This paper describes the mathematical model and controller design for Manta-type Unmanned Underwater Test Vehicle (MUUTV) with 6 DOF nonlinear dynamic equations. The mathematical model contains hydrodynamic forces and moments expressed in terms of a set of hydrodynamic coefficients which were obtained through the PMM (Planar Motion Mechanism) test. Based on the 6 DOF dynamic equations, numerical simulations have been performed to analyze the dynamic performances of the MUUTV. In addition, using the mathematical model PID and sliding mode controller are constructed for the diving and steering maneuver. Simulation results show that the control performances of the MUUTV and compared with these of NPS (Naval Postgraduate School) AUV II.

This paper describes the mathematical modeling, control algorithm, system design, hardware implementation and experimental test of a Manta-type Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (MUUV). The vehicle has one thruster for longitudinal propulsion, one rudder for heading angle control and two elevators for depth control. It is equipped with a pressure sensor for measuring water depth and Doppler Velocity Log for measuring position and angle. The vehicle is controlled by an on-board PC, which runs with the Windows XP operating system. The dynamic model of 6DOF is derived including the hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on the vehicle, while the hydrodynamic coefficients related to the forces and moments are obtained from experiments or estimated numerically. We also utilized the values obtained from PMM (Planar Motion Mechanism) tests found in the previous publications for numerical simulations. Various controllers such as PID, Sliding mode, Fuzzy and $H{\infty}$ are designed for depth and heading angle control in order to compare the performance of each controller based on simulation. In addition, experimental tests are carried out in a towing tank for depth keeping and heading angle tracking.

The influence of different appendage shape on the characteristics of hydrodynamic forces on Manta-type Unmanned Undersea Test Vehicle(MUUTV) was discussed experimentally. Fuselage only MUUTV model and two types of MUUTV model with different appendage geometries were considered as the subject of discussion Oblique tow experiment was carried out in circulating water channel with three MUUTV models. A point of difference in hydrodynamic force characteristics among three models was indicated. Furthermore, the linear hydrodynamic derivatives obtained from model experiment were compared with theoretical calculation results from slender body theory, added mass theory and etc. Based on the hydrodynamic force characteristics, motion stability of two types of MUUTV model with different appendage geometries was compared each other. Through the above analysis, the more suitable shape of appendage geometry was made clear.

본 논문에서는 Manta 형상 무인잠수정의 자유항주모델을 설계하였고 이를 이용하여 제어실험을 실시하였다. 제작된 MUUTV모형은 직진방향으로 1개의 추진기를 가지고 있으며, 승강타와 방향타를 이용하여 수심 및 방향 제어를 실시하게된다. MUUTV는 수심제어시 사용되는 수심을 측정하기 위한 압력센서, 방향제어를 위해 방향각 측정을 위한 마그네틱 컴파스가 설치되어있으며, 잠수정의 전체적인 운용을 위한 Windows XP기반의 소형 On-board PC104가 장착되어있다. 시뮬레이션에 사용된 6자유도 운동모델은 PMM실험과 이론적 추정을 통해 얻어진 유체동역학계수와 파라미터를 이용하여 구성된다. 잠수정의 운동성능과 제어응답을 비교하기 위해 PID, 슬라이딩모드, 퍼지, 제어기가 설계되었으며, 이를 통해 제어 성능을 비교하고자 하였다. 또한 제작된 모델을 이용하여 수심 및 방향제어 실험을 수조에서 실시하였다.

The authors adopt the Unmanned Undersea Vehicle(UUV), which has taken the shape of manta(Sohn et al. 2006). They call here it Manta-type Unmanned Undersea Test Vehicle(MUUTV). MUUTV is designed with the similar concept of UUV called Manta Test Vehicle(MTV), which was originally built by the Naval Undersea Warfare Center, USA(Lisiewicz and French 2000, Sirmalis et al. 2001, U.S. Navy 2004). The present study deals with evaluation of extreme motion of MUUTV at large attack angles. Extreme motion contains, for example, rising and depth change due to operation of hovering thrusters attached to MUUTV, lateral motion due to ocean current applied to MUUTV at low advance velocity, and so on. Numerical simulation technique has been utilized. The previous mathematical model on manoeuvring motion of MUUTV(Bae et al. 2009a) is basically adopted. Based on the results of present model experiment on extreme motion, the mathematical model is revised and supplemented in order to describe extreme motion. The hydrodynamic derivatives related to extreme motion are obtained from present model experiment and the other derivatives are referred to previous work(Bae et al. 2009a).
