A Novel Bio-Controller for Localizing Pollution Sources in a Medium Peclet Environment

摘要

Nature inspired solutions enable biological systems to adapt and accomplish their tasks in very noisy and uncertain environments.Taking inspiration from nature,a novel bacteria controller capable of finding the source of pollution in an underwatermedium turbulent environment is presented in this paper.Experiments prove that the controller is capable of performing pollutionsource exploration,pollution plume transverse and source declaration in a medium Peclet environment without distinctivelyseparating these three components as most researchers did.The results obtained from these experiments are considered asa step towards the deployment of robotic fish in a highly turbulent marine environment.Finally,a brief conclusion and futureextension are presented.
