Method of Processing the Measurements from Two Units of Micromechanical Gyroscopes for Solving the Orientation Problem

Resumo

The data processing problem in attitude and heading reference system based on two units of micromechanical gyroscopes is considered as a special class of information processing problems from two measurement sources. A novel algorithm used for processing the measurements data from two units of micromechanical gyroscopes is proposed, which can improve orientation system performance while reducing the requirements for external sensors. A mathematical error model of micromechanical gyroscopes and orientation system is given, considering the rotation of the measurement units, and the advantages of the proposed method is analyzed in comparison with other algorithms.
