This paper investigates the model-free trajectory tracking control problem for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) subject to the ocean currents, external disturbances, measurement noise, model parameter uncertainty, initial tracking errors, and thruster malfunction. A novel control architecture based on model-free control principles is presented to guarantee stable and precise trajectory tracking performance in the complex underwater environment for AUVs. In the proposed hybrid controller, intelligent-PID (i-PID) and PD feedforward controllers are combined to achieve better disturbance rejections and initial tracking error compensations while keeping the trajectory tracking precision. A mathematical model of an AUV is derived, and ocean current dynamics are included to obtain better fidelity when examining ocean current effects. In order to evaluate the trajectory tracking control performance of the proposed controller, computer simulations are conducted on the LIVA AUV with a compelling trajectory under various disturbances. The results are compared with the two degrees-of-freedom (DOF) i-PID, i-PID, and PID controllers to examine control performance improvements with the guaranteed trajectory tracking stability. The comparative results revealed that the i-PID with PD feedforward controller provides an effective trajectory tracking control performance and excellent disturbance rejections for the entire trajectory of the AUV.

In the last decades, model-free control (MFC) has become an alternative for complex processes whose models are not available or are difficult to obtain. Among the model-free control techniques, intelligent PID (iPID) algorithms, which are based on the ultralocal model parameterized with the constant α and including a classical PID, are used in many applications. This paper presents a new method for tuning iPID controllers based on the iterative feedback tuning (IFT) technique. This model-free tuning technique iteratively optimizes the parameters of a fixed structure controller using data coming from the closed-loop system operation. First, the discrete transfer functions of the iPID are deduced, considering the first and second order derivatives of the output variable from the ultralocal model. Using the discrete transfer functions, the iPID controllers become the fixed structure type, and the IFT parameter tuning method can be applied. Thus, in addition to the classical gains of the PID algorithm, the value of the parameter α is also obtained, which is usually determined by trial-and-error. The performances of the IFT-tuned iPID controllers were experimentally tested and validated in real-time using Quanser AERO 2 laboratory equipment with a one degree of freedom (1-DOF) configuration.
