Research on Tracking Control Technology Based on Fuzzy PID in Underwater Optical Communication

Abstract

In order to realize effective laser communication on underwater mobile platforms, the active tracking and alignment technology of underwater laser communication (UWLC) is studied. Firstly, the servo control principle of the UWLC system is analyzed. Secondly, aiming at underwater disturbance, an adaptive fuzzy PID controller is designed to realize parameter self-tuning, thereby improving the system’s anti-disturbance ability. The designed algorithm was simulated, and the simulation results show that the adaptive fuzzy PID algorithm has better anti-disturbance ability and tracking performance than the traditional PID. Finally, an experimental platform was built for dynamic tracking experiments, and the results show that the dynamic tracking accuracy of the designed control algorithm was improved by 30.29% compared with the traditional control algorithm, which provides a certain reference for the development of laser communication on underwater moving platforms.
