Styrning av undervattensfarkost

This report summarizes a master-thesis project where the goal has been to control a submarine vehicle. The vehicle is used to take video films of the bottom of the sea. For this reason, it is desired to keep the vehicle at a constant distance over the sea bottom. The workconsist of a model-building phase, where a frequency-response experiment is performed on the vehicle. Based on this model, several different control strategies are suggested and tested through both simulations and real test on the submarine vehicle.
