Popis: This paper addresses the development of propulsion system in an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) UX-1. This robot is designed to explore the flooded mine in 500 meters depth and according to design requirements, the robot requires high maneuverability in limited work space in the mine. Consequently that implies developing creative subsystems for mobility of the AUV. Limited power source on board, small size pressure hull and the total weight of the robot indicates development of efficient subsystems for driving the robot in the mine for five hours.
