Abstract
The model for calculating the forces of GPS antenna was built based on certain hypothesis, including the mathematics model of resistance, lift forces, added mass forces and wave forces. And the model of navigation precision was also built. Then the simulations were carried out for the torpedo-like AUV's representative navigation motion through the GPS antenna. The simulation results show that the GPS antenna will obviously effect the maneuverability motion of the AUV, but the effect of navigation precision is neglectable, and the torpedo-like AUV can steadily complete the navigate motion.
