Generally, underwater unmanned vehicle have adopted an inertial navigation system (INS), dead reckoning (DR), acoustic navigation and geophysical navigation techniques as the navigation method because GPS does not work in deep underwater environment. Even if the tactical inertial sensor can provide very detail measurement during long operation time, it is not suitable to use the tactical inertial sensor for small size and low cost UUV because the tactical inertial sensor is expensive and large. One alternative to INS is attitude heading reference system (AHRS) with the micro-machined electro mechanical system (MEMS) inertial sensor because of MEMS inertial sensor's small size and low power requirement. A cost effective and small size attitude heading reference system (AHRS) which incorporates measurements from 3-axis micro-machined electro mechanical system (MEMS) gyroscopes, accelerometers, and 3-axis magnetometers has been developed to provide a complete attitude solution for UUV. The AHRS based MEMS overcome many problems that have inhibited the adoption of inertial system for small UUV such as cost, size and power consumption. Several evaluation experiments were carried out for the validation of the developed AHRS's function and these experiments results are presented. Experiments results prove the fact that the developed MEMS AHRS satisfied the required specification.

We study on the velocity matching algorithm for transfer alignment of inertial navigation system(INS) using robust H$_2$ filter. We suggest an uncertainty model for INS and apply the suggested discrete robust H$_2$ filter to the uncertainty model compared with kalman filter, the discrete robust H$_2$ filter is shown by simulation to have good performance of alignment time and accuracy.

In this study, a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) / Inertial Navigation System (INS) / odometer / barometer integrated navigation system that uses a commercial navigation device including Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometer and gyroscope in addition to GNSS, odometer information obtained from a vehicle, and a separate MEMS barometer sensor was implemented, and the performance was verified. In the case of GNSS and GNSS/INS integrated navigation system that are generally used in a navigation device, the performance would deteriorate in areas where GNSS signals are not available. Therefore, an integrated navigation system that calculates a better navigation solution in areas where GNSS signals are not available compared to general GNSS/INS by correcting the velocity error of GNSS/INS using an odometer and by correcting the cumulative altitude error of GNSS/INS using a barometer was suggested. To verify the performance of the navigation system, a commercial navigation device (Softman, Hyundai Mnsoft, http://www.hyundai-mnsoft.com) and a barometer sensor (ST Company) were installed at a vehicle, and an actual driving test was performed. To examine the performance of the algorithm, the navigation solutions of general GNSS/INS and the GNSS/INS/odometer/barometer integrated navigation system were compared in an area where GNSS signals are not available. As a result, a navigation solution that has a smaller position error than that of GNSS/INS could be obtained in the area where GNSS signals are not available.

In order to guide a flying object which uses a seeker(SKR) and an inertial navigation system(INS) properly, we should confirm that axes of both equipments are aligned in the scope expected. In this paper we have proposed a method to measure the misaligned angle between a SKR and an INS during the system integration procedure. And we expanded this method to measure misalignments between several SKRs and an INS in case of captive flight test.

The errors of INS (Inertial Navigation System) are known to grow in time. To compensate the accumulated errors, measurements of external or onboard sensors are extensively utilized to form an integrated navigation system. Recently, INS/GPS integrated navigation systems have become popular since exact position and velocity information can be utilized by low cost GPS receivers. Unfortunately, this configuration cannot be trusted at all times especially when there are intentional or unexpected jammings and interruptions. To aid INS irrespectively of these cases, an INS/Image sensor integrated navigation system configuration is designed only based on the information of image sensor gimble angles. The performance of the INS/Image sensor integrated navigation system is evaluated by Monte Carlo simulation.

The GPS attitude output or carrier phase observables can be effectively utilized to compensate the attitude error of the strapdown inertial navigation system. However, when the integer ambiguity is not correctly resolved and/or a cycle slip occurs, an erroneous GPS output can be obtained. If the erroneous GPS information is directly applied to the AGPS/INS integration system, the performance of the system can be rapidly degraded. This paper proposes an AGPS/INS integration system using the triple difference carrier phase observables. The proposed integration system contains a cycle slip detection algorithm, in which inertial information is combined. Computer simulations and van test were performed to verify the proposed integration system. The results show that the proposed system gives an accurate and reliable navigation solution even when the integer ambiguity is not correct and the cycle slip occurs.

관성항법장치는 내장된 관성센서만을 이용하여 외부의 도움 없이 항체의 가속도 및 각속도를 이용하여 항법 정보를 계산한다. 하지만, 장시간 운용 시 관성항법장치는 시간이 지남에 따라 오차가 누적되어 항법 성능이 저하된다. 이러한 관성항법장치의 누적 오차를 줄이기 위하여 관성센서조립체를 일정한 절차로 회전시켜 관성센서 오차가 회전을 통해 상쇄되도록 항법 성능을 개선 시키는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 2축 회전형 관성항법장치의 성능에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 오차 요소를 식별하고 각 오차가 항법 성능에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다. 오차 분석 수행 후 시뮬레이션을 통해 관성항법장치의 항법 성능분석 결과를 제시하였다.

This paper proposes a design method of a CDU(Control Display Unit) for commercial INS(Inertial Navigation Systems). In order to guarantee reusability and extendability, the design method is based on the class programming of the Windows operating system. Since the CDU has abstracted functions and variables, it can be interfaced with any INS. It is also easy to extend the designed functions using inheritance and polymorphism of the class. In order to show usefulness of the CDU, it has been implemented for the H-726 INS.

관성항법장치(Inertial Navigation System)는 항법 수행 전 동체 좌표계(body frame)와 항법 좌표계(navigation frame)사이의 좌표 변환 행렬(Direction Cosine Matrix: DCM)을 결정하여 초기자세를 구하는데 이 과정을 정렬(alignment)이라 한다. 정렬을 시작하기 위해서는 INS의 초기 위치 정보가 필요한데 해당 정보가 INS에 미리 입력되어 있지 않거나 당장에 초기위치를 모를 경우 이로 인해 INS에 전원이 인가된 후 정렬에 진입하기까지의 대기시간이 존재한다. 이러한 대기시간을 제거하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 INS 전원 인가 즉시 현재위치와 상이한 가상의 초기위치 값을 장입하여 스트랩다운 INS 정렬을 시작하고 추후에 정확한 위치를 INS에 입력하여 자세오차를 보상하는 정렬 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 항법 좌표계에서의 INS 센서 오차가 시간이 지남에 따라 자세오차에 미치는 영향성을 분석하여 가상의 초기위치 값 입력 시 발생하는 자세오차 만큼을 보상하는 폐루프 정렬 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하였다.

Two expressions for the inertial navigation system error equations are derived using a perturbation method; one in navigation frame, and the other in geographic frame. The equivalence between two expressions is shown by explicit equations and computer simulation.
