A long-distance navigation model for AUV based on multiple parameter searching

This paper present an active search navigation model for AUV used geophysical field information in natal homing mission. We consider that the animals homing behavior can be regarded as a ability of search for destination multi-parameter geophysical field without any priori map. Here,a hypothesis is proposed that natal homing can be generalized as a multi-objective problem. The AUV stored the multi-parameter of geophysical field before navigation. Then active searching for those parameters likely animals taxis which can be represent by the stress evolution algorithm. The results show that this model enable the AUV implement long-range navigation without priori map.
