Abstract

The paper introduces a proposal of an Autonomous Navigation System for Unmanned Surface Vessels. The system architecture is presented with a special emphasis on collision avoidance and maneuver auto-negotiation. For the purpose of maneuver auto-negotiation, the concept of multi-agent systems has been applied. The algorithm developed for the task of collision avoidance is briefly described and the results of the simulation tests, confirming the effectiveness of applied method, are also given. Presented outcomes include solutions of test scenarios from the perspectives of different ships taking part in the considered situations, confirming the applicability of the collision avoidance algorithm in the process of maneuver auto-negotiation.
