An efficient model predictive control design for ship autopilot, which is a representative marine application, is proposed based on projection neural network in this article. Ship motion control at sea exhibits the characteristics of large inertia, strong nonlinearity, and large delay; furthermore, it is frequently influenced by the external disturbances, leading to a complex uncertain problem. In addition, the amplitude of control input—the rudder is constrained. Given the mechanism of on-line computing and the advantages of handling constraints, the model predictive control is one of the most favorable solutions for this problem. Nevertheless, the major challenge of the implementation of traditional model predictive control in application is the computation intensity. In this article, the capability of parallel computation of projection neural network is employed to optimize the objective function formulated by traditional model predictive control method, aiming to improve the computational efficiency. The overall information of ship motion is normally difficult to be obtained; therefore, a state observer should be also included. Extensive studies are conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control design.
