Abstract

The design project and realization approach to simulate ship-rudder control system with course & track autopilot in real navigation environment are introduced which combine digital simulation with physical simulation. Various math models are established during the process of ship movements. The main control software and single-chip microcomputer system used for the actual ship simulation system are developed. The system shows great economic benefit to reduce the cost for manufacturing and maintaining autopilots.
