Abstract: To do a deep research about multi-shipping formation cooperation, we studied the formation control of shipping. To predict the ideal path curves in the movement of the shipping, generalized predictive control method was used. Then the motion control strategy of shipping was brought out. A model of shipping formation control was created in the Cartesian coordinate system using the leader-follower formation method. Based on this model, we built a series of vessels bound track, and got control strategy for follower members. In the simulation experiments we added simulated storm disturbance during the movement of shipping. In the end, the running track of the fleet was obtained.

Key words: generalized predictive control, ship formation, leader-follower, storm disturbance
