  • Abstract
    Advances in navigation continue to add precision and robustness to undersea operations. This paper describes the integration of the SHARPS II system into two-vehicle operations with the JASON/MEDEA ROV system, allowing precise relative navigation of the two vehicles. This paper details the SHARPS II system as installed on JASON and MEDEA, uses estimation theory to illustrate the potential performance enhancement over the state-of-practice and presents proof-of-concept navigation data from field deployments
