We compare the position precision of a purely inertial strap-down algorithm with motion-constraints (SMC, [1]) to gyroscope-aided odometry navigation (GAO). An RTK-corrected GNSS was used in parallel to generate the reference trajectory. Initial heading of both methods was determined by a dual-antenna GNSS moving baseline setup. Across five repeated experiments with a traveled distance of 1600 m over 275 s each, GAO delivered a mean RMSE of 4.36 m, whereas SMC resulted in errors of 634 m. For GAO, we show that initial heading error was dominant compared to the influences of gyroscope noise. Determining accurate initial heading is therefore deemed crucial for applications with prolonged GNSS outages.","PeriodicalId":435781,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on Inertial Sensors and Systems (INERTIAL)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124235331","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 implementation is first illustrated using an example of a generic accelerometer incorporating two sensing double-ended tuning forks (DETF).

The frequency-based measurement of the input angular rate is realized using two digital phase-locked loops and implementing electrostatic frequency tuning to decrease the frequency split between the two near-degenerate modes from 4 Hz to 0.8 Hz.

We experimentally demonstrated the impact of metal coating on both the quality factor and the electrical resistance using a developed in-house FS Dual-Shell Gyroscope (DSG), a version of micro-HRG. We derived an electromechanical model, analytically predicted behavior, and experimentally confirmed the effect of electrical resistance on the motion detection sensitivity and the overall noise performance of the DSG.

This work compares the performance of a virtual reality (VR) headset-embedded gyroscope and of a novel high-performance gyroscope in measuring median HR from the BCG signal obtained from subtle head movements. Nine healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. Head BCG signals were acquired for 1 minute in supine position using the triaxial gyroscope (VRG) embedded in an Oculus Quest (Facebook) headset, and a monoaxial high-performance gyroscope (HPG). 1-lead ECG signal was acquired simultaneously and used as a gold standard for HR measurement (HRECG). Automatic beat-by-beat identification was performed on the BCG signals, from which median HR was computed (HRVRG and HRHPG). Results obtained with the three sensors were statistically compared, and linear regression and Bland Altman analyses were performed. Pitch and roll head rotations provided more accurate HR estimates compared to the yaw rotation, with more marked peaks in the BCG signal, possibly due to the to the anatomical orientation of the carotid arteries and to how the head is perfused with blood. Also, the HPG outperformed the VRG, thus potentially allowing a more detailed analysis of the BCG signal morphology, with possible application in the extraction of novel biomarkers with clinical utility.","PeriodicalId":435781,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on Inertial Sensors and Systems (INERTIAL)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122266141","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}

Most commercially available general purpose MEMS IMUs are sensitive to ambient temperature changes. As a result, ZUPT-aided INS using these devices can have a degraded performance when operating in temperature-varying scenarios. This paper proposed a ZUPT-aided INS enhanced with a Back-Propagation Neural Network (BPNN)-based thermal compensation method. The proposed approach trained 12 different BPNNs to mitigate 12 thermal-induced errors separately, including bias drifts and noise standard deviation variations of accelerometers and gyroscopes along the three axes. We compared the proposed temperature-compensated ZUPT-aided INS with the traditional ZUPT-aided INS with a series of pedestrian indoor walking experiments in both temperature-static and -varying environments. Our experimental results showed that in the static cases, the traditional approach and our proposed approach had similar position Root-Mean-Squared Error (RMSE) of 0.38 m and 0.34 m, respectively. In the varying cases, however, the traditional approach had an RMSE of 9.29 m while our proposed approach significantly reduced the RMSE to 0.57 m.","PeriodicalId":435781,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on Inertial Sensors and Systems (INERTIAL)","volume":"46 9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128167039","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}
