  • The characteristics of ship formation control were studied, and its current situation and methods were analyzed from the aspects of the structure of ship formation control, formation path planning, formation motion modeling, and formation motion control. The principle of ship formation control was introduced, and the mathematical representation methods and application scenarios of leader-follower structure, virtual structure, graph theory structure, and behavior-based structure of ship formations were described. For the path planning of ship formations, the latest methods and characteristics of formation environment modeling, global path planning, and local collision avoidance planning were summarized, and the local collision avoidance effect of ship formations based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm was demonstrated. For the motion modeling of ship formation control, a hydrodynamic model of ship formations considering the disturbance, control delay, and constraints was built and verified in the contral scenario of a ship formation passing through the lock waterway. For the motion control of ship formations, the characteristics of typical centralized, decentralized, and distributed formation controllers were summarized. It was pointed out that the distributed formation controller had better robustness and scalability, and hence, a formation navigation controller based on the distributed model predictive control was designed. Analysis results show that the technical bottleneck of ship formation control is mainly reflected in the aspects such as the integration of manned/unmanned formations, inland ship formation control mainly based on shore-side driving and control, ship formation control under uncertain disturbances, robust ship formation control under communication constraints, ship formation control in special waters, and consistency of ship formation control. In the future development of ship formations, the following key problems should be addressed: distributed collaborative control of ship formations, diversified control of ship formation tasks, ship formation control based on the biological group mechanism, ship formation control in special waters, and application of artificial intelligence technology in ship formation control.

    Compared with other forms of motion formation control, the particularity of ship formation control is mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1) The navigation environment of ship formation is complex and varied, and it is simultaneously affected by factors such as wind, waves, currents, and limited water areas[19]Due to the characteristics of high inertia, underactuation, and control delay in ship maneuvering, the difficulty of ship formation path planning, formation control, and path control is greater; 3) The problem of reliable control of ship formations under communication limitations or failures caused by navigation environments is significant[20]The ship formation navigation system mainly includes subsystems such as environmental perception, situational awareness, and formation control. Among them, the ship formation control subsystem mainly implements functions such as task allocation, formation organization and transformation, formation collision avoidance planning, formation motion modeling, and formation collaborative control, which are the basis for realizing ship formation navigation.

    Figure  1.  Ship formation control principle

    Formation control structure, also known as formation control method in some literature, mainly refers to the form of formation construction and operation. At present, typical ship formation structures include leader follower structure, virtual structure, behavior based structure, graph theory based structure, artificial potential field structure, composite structure, etc.

    The leader follower structure uses one ship in the formation as the leading ship and the other ships as follower ships. By planning the navigation trajectory of the leading ship, the follower ships track the trajectory of the leading ship at a desired angle and distance through specific control laws. A typical leader follower structure based on line of sight navigation isFigure 2As shown[26].Figure 2Two coordinate systems are defined in the document: one is an inertial coordinate systemxoOoyo, that is, taking a fixed point on the surface of the Earth as the originOoTo the north isxoThe axis is in the positive direction, and the positive east direction isyoAxis positive direction; The other is a shipiAttached coordinate systemx(b, i)O(b, i), y(b, i), i.e. by shipiThe center is the originO(b, i), ShipiThe longitudinal section from the stern to the bow direction isx(b, i)Axis positive direction, shipiThe direction perpendicular to the mid longitudinal plane pointing to the starboard side isy(b, i)Axis positive direction.Figure 2In the middle, shipsiFor navigation ships, vesselsjAnd shipsj+1 is to follow the ship. shipiWith shipsjTarget tracking distancedi, jTracking angle with the targetΦi, jDefined as

    Encarnacao et al[27]By using unmanned surface vessels as leaders and underwater vehicles as followers, the coordinated control of trajectory and path tracking for two ships has been achieved; Considering that the leader follower structure may cause the entire formation to collapse in the event of a leader malfunction or unknown status, Pereira et al[28]The cooperative navigation method was proposed, which means that the follower is simultaneously influenced by both the leader and other followers, reducing the reliance on the leader alone; Li Yun and others[29]Divide the ship formation control process into two stages: leader follower and follower follower, in order to compensate for the shortcomings of centralized control in a single leader follower structure. Selecting a virtual leader in the formation can also overcome the problems of one-way information flow and lack of feedback in the traditional leader follower structure[30-33]In order to enhance the stability and reliability of ship formation control and reduce reliance on the leader, some scholars have proposed a leader follower structure where followers only follow their own former counterparts. This structure provides a foundation for implementing distributed computing for formation control[34]The leader follower structure is simple and easy to implement, but the leader and follower are independent of each other, making it difficult to obtain follower tracking feedback.

