Today, there is a rising trend toward subsea infrastructures such as pipelines, telecommunication cables, or wind farms which demands potent vehicles for underwater work. To this end, a new generation of vehicles, large and Extra-Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (XLUUVs), is currently being engineered that allow for long-range, remotely controlled, and semi-autonomous missions in the deep sea. However, although these vehicles are already heavily developed and demand state-of-the-art communi- cation technologies to realize their autonomy, no dedicated test and development environments exist for research, e.g., to assess the implications on cybersecurity. Therefore, in this paper, we present XLab-UUV, a virtual testbed for XLUUVs that allows researchers to identify novel challenges, possible bottlenecks, or vulnerabilities, as well as to develop effective technologies, protocols, and procedures.}, keywords = {Maritime Simulation Environment, XLUUV, Cyber Range, Autonomous Shipping, Operational Technology}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2023/2023-wolsing-xluuvlab.pdf}, publisher = {IEEE}, booktitle = {1st IEEE LCN Workshop on Maritime Communication and Security (MarCaS)}, event_place = {Daytona Beach, Florida, USA}, event_name = {1st IEEE LCN Workshop on Maritime Communication and Security (MarCaS)}, event_date = {Oktober 1-5, 2023}, state = {accepted}, language = {en}, DOI = {10.1109/LCN58197.2023.10223405}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Wolsing, Konrad and Saillard, Antoine and Padilla, Elmar and Bauer, Jan} }
