Kalman filtered GPS accelerometer- based accident detection and location system: a low-cost approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
A low-cost accident detection system utilizing cheap ADXL345 accelerometers and GPS receiver is proposed in this communication. The accident detection algorithm was developed based on sudden deceleration. The double integration of the acceleration and heading from the tilt angles of accelerometers were used to determine the location. Kalman filter was utilized to correct the accumulated double integration errors with the trusted GPS data. The field tests demonstrated the correct functioning of the accident detection algorithm and location. The proposed lowcost system can save many lives by the automated accident detection and accurate location even during GPS outage.

متن کاملImprovement in Differential GPS Accuracy using Kalman Filter
Global Positioning System (GPS) is proven to be an accurate positioning sensor. However, there are several sources of errors such as ionosphere and troposphere effects, satellite time errors, errors of orbit data, receivers errors, and errors resulting from multi-path effect which reduce the accuracy of low-cost GPS receivers. These sources of errors also limit the use of single-frequency GPS r...
