Researchers have developed a novel framework for autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) landings on maritime platforms, addressing challenges posed by rough sea states. The system employs two distinct Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) agents: one for active wave compensation of the landing deck using Soft Actor-Critic (SAC), and another for the UAV's final approach. Simulations demonstrated a 100% landing success rate, with the platform maintaining stability within 1 degree of horizontal even in rough conditions. AI
IMPACT Enhances the reliability and safety of autonomous operations in challenging maritime environments.
