Abstract

The invention discloses an underwater robot control system and method for submarine cable routing inspection. The control system comprises a long-distance control part and a mission control part. Thelong-distance control part is located above the water surface and in charge of assigning operation missions to an underwater robot. The mission control part is connected with a power propellant part.The mission control part is configured to receive the operation missions assigned by the long-distance control part, and conduct route planning on the operation missions so as to control the power propellant part to implement corresponding actions, and thus multi-degree of freedom navigation of the underwater robot is achieved. Meanwhile, real-time adjusting is conducted on navigation parameters,and it is ensured that the underwater robot successfully complete the assigned operation missions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of underwater robot control, and in particular relates to an underwater robot control system and method for inspection of submarine cables. Background technique [0002] Submarine cable laying is recognized as a very difficult large-scale project in the world, with large investment scale, high construction difficulty and long laying distance. At present, most submarine cables are laid by seabed burial, which is the most economical and effective way to protect the safety of submarine cables. However, the submarine cables after they are put into operation still need regular inspections to check possible problems with the submarine cable body (such as whether the cable body is exposed outside the buried ditch, corrosion and wear of the outer skin, etc.) and potential damage to the submarine cable routing area. Threats (e.g. changes in shallow seabed geology, marine sediment cover, etc.). In case of accidents such as br...
