In this paper, an expert experience model predictive control strategy is suggested based on the feed forward control of wind and current, and the Kalman filter for the low frequency motion estimation. For the examination of control accuracy and control stability, a pool test of the dynamic positioning system is designed and completed based on the actual situation of the target ship in this paper. The test results with different simulated environments show that the control strategy of dynamic positioning system meets the technical requirements of the target ship with good control accuracy and stability.

The paper presents a method to build MMG model of ship motion for a oil supply vessel (OSV) with dynamic positioning system. It is assumed that the ship motion exposed to environment disturbances like wind, wave & currents, The simulation results show that the model of the vessel and environment disturbances are suitable, and the method is practicable .

ABSTRACT The dynamical positioning system is a complex control consisting of a number of components, including: filters, observers, controllers, and propeller allocation systems. The design and preliminary analysis of operational quality of system operation are usually done based on numerical simulations performed with the aid of the mathematical model of the ship. The article presents a concept of the dynamic positioning system applied to steering the training ship Blue Lady used for training captains in the ship handling research and training centre owned by the Foundation for Safety of Navigation and Environment Protection in Ilawa/Kamionka. The simulation tests performed in the numerical environment of Matlab/Simulink have proved the usability of the designed system for steering a ship at low speed.
