Unmanned underwater vehicle health monitoring system and method

摘要

A health monitoring system for an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) is disposed within a submerged docking station. The health monitoring system receive signals representative of performance of the docking station equipment and uses the data to determine the health status of the docking station equipment, to generate health status data representative thereof, and transmits the health status data to a remote station. The health monitoring system also retrieves health status data from UUVs that are periodically docked in the docking station, and transmits this data to the remote station.
