Marine Autonomy, Sensing and Communications
2.S998 · Mechanical Engineering · Graduate · Spring 2012
Dr. Michael Benjamin, Prof. Henrik Schmidt
This course covers basic topics in autonomous marine vehicles, focusing mainly on software and algorithms for autonomous decision making (autonomy) by underwater vehicles operating in the ocean environments, autonomously adapting to the environment for improved sensing performance. It will introduce students to underwater acoustic communication environment, as well as the various options for undersea navigation, both crucial to the operation of collaborative undersea networks for environmental …
