Abstract

Estimation of the critical latency that can cause collision in remote maneuvering of autonomous ships can provide a clue to avoid collisions. The concept of estimating the critical latency was established using the turning circle formed by the turning maneuver of the own ship, and critical latency was estimated using the radius of the turning circle with the turning time ratio. The turning circle was observed using the turning trajectory of the give-way vessel measured in the ship maneuvering simulation experiment. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method is capable of identifying both the location and time of the collision due to critical latency. As a result, a clue to avoid possible collision in remote maneuvering caused by critical latency was deduced.

Keywords: critical latency; ship’s collision; turning circle; remote maneuvering; autonomous ship
