본 논문의 목적은 이족 로봇이 스스로의 위치, 속도, 자세 등을 판단할 수 있도록 하기위한 관성항법시스템을 설계하는 것이다. 관성항법시스템은 외부장치의 도움 없이 로봇의 위치, 속도 및 자세 결정이 가능한 독립적인 항법 시스템으로 전파장애나 환경변화에 영향을 받지 않으며, 비교적 정확한 위치정보를 제공한다. 반면 시간이 지남에 따라 오차가 누적된다는 단점이 있으나 좁은 공간에서 단시간 동작하는 이족로봇에 있어 큰 문제가 되지 않는다. 이 관성항법시스템을 이용하여 독립적인 이족 로봇이 위치, 속도 및 자세를 판단 가능하여 보다 지능적인 임무를 수행할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 관성항법시스템의 구조와 이론적 배경을 통한 설계, 그리고 이족로봇에 적용을 위한 방법을 제시한다.

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.

Inertial navigation system has navigation errors because of the error of inertial measurement unit (IMU) and misalignment over time. In order to solve this problem, aided navigation system is performed using global navigation satellite system (GNSS), speedometer, etc. The inertial navigation system equipped with underwater vehicle mainly uses speedometer and performed aided navigation because satellite signals do not pass through underwater. There are DVL, EM-Log, and RPM in the speedometer, and the sensors are applied according to the system environment. This paper describes velocity aided navigation using RPM of inertial navigation system operating in high speed and deep water environment. In addition, we proposes an algorithm to compensate the limit of RPM with straight direction and the current velocity error. There are results of monte-calo simulation to prove performance of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we present the requirements specification to develop the small ring laser gyroscope(RLG) which is applicable to the medium-grade inertial navigation system(INS) widely used as a main navigation system. To this end, first we analyse the performance specifications of RLG which is needed to configure the medium-grade INS and then we present the design results of RLG to meet the performance specifications, based on the overseas technology survey and the theoretical analysis. It is also shown in this paper what technology is required to develop a small RLG.

This study investigates Terrain Aided Inertial Navigation(TAIN) which consists of Inertial Navigation System (INS) with the optical sensor for precise planetary landing. Image processing is conducted to extract the feature points between measured terrain data and on-board implemented terrain information. The navigation algorithm with Iterated Extended Kalman Filter(IEKF) can compensate for the navigation error, and provide precise navigation information compared to single INS. Simulation results are used to demonstrate the feasibility of integration to accomplish precise planetary landing. The proposed navigation approach can be implemented to the whole system coupled with guidance and control laws.

This paper explores a real-time system implementation to couple tightly StrapDown Inertial Navigation System(SDINS) and Global Positioning System(GPS) mounted on the aircraft. When implementing the SDINS/GPS coupled system in real-time processor, we have to deliberate SDINS's unique characteristics based on the ring laser gyro, and besides, lever-arm, measurements, and error compensation method. The novel modeling method is applied to system the misalignment error term of gyro to estimate the cumulative heading attitude errors while the aircraft banking to turn repeatedly. Captive Flight Test results show that the proposed modeling strategy has good performance.

Position information is important to carry out military operations. In general, GPS is used to estimate position. However, GPS is vulnerable to jamming due to the low received signal strength, therefore GPS can be easily jammed. The relative navigation is an auxiliary navigation system defined in JTIDS. When GPS is jammed, the relative navigation requires ground reference units on the ground to operate accurately. If the ground reference unit does not exist, nodes operated by the relative navigation depend on the inertial navigation system to identify their position. However, this positioning scheme based on only INS causes accumulative position error, therefore the nodes cannot identify their position accurately for a long time. In this paper, we propose an alternative to reduce position error generated by depending inertial navigation system. In order to verify that the performance of proposed scheme is better than that of the existing scheme, various simulations are conducted.

INS(inertial navigation system) aligns itself using gravity and Earth's rotational rate from accelerometers and gyro sensors when stationary. Typically, ZUPT(zero velocity update), which is based on a linear error model Kalman filter, is used when it is stationary. However, such algorithms assume stationary conditions, leading to increased alignment errors or filter divergence during maritime mooring due to wave-induced motion. This paper designs a mooring alignment algorithm for maritime platforms using a Kalman filter, which uses large heading angle error model and an initial position correction technique. And it is validated by simulation. Furthermore, it is confirmed that applying this to a rotational INS dramatically improves performance through the principle of bias cancellation.

This paper discusses recent development trends of fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) in space application. Fiber optic gyroscope utilizes Sagnac effect to measure the angular rate of a rotating object in space. Having a rather short development history compared to ring laser gyroscope (RLG), the fiber optic gyroscope, owing to the emerging technologies in fiber optic society and the digital signal processing technique, reveals itself as a noteworthy replacement of the ring laser gyroscope in the space mission. This paper summarizes the current trends of fiber optic gyroscope based on the actual products commercialized in the market over the last decades, while presenting the future development trends of the fiber optic gyroscope in the space exploration.
