Olivo-Cerebellar Controller

Abstract

It is the general purpose and primary object of the present invention to provide control laws for the synchronization and phase angle control of multiple inferior olives (IO) used in a maneuvering controller or control system of an underwater vehicle. In order to attain the objects described, the present invention provides closed-loop control of multiple inferior olives (IOs) for maneuvering a Biorobotic Autonomous Undersea Vehicle (BAUV). A model is described where variables are associated with sub-threshold oscillations and low threshold spiking. Higher threshold spiking is also described.
