본 논문에서는 센서 결합을 이용하여 강체 자세 추정을 정확히 할 수 있는 선택적 확장 칼만 필터 방법을 제안한다. 강체의 자세는 Gauss-Newton방법을 적용하여 가속도 데이터와 지자기 데이터로 부터 쿼터니언 상태 변수를 개략 추정하고 비전 정보와 자이로 센서 정보를 이용하여 정밀 추정을 하는데 외부 간섭 잡음이 강 할 경우 이 방식을 이용한 개략 추정이 어려워진다. 본 논문은 외부 간섭 잡음의 정도를 측정하고 잡음이 강할 때 비전 정보와 자이로 센서정보를 주로 이용하는 선택적 확장 칼만 필터 방법을 이용하여 추정 값에 대한 신뢰도를 높인다.

An estimator for a discrete nonlinear system is derived in the sense of minimum mean square error. An optimal estimator for nonlinear system is very difficult to find and it will be infinite dimensional even if it is found. It has been known that the statistical linearization technique makes it possible to obtain a finite dimensional estimator. In this paper, the procedure of its derivation using the statistical linearization technique that gives an exact mean and variance information is introduced in the sense of minimum mean square error. The derived estimator cannot be clainmed to be globally optimal estimator because it uses the Gaussian assumption to the non-Gaussian distributed nonlinear output. However, the proposed filter exhibits a better performance compared to extended Kalman filter. Simulation results of a simple example present the improvement of the proposed filter in convergent property over the extended Kalman filter.

항공기의 착륙을 추적하기 위해 많이 사용되는 수동 센서인 레이저 거리 측정기(LRF)와 전방관측 적외선 카메라(FLIR)는 배기가스교란(Exhaust Plume Disturbance)으로 인한 고도각 측정 시에 오차를 발생시킨다. 이 경우에 확장형 칼만필터(EKF)를 사용하여 거리 및 고도를 측정하면 배기가스(plume)와 같은 비-가우시안 잡음 때문에 추적 성능이 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 배기가스의 발생 타이밍을 검출기(PD)를 사용하여 확인한 후에 배기가스가 발생하면 적응형 추산법을 사용하고 배기가스의 영향이 없을 때에는 기존의 확장형 칼만필터를 사용하는 복합 방식을 제안하고 이를 위한 적응형 필터를 설계한다. 이 혼합형 필터는 배기가스와 같은 미지의 바이어스를 제거하는데 매우 효과적인 방법이며 시뮬레이션을 통하여 이러한 성능을 예증한다.

This paper proposes a robust method for mapping of a caterpillar-type mobile robot which inherently has uncertainty in its modeling by compensating for the estimated pose error of the robot. In general, a caterpillar type robot is difficult to model, which results in inaccuracy in Simultaneous Localization And Mapping(SLAM). To enhance the robustness of the SLAM for a caterpillar-type mobile robot, we factorize the SLAM posterior, where we used particle filter to estimate the position of the robot and Extended Kalman Filter(EKF) to map the environment. The simulation results show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method for mapping.

In recent years, visual-inertial odometry(VIO) algorithms have been extensively studied for the indoor/urban environments because it is more robust to dynamic scenes and environment changes. In this paper, we propose loosely coupled(LC) VIO algorithm that utilizes the velocity vectors from both visual odometry(VO) and inertial measurement unit(IMU) as a filter measurement of Extended Kalman filter. Our approach improves the estimation performance of a filter without adding extra sensors while maintaining simple integration framework, which treats VO as a black box. For the VO algorithm, we employed a fundamental part of the ORB-SLAM, which uses ORB features. We performed an outdoor experiment using an RGB-D camera to evaluate the accuracy of the presented algorithm. Also, we evaluated our algorithm with the public dataset to compare with other visual navigation systems.

본 논문은 차분형 천수방정식을 확장 칼만 필터로 변환하여 조석 예측을 시도하였다. 필터는 바닥마찰과 바람응력, 매개변수를 무작위 변수로 하는 추계학적 모형으로 구성되었으며 조위 및 유속과 함께 추정되도록 하였다. 물리적인 상황의 변화에 적응하도록 각 추정치들은 전파되고, 갱신된다. 본 모형에 서해안의 실측자료를 적용하여 조위의 예측을 실시한 결과, 이상 고조 기간동안에도 만족한 성과를 거두었다.

Unknown parameters can be determined by system identification techniques. Extended Kalman filter method was introduced as a real time estimator of hydrodynamic derivatives but it has the problem named the coefficient drift. In this study, 2nd order filter estimates hydrodynamic derivatives in Abkowitz model In order to reduce the coefficient drift, parallel processing is used. The measured state and ship trajectory are compared with the estimated values. Parallel processing of 2nd order filter gives very similar results to parallel processing of extended Kalman filter. Parallel processing cannot not remove the coefficient drift perfectly, but it reduces the estimation error.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of inertial navigation system (INS) / global positioning system (GPS) sensor fusion for agricultural vehicle navigation. An extended Kalman filter algorithm was adopted for INS/GPS sensor fusion in an integrated mode, and the vehicle dynamic model was used instead of the navigation state error model. The INS/GPS system was consisted of a low-cost gyroscope, an odometer and a GPS receiver, and its performance was tested through computer simulations. When measurement noises of GPS receiver were 10, 1.0, 0.5, and 0.2 m ($1{\sigma}$), RMS position and heading errors of INS/GPS system at 5 m/s straight path were remarkably reduced with 10%, 35%, 40%, and 60% of those obtained from the GPS receiver, respectively. The decrease of position and heading errors by using INS/GPS rather than stand-alone GPS can provide more stable steering of agricultural equipments. Therefore, the low-cost INS/GPS system using the extended Kalman filter algorithm may enable the self-autonomous navigation to meet required performance like stable steering or more less position errors even in slow-speed operation.

Nonlinear state estimation is a desirable and required technique for many situations in engineering (e.g., aircraft/spacecraft tracking, space situational awareness, collision warning, radar tracking, etc.). Due to high standards on performance in these applications, in the last few decades, there was an increasing demand for methods that are able to provide more accurate results. However, because of the mathematical complexity introduced by the nonlinearities of the models, the nonlinear state estimation uses techniques that, in practice, are not so well-established which, leads to sub-optimal results. It is important to take into account that each method will have advantages and limitations when facing specific environments. The main objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview and interpretation of the most well-known methods for nonlinear state estimation with Gaussian priors. In particular, the Kalman filtering methods: EKF (Extended Kalman Filter), UKF (Unscented Kalman Filter), CKF (Cubature Kalman Filter) and EnKF (Ensemble Kalman Filter) with an aerospace perspective.

An estimation technique called the Extended Kalman filter is used to estimate viscous friction, spring initial contraction, and the spring constant on the swash plate of a variable displacement pump. The feasibility of the approach was established using a simulation study. It showed that these parameters could be estimated very accurately in a reliable and independent fashion. A special experimental system was set up to facilitate the measurement of certain states to enhance the Kalman Filtering approach. The aforementioned parameters were estimated and found to be reasonably repeatable for a common operating point. It was very evident that as the operating conditions changed (i.e. temperature) so did the estimated values of certain parameters such as viscous friction. This was believed to be a good verification test for the approach.
