Underwater networks are becoming increasingly popular due to its increased applicability in
the modern communication era. Underwater Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are highly
manoeuvrable underwater robot that can find its application in military, commercial and
scientific research. Many researchers have developed ROVs for underwater scenarios. Most
of them are being application specific. This paper provides a qualitative analysis of the
physical design, networking and movement control of ROV.
