A Decomposition Algorithm for Attitude Control of the Remotely Operated Vehicle at Large Pitch and Roll Angles

摘要

The paper deals with the issue of developing an attitude control system for a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for large inclination angles (pitch, roll). The construction of the orientation control system is considered based on the traditional approach using Euler angles (yaw, pitch and roll). A transfer matrix general form of the ROV attitude control system was obtained. It was shown that with the increase of inclination angles the transfer matrix of the system becomes multivariable. Algorithms of disturbances compensation and a methodology for parameters selection for decomposition algorithm were proposed. The obtained results were verified during the in situ tests of the ROV “Iznos”, developed in Bauman Moscow State Technical University (BMSTU). The proposed decomposition algorithms allow to expand the ranges of working angles and to improve the quality of the control system performance without significant re-engineering of its structure.
