Description
Summary:During the mission at sea, the ship steering control to yaw motions of the intelligent autonomous surface vessel (IASV) is a very challenging task. In this paper, a quantum neural network (QNN) which takes the advantages of learning capabilities and fast learning rate is proposed to act as the foundation feedback control hierarchy module of the IASV planning and control strategy. The numeric simulations had shown that the QNN steering controller could improve the learning rate performance significantly comparing with the conventional neural networks. Furthermore, the numeric and practical steering control experiment of the IASV BAICHUAN has shown a good control performance similar to the conventional PID steering controller and it confirms the feasibility of the QNN steering controller of IASV planning and control engineering applications in the future.
