In order to meet the needs of large-scale underwater operations, the underwater acoustic communication network emerged, marking a historic moment. At the same time, the development of artificial intelligence has promoted the application of intelligent underwater robots in large-scale underwater operations, and the research on related algorithms has been gradually promoted. Due to the complexity of underwater operations and the difficulty of replacing batteries, the energy efficiency of intelligent underwater robots is particularly important in multi-AUVs data acquisition systems. In view of the energy consumption of multi-AUVs data acquisition systems in water acoustic cluster networks, this paper proposed the AE (A*-Energy) algorithm for multi-AUVs task assignment and path planning. Through the simulation experiment, it was proved that the AE algorithm proposed in this paper can effectively reduce the energy consumption of multi-AUVs data acquisition systems and has good energy efficiency.
为满足大规模水下作业的需求,水下声通信网络应运而生,标志着一个历史性时刻。与此同时,人工智能的发展推动了智能水下机器人在大规模水下作业中的应用,相关算法的研究也在逐步推进。由于水下作业的复杂性以及更换电池的困难性,智能水下机器人的能量效率在多自主水下航行器(AUV)数据采集系统中尤为重要。针对水声集群网络中多AUV数据采集系统的能量消耗问题,本文提出了用于多AUV任务分配和路径规划的AE(A*-能量)算法。通过仿真实验证明,本文提出的AE算法能够有效降低多AUV数据采集系统的能量消耗,具有良好的能量效率。
