Improved Search and Rescue Methodology for Locating a Missing ROV near the Titanic Site

Article scientifique 2023 Anglais

Résumé

Abstract In underwater search and rescue operations, the timely and accurate location of a missing remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is crucial for successful rescue efforts. This article presents an improved methodology for enhancing the detection and recovery of a recently missing ROV near the Titanic site. The proposed approach involves the deployment of a sonar-based bomb to analyze the acoustic signals and their interactions with the ROV's echoes and the Titanic wreckage. By employing advanced signal processing techniques and collaborating with the Deep-Sea Exploration Laboratory, the aim is to expedite the search and rescue process. In this article, we present a calculation methodology to estimate the remaining oxygen supply for a submerged Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) after 4 days. Considering an initial oxygen supply of 1000 liters and an oxygen consumption rate of 10 liters per hour per person, we analyze the available oxygen and determine the feasibility of the ROV rescue operation. The calculations are based on the assumption of 5 individuals onboard the ROV. The results highlight the importance of timely oxygen replenishment or immediate rescue measures in such situations.
