Design of unmanned surface vehicle docking system based on multi-source observation by Dian KONG, Shaolong YANG, Lichun YANG, Xianbo XIANG

“…ObjectivesThis paper proposes a multi-source observation-based recovery bucket guidance docking strategy for the reliable recovery observation and motion goal tracking of unmanned surface vessels (USVs). MethodsDuring the entire docking process, the interference zone of the mother ship's wake is first avoided in order to complete the rough alignment of the USV route; the heading tracking guidance line is then maintained to prepare for terminal docking recovery adjustments; finally, the data obtained by the visual sensor and inertial navigation sensor is filtered and fused to calculate the recovery guidance line, which is then transmitted to the USV. …”
