Inertial Navigation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Navigation, 1977
The following letter to Nature, dated 24 April 1873, might make an appropriate sequel to ‘The history of inertial navigation’ by W. Wrigley in the January issue of the Journal. As well as containing some interesting speculation about animal navigation, which we seem no nearer resolving a century later, the letter includes an introduction to the idea of

Symmetry-preserving Observers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper presents three non-linear observers on three examples of engineering interest: a chemical reactor, a non-holonomic car, and an inertial navigation system. For each example, the design is based on physical symmetries.

Learning Pose Estimation for UAV Autonomous Navigation and Landing Using Visual-Inertial Sensor Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this work, we propose a robust network-in-the-loop control system for autonomous navigation and landing of an Unmanned-Aerial-Vehicle (UAV). To estimate the UAV’s absolute pose, we develop a deep neural network (DNN) architecture for visual-inertial ...

A Coarse Alignment Method Based on Digital Filters and Reconstructed Observation Vectors

open access: yesSensors, 2017
In this paper, a coarse alignment method based on apparent gravitational motion is proposed. Due to the interference of the complex situations, the true observation vectors, which are calculated by the apparent gravity, are contaminated.
