The initial alignment error model of SINS (Strap-down Inertial Navigation System) with large misalignment angle is nonlinear. The traditional EKF (Extended Kalman Filter) was used to linearization a nonlinear system, but its performance is limited. In this paper we use the SRUKF (Square Root Unscented Kalman Filter) to process this nonlinear system and the results indicate that SRUKF is better than EKF in convergence speed and estimation accuracy.

A new moving state marine initial alignment method of strap-down inertial navigation system (SINS) is proposed based on high-degree cubature Kalman filter (CKF), which can capture higher order Taylor expansion terms of nonlinear alignment model than the existing third-degree CKF, unscented Kalman filter and central difference Kalman filter, and improve the accuracy of initial alignment under large heading misalignment angle condition. Simulation results show the efficiency and advantage of the proposed initial alignment method as compared with existing initial alignment methods for the moving state SINS initial alignment with large heading misalignment angle.

In order to improve the accuracy of initial alignment which determines the accuracy of navigation, a Sage-Husa adaptive kalman filter algorithm is applied to SINS initial alignment of single-axis rotation system. The simulation result further shows that in the case of inaccurate statistical property of noise, the estimation accuracy of Sage-Husa adaptive kalman filter is better than the conventional kalman filter.

The state of charge (SOC) plays an important role in battery management systems (BMS). However, SOC cannot be measured directly and an accurate state estimation is difficult to obtain due to the nonlinear battery characteristics. In this paper, a method of SOC estimation with parameter updating by using the dual square root cubature Kalman filter (DSRCKF) is proposed. The proposed method has been validated experimentally and the results are compared with dual extended Kalman filter (DEKF) and dual square root unscented Kalman filter (DSRUKF) methods. Experimental results have shown that the proposed method has the most balance performance among them in terms of the SOC estimation accuracy, execution time, and convergence rate.

This study has presented an efficient adaptive unscented Kalman filter (AUKF) with the new measurement model for the strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS) to improve the initial alignment under the marine mooring conditions. Conventional methods of the accurate alignment in the ship’s SINS usually fail to succeed within an acceptable period of time due to the components of external perturbations caused by the movement of sea waves and wind waves. To speed up convergence, AUKF takes into account the impact of the dynamic acceleration on the filter and its gain adaptively tuned by considering the dynamic scale sensed by accelerometers. This approach considerably improved the corrections of the current residual error on the SINS and decreased the influence due to the external perturbations caused by the ship’s movement. Initial alignment algorithm based on AUKF is designed for large misalignment angles and verified by experimental data. The experimental test results show that the proposed algorithm enhanced the convergence speed of SINS initial alignment compared with some state-of-the-art existing approaches.

Abstract The huge computational expense has been a main challenge while applying the sigma-point unscented Kalman filter (SPUKF) to a high-dimensional system. This study focuses on this issue and presents two methods to construct a reduced-rank sigma-point unscented Kalman filter (RRSPUKF). Both techniques employ the truncated singular value decomposition (TSVD) to factorize the covariance matrix and reduce its rank through truncation. The reduced-rank square root matrix is used to select the most important sigma points that can retain the main statistical features of the original sigma points. In the first technique, TSVD is applied on the covariance matrix constructed in the data space [RRSPUKF(D)], whereas in the second technique TSVD is applied on the covariance matrix constructed in the ensemble space [RRSPUKF(E)]. The two methods are applied to a realistic El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) prediction model [Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory model, version 5 (LDEO5)] to assimilate the sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies. The results show that both the methods are more computationally efficient than the full-rank SPUKF, in spite of losing some estimation accuracy. When the truncation reaches a trade-off between cost expense and estimation accuracy, both methods are able to analyze the phase and intensity of all major ENSO events from 1971 to 2001 with comparable estimation accuracy. Furthermore, the RRSPUKF is compared against ensemble square root filter (EnSRF), showing that the overall analysis skill of RRSPUKF and EnSRF are comparable to each other, but the former is more robust than the latter.

Aiming at the problem that Cubature Kalman Filter(CKF) has low accuracy and robustness under the condition of strapdown inertial navigation system(SINS) initial alignment due to model error and external disturbance, Reduced Multiple Strong Tracking Cubature Kalman Filter(RMSTCKF) is proposed, and the algorithm flow and sub-optimal solution of multiple fading factor are derived. Multiple fading factor can improve tracking ability under each state according to the degree of uncertainty of different states, having stronger adaptability and robustness. Applying RMSTCKF to large azimuth misalignment angle error function described by Euler platform error angle(EPEA), carrying out the simulation under two different conditions, namely noise mismatch and the base is disturbed, and making contrast between RSTCKF and RCKF, the simulation results show that the filter accuracy and convergence rate of RMSTCK when system noise mismatches with true noise are obviously better than RSTCKF and RCKF, having better practical value in engineering.

For a land-vehicle strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS), the problem of initial alignment with large misalignment angle in-motion needs to be solved urgently. This paper proposes an improved ACKF/KF initial alignment method for SINS aided by odometer. The SINS error equation with large misalignment angle is established first in the form of an Euler angle. The odometer/gyroscope dead reckoning (DR) error equation is deduced, which makes the observation equation linear when the position is taken as the observation of the Kalman filter. Then, based on the cubature Kalman filter, the Sage-Husa adaptive filter and the characteristics of the observation equation, an improved ACKF/KF method is proposed, which can accomplish initial alignment well in the case of unknown measurement noise. Computer simulation results show that the performance of the proposed ACKF/KF algorithm is superior to EKF, CKF and AEKF method in accuracy and stability, and the vehicle test validates its advantages.
