The Development Status of Underwater Positioning and Navigation Technology Used on Deep Tow System

Article Preview

Abstract:

The methods of the geophysical navigation and acoustic navigation are outlined in this paper. And this paper focuses on the applications of acoustic positioning used on deep tow system. The advantages and disadvantages of three traditional acoustic positioning systems, especially for USBL system, are respectively summarized. Some typical products are listed to illuminate the performance and application of acoustic navigation system. And this paper pointed out the key technical problems to be solved and its development of underwater navigation. Combined acoustic navigation and integrated navigation will become a research hotspot.
