  • In this paper, an INS compensation algorithm for auto sailing system is proposed, where low cost IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) is used for measuring the accelerometer data. First, we denote the basic INS algorithm with IMU and show that how to compensate the error of position by using low cost IMU. Second, in considering the ship's characteristic and ocean environments, we consider with a factor as a periodic external disturbance which effects to the exact position. To develop the compensation algorithm, we use a repetitive method to reduce the external environment changes. Lastly, we verify the proposed algorithm by using experiments results.

  • In this paper, a simple version of the hybrid navigation system using Kalman filter is proposed. The implemented hybrid navigation system is composed of a GPS to measure the position and the velocity, and a IMU(inertial measurement unit) to measure the acceleration and the posture of a mobile robot. A discrete Kalman filter is applied to provide the position of the robot by fusing both of the sensor data. When GPS signal is available, the navigation system estimates the position of the robot from the Kalman filter using position and velocity from GPS, and acceleration from IMU. During the interval until next GPS signal arrives, the system calculates the position of the robot using acceleration from IMU and velocity obtained at the previous step. Performance of the navigation system is verified by comparing the real path and the estimated path of the mobile robot. From experiments, we conclude that the navigation system is acceptable for the mobile robot.

  • This paper describes how a relatively compensate the error of position by using low cost Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) has been evaluated and compared with the well established method based on a Kalman Filter(KF). The compensation algorithm by using IMU have been applied to the problem of integrating information from an Inertial Navigation System (INS). The KF is to estimate and compensate the errors of an INS by using the integrated INS velocity and position. We verify the proposed algorithm by simulation results.

  • A calibration technique for a redundant IMU with low-grade inertial sensors is proposed. In order to calibrate the redundant IMU that can detect and isolate a faulty sensor, the fundamental coordinate frames in the IMU are defined and the IMU error is modeled based on the frames. Equations to estimate the error coefficients of the redundant IMU are formulated, and a test sequence using the 2-axis rate table is also presented. Finally, a redundant IMU with cone configuration is implemented using the low-grade inertial sensors and the performance of the proposed technique is verified by some experiments.

  • GPS cannot determine random errors such as multipath and signal cutoff caused by surrounding environment that determines the visibility of satellites and the speed of data creation and transmission is lower than the speed of vehicles, it is difficult to determine accurate dynamic positions. Thus this study purposed to implement a method of deciding the accurate dynamic position of vehicles by combining AHRS (Attitude Heading Reference System) IMU (Initial Measurement Unit) based on low-priced MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) in order to provide the information of attitude, position and speed at a high transmission rate without external help. This study conducted an initialization test to decide dynamic position using AHRS IMU sensor, and derived attitude correction angles of vehicles against time through regression analysis. The roll angle was $y=(A{\times}10^{-6})x^2 -(B{\times}10^{-5})x+Cr{\times}10^{-2}$ and the pitch angle was $y=(A{\times}10^{-6})x^2-(B{\times}10^{-7})x+C{\times}10^{-2}$, each of which was derived from second-degree polynomial regression analysis. It was also found that the heading angle was stabilized with variation less than $1^{\circ}$ after 60 seconds.

  • This paper is about a complex sensor system of an automatic guided vehicle(AGV) for loading and unloading payloads. For the AGV to approach to the target rack for loading and unloading the payload, a way to identify the position and orientation was studied. To identify the position and orientation of the AGV accurately, a complex sensor system composed of RFID, IMU, and limit sensors was developed, and the performance of each sensor was undertaken. A model AGV was constructed, and the good performance of the developed complex sensor system was verified through performance experiments.

  • The precision of sensors' position is particularly important in the application of road extraction or digital map generation. In general, the various ranging solution systems such as GPS, Total Station, and Laser Ranger have been employed for the position of the sensor. Basically, the ranging solution system has problems that the signal may be blocked or degraded by various environmental circumstances and has low temporal resolution. To overcome those limitations a IMU/range integrated system could be introduced. In this paper, after pointing out the limitation of extended Kalman filter which has been used for workhorse in navigation and geodetic community, the two sampling based nonlinear filters which are sigma point Kalman filter using nonlinear transformation and carefully chosen sigma points and particle filter using the non-gaussian assumption are implemented and compared with extended Kalman filter in a simulation test. For the ranging solution system, the GPS and Total station was selected and the three levels of IMUs(IMU400C, HG1700, LN100) are chosen for the simulation. For all ranging solution system and IMUs the sampling based nonlinear filter yield improved position result and it is more noticeable that the superiority of nonlinear filter in low temporal resolution such as 5 sec. Therefore, it is recommended to apply non-linear filter to determine the sensor's position with low degree position sensors.

  • This paper presents a novel Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network architecture for the integration of an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). The proposed algorithm consists of two independent LSTM networks and the LSTM networks are trained to predict attitudes and velocities from the sequence of IMU measurements and mechanization solutions. In this paper, three GNSS receivers are used to provide Real Time Kinematic (RTK) GNSS attitude and position information of a vehicle, and the information is used as a target output while training the network. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated with both experimental and simulation data using a lowcost IMU and three RTK-GNSS receivers. The test results showed that the proposed LSTM network could improve positioning accuracy by more than 90% compared to the position solutions obtained using a conventional Kalman filter based IMU/GNSS integration for more than 30 seconds of GNSS outages.

  • In this paper, the symmetric position drift of the integration approach in pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) system with dual foot-mounted IMU is analyzed. The PDR system that uses the inertial sensor attached to the shoe is called the IA-based PDR system. Since this system is designed based on the inertial navigation system (INS), it has the same characteristics as the error of the INS, then zero-velocity update (ZUPT) is used to correct this error. However, an error that cannot be compensated perfectly by ZUPT exists, and the trend of the position error is the symmetric direction along the side of the shoe(left, right foot) with the IMU attached. The symmetric position error along the side of the shoe gradually increases with walking. In this paper, we analyze the causes of symmetric position drift and show the results. It suggests the possibility of factors other than the error factors that are generally considered in the PDR system based on the integration approach.
