摘要
本文介绍了用于水下通信电缆检测的自主水下机器人“AQUA EXPLORER 1000”(AE1000)的概要和概述。AE1000可以通过电缆跟踪传感器找到并跟踪埋在水下的电缆,并将海底的情况记录在内置录像机(VCR)上。一种用于视频信号传输的高比特率声学链路也被新开发,使操作人员能够实时监控海底。自1992年以来,我们进行了五次海上试验,成功地连续跟踪了超过2.6公里的真实水下通信表。讨论了该舰的工程目标、基本设计、性能和海试结果。
Autonomous underwater vehicle AQUA EXPLORER 1000 for inspection of underwater cables
This paper describes the outline and the summary of an autonomous underwater robot "AQUA EXPLORER 1000" (AE1000) for inspection of underwater telecommunication cables. AE1000 can find and track buried underwater cables with a cable tracking sensor, and record the view of the seafloor on a built in video cassette recorder (VCR). A high-bit-rate acoustic link for video-signal transmission is also newly developed, that enables the operator to monitor the seafloor in real-time. Five sea trials have been carried out since 1992, in which we succeeded in the continuous tracking of real underwater telecommunication tables over 2.6 kilometers. The object of the project, basic design, performance, and the results of sea trials are discussed.
