Title
Time-varying exponential stabilization of the position and attitude of an underactuated autonomous underwater vehicle.
Abstract
The paper considers feedback stabilization of the position and attitude of an autonomousunderwater vehicle (AUV) with a reduced number of actuators. A nonlinearmodel describing both the dynamics and the kinematics of an AUV is studied. The papershows that previous results on attitude stabilization of a spacecraft can be applied to exponentiallystabilize both the position and attitude of an AUV using only four, possiblythree, actuators. Simulation results are presented.1 IntroductionThe...
