About
Hanbo Deng is a researcher specializing in bio-inspired underwater robotics and electric current communication for small autonomous underwater vehicles. His work addresses fundamental challenges in underwater communication and robot control, particularly for size- and power-constrained platforms. Deng’s most-cited paper, “Communication distance correlates positively with emitter current in underwater electric current communication” (2016, 8 citations), demonstrates how adjusting emitter current can extend communication range, a critical insight for enabling reliable data exchange among small robot swarms. His earlier study, “Electrode size affects underwater electric current communication between two fish models” (2015, 8 citations), systematically explores how electrode geometry influences signal transmission, providing design guidelines for practical underwater communication systems. In the domain of locomotion control, Deng’s paper “Yaw angle control of a boxfish-like robot based on cascade PID control algorithm” (2015, 6 citations) introduces a model-free cascade PID approach that achieves precise yaw control despite the complex, nonlinear hydrodynamics of fish-like robots. Collectively, Deng’s contributions bridge the gap between biological inspiration and engineering implementation, offering scalable solutions for underwater sensing, exploration, and environmental monitoring. His work is particularly valuable for students and researchers developing compact, energy-efficient underwater robots that must communicate and navigate autonomously in challenging aquatic environments.
