Abstract

In this paper, an adaptive trajectory tracking
control algorithm for underactuated unmanned surface
vessels (USVs) with guaranteed transient performance is
proposed. To meet the realistic dynamical model of USVs,
we consider that the mass and damping matrices are not
diagonal and the input saturation problem. Neural Networks
(NNs) are employed to approximate the unknown external
disturbances and uncertain hydrodynamics of USVs. Moreover,
both full state feedback control and output feedback
control are presented, and the unmeasurable velocities of
the output feedback controller are estimated via a highgain
observer. Unlike the conventional control methods,
we employ the error transformation function to guarantee
the transient tracking performance. Both simulation and
experimental results are carried out to validate the superior
performance via comparing with traditional potential integral
(PI) control approaches.
