Abstract
AUVs(Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) have a problem that they need mother ship to be deployed, be recovered and recharge batteries. In these days, seafloor sensor network which consist of seafloor stations connected by cables to research seafloor environment is suggested around the world. If AUVs use this seafloor sensor network for localization and recharging batteries, activity area will be extended. This paper proposes a navigation method for AUVs to move between seafloor stations. The proposed method consists of local navigation and internode navigation. Local navigation is used near the seafloor station and internode navigation is used to move between seafloor stations. This paper describes details of the method. Additionally, we present simulation results to evaluate the performance of the method.
