One of the challenges of Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) is the design of nodes for collecting information from underwater, with features of low cost, long-term, long range, voyage routing, and real-time communications. Wave glider, has shown great potential acting as IoUT nodes through its persistent, long range travelling, and flexibility underwater. In this paper, we propose an architecture of Internet of Underwater Things, involving multiple wave gliders as nodes for acoustical observation. We present target localisation method via acoustical observation of nodes with multiple wave gliders deployed underwater, by which precision of bearing estimation of each node is required to achieve high precision of localisation. With the data collected, we apply a compensation method of bearing estimate when the hydrophone array is rotating during the observation. The feasibility of acoustical observation of wave gliders has been validated through both simulation and sea trial data, which is of great potential to be nodes for constructing IoUT.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
