Abstract

The paper treats a design problem of depth control law for a towed ROV with a weight shift mechanism under variations of the towing speed. For the mixed sensitivity problem formulation in applying robust control theory, the parameter perturbations are captured by a norm band of multiplicative perturbations, which is the main contribution of the paper. In order to evaluate a resultant controller obtained by H∞ synthesis, we will investigate nonlinear simulations of the closed-loop system. We can observe that the results of the H∞ synthesis are much better than those of LQ synthesis.
