The object-oriented dynamic task assignment for unmanned surface vessels
Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence, 2021Abstract This paper investigates the task assignment and guidance issues of unmanned surface vessels (USVs) interception. When the USVs formation is invaded by some moving objects during its escort, it is necessary for the unmanned systems to assign defenders to prevent attackers approaching the vulnerable target in antagonistic scenarios.

Nonlinear guidance law design Of unmanned surface vessels
11th IEEE International Conference on Control & Automation (ICCA), 2014Guidance law design of unmanned surface vessel (AUSV) design for ocean environment survey is as important as missions of autonomous vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). As the characteristic depicted, unmanned surface vessel is often used to sail under harsh climates to execute missions.

Location Game of Multiple Unmanned Surface Vessels With Quantized Communications
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs, 2022A placement problem of multiple unmanned surface vessels (USVs) is investigated from a game perspective in this paper. The group of USVs is required to form a desired formation shape, while each USV has its individual objective of being at a particular place relative to the static reference target according to its own benefit.

Robotic simulation of dynamic plume tracking by Unmanned Surface Vessels
2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015Using autonomous mobile robots to dynamically track oil plume propagation in ocean environments is challenging. Based on a model of advection-diffusion equation that describes point-source pollution propagation in marine environments, we have previously proposed a model-based estimator-controller design for autonomous robots to dynamically track plume ...

A nonlinear path following controller for an underactuated unmanned surface vessel
2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2012This work presents a novel path following controller for underactuated unmanned surface vessels (USVs) that is both provably stable and intuitive to tune. The approach consists of a navigation component that computes a desired heading angle to ensure the USV will arrive at the path, and a nonlinear controller to guarantee exponential tracking of surge ...

Predictive and sliding mode cascade control for Unmanned Surface Vessels
Proceedings of the 2011 American Control Conference, 2011This paper presents an optimizing sliding mode cascade control structure that determines the optimal sliding surface parameters for sliding mode control of underactuated Unmanned Surface Vessel systems. A discrete-time, nonlinear model predictive controller is used to update the parameters of the sliding mode control surfaces in order to achieve a ...

Adaptive and Robust Control of an Unmanned Surface Vessel
Volume 1: Development and Characterization of Multifunctional Materials; Modeling, Simulation and Control of Adaptive Systems; Integrated System Design and Implementation, 2013This paper presents an adaptive sliding mode control structure of underactuated unmanned surface vessel systems under parametric uncertainty. The primary motivation in this research is to compensate for disturbances related to the added hydrodynamic forces and moment in the nonlinear control of a three degree-of-freedom marine vessel.
