Stabilization of an Underactuated Surface Vessel Based on Adaptive Sliding Mode and Backstepping Control

The paper studied controlling problem of an underactuated surface vessel with unknown interferences. It proved that the control problem of underactuated surface vessel can be transformed into the stabilization analysis of two small subsystems. This controller was designed by backstepping method and...
