An Invariant Observer for Earth-Velocity-Aided Attitude Heading Reference Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose an invariant nonlinear observer (i.e. a “filter”) for estimating the velocity vector and orientation of a flying rigid body, using measurements from low-cost Earth-fixed velocity, inertial and magnetic sensors. It has a nice geometric structure which respects meaningful physical symmetries of the system. It can be seen as an easier-to-tune and computationally much simpler alternative to an Extended Kalman Filter.

Magnetic Calibration of Three-Axis Strapdown Magnetometers for Applications in Mems Attitude-Heading Reference Systems
In a strapdown magnetic compass, heading angle is estimated using the Earth's magnetic field measured by Three-Axis Magnetometers (TAM). However, due to several inevitable errors in the magnetic system, such as sensitivity errors, non-orthogonal and misalignment errors, hard iron and soft iron errors, measurement noises and local magnetic fields, there are large error between the magnetometers'...
متن کاملA Robust Nonlinear Observer for Real-Time Attitude Estimation Using Low-Cost MEMS Inertial Sensors
This paper deals with the attitude estimation of a rigid body equipped with angular velocity sensors and reference vector sensors. A quaternion-based nonlinear observer is proposed in order to fuse all information sources and to obtain an accurate estimation of the attitude. It is shown that the observer error dynamics can be separated into two passive subsystems connected in "feedback". Then, ...
متن کاملEstimation and Non Linear Observer of the Attitude of a Robot via Quaternion
Generally, the attitude estimation and the measurement of the angular velocity are a requirement for the attitude control. As a result, the computational cost and the complexity of the control loop are relatively high. In the present paper, a technique for attitude stabilization is proposed; the technique proposed is designed with attitude estimation based in data fusion of an Attitude and Head...

This paper presents an algorithm for velocity-aided attitude estimation for helicopter aircraft using a microelectromechanical system inertial-measurement unit. In general, high- performance gyroscopes are used for estimating the attitude of a helicopter, but this type of sensor is very expensive. When designing a cost-effective attitude system, attitude can be estimated by fusing a low cost ac...
