| definition | Systems dedicated to the positioning of subsea vehicles such as ROV and AUV. They are based on acoustic transmitted signals between one or several transponders and one acoustic antenna installed on a surface vessel. The transponders are mounted on the underwater vehicle or are fixed on the seafloor. These underwater acoustic positioning systems are coupled with inertial navigation systems. | ||||||
