Performance Analysis of Constrained Loosely Coupled GPS/INS Integration Solutions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper investigates approaches for loosely coupled GPS/INS integration. Error performance is calculated using a reference trajectory. A performance improvement can be obtained by exploiting additional map information (for example, a road boundary). A constrained solution has been developed and its performance compared with an unconstrained one. The case of GPS outages is also investigated showing how a Kalman filter that operates on the last received GPS position and velocity measurements provides a performance benefit. Results are obtained by means of simulation studies and real data.

Integration of Ppp Gps and Low Cost Imu
GPS and low-cost INS integrated system are expected to become more widespread as a result of the availability of low cost inertial Micro-Electro-Mechanical Sensors (MEMS). Currently most of the integration systems are based on the differential GPS (DGPS) to ensure the navigation performance. However with the requirements of the base station, the system cost and complexity are significantly incr...
متن کاملPerformance Enhancement of GPS/INS Integrated Navigation System Using Wavelet Based De-noising method
Accuracy of inertial navigation system (INS) is limited by inertial sensors imperfections. Before using inertial sensors signals in the data fusion algorithm, noise removal method should be performed, in which, wavelet decomposition method is used. In this method the raw data is decomposed into high and low frequency data sets. In this study, wavelet multi-level resolution analysis (WMRA) techn...
