水下机器人通信--包括水下机器人之间以及其他节点和站之间的通信--对于智能协作行为以及实现海洋监测和勘探、监视和污染清理等高影响力应用至关重要。本文综述了近年来有关水下通信的文献，重点介绍了水下机器人及其自主性，目的是确定最近的研究趋势，面临的挑战和未来的发展方向。目前的研究着眼于降低设备的成本，设计更逼真的通信模型，并包括这些模型在机器人planning.SummaryWhile目前的努力已经取得了进展，水下通信系统支持机器人的自主性，可靠的通信长期操作仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。令人兴奋的研究方向，包括但不限于更简单的通信配置，选择性的信息共享和优雅的恢复，出现从这次调查，这可以有助于对异构机器人系统，可以部署用于探索水下世界。
Purpose of ReviewUnderwater robot communication – both between underwater robots and between other nodes and stations out of the water – is essential for intelligent cooperative behaviors and for enabling high-impact applications such as ocean monitoring and exploration, surveillance, and pollution cleaning. This paper surveys recent literature on underwater communication with a specific focus on underwater robots and their autonomy with the objective of identifying recent research trends, open challenges, and future directions.Recent FindingsFrom out-of-the-water communication, underwater communication presents unique challenges, including low bandwidth of the communication channel and the lack of reliable communication infrastructure. Current research has looked at reducing the cost of the devices, designing more realistic communication models, and including those models in robot planning.SummaryWhile current efforts have made progress on underwater communication systems for supporting robotics autonomy, reliable communication for long-term operations remains an open problem. Exciting research directions, including but not limited to simpler communication configuration, selective information sharing, and graceful recovery, emerge from this survey, which can contribute towards heterogeneous robotic systems that can be deployed for the exploration of the underwater world.
