Horizontal Trajectory Tracking Control for Underactuated Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Based on Contraction Theory

In this paper, contraction theory is applied to design a control law to address the horizontal trajectory tracking problem of an underactuated autonomous underwater vehicle. Suppose that the vehicle faces challenges such as model uncertainties, external environmental disturbances, and actuator satur...
