Abstract
In order to maintain a relatively high accuracy of navigation performance during global positioning system (GPS) outages, a novel robust least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM)-aided fusion methodology is explored to provide the pseudo-GPS position information for the inertial navigation system (INS). The relationship between the yaw, specific force, velocity, and the position increment is modeled. Rather than share the same weight in the traditional LS-SVM, the proposed algorithm allocates various weights for different data, which makes the system immune to the outliers. Field test data was collected to evaluate the proposed algorithm. The comparison results indicate that the proposed algorithm can effectively provide position corrections for standalone INS during the 300 s GPS outage, which outperforms the traditional LS-SVM method. Historical information is also involved to better represent the vehicle dynamics.
Highlights
An inertial navigation system (INS) is a self-contained system with high accuracy over short periods, which has been widely used in military and civil applications, but its performance degrades over time due to the sensors’ errors
In order to achieve a better navigation performance during the global positioning system (GPS) outages, a robust least squares support vector machine (RLS-SVM)-aided INS/GPS integrated system is proposed to overcome the shortcomings of the previous methodologies discussed above, which could depress the effect of the GPS outliers in the training set
The specific force information from the accelerometers, yaw data, and velocity are selected as the inputs of the model, which represents the vehicle dynamics, while the outputs of the model are the increments of the GPS position
