Abstract :
Unmanned Underwater Vehicles have gained popularity for the last decades, especially for the purpose of not risking human life in dangerous operations. On the other hand, underwater environment introduces numerous challenges in control, navigation and communication of such vehicles.Certainly, this fact makes the development of these vehicles more interesting and engineering-wise more attractive.Conventional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers exhibit moderately good performance once the PID gains are properly tuned. However, when the dynamic characteristics of the system are time dependent or the operating conditions of the system vary, it is necessary to retune the gains to obtain desired performance. Self-tuning of PID controllers has emerged as a new and active area of research with the advent and easy availability of algorithms and computers. The proposed study discusses self-tuning (auto-tuning) algorithm for the control of remotely operated vehicles (ROV).
