Abstract:In this article, a novel cable-drogue docking system is proposed between an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) and one mobile underwater platform, to increase the docking safety and reduce the negative influences of turbulences around the platform shell on the AUV. The mathematical model of the cable-drogue system and an radial basis function neural network (RBFNN)-based Q-learning proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller are developed for the system characteristics analysis and the stabilized cont… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
