A Study on the Influence of Pseudo–Acceleration Vector for Accelerometer Calibration

Abstract

In order to use the accelerometer with high accuracy, it is generally necessary to calibrate the accelerometer and correct the observation data. The authors proposed a method for easily calibrating the accelerometer by generating the pseudo– acceleration vector from a limited observed acceleration vector. However, the analysis of how the pseudo–acceleration vector works on the calibration algorithm was insufficient, and the results are reported in this paper.
