Abstract
This paper develops a state feedback controller that forces underactuated ships to globally ultimately track a straight line under environmental disturbances induced by wave, wind and ocean current. The control development is based on the backstepping technique and some technical lemmas introduced for a nonlinear system with non-vanishing disturbances. Simulation results on a 32 meters long ship are presented to validate the proposed controller.
