The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic sailing of unmanned ships, and particularly relates to an automatic sailing temperature-
salinity-depth profile
observation system and method for mesoscale eddy prediction, the
system is arranged on an unmanned ship and connected with an automatic retractable
winch, and the
system comprises a temperature-
salinity-depth probe device arranged at the
tail end of an A frame of the automatic retractable
winch and used for retracting through the automatic retractable
winch; lifting is realized, so that temperature,
salinity and depth parameters of
seawater with different profiles are measured, and key ocean data are provided for mesoscale eddy prediction; the data is transmitted to a mother ship /
shore base end through a remote intelligent navigation
control system; and the remote intelligent navigation
control system is used for receiving various data and sending the data to the mother ship /
shore base end, and controlling the driving process or task process of the automatic winding and unwinding winch, the temperature-salinity-depth probe device and the unmanned ship according to the instruction of the mother ship /
shore base end. According to the invention, the laying and
recovery of the temperature-salinity-depth profile
measuring equipment can be controlled when the ship is sailing, and the laying and
recovery of the sailing type temperature-salinity-depth profile
measuring equipment can be carried out on the unmanned ship after upgrading and reconstruction.
