Description

System and method for collaborative formation of multiple unmanned boats under complex sea conditions
Technical Field
The invention relates to a system and a method for collaborative formation of multiple unmanned boats under complex sea conditions, and belongs to the technical field of unmanned boat collaborative application technology and unmanned boat collaborative formation.
Background
The unmanned surface vehicle is a small-sized surface task platform with autonomous operation capability, and realizes the basic functions of autonomous navigation, autonomous obstacle avoidance, autonomous tracking and the like by carrying sensing equipment such as a GPS, inertial navigation, radar and the like. In addition, different sensing devices can be mounted, and different module devices can be adopted to achieve the task goal. At present, due to the outstanding performance and prospect in the military field, all countries in the world show strong interest in the research and development of military unmanned surface boats. Meanwhile, the unmanned surface vessel has the characteristics of large coverage and low cost in scientific research and civil application, so the unmanned surface vessel also has wide application prospects in the fields.
The cooperative mission of unmanned boats is one way to accomplish the mission with multiple unmanned boats together. The method can effectively overcome the defects that a single boat has a limited perception range to the environment and the form of executing tasks is limited. In practical application, 1+1>2 effect can be achieved. In the field of multi-boat coordination, multi-boat formation is a basic coordination task type, and generally requires that a plurality of boats maintain a fixed formation while advancing to a predetermined target. And then quickly surrounding or quickly striking the target when the target reaches the designated target position.
On the sea surface, the motion of the unmanned ship is greatly influenced by sea waves, and if the influence of the sea waves during actual navigation is not considered, the navigation path of the unmanned ship which is safe and effective is difficult to plan. If the formation mission planning is carried out under the assumption of low sea wave level, and the unmanned boat is actually operated in the environment with high sea wave level, the adjacent unmanned boats participating in the formation are likely to collide. If the formation mission plan suitable for higher safety under higher sea wave level is used, and the formation mission plan actually runs in calm and calm wind, the unmanned boats in the formation are too dispersed to achieve good formation effect due to over conservation.
