  • Abstract
    In order to improve the depth control of an underwater vehicle, a depth adjuster with the moving weight and a servo mechanism is designed. The dynamic model of the interaction between the underwater vehicle and the depth adjuster is analyzed. The terminal sliding mode controller is used to control the displacement of the moving mass and the depth of the whole system. Simulations show that the proposed depth adjuster and its controller are effective and the system can reach the predefined depth.
