Abstract :
The track-keeping control of a hovercraft is considered. The hovercraft dynamic model is nonlinear and underactuated. In this paper, a control law is established that drives the sway velocity error and heading error to zero. Simulation tests are carried out for illustrating the effectiveness of the proposed method.
