Robust Synchronization of Multiple Marine Vessels With Time-Variant Disturbance and Communication Delays

In this paper, we discuss the problem of motion synchronization for a formation of marine vessels with the unknown, external disturbance. A novel distributed control algorithm is proposed, which comprises a disturbance observer and a synchronization controller. The disturbance observer is constructe...
