Integrated Navigation System

An inertial navigation system (INS) aided with an aircraft dynamic model (ADM) is developed as a novel airborne integrated navigation system, coping with the absence of a global navigation satellite system. To overcome the shortcomings of the conventional linear integration of INS/ADM based on an extended Kalman filter, a nonlinear integration method is proposed. Fast-update ADM makes it possible to utilize a direct filtering method, which employs nonlinear INS mechanics as system equations and a nonlinear ADM as observation equations, substituting the indirect filtering based on linear error equations. The strong nonlinearity generally calls for an unscented Kalman filter to accomplish the fusion process. Dealing with the model uncertainty, the inaccurate statistical characteristics of the noise and the potential nonpositive definiteness of the covariance matrix, an improved square-root unscented H∞ filter (ISRUHF) is derived in the paper, in which the robust factor [Formula: see text] is further expanded into a diagonal matrix [Formula: see text], to improve the accuracy and robustness of the integrated navigation system. Corresponding simulations as well as real flight tests based on a small-scale fixed-wing aircraft are operated and ISRUHF shows superiority compared with the commonly used fusion algorithm.

The detection of track geometry parameters is essential for the safety of high-speed railway operation. To improve the accuracy and efficiency of the state detector of track geometry parameters, in this study we propose an inertial GNSS odometer integrated navigation system based on the federated Kalman, and a corresponding inertial track measurement system was also developed. This paper systematically introduces the construction process for the Kalman filter and data smoothing algorithm based on forward filtering and reverse smoothing. The engineering results show that the measurement accuracy of the track geometry parameters was better than 0.2 mm, and the detection speed was about 3 km/h. Thus, compared with the traditional Kalman filter method, the proposed design improved the measurement accuracy and met the requirements for the detection of geometric parameters of high-speed railway tracks.

Navigation Information

The schemes of navigation systems correction are considered. The operation mode of the aircraft during navigation is analyzed. An adaptive modification of the linear Kalman filter is used to correct the navigation information. An algorithm for predicting a correction signal based on a neural network in the event of a loss of a SNS correction signal is formed. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the algorithm.

Abstract The paper presents methods of on-line and off-line estimation of UAV position on the basis of measurements from its integrated navigation system. The navigation system installed on board UAV contains an INS and a GNSS receiver. The UAV position, as well as its velocity and orientation are estimated with the use of smoothing algorithms. For off-line estimation, a fixed-interval smoothing algorithm has been applied. On-line estimation has been accomplished with the use of a fixed-lag smoothing algorithm. The paper includes chosen results of simulations demonstrating improvements of accuracy of UAV position estimation with the use of smoothing algorithms in comparison with the use of a Kalman filter.

Short Period

The Kalman filter (KF), which recursively generates a relatively optimal estimate of underlying system state based upon a series of observed measurements, has been widely used in integrated navigation system. Due to its dependence on the accuracy of system model and reliability of observation data, the precision of KF will degrade or even diverge, when using inaccurate model or trustless data set. In this paper, a fault-tolerant adaptive Kalman filter (FTAKF) algorithm for the integrated navigation system composed of a strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS), a Doppler velocity log (DVL), and a magnetic compass (MCP) is proposed. The evolutionary artificial neural networks (EANN) are used in self-learning and training of the intelligent data fusion algorithm. The proposed algorithm can significantly outperform the traditional KF in providing estimation continuously with higher accuracy and smoothing the KF outputs when observation data are inaccurate or unavailable for a short period. The experiments of the prototype verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Filtering Approach

In underwater navigation, the conventional Error State Kalman Filter (ESKF) is used for combining navigation data where due to first order linearization of the nonlinear equations of the dynamics and measurements, considerable error is induced in estimated error state and covariance matrices. This paper presents an underwater integrated inertial navigation system using the unscented filter as an improved nonlinear version of the Kalman filter family. The designed system consists of a strap-down inertial navigation system accompanying Doppler velocity log and depth meter. In the proposed approach, to use the nonlinear capabilities of the unscented filtering approach the integrated navigation system is implemented in a direct approach where the nonlinear total state dynamic and and measurement models are utilised without any linearization. To our knowledge, no results have been reported in the literature on the experimental evaluation of the unscented-based integrated navigation system for underwater vehicles. The performance of the designed system is studied using real measurements. The results of the lake test show that the proposed system estimates the vehicle's position more accurately compared with the conventional ESKF structure.
