This paper considers the cooperative path following problem of multiple marine surface vehicles subject to input saturation, unknown dynamical uncertainty and unstructured ocean disturbances, and partial knowledge of the reference velocity. The control design is categorized into two envelopes. Path following for each vehicle amounts to reducing an appropriately defined geometric error. Vehicles coordination is achieved by exchanging the path variables, as determined by the communications topology adopted. The control design is developed with the aid of the neural network-based dynamic surface control (DSC) technique, an auxiliary design, and a distributed estimator. The key features of the developed controllers are as follows. First, the neural network-based adaptive DSC technique allows for handling the unknown dynamical uncertainty and ocean disturbances without the need for explicit knowledge of the model, and at the same time simplify the cooperative path following controllers by introducing the first-order filters. Second, input saturations are incorporated into the cooperative path following design, and the stability of the modified control solution is verified. Third, the amount of communications is reduced effectively due to the distributed speed estimator, which means the global knowledge of the reference speed is relaxed. Under the proposed controllers, all signals in the closed-loop system are guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded. Simulation results validate the performance and robustness improvement of the proposed strategy.
