This paper describes the evaluation and selection of MEMS(Micro-Elect Mechanical System) based inertial sensor to fit to implement the Inertial Measurement Unit(IMU) for a small-sized vessel at sea. At first, the error model and the noise model of the inertial sensors are defined with Euler's equations and then, the inertial sensor evaluation is carried out with Allan Variance techniques and Monte Carlo simulation. As evaluation results for the five sensors, ADIS16405, SAR10Z, SAR100Grade100, LIS344ALH and ADXL103, the combination of gyroscope and accelerometer of ADIS16405 is shown minimum error having around 160 m/s standard deviation of velocity error and around 35 km standard deviation of position error after 600 seconds. Thus, we select the ADIS16405 inertial sensor as a MEMS-based inertial sensor to implement IMU and, the error reducing method is also considered with the search for reference papers.

This study investigates the use of movable calibration target for gyroscopic and accelerometer bias compensation of inertial measurement units for firing lane alignment. Calibration source is detected with the help of vision sensor and its information in fused with other sensors on launcher for error correction. An algorithm is proposed and tested in simulation. It has been shown that it is possible to compensate sensor biases in firing launcher in few seconds by accurately estimating the location of calibration target in inertial frame of reference.

원격 조정식 비익체(이하 RPV : Remoteloted Vehicle)의 안정성을 향상시키고 조정을 간략화하기 위하여 사용되고있는 관성센서에 관해서 알아본다. 관성센서의 기본 원리는 뉴톤의 운동 제3 법칙인 관성의 법칙이고, 특징은 외부 측정기준을 필요로 하지 않은 점에 있으므로, 관성센서를 탐재한 RPV는 공중에서 운동 상태를 외부의 정보 없이 검토할 수 있다. 실제적으로 기계용으로 실용화되고 있는 센서는 관성항법장치(INS:Inertial Navigation System)라고 불리워지는 매우 고급자립형 장치로부터 자이로 컴파스로 불리워지는 방위 자이로와 자기 방위 센서를 조합한 방법까지 여러 가지가 있지만, 여기에서는 산업용 소형 RPV의 크기, 가격 및 입수성에서 이용이 가능하다고 생각되는 센서를 중심으로 원리, 종류 및 응용예를 설명한다.

MEMS(micro electro-mechanical systems) inertial switch which is applicable to the ignition Safe-Arm- Unit of propulsion system is devised. The MEMS inertial switch is designed according to the general design procedure for conventional mechanical elements. Unlikely conventional MEMS accelerometer, threshold inertial switching mechanism is adopted which makes a MEMS element an abrupt switching in a certain acceleration level. By comparing the design data and test results of the specimen a small discrepancy in switching acceleration level is found which is presumably due to the nonlinear characteristics of the beam spring and the flexure hinge which are the main parts of the MEMS inertial switch.

This paper describes the evaluation of structural integrity and dynamic characteristic of inertial load test equipments for performance test of railway vehicle propulsion control system. The propulsion control system of railway vehicle has to be confirmed of safety and reliability prior to its application. Therefore, inertial load test equipments were designed through theoretical equation for performance test of propulsion control system. The structural analysis of inertial load test equipments was conducted using Ansys v11.0 and the dynamic characteristic was evaluated using Adams. The results showed that the structural integrity of inertial load test equipment was satisfied with a safety factor of 10.2 on the bearing part under combined load. Also, the structural stability of flywheel according to dynamic simulation was secured by the maximum oscillation displacement within 0.83mm.

In this paper, we present a design and implementation of three dimensional pointing device using Inertial Navigation System(INS) that acquires coordinates and location information without environmental dependancy. The INS measures coordinates based on the data from gyroscope and accelerometer and corrects the measured data from accelerometer using Kalman-Filter. In order to implement the idea of three dimensional pointing device, we choose a three dimensional Space-recognition mouse and use RFIC wireless communication to send a measured data to receiver for printing out the coordinate on display equipment. Based on INS and Kalman-Filter theoretical knowledge, we design and implement a three dimensional pointing device and verified the usability as an input device that can capture a human's move. also, we describe the applicability of this device in ubiquitous computing environment.

항법(navigation)은 기준좌표계에 대한 항체(vehicle)의 위치나 속도를 알아내기 위한 것으로 이를 위한 시스템이 관성항법장치(inertial navigation system-INS)이며 항법기능을 수행하기 위하여 항체에 놓여진 쎈서의 관성성질을 이용한다. INS는 specific force와 관성 각속도의 측정에서 얻은 데이타를 처리함으로 그 기능을 수행한다. 스트랩다운 INS(SINS)는 관성항법장치의 한 종류로 analytic INS라고도 하는데 기준좌표축을 유지하기 위하여 안정테이블을 사용하지 않고 쎈서들을 항체에 직접 부착시켜 초기상태와 현재상태와의 사이에 상대적인 회전방향을 해석적으로 계산한다. INS의 성능은 수많은 오차원(error source)의 함수로 주어지며 이 오차원 중에는 주위환경에 의한 것도 있고 INS 구성에 사용된 기구(instruments)와 관련된 것도 있다. INS 를 해석하는 목적은 항법의 정확도를 알아보는데 있으며 또한 각각의 오차원의 값을 추정하는 것도 부가적인 목적이 된다. 이러한 오차의 추정치는 사양(specification)을 모르는 부품의 성능을 식별하는데 사용될 수 있다. 따라서 INS를 해석함으로 INS를 구성하는 어떤 부품에 대한 성능이 어느정도 개선을 필요로 하는가 알 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 SINS의 오차원을 크게 고도계의 불확실성, 중력의 편향과 이상, 가속도계의 불확실성, 자이로의 불확실성의 네 그룹으로 나누어 상호분산해석(covariance analysis)방법으로 각 오차원이 시스템에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다.

This paper deals with a method of aligning an aircraft fuselage and an inertial navigation sensor using three-dimensional coordinates obtained by an optical method. In order to verify the feasibility, we introduce the method to accurately align the coordinate system of the inertial navigation sensor and the aircraft reference coordinate system. It is verified through simulation that reflects the error level of the measuring device. In addition, optimization method based alignment algorithm is proposed for connection between optical sensor and inertial navigation sensor.

Although the Inertial Measurement Unit is applied to a variety of applications such as ships, submarines, and aircrafts, it is mainly used in the attitude measurement area. But since such equipment is expensive, it has been used only in special fields. In this study, the ship's seaworthiness is verified by measuring the speed, direction, gravity, and acceleration of the ship in real time using a low-cost Inertial Measurement Unit. A research method for estimating fIuid force coefficients was devised. Therefore, this study measured ship motion factors at sea, processed and analyzed the measured data, and evaluated the overall safety of the ship and estimated the resistance and steering performance of the ship.
