Abstract
This paper offers a characterization of an underwater positioning system primarily based mostly on ground nodes ready with GPS and acoustic transducers. The positioning tool calculates the coordinates of an underwater automobile in one of the floor nodes or beacons, through the way of the emission, detection, and respond of acoustic encoded indicators. The characterization of the device has been executed by using a statistical check, considering distinctive numbers of beacons, beacons’ function and bodily phenomena, which encompass noise, multipath, and Doppler spread. The blunders propagation because of these phenomena and the geometrical configuration of the system has been quantitatively assessed in unique positioning algorithms, primarily based on trilateration and iterative procedures. The outcomes show how the unique phenomena have an impact on the car anticipated function errors for the exceptional positioning algorithms. In addition, the acquired errors within the projected location of the beacons are 1 m or lower, growing to three meters for the worst case state of affairs, displaying the feasibility of the acoustic positioning device
