摘要

Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs), operating in dynamic and complex marine environments, often need to reconfigure their formations to meet diverse mission requirements. This paper introduces a distributed fixed-time prescribed performance control strategy that addresses the challenges of time-varying formation control for multiple ASV system. First, a new augmented fixed-time observer is proposed to estimate fault and disturbance while filtering out measurement noise. A sliding-mode control scheme based on a distributed estimator is then developed. Specifically, a distributed estimator is designed to estimate the virtual leader’s state, and a fixed-time second-order integral sliding surface based on bi-limit homogeneity is introduced. Finally, the simulation is conducted on six networked Cyber-Ships to ensure that the proposed method is valid.
