The PDR indoor positioning method has been implemented in a Kalman-based framework. The Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is updated with velocity and angular rate measurements by the Zero-Velocity-Update (ZUPT) and Zero-Angular-Rate-Update (ZARU) separately. There is an advantage of the step detection combined with ZUPT and ZARU for calculating the actual position, distance travelled and estimating the IMU sensors' inherent accumulated error by EKF. Several tests (100Hz, 50Hz and 25Hz) with MTI/IMU device have been performed and analyzed in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed methods. In this paper the final results of normal, slow and fast walking at 100Hz are presented, which are the most stable.","PeriodicalId":243907,"journal":{"name":"2018 25th Saint Petersburg International Conference on Integrated Navigation Systems (ICINS)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122466078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data observed consist of the gyro counts of vertical projection of the Earth's angular rate and the bilateral gas discharge maintaining voltages in the ring laser. The measurements were carried out under conditions of prolonged operation after the gyroscope was started, stabilization of the discharge currents and the ambient temperature. Detected spontaneous changes in the maintaining voltages are the results of fluctuations in the contamination concentration in the active medium of the laser. The revealed process leads to the non-reciprocity of counter propagating waves, which the ring laser generates. The swing of the trend line for registered angular rate correlates with the oscillations of the bilateral gas discharge maintaining voltages. The Allan variance analysis confirms the observed value of the laser gyro bias instability that makes it possible to identify the process of the appearance of unsteady gas flows in the ring laser with changes in the concentration of contaminations in the laser active medium.","PeriodicalId":243907,"journal":{"name":"2018 25th Saint Petersburg International Conference on Integrated Navigation Systems (ICINS)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115361472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article we present a new method for latitude determination for a fixed base. The method is based on strapdown inertial technology. The Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is used for latitude and azimuth determination. The IMU is composed of accelerometers, gyroscopes and a signal processing circuit. The error models of the latitude determination method and gyrocompassing mode are developed. It is discussed that the errors of latitude determination and gyrocompassing mode depend on the errors of gyroscopes and accelerometers. The experiments have demonstrated that the application of this method provides for latitude determination. The IMU experiments were conducted with ring laser gyroscopes and pendulum accelerometers.","PeriodicalId":243907,"journal":{"name":"2018 25th Saint Petersburg International Conference on Integrated Navigation Systems (ICINS)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126520024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Field experiments were conducted in conditions with a pronounced temporal and Doppler hydroacoustic signal energy dissipation with a distance of up to 350 km and the speed of the signal receiver movement of up to 4 knots. The obtained data allow us to formulate general principles for the technology of constructing a network of hydroacoustic signal reference sources to solve the problem of observing underwater moving objects over a long distance and to propose the concept of creating a global underwater navigation system. Scientifically grounded and experimentally researched technical solutions for creating fundamentally new elements of an AUV long-range navigation system will significantly increase the period of autonomy, the accuracy of performing survey and exploration works and monitoring the coastal zone by underwater mobile objects.","PeriodicalId":243907,"journal":{"name":"2018 25th Saint Petersburg International Conference on Integrated Navigation Systems (ICINS)","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124253179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
