Phased manifold-based RRT*: An optimized motion planning approach for autonomous bow-in berthing of inland vessels

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science
To address the issue of autonomous bow-in berthing for inland vessels under environmental influence, a phased manifold-based rapidly-exploring random tree star (PMRRT*) approach is proposed for the trajectory and posture planning (TPP).

Berthing Trajectory Tracking of Underactuated Surface Vehicle Based on NMPC and Position Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Access
In order to realize waypoint-based automatic berthing alongside or astern, a generation algorithm of dynamic virtual ships is proposed to guide the underactuated surface vehicle (USV). In this paper, a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) problem is
