Wind Disturbance Suppression in Autopilot Design

Environmental conditions affects ship’s course. Hence, it affects velocity, and efficiency of fuel consumption, which is an important research topic nowadays. Therefore, it is important to take it into account in the design of ship’s autopilots. In this paper a method is proposed to compensate for wind’s influence, which is based on wavelet transform by introducing the so called wavelet anti-filter. The anti-filter is added to the feed-forward branch of the classic autopilot design scheme, which consists of feedback loop and PID controller. The anti-filter branch represents a modification of the classic scheme.
