Abstract

The self-position estimation problem of X4-AUV, which is an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) driven by four thrusters, is considered. Since a self-position cannot be underwater measured directly using GPS etc., we have to consider any method for realizing it by an indirect method. The AUV treated by this research has a mechanical structure that a self-position is controlled by changing the attitude from the feature of drive mechanism, and it can observe an attitude angle from an internal sensor, so that based on the dynamical model of the present AUV, a method for estimating the self-position is proposed by applying an extended Kalman filter. The usefulness of this technique is demonstrated by checking the feasibility in the simulation of the position control that used the position estimate.
