In this paper, a review on the three most important communication techniques (ground,
aerial, and underwater vehicles) has been presented that throws light on trajectory planning …

Aiming at the problems of low global path quality and poor dynamic obstacle avoidance
performance in underwater three-dimensional AUV autonomous path planning, an AUV …

Energy consumption and motion accuracy are both important performance metrics for
underwater gliders, which are closely related to the glider control parameters values. For the …

The underwater glider (UG) is a new type of underwater vehicle and has gained enormous
attention in the field of ocean observation and detection. Compared with the traditional …

This paper proposes an offline path planning method based on the Improved Quantum
Particle Swarm Optimization (IQPSO) algorithm for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles …

In actual application, the energy utilization rate of underwater glider directly affects the total
