It is proposed to perform accurate manoeuvring of a submarine in straight horizontal course, with independent control of elevation angle and heave velocity. Independent control is accomplished via a noninteracting control technique using a static state feedback law. The general analytic expression of the feedback controllers satisfying the I/O decoupling requirement is derived. The necessary and sufficient conditions for noninteracting control with simultaneous stability are explicitly determined in terms of the stability derivatives of the submarine.
