Description

AUV collision avoidance training system
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of autonomous collision avoidance of AUV, relates to an AUV collision avoidance training system, and in particular relates to an AUV collision avoidance training system based on modularized simulation obstacles
Background
The underwater unmanned vehicle AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) is an unmanned, autonomous control device for traveling under water. With the continuous development of AUV technology, AUV has wide application prospect in marine environment research and marine resource detection. The ocean is a complex and changeable environment, and when the underwater unmanned aircraft is in working navigation, the unmanned aircraft needs to face obstacles from the sea surface, such as navigation ships, buoys and the like; obstacles in water, such as large fish, etc.; the threat of a collision of an obstacle below the water surface, such as an underwater canyon, a rock wall, etc., may seriously cause damage to the AUV. How to avoid the obstacle becomes an important research direction in the research of AUV technology.
AUVs are highly autonomous in a dynamic, complex marine environment, and must have very high obstacle avoidance control capability for obstacles of different locations and sizes in the marine environment. In order to improve the obstacle avoidance capability, a collision avoidance test field is required to be arranged for carrying out collision avoidance training on the AUV. In the collision avoidance training, in order to meet the requirements of various working conditions, obstacles with different sizes from the water surface, the water and the water bottom need to be simulated. Meanwhile, aiming at the problem that the AUV is damaged due to collision between the training AUV and the obstacle, the AUV needs to be protected in the test process. Therefore, in the collision avoidance training, the problem to be solved in the AUV collision avoidance test is solved by how to set up the obstacle with variable size on the water surface, in the water and at the water bottom, and simultaneously sensing the occurrence of collision, and safely and efficiently developing the AUV collision avoidance training test work.
The research on the problem related to autonomous collision avoidance of the AUV is currently focused on aspects of autonomous collision avoidance system composition, intelligent collision avoidance algorithm, sonar data filtering and the like. The current method for AUV collision prevention is endless and mainly comprises random sampling, linear fitting, potential field method, ant colony algorithm, quantum behavior algorithm and the like. For example, in the article 'dynamic obstacle avoidance study of underwater robots based on sensors', the sensors are used for acquiring obstacle information, and the information acquired by the sensors is described by adopting a grid method, so that the AUV can avoid obstacles and meet the navigation requirement. However, the related collision avoidance method does not relate to the arrangement of the obstacle and the protection of the AUV after collision during the actual test, and the AUV may be damaged during collision avoidance training. The patent 'AUV multidirectional collision avoidance capability training system with a safety protection air bag' proposes a method for protecting the AUV by measuring the distance between the AUV and an obstacle through a distance measurement sonar and controlling a valve by an obstacle avoidance computer to inflate the retractable safety air bag, so that the problem of damage to the AUV caused by collision is effectively solved. However, the system is inconvenient in the implementation process, for example, in the inflation and deflation process of the air bag, the AUV is required to perform buoyancy adjustment by matching with data of a preset depth posture thrust comparison table, and the process has the problem of difficult control. In addition, the system needs to additionally install an air bag and an air charging and discharging device in the AUV training process, the system is difficult to realize in the specific implementation process, has the problem of high cost, and cannot be arranged in a collision avoidance capability training system suitable for various AUVs.
