Abstract
The adaptive autopilots are based on velocity scheduling, a self-tuning regulator for steady state course keeping, a high gain turning regulator with variable structure, and a Kalman filter. Results from simulations and full-scale experiments on three different tankers are presented. The autopilots are shown to work excellently under different loads, speed and weather conditions.
