An Energy-saving Designated Area Persistent Monitoring Approach for Hybrid Underwater Profiler Based on AIWPSO Algorithm

Hybrid underwater profilers provide an effective method for long-term observations in designated sea areas, but how to balance designated area persistent monitoring (DAPM) performance and power consumption is still a difficult problem. This paper proposes an energy-saving designated area persistent monitoring approach for HUP. An energy consumption model is established for each module used in the HUP observation process. Based on the established model, a DAPM strategy planning approach based on the AIWPSO algorithm is proposed, and the feasibility of the proposed approach is verified through simulations.
