A dual model predictive control (DMPC) method based on virtual trajectory is proposed in
this paper, in order to achieve autonomous cooperative formation control of underactuated …

In order to enhance the large curvature path following performance of unmanned surface
vehicle (USV), an improved Stanley guidance law (ISGL) is proposed. To the best of our …

An adaptive sliding mode control algorithm based on radial basis function neural networks
(RBF-NNs) is proposed to solve the problems of external disturbances, internal model …

The paper designs a finite-time output feedback path following control strategy of
underactuated marine surface vehicle (MSV) with the unavailable velocity, the unknown …

In order to solve the problems of uncertain model, unknown disturbances and overshoot in
the process of ship path following, an active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) for ship …

To ensure the safety of near-shore activities, efficient coastal monitoring equipment must be
installed. Coastal monitoring has become a priority in integrated marine management …

In the process of ship navigation, due to the characteristics of large inertia and large time
delay, overshoot can easily occur in the process of path following. Once the ship deviates …

Path following and obstacle avoidances are used in heading control and path replanning for
unmanned surface vessels (USVs), which have attracted the interest of many researchers …

This study proposes a new line-of-sight guidance method based on position prediction that
constructs the total path deviation by predicting the future time position of ships. This method …

The autonomous navigation of unmanned surface vehicles (USV) depends mainly on
effective ship target detection to the nearby water area. The difficulty of target detection for …
