Uncertainty of Nist Airspeed Calibrations
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) provides calibration services for airspeed instruments. Here, we describe NIST’s recently upgraded airspeed calibration system and its uncertainty. At NIST, airspeed calibrations are performed over the range 0.15 m/s to 40 m/s in the wind tunnel that has a test cross section of 1.5 m by 2.1 m. The standard for airspeed measurement is a f...
متن کاملFully automatic taxiing, takeoff and landing of a UAV based on a single-antenna GNSS receiver
This paper presents fully automatic control of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from taxiing and takeoff to landing based on a single-antenna GPS receiver. In this paper, inertial sensors such as gyros and accelerometers are not used at all to show the full potential of a single-antenna GPS receiver based attitude determination system. DGPS is implemented to give high accuracy position informat...
متن کاملCalibrating airborne measurements of airspeed, pressure and temperature using a Doppler laser air-motion sensor
A new laser air-motion sensor measures the true airspeed with a standard uncertainty of less than 0.1 m s−1 and so reduces uncertainty in the measured component of the relative wind along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft to about the same level. The calculated pressure expected from that airspeed at the inlet of a pitot tube then provides a basis for calibrating the measurements of dynamic...
متن کاملFlight speed and performance of the wandering albatross with respect to wind
Background Albatrosses and other large seabirds use dynamic soaring to gain sufficient energy from the wind to travel large distances rapidly and with little apparent effort. The recent development of miniature bird-borne tracking devices now makes it possible to explore the physical and biological implications of this means of locomotion in detail. Here we use GPS tracking and concurrent reana...
متن کاملOptimization of Inertial Localization by Differential Evolution Algorithm
This paper solves a replacement of inertial sensor mechanical calibration by calculation of the calibration constants using differential evolution algorithm. In the first section a simplified mathematicphysical model of inertial navigation is described. Then we describe the inertial sensor errors and its calibration. Main part of the paper deals with determination of accelerometers and gyroscop...
