Abstract

The invention discloses a positioning and navigating method of a floating underwater autonomous vehicle. The method comprises the following steps that S10 an underwater image is acquired; S20 the acquired image is subjected to significance analysis; S30 the acquired image is subjected to pre-processing and feature extraction and then input into a feature word bag; S40 feature matching, real-time positioning of multiple sensors and propeller controlling are conducted; S50 an image database is built for the output of steps from S20-S40; S60 the image is subjected to close-loop detection according to the image database; and S70 the image database is subjected to offline optimizing. The positioning and navigating method aims at the application environment of the floating underwater autonomousvehicle of a seabed base station and fuses the information of the multiple sensors, and can effectively improve the positioning precision of the floating underwater autonomous vehicle under the water.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of underwater vehicles, and in particular relates to a positioning and navigation method for a suspended underwater autonomous vehicle. Background technique [0002] Hover Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (HAUV for short) is an autonomous underwater vehicle with powerful maneuverability. HAUV has multiple propellers, and has many advantages such as being able to suspend in the water layer, having strong vertical maneuverability, and being able to sail close to the seabed. [0003] The use of traditional underwater positioning methods such as acoustic positioning and dead reckoning positioning in HAUV is costly, and there are defects such as the limited effective distance of acoustic positioning, and dead reckoning has the problem of error accumulation. At this stage, the machine vision method based on seabed terrain is an effective means to solve the problem of HAUV underwater high-precision positioning and navigation. ...
