Abstract

Traffic control parallel two ships requires a lot of knowledge and crews experience. It is recognized as dangerous. So an automatic control algorithm for pair of the vessels participating in the UNREP operation is proposed. It incorporates Model Predictive Controller. The algorithm takes into account the determination of the relative motion parameters and their change in real time. Its idea is based on the relative motion parameters change after transition between global and local coordinate system associated with the center of gravity of the ship to be lightered.
