Область применения автономных необитаемых подводных аппаратов (АНПА) сегодня весьма обширна и постоянно увеличивается. Все чаще рассматриваются варианты группового применения аппаратов для повышения скорости и эффективности выполнения работ. Одно из приоритетных направлений управления группой аппаратов мультиагентная система управления, которая, несомненно, имеет значительные преимущества перед централизованной и сегодня представляет собой одно из наиболее перспективных направлений в области подводного роботостроения. Для создания таких систем требуется решение большого количества технических проблем, среди которых можно выделить две основные задачи: обеспечение эффективной координации аппаратов при их групповом применении и создание программной платформы, обеспечивающей взаимодействие большого количества разнородных устройств и программ. Вопросам создания технических средств обеспечения функционирования АНПА в мультиагентной среде посвящена настоящая статья.The field of application of Autonomous uninhabited underwater vehicles (AUV) is very extensive today and is constantly increasing. More and more often options of group application of devices are being considered for enhance of effectiveness and speed of mission completion. One of the priority areas for managing a group of devices is a multiagent control system (MAS), which undoubtedly has significant advantages over a centralized one and today represents one of the most promising areas in the field of underwater robot engineering. The creation of such systems requires the solution of many technical problems, among which there are two main tasks: ensuring the effective coordination of devices in their group application and creating a software platform that provides interaction of a large number of heterogeneous devices and programs. This article is devoted to the creation of technical means to ensure the functioning of AUV in a multi-agent environment.

Multiagent systems controlling robots can have different structures, depending on a way of generating decision in these systems. Decisions can be work out in centralized, decentralized or even hybrid way (hybrid system is a connection of both centralized and decentralized systems). In the case of controlling a team of underwater vehicles, it is significant to examine different structures of multiagent systems for choosing the best one for defined underwater task. In the paper, results of operation of three different structures (centralized, dispersed - decentralized and hybrid) of multiagent control systems of underwater vehicles team were presented. The systems were tested in predator-prey problem. In this problem, a team of three underwater vehicles had to catch another underwater robot escaping with larger velocity.

The article presents the control system of a single underwater vehicle which is a member of the underwater vehicles team. The application of the multi-agent system concept for modelling and controlling a team of homogeneous underwater vehicles is discussed. Issues relating to cooperation actions in the team of underwater vehicles are described and solved using the theory of games and vector quality index. The process of negotiations between the vehicles is modelled as a multiplayer cooperative game. Finally, the water region search tasks performed by a team of cooperating underwater vehicles are presented and discussed taking into account possible vehicle failures happening during task realization.
