Composition of the Unmanned Control System
The Unmanned Navigation Control System consists of three main components: Autonomous Navigation Integration Controller, Autonomous Navigation Control Station, Autonomous Navigation System , forming a complete Unmanned Vessel Navigation Control System.
Task instructions issued from the Autonomous Navigation Control Station can be executed by autonomously adjusting course and speed according to the planned mission without manual intervention. Functions include autonomous navigation, remote control navigation, information display, data management, geofencing, and situational awareness and so on.
System Function Description
1. Autonomous and Remote Control Navigation
Task instructions issued from the shore-based command station can be executed by autonomously adjusting course and speed according to the planned mission, without human intervention. Functions include track following, video transmission, autonomous collision avoidance, and formation cooperative control.
Supports multiple navigation modes, route planning, waypoint setting, mission tracking, autonomous obstacle avoidance, and formation cooperative control.
Navigation Modes: Support for manual remote control, automatic cruise, intelligent return-to-home, hover mode, computer mode, and temporary mooring;
Route Planning: Support for point-and-click planning based on satellite imagery or electronic nautical charts; support for automatic route planning within circular or rectangular areas; support for automatic route planning in fixed-width areas after setting the trajectory; support for route planning via fixed coordinate point input;
Supported Number of Waypoints: ≥256;
Route Tracking Tasks: Support for single execution (autonomous navigation to the endpoint followed by task termination and standby at location), and loop execution (cyclic execution along start point - waypoint - endpoint - waypoint - start point); navigation speed for each route segment can be set individually;
Formation Cooperative Control: Control of multiple unmanned surface vessels (USV) to navigate in specified formations, with dynamic management of member entry and exit
2. Information Display
Support for real-time display of various navigation data, including real-time navigation trajectory and surrounding environment based on standard S57/S63 electronic charts.
Real-time data display includes: GPS/GTK signal strength, remote controller signal strength, remaining operation time, battery level, power consumption, distance traveled, time elapsed, required power for return, required time for return, and required distance for return.
Standard S57 electronic charts: support zoom in, zoom out, pan, mode switching, and object plotting.
3. Geofencing
Support for multiple geofencing methods including circular fences, annular fences, and manual point marking, to define the navigable water area for the unmanned surface vessel.Fence files support import and export, and can be reused as needed.
4. Situational Awareness
Autonomous Collision Avoidance: Obstacle detection technology based on Millimeter Wave Radar is adopted, enabling detection of obstacles within a 120°arc and a range of 100 meters ahead of the vessel. Upon obstacle detection, strategies such as deceleration, stopping, or detouring can be employed for collision avoidance. Simultaneously, obstacle warnings can be transmitted to the shore-based control station. During mission execution, the shore-based command console can enable or disable the collision avoidance function.
AIS Information Feedback: AIS signals are supported for integration into the electronic chart system. DCPA and TCPA parameters can be configured, and alerts will be triggered when thresholds are exceeded.
Video Transmission: Multiple video streams are supported for real-time remote monitoring of navigation status. Video recording, screenshot capture, and camera rotation are supported.
Remote Voice Broadcasting: The system supports VHF public frequency monitoring and voice broadcasting. Voice signals can be transmitted remotely to the shore station.
Operational Performance Indicators
1. Function Description
Host Control: Remote start and shutdown;
Rudder Angle Control: Full port to full starboard;
Throttle Control: Idle to maximum speed;
2. Operational Accuracy
Under sea state level 3 and speed ≥ 8 knots, straight-line course control accuracy (RMS): ≤ 30 meters; straight-line speed control accuracy (RMS): 1 knot;
3. Formation Control
Number of formation members: ≥ 10 vessels.
Communication Performance Indicators
1. 5G Communication
Communication based on 5G technology.
2. Ad Hoc Network Communication
Remote control frequency bands: 1.15 GHz–1.50 GHz / 450 MHz–650 MHz;
Transmission bandwidth: 2.5M / 5M / 10M / 20M;
Remote control distance: Affected by the placement of the receiver; the higher the location of the shore-based control console signal base station and the fewer surrounding obstructions, the longer the remote control range of the unmanned surface vessel; maximum remote control range ≥ 20 km; Mesh network for swarm formation can be upgraded.
3. Satellite Communication
Remote control frequency band: Provided by satellite communication service provider;
Transmission bandwidth: 2.5M / 5M / 10M;
Remote control distance: Not limited by distance.
