Abstract

Remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs) are widely used in underwater operations, from research and survey operations to complex underwater technical and rescue ones. But the connectedness of an ROV and a carrier vessel imposes restrictions on the ROV and vessel’s joint motion. The article aims to present the concept design of an unmanned surface vehicle for an observation-class ROV. The surface vehicle allows breaking wired connections between the carrier vessel and the ROV by a wireless communication system based on Wi-Fi technology. The detailed design of the unmanned surface vehicle and its main systems are presented in the article.
