Enclosing Control

Single USV Enclosing Control

  • To slove the enclosing control problem of multiple unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) without the velocity information of the target, a cooperative enclosing control protocol is presented to achieve that a single USV can enclosing the moving target with collision avoidance and connectivity maintanence.
  • Barrier Lyapunov functions (BLFs) are introduced to ensure these relative distance and angle constraints in this research.
  • Numerical simulation results, 3D Unreal Engine simulation results and real experiments demonstrate the performance of the proposed control protocol.

Multi-USVs Enclosing Control

  • Compared with the Single USV , it is obvious that multiple USVs has more advantages on enclosing the moving target. And the cooperative enclosing motions of multiple USVs are determined by maintaining the target-vehicle relative distance constraints and the inter-vehicle angle constraints.
  • A cooperative enclosing control protocol is presented to achieve that all USVs converge to the desired spacing from neighboring vehicles while guaranteeing prescribed transient and steady-state performance.
  • The Prescribed Performance Control(PPC) technology ensures the convergence speed and accuracy of the error.
  • Numerical simulation results, 3D Unreal Engine simulation results and real experiments demonstrate the performance of the proposed control protocol.
