The creation of mine-fighting unmanned surface vessels is an important step in the development of an automated mine clearance system for inland waters of Ukraine. The process of designing such vessels is proposed based on the application of a systems approach, which includes the analysis of requirements, the development of technical solutions and the integration of the latest technologies to ensure maximum efficiency and safety of the processes of using a mine-fighting unmanned surface vessel.
Formation of the substantive part of the tasks of creating a mine-fighting unmanned surface vessel as a methodological basis for the process of its design for an automated mine clearance system for inland waters of Ukraine.
The methodology of analysis of scientific and technical literature and the principle of a systems approach are used. The object of the study is the process of designing an unmanned surface vessel for an automated mine clearance system for inland waters. The subject of the study is the formation of the substantive part of the tasks of creating a mine-fighting unmanned surface vessel and a set of tasks of its automation as a methodological basis for the process of designing a vessel.
From the standpoint of the system approach, the main tasks of automating a mine-clearing unmanned vessel have been formulated, which include the task of synthesizing perfect systems for automatic control of the spatial movement of the vessel and its payload, the task of creating highly efficient on-board energy sources of the vessel, the task of equipping the vessel with highly efficient equipment for searching for and neutralizing sea mines, and the task of developing automatic control systems for such equipment. Based on the principles of the system approach and the general principles of organizing the functioning of the automated mine clearance system of the inland waters of Ukraine, four main stages of designing a mine-clearing unmanned vessel as a component of the automated mine clearance system of the state have been proposed - analysis of requirements and planning of the vessel project, technical design, prototyping and testing, integration of the vessel into the general automated mine clearance system of the state's territorial waters. The substantive part of the task of creating a perfect system for automatic control of the spatial movement of a mine-clearing unmanned vessel has been formulated. A set of technical requirements for the automatic control system of the vessel is proposed, which includes requirements for resistance to external disturbances, maneuverability and accuracy of the vessel's positioning.
The main tasks of automation of a mine-clearing unmanned vessel and a set of requirements for the automatic control system of a mine-clearing unmanned vessel form the methodological basis for the process of its synthesis as a component of the automated mine clearance system of inland waters of Ukraine.
The main tasks of automation of a mine-clearing unmanned vessel can serve as the basis for planning the work of a design organization that designs such vessels. The set of requirements for the automatic control system of a mine-clearing unmanned vessel forms the organizational basis of design work on the development of an automatic control system for a mine-clearing unmanned vessel.
