Abstract
The proposed development and deployment of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) can pose a serious threat to friendly forces in the event of AUV system malfunction. For the AUV to be acceptable to existing operational forces, it must therefore possess exceptional reliability. This paper presents control system design techniques which can provide this necessary level of fault tolerance.
