| description | Aiming at the control challenges faced by unmanned surface vessels (USVs) in complex environments, such as nonlinearities, parameter uncertainties, and environmental perturbations, we propose a non-singular terminal integral sliding mode control strategy based on an extended state observer (ESO). The strategy first employs a third-order linear extended state observer to estimate the total disturbances of the USV system, encompassing both external disturbances and internal nonlinearities. Subsequently, a backstepping sliding mode controller based on the Lyapunov theory is designed to generate the steering torque control commands for the USV. To further enhance the tracking performance of the system, we introduce a non-singular terminal integral sliding mode surface with a double power convergence law and redesign the backstepping sliding mode controller for the USV heading control. Meanwhile, to circumvent the differential explosion issue in traditional backstepping control, we simplify the controller design by utilizing a second-order sliding mode filter to accurately estimate the differential signals of the virtual control quantities. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed control algorithm improves the convergence speed, adaptive ability, and anti-interference ability in complex environments compared to traditional linear backstepping sliding mode control, thereby enhancing its engineering practicability. This research offers a more efficient and reliable method for precise heading control and path tracking of USVs in complex and dynamic environments. |
