Abstract:
This article investigates the leader following of underactuated surface vessels that operate in the presence of environmental disturbances, model uncertainties, and actuator saturation. What makes the design of controller challenging is that the sway cannot be directly controlled. Furthermore, the actuator is formulated with magnitude saturation and rate saturation. To express the effect of magnitude saturation and rate saturation, a continuous function is employed to model actuator. An auxiliary dynamic system is used to solve the problem of magnitude saturation and rate saturation. A disturbance observer is designed to provide estimation of the environmental disturbances and model uncertainties, and achieve finite time convergence of estimation error. A control law is designed based on disturbance observer, backstepping technique, and auxiliary dynamic system. The uniform ultimate boundedness of all signals in the closed‐loop control system is proved. Simulations demonstrate the performance of the proposed controller.
