Experiments in dynamic control of autonomous marine vehicles using acoustic modems

Marine robots are an increasingly attractive means for observing and monitoring in the ocean, but underwater acoustic communication ("acomms") remains a major challenge, especially for real-time control. Packet loss occurs widely, bit rates are low, and there are significant delays. We con...
