Cooperative Localization for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles -- a comprehensive review (2307.06189v1)

Published 12 Jul 2023 in eess.SY and cs.SY

Abstract: Cooperative localization is an important technique in environments devoid of GPS-based localization, more so in underwater scenarios, where none of the terrestrial localization techniques based on radio frequency or optics are suitable due to severe attenuation. Given the large swaths of oceans and seas where autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operate, traditional acoustic positioning systems fall short on many counts. Cooperative localization (CL), which involves sharing mutual information amongst the vehicles, has thus emerged as a viable option in the past decade. This paper assimilates the research carried out in AUV cooperative localization and presents a qualitative overview. The cooperative localization approaches are categorized by their cooperation and localization strategies, while the algorithms employed are reviewed on the various challenges posed by the underwater acoustic channel and environment. Furthermore, existing problems and future scope in the domain of underwater cooperative localization are discussed.
