A novel H∞ filter called square-root cubature H∞ Kalman filter is proposed for attitude measurement of high-spinning aircraft. In this method, a combined measurement model of three-axis geomagnetic sensor and gyroscope is used, and the Euler angle algorithm model is used to reduce the state dimension and linearize the state equation, which can reduce the amount of calculation. Simultaneously, the method can be applied to the case of measurement noise uncertainty. By continuously modifying the error limiting parameters to update the measurement noise estimation, the filtering accuracy and robustness can be improved. The square-root forms enjoy a consistently improved numerical stability because all the resulting covariance matrices by QR decomposition are guaranteed to stay positive semidefinite. The algorithm is applied to the simulation experiment of attitude measurement with the combination of geomagnetic sensor and gyroscope and compared with the results of Unscented Kalman filter, cubature Kalman filter, square root cubature Kalman filter, and singular value decomposition cubature Kalman filter, which proves the effectiveness and superiority of the algorithm.

A new nonlinear filter method Cubature Kalman Filter (CKF) is improved for passive location with moving angle-measured sensors’ measurements.Firstly,it used Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) algorithm to estimate measurement noise covariance; And then the covariance of the procession noise and measurement noise is brought into the circle; Meanwhile,CKF is improved by the way of square root to keep its stability and positivity,and the results of track by Extend SCKF are compared with the results by Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) in the text;By the tracking results to the velocity of the target, Extend SCKF algorithm can not only track the target with unknown measurement noise but also improve the passive position precision remarkably as the same difficulty as UKF.

The state of charge (SOC) plays an important role in battery management systems (BMS). However, SOC cannot be measured directly and an accurate state estimation is difficult to obtain due to the nonlinear battery characteristics. In this paper, a method of SOC estimation with parameter updating by using the dual square root cubature Kalman filter (DSRCKF) is proposed. The proposed method has been validated experimentally and the results are compared with dual extended Kalman filter (DEKF) and dual square root unscented Kalman filter (DSRUKF) methods. Experimental results have shown that the proposed method has the most balance performance among them in terms of the SOC estimation accuracy, execution time, and convergence rate.

In the process of the attitude measurement for a steering drilling system, the measurement of the attitude parameters may be uncertain and unpredictable due to the influence of server vibration on bits. In order to eliminate the interference caused by vibration on the measurement and quickly obtain the accurate attitude parameters of the steering drilling tool, a new method for multi-sensor dynamic attitude combined measurement is presented. Firstly, by using a triaxial accelerometer and triaxial magnetometer measurement system, the nonlinear model based on the quaternion is established. Then, an improved adaptive fading square root unscented Kalman filter is proposed for eliminating the vibration disturbance signal. In this algorithm, the square root of the state covariance matrix is used to replace the covariance matrix in the classical unscented Kalman filter (UKF) to avoid the filter divergence caused by the negative definite state covariance matrix. The fading factor is introduced into UKF to adjust the filter gain in real-time and improve the adaptive ability of the algorithm to mutation state. Finally, the computational method of the fading factor is optimized to ensure the self-adaptability of the algorithm and reduce the computational complexity. The results of the laboratory test and the field-drilling data show that the proposed method can filter out the interference noise in the attitude measurement sensor effectively, improve the solution accuracy of attitude parameters of drilling tools in the case of abrupt changes in the measuring environment, and thus ensuring the dynamic stability of the well trajectory.

In this paper, firstly, some questionable formulas and conceptual oversights of previous reduced sigma set unscented transformation (UT) methods are revised through theoretical analysis. Then the revised UT methods based Kalman filters are used in a GPS/INS tightly-coupled system. The Kalman filter flows are the kind of square-root, since the square-root unscented Kalman filters (SRUKFs) can guarantee the stability of the system. By using the reduced sigma set SRUKFs (which contain simplex sigma set square-root unscented Kalman filter (S-SRUKF), spherical simplex sigma set square-root unscented Kalman filter (SS-SRUKF) and minimum sigma set square-root unscented Kalman filter (M-SRUKF)), the computation cost is greatly saved compared with the standard SRUKF, while the accuracy of the GPS/INS tightly-coupled system still maintained. The structure of the GPS/INS tightly-coupled system is in the form of error state, and the time updates of the state and the state covariance of SRUKFs are directly estimated without using UT, thus the computational time is also greatly saved. The pseudo-satellite is introduced to aid the system when the observation information is deficient, for example, when the GPS signal is deficient in the maneuver environment. By using the pseudo-satellite, the optimal performance of the system is guaranteed. Experiment of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) showed that the pseudo-satellite aided mechanism worked well.

This paper presents a binocular vision-IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) tightly-coupled structure based on a Minimum sigma set Square-Root Unscented Kalman Filter (M-SRUKF) for real time navigation applications. Though the M-SRUKF has only half the sigma points of the SRUKF, it has the same accuracy as the SRUKF when applied to the binocular vision-IMU tightly-coupled system. As the Kalman filter flow is a kind of square-root system, the stability of the system can be guaranteed. The measurement model and the outlier rejection model of this tightly-coupled system not only utilises the epipolar constraint and the trifocal tensor geometry constraint between the consecutive two image pairs, but also uses the quadrifocal tensor geometry among four views. The structure of the binocular vision-IMU tightly-coupled system is in the form of an error state, and the time updates of the state and the state covariance are directly estimated without using Unscented Transformation (UT). Experiments are carried out based on an outdoor land vehicle open source dataset and an indoor Micro Aerial Vehicle (MAV) open source dataset. Results clearly show the effectiveness of the proposed new mechanisation.
