In this paper, we design a path planning software architecture and LPP manager by using open autonomous architecture which is previously designed by ADD. Field test is conducted with UGV in order to verify the performance of LPP Manager based on the Autonomous Architecture with scenarios.