    Virtual structure treats the entire formation as a rigid body, with each individual in the formation being a relatively fixed point within the rigid body. When the formation moves in the form of a rigid body, the individual tracks its relative position within the rigid body as the target[35]After the formation of the ship formation is established, each ship has its corresponding reference point, such asFigure 3As shown. In the picture{x1, x2...} is the state vector of each vessel in the fleet. By designing a formation controller, the formation state can be controlled by{x1, x2...} Migration to{x'1, x'2...}.

    Figure  3.  Virtual structure based ship formation

    The current methods for resolving behavioral conflicts mainly include behavior inhibition method, weighted average method, fuzzy logic method, and zero space method. Among them, the zero space method is widely adopted because it can partially or completely complete low priority tasks while completing high priority tasks.

    Formation control based on behavioral structure is usually executed according to behavioral rules, which is difficult to quantitatively analyze from a mathematical perspective, leading to problems such as unpredictable formation behavior and low stability of formation control.

    Figure  4.  Directed graph and undirected graph based ship formation structures

    In recent years, the artificial potential field formation structure has also been applied in intelligent agent formation control[49]The basic principle is to establish different potential fields to control the movement of formation objects. Introducing an artificial potential field structure with a virtual leader, such asFigure 5As shown[50]The dashed line in the figure represents the effect of potential field forces. The virtual navigation ship maintains the ships in the formation near it through the gravitational field, and the ships in the formation maintain a safe distance through mutual repulsion field. The artificial potential field structure algorithm is concise and flexible, but it can easily cause the formation to fall into local minima.

    Figure  7.  Principle of ship formation path planning

    (1) Binary method. The binarization method is the simplest way to model environments, which only requires converting map information into a logical matrix. In the map matrix, 1 represents the passable area and 0 represents the impassable area. For the convenience of expression, map matrices are usually displayed as binary images, such asFigure 8 (a)As shown, the black polygonal area represents obstacles, and the blank area represents passable areas. Fast random tree and other algorithms rely on binary maps[53].

    Figure  8.  Environment modelling approach

    (2) Visual visualization method. Visual representation is a common method for constructing graphical models[54]The visual map method forms a line of sight map by connecting the edges of vertices that are visible to each other. If there are no obstacles between the two connection points, they are considered visibleFigure 8 (b)As shown.

    (4) Grid method. Grid method is a commonly used graphic model, including honeycomb grid, triangular grid, square grid, etc. Among them, honeycomb grid is often used in some common game map building modules, while square grid is more commonly used in daily use, such asFigure 8 (d)As shown.

    Global path planning for ship formation is to provide feasible paths from the starting point to the endpoint for ship formation. From the perspective of computational principles, global path planning algorithms can be divided into two types: heuristic search algorithms and optimization algorithms. The heuristic search algorithm mainly covers A-Star (A)*)Algorithm[56]Fast Marching (FM) algorithm[57]Rapid exploring Random Tree (RRT) algorithm[58]Wait; Optimization algorithms mainly include genetic algorithms[59]Simulated Annealing Algorithm[60]Ant colony optimization algorithm[61]Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm[62]Tianniu Xu Search Algorithm[63]Wait.

    The potential field method was used as the modeling method for the formation environment, and the particle swarm optimization algorithm was utilized to achieve the local collision avoidance path of the ship formation. The local collision avoidance path of the formation is as follows:Figure 9As shown.

