The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Oregon State University (OSU) to design, fabricate, and test an autonomous underwater vehicle dock which could utilize wave energy to provide both power and communications to an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The dock would be a wave energy converter-autonomous underwater vehicle dock (WEC-AUV docking system).
