Structural analysis of the system of autonomous ship navigation and mooring through state graphs

EDN: CQXSLE

Abstract

This paper considers the state models of the system of autonomous guiding and mooring of ships and its key component — tugboat-automate. The
research aims at analyzing the functioning of the system of autonomous ship navigation and mooring, determining possible modes of operation and
conditions of transitions between states, as well as identifying factors affecting the efficiency of operations in the port water area. To formalize the
logic of operation of the system and its components, state graphs describing possible states, transitions between them and external influences are
used. Special attention is paid to the integration of autonomous tugboats, autonomous mooring systems and other automated solutions within a
single system. The developed models serve as a tool for deep understanding of the internal processes of the system, as well as identify bottlenecks
and potential risks, which creates a basis for further improvement of autonomous ship navigation technologies. The results of the work correspond
to the current international trends and the national strategy of the Russian Federation in the field of maritime industry modernization.
