A Dynamic Positioning System Based on Kalman Filtering and Optimal Control
This paper describes a computer-based, dynamic positioning system for floating vessels. The system is based on a detailed mathematical model of vessel motion in response to forces from thrusters, wind, waves and water current. The system uses a Kalman filter for optimal estimation of vessel motions...
