Abstract
A robust adaptive prescribed performance control (RAPPC) law is proposed for dynamic positioning (DP) of ships subject to unknown time-varying disturbances with the control input magnitude and rate constraints. A simple error mapping function is first constructed to achieve the DP prescribed performance control design. Next, an adaptive disturbance observer is proposed to online estimate the unknown time-varying disturbances and an auxiliary dynamic system is introduced to addresses the effects of the input magnitude and rate constraints. Then, incorporating the above into the dynamic surface control method, the DP control law with prescribed performance is proposed. Theoretical analysis and simulation results prove that the proposed DP RAPPC law makes the ship's position and heading be maintained at the desired values with prescribed positioning performance.
