Since GPS signals are vulnerable to interference and obstruction, many alternate aiding systems have been proposed to integrate with an inertial navigation system. Among these alternate systems, the vision-aided method has become more attractive due to its benefits in weight, cost and power consumption. This paper proposes a loosely-coupled vision/INS integrated navigation method which can work in GPS-denied environments. The proposed method improves the navigation accuracy by correcting INS navigation and sensor errors using position and attitude outputs of a landmark based vision navigation system. Furthermore, it has advantage to provide redundant navigation output regardless of INS output. Computer simulations and the van tests have been carried out in order to show validity of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method works well and gives reliable navigation outputs with better performance.

The Global Positioning System(GPS) and the Strapdown Inertial Navigation System(SDINS) techniques have been widely utilized in many applications. However each system has its own weak point when used in a stand-alone mode. SDINS suffers from fast error accumulation dependent on an operating time while GPS has problem of cycle slips and just provides low update rate. The best solution is to integrate the GPS and SDINS system and its integration allows compensation for each shortcomings. This paper, first, is to define and derive error equations of integrated SDINS/GPS system before it will be applied on a real hardware system with gyro, accelerometer and GPS receiver. Second, the accuracy, availability and performance of this mechanization are verified on the simulation study.

GPS (Global Positioning System) is the most ideal navigation system which can be used on the earth irrespective of time and weather conditions. GPS has been used for various applications such as construction, survey, environment, communication, intelligent vehicles and airplanes and the needs of GPS are increasing in these days. This paper deals with the design and implementation of the RTOS (Real-Time Operating System) for a GPS navigation computer in the GPS/INS integrated navigation system. The RTOS provides the optimal environment for execution and the base platform to develop GPS application programs. The key facilities supplied by the RTOS developed in this paper are priority-based preemptive scheduling policy, dynamic memory management, intelligent interrupt handling, timers and IPC, etc. We also verify the correct operations of all application tasks of the GPS navigation computer on the RTOS and evaluate the performance by measuring the overhead of using the RTOS services.

This paper demonstrates a unique method for measuring vehicle states such as body sideslip angle and tire sideslip angle using Global Positioning System(GPS) velocity information in conjunction with other sensors. A method for integrating Inertial Navigation System (INS) sensors with GPS measurements to provide higher update rate estimates of the vehicle states is presented, and the method can be used to estimate the tire cornering stiffness. The experimental results for the GPS velocity-based sideslip angle measurement. From the experimental results, it can be concluded that the proposed method has an advantage for future implementation in a vehicle safety system.

Misalignment can be an important problem in the integration of GPS/INS. Observability analysis of the alignment errors in the integration of low-grade inertial sensors and multi-antenna GPS is presented in this paper. A control-theoretic approach is adopted to study the observability of time-varying error dynamics models. The relationship between vehicle motions and the observability of the errors in the lever arm and relative attitude between GPS antenna array and IMU is given. It is shown that alignment errors can be made observable through maneuvering. The change of acceleration makes the components of the relative attitude error that are orthogonal to the direction of the acceleration change observable. The change of angular velocity makes the components of the lever arm error that are orthogonal to the direction of the angular velocity observable. The motion of constant angular velocity has no influence on the estimation of the lever arm.

In this paper, we represent the implementation and performance analysis of vector tracking loop based GPS receiver for jamming environment. The vector tracking loop navigation performance is compared by simulation with conventional tracking loop. The simulation results shows that vector tracking loop is more robust than conventional tracking loop in jamming environment. The vector tracking loop can gain 2dB in jamming performance capability over a conventional GPS receiver. Also, Anti-jamming performance of INS Doppler aiding and deep integration method are compared.

최근 국내외에서 재래식 폭탄의 정확도와 사거리를 향상시킨 정밀 유도 무기에 관한 연구가 활발하게 진행 중에 있다. 국내에서는 국방과학연구소의 주도로 재래식 폭탄에 GAK(GPS Adapter Kit)를 장착하는 연구가 진행 중이다. GAK는 GPS/INS 복합 항법 모듈을 내장한 사거리 연장 유도 키트의 일종으로 폭탄이 투하되면 접혀 있던 날개가 전개되고 이후 날개의 플래퍼론을 구동하여 유도 조종을 수행한다. 복합 항법 모듈은 상용의 MEMS IMU, 내장형 GPS 수신기 및 항법 컴퓨터와 실시간 운영 체제에서 구동되는 항법 소프트웨어로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 복합 항법 모듈의 비행 시험 결과를 제시하였다. 시험 결과 항법 모듈이 실시간으로 정상적인 동작을 수행하였으며 GPS 유도 폭탄의 유도 조종에 적합한 항법 정보를 제공하였음을 확인하였다.

When the low cost IMU is used, the result of the stationary self alignment is not suitable for navigation. In this paper, an in-motion alignment method is proposed to obtain an accurate initial attitude of a low cost IMU based GPS/INS integration system. To design Kalman filter for alignment, large heading error model is introduced. And then Kalman filter is designed to estimate initial attitude error as the indirect feedback filter. In order to assess performance of the alignment method, computer simulations are carried out. The simulation results show that initial attitude error rapidly reduces.
