The Kalman Filter algorithm usually cannot estimate noise statistics in real-time, in order to deal with this issue, a new kind of improved Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter algorithm is proposed. Based on residual sequence, this algorithm mainly improves the adaptive estimator of the filter algorithm, which can estimate measurement noise in real-time. Furthermore, this new filter algorithm is applied to a SINS/GPS loosely-coupled integrated navigation system, which can automatically adjust the covariance matrix of measurement noise as noise varies in the system. Finally, the original Extended Kalman Filter and the improved Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter are applied respectively to simulate for the SINS/GPS loosely-coupled model. Tests demonstrate that, the improved Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter reduces both position error and velocity error compared with the original Extended Kalman Filter.

A constrained low-cost SINS/OD filter aided with magnetometer is proposed in this paper. The filter is designed to provide a land vehicle navigation solution by fusing the measurements of the microelectromechanical systems based inertial measurement unit (MEMS IMU), the magnetometer (MAG), and the velocity measurement from odometer (OD). First, accelerometer and magnetometer integrated algorithm is studied to stabilize the attitude angle. Next, a SINS/OD/MAG integrated navigation system is designed and simulated, using an adaptive Kalman filter (AKF). It is shown that the accuracy of the integrated navigation system will be implemented to some extent. The field-test shows that the azimuth misalignment angle will diminish to less than 1°. Finally, an outliers detection algorithm is studied to estimate the velocity measurement bias of the odometer. The experimental results show the enhancement in restraining observation outliers that improves the precision of the integrated navigation system.

Describes briefly ultrasonic positioning system (UPS) and digital magnetic compass (DMC) heading measurement principle,analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of each option. To improve the accuracy of the heading measurement, As the theoretical basis of adaptive Kalman filter, designed a kind of ups and dmc integrated navigation system. Based on both real measurement data, made a simulation experiment and confirmed the feasibility of the navigation system.
