A fuzzy logic controller for controlling towed objects includes comprises a winch controller to control extension or retraction of a tow cable based on a control signal. A fuzzy logic controller controls a speed at which the tow cable is extended or retracted. The fuzzy logic controller includes an altitude controller storing a membership function defining ranges for a delta altitude variable and determines an altitude control signal based on the range for the measured delta altitude variable. A gain controller stores respective membership functions defining ranges for speed, heading rate, and cable length variables and determines a gain control signal based on the ranges for the determined speed, heading rate, and cable length variables. A command controller determines the control signal based on the gain control signal and the altitude control signal. |
