Abstract
The need to successfully navigate in an underwater environment is rapidly becoming an important concern in the 1990´s. This paper presents the development of an integrated navigation system for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) using GPS, INS and sonar. This paper discusses the existing problems with sub-sea navigation, the motivation for an integrated system, the mathematical derivation for an integrated GPS/INS/sonar system, and the results obtained from extensive testing
