6DoF SLAM aided GNSS/INS Navigation in GNSS Denied and Unknown Environments

چکیده
This paper presents the results of augmenting 6DoF Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) with GNSS/INS navigation system. SLAM algorithm is a feature based terrain aided navigation system that has the capability for online map building, and simultaneously utilising the generated map to constrain the errors in the on-board Inertial Navigation System (INS). In this paper, indirect SLAM is developed based on error analysis and then is integrated to GNSS/INS fusion filter. If GNSS information is available, the system performs featurebased mapping using the GNSS/INS solution. If GNSS is not available, the previously and/or newly generated map is now used to estimate the INS errors. Simulation results will be presented which shows that the system can provide reliable and accurate navigation solutions in GNSS denied environments for an extended period of time.

An Integrated GNSS/INS/LiDAR-SLAM Positioning Method for Highly Accurate Forest Stem Mapping
Forest mapping, one of the main components of performing a forest inventory, is an important driving force in the development of laser scanning. Mobile laser scanning (MLS), in which laser scanners are installed on moving platforms, has been studied as a convenient measurement method for forest mapping in the past several years. Positioning and attitude accuracies are important for forest mappi...
متن کاملLiDAR Scan Matching Aided Inertial Navigation System in GNSS-Denied Environments
A new scan that matches an aided Inertial Navigation System (INS) with a low-cost LiDAR is proposed as an alternative to GNSS-based navigation systems in GNSS-degraded or -denied environments such as indoor areas, dense forests, or urban canyons. In these areas, INS-based Dead Reckoning (DR) and Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) technologies are normally used to estimate positions as...

A signal of opportunity (SOP)-aided inertial navigation system (INS) framework is presented and studied. The following problem is studied. A mobile receiver with access to global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals is aiding its onboard INS with GNSS pseudoranges. While navigating, the receiver draws pseudorange observations on ambient unknown terrestrial SOPs and estimates the SOPs’ sta...
متن کاملPerformance Improvement of Receivers Based on Ultra-Tight Integration in GNSS-Challenged Environments
Ultra-tight integration was first proposed by Abbott in 2003 with the purpose of integrating a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) and an inertial navigation system (INS). This technology can improve the tracking performances of a receiver by reconfiguring the tracking loops in GNSS-challenged environments. In this paper, the models of all error sources known to date in the phase lock loo...
متن کاملA Hierarchical SLAM/GPS/INS Sensor Fusion with WLFP for Flying Robo-SAR's Navigation
In this paper, we present the results of a hierarchical SLAM/GPS/INS/WLFP sensor fusion to be used in navigation system devices. Due to low quality of the inertial sensors, even a short-term GPS failure can lower the integrated navigation performance significantly. In addition, in GPS denied environments, most navigation systems need a separate assisting resource, in order to increase the avail...
