Abstract
A vessel-azimuth control apparatus is configured in such a way that an azimuth controller generates and outputs an angular velocity command, based on an azimuth command from an azimuth command generator and an actual azimuth, in such a way that an angular velocity controller generates and outputs a steering angle command, based on the angular velocity command, a vessel speed, and an actual angular velocity, and in such a way that a vibration suppression controller outputs a final steering angle command, based on the steering angle command.
