Position and velocity estimation through acceleration measurements

چکیده
This paper proposes a solution to the problem of velocity and position estimation for a class of oscillating systems whose position, velocity and acceleration are zero mean signals. The proposed scheme considers that the dynamic model of the system is unknown and only noisy acceleration measurements are available.

An Ahrs Based on a Kalman Filter for the Integration of Inertial, Magnetometric and Gps Data
The paper describes an Attitude & Heading Reference System able to achieve a high accuracy level by using a Kalman filter, which integrates the measurements coming from low cost inertial sensors, magnetometric sensors and a GPS receiver. The errors correction on attitude and heading angles, calculated through the integration of the gyroscopes measurements, is performed on the basis of their alt...
متن کاملVelocity and acceleration estimation for optical incremental encoders
Optical incremental encoders are extensively used for position measurements in motion systems. The position measurements suffer from quantization errors. Velocity and acceleration estimations obtained by numerical differentiation largely amplify the quantization errors. In this paper, the time stamping concept is used to obtain more accurate position, velocity and acceleration estimations. Time...

Changing the position of the Center of Gravity (CoG) for an aerial vehicle is a challenging part in navigation, and control of such vehicles. In this paper, an all-accelerometers-based inertial measurement unit is presented, with a proposed method for on-line estimation of the position of the CoG. The accelerometers' readings are used to find and correct the vehicle's angular velocity and accel...
