Disclosed is a guide cable based apparatus for an unmanned vehicle recovering an autonomous underwater vehicle, characterized in that the apparatus comprises an unmanned surface vehicle, a recovery device carried on the unmanned surface vehicle, an autonomous underwater vehicle to be recovered or launched, and a guide and recovery control system arranged on the autonomous underwater vehicle, wherein an underwater acoustic transducer is arranged at the bottom of the unmanned surface vehicle and is used for underwater acoustic communication between the unmanned surface vehicle and the autonomous underwater vehicle; a hydraulic telescopic rod connected to the recovery device is arranged in a cabin of the unmanned surface vehicle, and movement of the recovery device in a vertical direction can be achieved by means of the hydraulic telescopic rod; and an arc-shaped guide arm and cable mooring pliers are arranged at a top end of the bow of the autonomous underwater vehicle. The beneficial effect that the present invention has lies in that the apparatus and method for using a guide cable to automatically recover an AUV by taking an USV as a water surface platform are provided to overcome the defects of the prior technical means that water surface launching and recovery are greatly influenced by sea wind and waves, and there are personnel and equipment safety risks.
