The Given

The paper presents the developed integrated GNSS/IMU gyrocompass which, unlike the existing systems, contains a single-axis rotating platform with two antennas installed on it and an inertial measurement unit with tactical grade fiber-optic gyros. It is shown that the proposed design provides attitude solution by observing the signals of only one navigation satellite. The structure of the integrated GNSS/IMU gyrocompass, its specific features and prototype model used in the tests are described. The given test results in urban conditions confirmed heading determination accurate to ±1.5° (3σ).

This paper examines the Implementation of the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) Sensor for Monitoring Rocket Attitude. The monitored rocket attitude data is in the form of vibration which is generated by the payload during the functional test and flight speed, acceleration and direction flight test. The rocket payload device is mounted in the rocket compartment for the function of measuring rocket behavior. Data is sent to ground stations via telemetry devices use baud rate of 57600. Based on the results of G-Shock, G-Force and Vibration testing shows that the payload can work well. In accordance with the results of reading the data on the Graphical user Interface (GUI) can be displayed and shows the rocket payload works well. This rocket payload can transmit data remotely.

Data Transferring

The calibration of Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is the premise of inertial navigation. It includes series of test items, takes a long time, and requires lots of data transferring and calculating operations. Traditional manual method is difficult to ensure its reliability and efficiency. This paper presented an automated IMU calibration system with three layers: the test hardware devices, the calibration software and the calibration database. Calibration software controlled the tests running in the temperature box, on the turntable, vibration table and marble horizontal table. Calibration database stored the test data and calibration parameters. Through the LabVIEW aided database technique, the system not only completed all the test items but also integrated and simplified the calibration procedure. The verification test results showed that the system improved the calibration efficiency and enhanced the calibration reliability greatly.

The Cost

In order to reduce the cost and volume of land vehicle navigation (LVN) systems, a “reduced” inertial measurement unit (IMU) consisting of only one vertical gyro and two or three accelerometers is generally used and is often integrated with other sensors. Since there are no horizontal gyros in a reduced IMU, the pitch and roll cannot be calculated or observed directly from the inertial data, and the navigation performance is thus affected by local terrain variations. In this work, a reduced IMU is integrated with global positioning system (GPS) data and a novel local terrain predictor (LTP) algorithm. The latter is used primarily to help estimate the pitch and roll of the reduced IMU system and thus to improve the navigation performance. In this paper, two reduced IMU configurations and two grades of IMUs are investigated using field data. Test results show that the LTP is valid. Specifically, inclusion of the LTP provides more than an 80% horizontal velocity improvement relative to the case when the LTP is not used in a GPS/reduced IMU configuration.

Purpose – Calibration and 6-DOF test of a unique inertial measurement unit (IMU) using a Quadrotor aircraft. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the above issue. Design/methodology/approach – An IMU with the special capability of measuring the angular acceleration was developed and tested. A Quadrotor aircraft is used as 6-DOF test platform. Kinematics modeling of the Quadrotor was used in the determination of the Euler angles, while Dynamics modeling aided in the design the closed loop controller. For safety, the flight test was performed on a 6-DOF constrained reduced-gravity test stand. Findings – The developed IMU is suitable for measuring states and its time derivatives of mini UAVs. Not only that but also a simple control algorithm can be integrated in the same processing unit (a 32 microcontroller in this case). Originality/value – The tested IMU as well as the safety constrained test techniques are unique.
