Coverage Path Planning With Track Spacing Adaptation for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

Abstract: In this paper we address the mine countermeasures (MCM) search problem for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) surveying the seabed using a side-looking sonar. We propose a coverage path planning method that adapts the AUV track spacing with the objective of collecting better data. We achieve this by shifting the coverage overlap at the tail of the sensor range where the lowest data quality is expected. To assess the algorithm, we collected data from three at-sea experiments. The adaptive survey allowed the… Show more

“…A gain is added to the cover fitness to identify how far it is from the 90-degree angle. Equation (11) shows the Gaussian function of the intersection gain. The goal is a Gaussian that ranges from 60 to 120 degrees, with a unit value of 90 degrees: With this fitness configuration, the search for better parameters can use any metaheuristic algorithm.…”

“…To sample using an optimal strategy with a reduced number of probes, motion planners for information acquisition have been previously proposed. This is part of a research theme referred to as Informative Path Planning (IPP) [9], [38], [39]. Among IPP approaches developed for tactile sensors, a commonly used approach is to explore uncertain regions using discrete sampling.…”

“…Park et al proposed a distributed approach combing alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) to nonmyopic path planning for multi-target tracking, but it can not avoid obstacles in the environment (Park et al, 2019). Yordanova et al proposed a path planning and tracking method for the area coverage of autonomous underwater vehicles, but in essence, the method is still only for the 2-D environment without obstacles (Yordanova and Gips, 2020). Penin et al proposed a visionbased path planning and target tracking method for UAVs (Penin et al, 2018).…”

“…Compared with these studies (Penin et al, 2018;Park et al, 2019;Yordanova and Gips, 2020;Yu et al, 2020), there are few studies for online path planning and tracking of MRS. During online path planning and tracking of MRS, the proposed model needs to plan the trajectories easy to track in real-time, which deals with dynamic environments and accidents, such as robot fault, moving obstacles, and so on. Online path planning and tracking need to solve the following three problems.…”
