A calibration technique for a redundant IMU with low-grade inertial sensors is proposed. In order to calibrate the redundant IMU that can detect and isolate a faulty sensor, the fundamental coordinate frames in the IMU are defined and the IMU error is modeled based on the frames. Equations to estimate the error coefficients of the redundant IMU are formulated, and a test sequence using the 2-axis rate table is also presented. Finally, a redundant IMU with cone configuration is implemented using the low-grade inertial sensors and the performance of the proposed technique is verified by some experiments.
