Abstract


The evaluation of performance and reliability is crucial for the effective deployment and operation of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs). This paper focuses on the development of standardized testing procedures and metrics to assess the performance and reliability of the UUV Rajaampat in underwater inspection missions. A comprehensive testing framework is proposed, encompassing various aspects such as navigation accuracy, sensor data quality, communication reliability, power efficiency, and fault detection capabilities. The procedures include both laboratory-based testing and field trials in real-world underwater environments. Metrics are defined to quantitatively measure the UUV's performance in each aspect, enabling objective assessment and comparison. The proposed standardized testing procedures and metrics ensure consistency and reliability in evaluating the UUV's performance and provide valuable insights for design improvements and operational decision-making. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed testing framework in accurately assessing the performance and reliability of the UUV Rajaampat, facilitating its successful deployment for underwater inspection tasks.
