A new adaptive filter is proposed for an aided strapdown inertial navigation system(SDINS). The proposed filter can be used to effectively estimate the time-varying variance of the measurement noise. Then, the in-flight alignment for the radar aided SDINS is designed using the additive quatermion error model. Simulation results show that the proposed adaptive filter effectively improves the performance of the radar aided SDINS.

In this paper, the uniform observability and the error characteristics for stationary SDINS error are analyzed. The use of the Lyapunov transformation is proposed for transforming te conventional SDINS error model and the sufficient conditions for the uniform observability of SDINS error model are analytically derived. A complete characterization for the SDINS error characteristics during two position alignment is presented which allows us to predict the performance of two position alignment in SDINS.

This paper presents WMR modelling and path tracking algorithm using Inertial Navigation System. The error models of gyroscope and accelerometers in INS are derived by Gauss-Newton method which is nonlinear regression model. Then, to test availability of error model, we pursue the fitness diagnosis about probability characteristic for real data and estimated data. Performance of inertial sensor with error model and Kalman filter is pursued by comparing with one without them. The computer simulation shows that position error remarkably decrease when error compensation is applied.

In this paper, we formulate the extended Kalman filter for calibration of gimballed inertial navigation system (GINS) at a pure navigation mode with 1500 ft/sec initial velocity and compare its performance to the linear Kalman filter's by using Monte-Carlo analysis method. It has been shown that estimation performance of the extended Kalman filter is better than that of the linear Kalman filter.

Recently, multi-sensor integration techniques have been actively studied to obtain reliable and accurate navigation solution in GPS (Global Positioning System)-denied harsh environments such as urban canyons, tunnels, and underground roads. In this paper, we propose a low-cost ultrasonic-speedometer utilizing the characteristics of the ultrasonic propagation. An efficient integrated INS (inertial navigation system)/ultrasonic-speedometer navigation system is also proposed to improve the accuracy of positioning in GPS-denied environments. To evaluate the proposed system, car experiments with field-collected measurements were performed. By the experiment results, it was confirmed that the proposed INS/ultrasonic-speedometer system bounds the positioning error growth effectively even though GPS signal is blocked more than 10 seconds and a low-cost MEMS IMU (micro electro mechanical systems inertial measurement unit) is utilized.

The redundant sensor configuration problem of inertial navigation system(INS) is considered and analyzed the navigation and fault detection performance according to various sensor configurations. We considered various kinds of redundant sensor configurations for symmetric, cone, and orthogonal configurations and compare the navigation and fault detection performance for the configurations. We show that the navigation and fault detection performance is not affected by the coordinate change for a fixed configuration.

This paper introduces an altitude determination algorithm using GPS/INS/Baroaltimeter and evaluates the algorithm by real field tests. The test results show that the proposed method can determine the altitude of an aircraft continuously and sensitively. Therefore, it is appropriate to be used as an altimeter for a flight control system, especially for the automatic take-off and landing. In addition, it is shown that the second and the third baro-inertial vertical channel damping methods are essentially complementary filters while the proposed scheme improves these complementary filters.

An artificial vision aided NDGPS/INS system has been developed and tested in the dynamic environment of ground and flight vehicles to evaluate the overall system performance. The results show the significant advantages in position accuracy and situation awareness. Accuracy meets the CAT-I precision approach and landing using NDGPS/INS integration. Also we confirm the proposed system is effective enough to improve flight safety by using artificial vision. The system design, software algorithm, and flight test results are presented in details.

In GPS/INS/barometer navigation system for UAV, two procedures were proposed in order to set three reference parameters for the pressure altitude of QNH or QFE settings, using the navigation data from on-board system alone. These procedures yield required the reference parameters through mathematical process with the altitude and the atmosphere properties measured for a short duration of flight, of which a special pattern is requested according to the selected procedure. Dependency only upon the on-board navigation data can eliminate a requirement for the atmospheric measurement system in the ground support system and can expand a flight boundary to a remote area where the ground support is not available. Especially the procedure with the regression method uses altitude and pressure but temperature to produce the three reference parameters. No need of temperature measurement for the pressure altitude system can simplify the on-board air data system.

The GPS/INS integrated navigation system, which is one of the electronic equipments mounted on military aircraft store, can not directly receive GPS signals by the aircraft wing before the drop, so GPS navigation data is received from the aircraft and used for filter integration, afterwards, the integrated navigation is performed using the GPS information directly received through the antenna. In this case, it is possible to operate the mount in old aircraft without any modification of the aircraft when GPS data is transmitted using wireless. However, the delay occurs while the aircraft navigation data is transmitted to the integrated navigation filter of the aircraft store via wireless, which affects the time synchronization of the GPS measurement and the INS information, affecting the integrated navigation performance. In this paper, an algorithm to analyze and compensate the effect of generation and transmission delay that can occur when implementing GPS/INS integrated navigation system of aircraft store that receives GPS data via wireless.
