To perform precise approach and landing concerning an aircraft in automatic mode, local airfield-based landing systems are used. For joint processing of measurements of the onboard inertial navigation systems (INS), altimeters and local landing systems, the Kalman filter is usually used. The application of the quadratic criterion in the Kalman filter entails the well-known problem of high sensitivity of the estimate to anomalous measurement errors. During the automatic approach phase, abnormal navigation errors can lead to disaster, so the data fusion algorithm must automatically identify and isolate abnormal measurements. This paper presents a recurrent filtering algorithm that is resistant to anomalous errors in measurements and considers its application in the data fusion problem for landing system measurements with onboard sensor measurements—INS and altimeters. The robustness of the estimate is achieved through the combined use of the least modulus method and the Kalman filter. To detect and isolate failures the chi-square criterion is used. It makes possible the customization of the algorithm in accordance with the requirements for false alarm probability and the alarm missing probability. Testing results of the robust filtering algorithm are given both for synthesized data and for real measurements.

Attitude estimation systems often use two or more different sensors to increase reliability and accuracy. Although gyroscopes do not have problems like limited range, interference, and line of sight obscuration, they suffer from slow drift. On the other hand, inclinometers are drift-free but they are sensitive to transverse accelerations and have slow dynamics. This paper presents an extended Kalman filter (EKF)-based data fusion algorithm which utilizes the complementary noise profiles of these two types of sensors to extend their limits. To avoid complexities of dynamic modelling of the platform and its interaction with the environment, gyro modelling will be used to implement indirect (error state) form of the Kalman filter. The great advantage of this approach is its independence from the structure of the platform and its applicability to any system with a similar set of sensors. Separate bias formulation of the Kalman filter will be used to reduce the computational complexity of the algorithm. In addition, a systematic approach based on wavelet decomposition will be utilized to estimate noise covariances used in the Kalman filter formulation. This approach solves many of the convergence problems encountered in the implementation of EKF due to the choice of covariance matrices. Experimental implementation of the estimator shows the excellent performance of the filter.

In this paper, we propose a new approach for fault tolerant localization using multi-sensors data fusion for a unicycle-type mobile robot. The main contribution of this paper is a new architecture proposal for fault diagnosis and reconfiguration for mobile robot localization using multi-sensors data fusion and the duplication/comparison approach. Four different sensors usually embedded in mobile robots (Camera, IMU, GPS, and Odometer) are considered, while six different sensors couples combinations are used for sensor data fusion and the duplication of the localization and estimation system. In order to reach this aim, three different filters (EKF, SVSF, and ASVSF) have been proposed and compared. For each selected filter, a comparison mechanism is then introduced to compute different residuals by comparing the estimated robot position for each sensor couples separately. Faults are then detected using the structural residual diagnosis method. This approach assumes the occurrence of a single fault at a given time. A reconfiguration mechanism is then applied by selected the healthy sensors couple and their corresponding fusion filter. Several scenarios are considered for navigation-based fault tolerant localization approaches. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the advantage and performance of the proposed architecture. The proposed solutions are implemented and validated successfully using the V-REP simulator.

The paper proposes the combination of the extended Kalman filter and an adaptive digital filter to compensate an operational error of the extended Kalman filter during data fusion of a mobile robot control system. The paper describes the structure and operation of such combination, shows the buffer memory configuration of an adaptive digital filter.

In order to improve the reliability of measurement data, the multisensor data fusion technology has progressed greatly in improving the accuracy of measurement data. This paper utilizes the real-time, recursive, and optimal estimation characteristics of unscented Kalman filter (UKF), as well as the unique advantages of multiscale wavelet transform decomposition in data analysis to effectively integrate observational data from multiple sensors. A new multiscale UKF-based multisensor data fusion algorithm is proposed by combining the UKF with multiscale signal analysis. Firstly, model-based UKF is introduced into the multiple sensors, and then the model is decomposed at multiple scales onto the coarse scale with wavelets. Next, signals decomposed from fine to coarse scales are adjusted using the denoised observational data from corresponding sensors and reconstructed with wavelets to obtain the fused signals. Finally, the processed data are fused using adaptive weighted fusion algorithm. Comparison of simulation and experimental results shows that the proposed method can effectively improve the antijamming capability of the measurement system and ensure the reliability and accuracy of sensor measurement system compared to the use of data fusion algorithm alone.