    Figure  9.  Anti-collision path of ship formation based on particle swarm optimization

    In summary, there are various ways for ship formation path planning, from map modeling to global path planning and local collision avoidance. Choosing different combinations of methods can effectively solve problems in different scenarios. If the grid method is used to model the global path planning map, the global path planning algorithm should choose A*Algorithms are beneficial in reducing computational complexity when searching for the optimal path; Using the potential field method in local collision avoidance map modeling can more intuitively and conveniently describe the degree of danger of obstacles, making it easier to achieve formation collision avoidance, etc; Reinforcement learning has better collision avoidance performance when dealing with known water bodies.

    Considering the significant impact of control saturation and time delay on ship formation motion control[79-80]On the one hand, it is necessary to constrain the movement of ship formations, and on the other hand, delay needs to be considered in the motion model.

    The constraints on ship formation motion include formation control input constraints and state constraints. shipiThe input constraint can be represented as

    \left[\begin{array}{c} \tau_{x, i, \min } \\ \tau_{y, i, \min } \\ \tau_{r, i, \min } \end{array}\right] \leqslant {\mathit{\pmb{τ}}}_i \leqslant\left[\begin{array}{c} \tau_{x, i, \max } \\ \tau_{y, i, \max } \\ \tau_{r, i, \max } \end{array}\right] (6)

    The ship requires a time interval from the issuance of control input instructions to their executionTThis can lead to an increase in overshoot of the control system, a decrease in control accuracy, but usually control delayTSmall in size, with limited impact on control performance. Sometimes, in order to achieve more precise control effects, control delay is also considered in the formation model (5)

    Using the "Container" ship in the Marine Systems Simulator of MATLAB toolbox as the object, the constructed ship formation motion model was used to achieve the coordinated control of ship formation through a 5-level lock. The changes in ship speed, bow direction, and lateral spacing during the formation navigation control were as follows:Figure 11As shown.

    Figure  11.  States of ship formation navigation control

    The types of ship formation motion control can be divided into centralized formation motion controller, decentralized formation motion controller, and distributed formation motion controller[81].

    The entire ship formation control system has only one centralized formation motion controller, which can control all ships in the formation. The controller structure is as followsFigure 12As shown[82]In the pictureuiujxixjandyiyjFor ships respectivelyijThe controller output vector, state vector, and controller input vector. The centralized formation control method is simple and easy to implement, but it requires high system robustness. Once the centralized controller fails, it will affect the safety of the entire formation navigation.

    Figure  12.  Structure of centralized ship formation controller
    Figure  13.  Structure of decentralized ship formation controller

    The distributed formation motion controller also decomposes the entire ship formation motion controller into multiple independent subsystems, each of which is controlled by a local controller, but the local controllers are interrelated and share information with each other. Its control structure is as followsFigure 14As shown. Compared with centralized control, distributed control shares the computational pressure, and the failure of any ship generally does not cause the collapse of the entire formation system, making it more robust. Compared with decentralized control, distributed control can achieve overall optimization through cooperation between local controllers. In addition, the distributed formation motion control method also has the advantages of strong scalability and high reliability.

    Table 3When applying the formation motion control method to ship formation motion control, it is necessary to design corresponding types of ship formation controller deployment, such as distributed, decentralized, centralized, etc. Taking into account the requirements for ship formation motion control, this paper proposes the Distributed Model Predictive Control (DMPC) method[93]It is a typical distributed ship formation control method, which has been successfully applied to object covered robot formations[94]Aircraft formation[95]Vehicle formation[96]In fields such as ship formation. In terms of ship formation control, Chen et al[97-98]A distributed collaborative model predictive control method for ship formation was proposed, which achieved collaborative control of mixed formation of autonomous and manually operated ships; Zheng et al[99]A distributed collaborative model predictive control method was used to achieve collision avoidance control for automatic guided ship formations on water. To achieve multi ship formation navigation control, a multi ship formation navigation optimization problem was constructed based on the model predictive control method with multiple constraints set. The Alternative Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) was used to achieve distributed and efficient computing.

