Increasing the energy efficiency of a fishing vessel by estimating the motion parameters of a towed object

The optimal mode of towing fishing gear has a direct impact on the energy efficiency of the fishing vessel. To build the combined traction characteristics of the vessel and trawl systems, data are needed on the nominal moments on the winch and engine drum, as well as the traction force in the warp. Estimation of the movement parameters of the towed object will make it possible to haul warps without overloading the trawl winch and the main engine. The paper proposes a block diagram of the algorithm for estimating the motion parameters of a trawl system. Processing of the current measurements of the warp tension in real time is carried out by digital signal processing methods based on the constructed optimal linear filter, which will be used to obtain the tension on the winch without taking into account the noise that occurs both as a result of the operation of the equipment and under the influence of the random nature of the warp tension process itself. and external hydrometeorological factors. Estimation and prediction of dynamic parameters is necessary for the development of an automated control system for a ship's winch, regardless of its purpose. Therefore, the results presented in this paper can be used in solving problems of automation of lifting equipment operating in non-stationary conditions.
