Motion Planning for Marine Control Systems

• Motion planning is extensively treated in LaValle (2006), while the essential reference on marine control systems is the book by Fossen (2011). Goerzen et al. (2010) reviews motion planning algorithms in terms of computational properties. The book Antonelli (2006) includes the treatment of planning and control in intervention robots. The papers Breivik and Fossen (2008) and Tam et al. (2009) provide a survey of both terminology and guidance design for both open and close space maneuvering. In particular, Tam et al. (2009) links motion planning to navigation rules.