    Based on the idea of distributed formation control, the principle of distributed model predictive controller for ship formation is as follows:Figure 15As shown. Specifically, the ship formation control targets are assigned to each vessel through the formation structure, and the specific tasks and target paths of each vessel are obtained; Constructing a multi-objective optimization problem for ship formation considering multiple constraints such as speed, input, and spacing, utilizing ADMM and DMPC to achieve distributed solution of the problem, and ensuring the coordination and convergence of ship formation navigation.

    Figure  15.  Design for distributed model predictive controller of ship formation

    Looking at the research results both domestically and internationally, the current focus is on controlling ship formations in open waters, with a particular emphasis on issues such as maintaining ship formations, avoiding collisions, and tracking formation paths. However, there is a lack of research on issues such as the integration of manned/unmanned ships in ship formations, remote control, uncertain interference, limited communication, and special water areas. The specific manifestations are as follows.

    In some special water areas, such as polar waters, ship lock waters, etc., the conditions for ship formation navigation in water areas are significantly different from those in open water areas. For example, the sailing speed of ships in the approach channel and chamber waters of ship locks is usually required to be less than 2 m · s-1And located in restricted waters, its motion model needs to consider factors such as low speed, shore wall effect, shallow water effect, and close distance between ships, which increases the difficulty of ship formation navigation control. Considering that the motion mechanism of ships in ice and restricted waters is still not clear enough, and the navigation strategy, navigation control, risk control and other issues during formation navigation still need to be studied, it is urgent to solve the problems of analyzing the characteristics of ship formation navigation in special waters, controlling the speed and distance under tight formation conditions, and identifying and controlling the risks of formation navigation.

    (1) Distributed collaborative control of ship formation

    Target encirclement and target coverage are not controlled by a single geometric shape, but rather a special formation control method aimed at encircling and covering targets, which has been applied in multi-agent system control. The target encirclement and coverage of ship formations have broad application prospects in military, emergency search and rescue, underwater detection and other fields. However, there is currently little research on this topic, and the targets of ship formation encirclement and coverage may be multiple dynamic targets, such as enemy ship encirclement, underwater obstacle target coverage, etc. Therefore, future ship formation control tasks not only include traditional tasks such as path tracking, obstacle avoidance, and formation transformation, but also need to develop towards diversified tasks such as target encirclement and coverage.

    (4) Special water area vessel formation control

    The low efficiency and high safety risks of ship navigation in restricted waters (such as lock waters, bridge area waters, etc.) have become important factors restricting the improvement of inland waterway transportation capacity. Taking the ship formation passing through the lock as an example, currently multiple ships are widely used to enter and exit the lock chamber in sequence, greatly reducing the space utilization of ships in the lock water area (mainly including the approach channel, navigation wall, lock chamber, etc.). Synchronized gate crossing formation control of ships can greatly improve the efficiency and safety of ship entry and exit gates. The three-dimensional effect of multi ship formation gate crossing is as followsFigure 16As shown. At present, there is an urgent need to solve technical problems such as modeling the behavior of ship formations passing through gates, modeling the motion of restricted water areas, and multi-objective distributed optimization control. In order to ensure the safety and economy of ships sailing in polar regions, formation navigation is usually adopted[106]Formation navigation can not only reduce the risk of single ship navigation, but also improve the economy of the entire ship formation navigation. With the gradual commercialization of the Arctic shipping route, future ship fleet navigation in polar waters has broad application prospects.

    Figure  16.  3D effect of ship formation in lock waterway

    (5) Application of Artificial Intelligence Technology in Ship Formation Control

    (2) As a branch of multi-agent control, research on ship formation control is still in the theoretical method research stage compared to aircraft formation control, vehicle formation control, and robot formation control. The testing and application of ship formation navigation in real scenarios have not been extensively carried out.

    (3) The integration of manned/unmanned ship formations, robust and consistent control of formations in complex navigation environments, control of ship formations in special water areas, and control of ship formations under communication limitations all urgently need to be addressed.

    (4) Distributed computing, artificial intelligence, biomimetic technology, advanced sensing technology, and high bandwidth low latency communication technology provide important technical support for the realization of future ship formations, and new development opportunities have emerged for ship formation navigation.
