Model predictive controller and monitoring systems for marine autonomous surface ships (MASS)
EF 2021-22 · 2021-10-01
Résumé
The goal of this project is to develop a ‘constrained autonomous operation’ for marine autonomous surface ships (MASS) that will operate autonomously with continuous monitoring from an on-shore monitoring centre. Constrained autonomous operation has two main modules: (i) on-board navigation module and (ii) onshore operator station module. The on-board navigation module consists of a guidance system and a dynamic control system. The on-board navigation module will have the capability to autonomously navigate the ship, especially in the free water and under normal conditions. The onshore operator station’s function is to monitor the ship at all time, anticipate any abnormal situation, and, if required, take control of the ship to navigate out of the abnormal situation. Complementing each other, these two modules are expected to ensure efficient and safe navigation during varying operational conditions and changing environments.

Description (French)
L’objectif de ce projet est de mettre au point un système d’exploitation autonome sous contrainte pour les navires de surfaces conçus pour fonctionner de manière autonome tout en étant suivis en continu à partir d’un centre de surveillance situé à terre. L’exploitation autonome sous contrainte s’appuie sur deux modules principaux : i) le module de navigation embarqué, et ii) le module d’exploitation de la station côtière. Le module de navigation embarqué comprend un système de guidage et un système de contrôle dynamique. Le module de navigation embarqué sera capable de diriger le navire de manière autonome, en particulier dans les eaux libres et en conditions normales. La station d’exploitation côtière surveille le navire en continu, anticipe les situations anormales et prend au besoin le contrôle du navire pour l’extraire d’une situation anormale. Ces deux modules complémentaires devraient être capables d’assurer une navigation efficace et sécuritaire dans des conditions opérationnelles variées et des environnements changeants.
Expected Results
In the short term, anticipated outcomes will be strengthened collaborations across industry, academia, and government to support research excellence. In the medium term, anticipated outcomes will be the development of new and potentially disruptive technologies with collaborators. In the long term, find collaborative solutions to public policy challenges and create stronger innovation systems.
Expected Results (French)
À court terme, les résultats prévus seront des collaborations renforcées entre l'industrie, le milieu universitaire et le gouvernement pour soutenir l'excellence en recherche. À moyen terme, les résultats attendus seront le développement de nouvelles technologies potentiellement perturbatrices avec des collaborateurs. À long terme, trouver des solutions collaboratives aux défis des politiques publiques et créer des systèmes d'innovation plus solides.
