In order to predict the maneuverability of high-speed USV and improve its control performance,it is of great significance to accurately establish the maneuvering response model for USVs. Aiming at the problem that the model parameter solving in traditional model experiment is complex,an AFSA-based parameter identification method for the control response model of high-speed USVs is proposed. The control response model is discretized by difference,and then transformed into the corresponding identification model. Then based on AFSA,the state vector is optimized and solved,and the parameters of the USV response model are identified. The simulation results show that the identification model based on AFSA has good generalization ability,and this identification method is effective,which can better control and predict the maneuvering motion of high-speed USVs.
