Field trials of a 4 m long, 180 kg, unmanned surface vehicle (USV) have been conducted to
evaluate the performance of station-keeping heading and position controllers in an outdoor …

Experimental testing of an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) has been performed to evaluate
the performance of two low-level controllers when displacement and drag properties are …

In this paper, a concept design for automated launch and recovery (L&R) of a small
autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) from an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) is …

In-water tests of automated launch and recovery (L&R) of a Hydroid REMUS 100
autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) from a station-keeping 16-ft wave adaptive modular …

In this paper, a response model of an Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) with a pod-like
propulsion device is established. To improve the robustness of motion control in heavy sea …

This paper is concerned with the problem that fast-transient response and excellent
robustness cannot be satisfied simultaneously in the process of dynamic positioning (DP) for …

In this paper, a method of incorporating multiobjective controller selection into a closed-loop
control system is presented and validated using a full-sized unmanned surface vehicle …

During the mission at sea, the ship steering control to yaw motions of the intelligent
autonomous surface vessel (IASV) is a very challenging task. In this paper, a quantum …

Thruster configurations play an important role on performances of unmanned surface
vehicles (USVs). Knowing advantages and disadvantages of each thruster configuration is …

An excellent navigation, guidance, and control (NGC) system had a high impact on trajectory
tracking and the following scenarios. Both scenarios will include the heading, tangent, and …
