The invention discloses an
ocean current monitoring method based on
submarine mooring subsurface
buoy tracking and positioning, belongs to the technical field of
underwater navigation and positioning, is used for
ocean current monitoring, and comprises the following steps: implementing attitude correction of a GNSS (Global Navigation
Satellite System) antenna, and obtaining a sound
signal emission position of a sea surface
transducer; establishing a sea surface-
seabed sonar observation equation based on acoustic time measurement data and sound velocity profile data between sea surface and
seabed anchor
system subsurface buoys, establishing a
seabed anchor
system subsurface
buoy motion constraint equation based on a random walk model, and forming a positioning model considering seabed anchor
system subsurface
buoy motion characteristics; and carrying out adjustment calculation on the positioning model considering the motion characteristics of the
submarine anchor system subsurface buoy to obtain a coordinate sequence of the
submarine anchor system subsurface buoy, and carrying out
smoothing processing on the coordinate sequence to obtain an
ocean current motion trail. According to the invention, the motion sequence of the subsurface buoy is tracked and positioned, so that the motion trail of the ocean current is monitored, and the physical
ocean environment of km scale magnitude based on the ocean
geodetic survey technology is monitored.
