Abstract

The paper addresses nonlinear control of an underwater robot. The way-point line of sight scheme is incorporated for the tracking of a desired trajectory. Command signals are generated by an autopilot consisting of four controllers with parameter adaptation law implemented. Quality of control is concerned in presence of environmental disturbances. Some computer simulations are provided to demonstrate effectiveness, correctness and robustness of the approach.
