    Abstract

    This paper treats L1 adaptive hovering control of an unmanned surface vehicle in a station-keeping mode where a region of zero control authority and under-actuation are main challenges. Low-speed and reversing dynamics are identied from full scale sea trials, and parameter uncertainty is estimated. With signicant parameter variation, an L1 adaptive controller is employed for heading control. The L1 family of controllers allows for several topologies and an architecture is suggested that suits heading control of a vessel, the requirements of which dier from that of previous L1 literature. The control design is tackled directly in discrete time to allow a fast embedded implementation in the vehicle. Analysis of robustness, tracking performance and wave disturbance response are detailed in the paper.
