Abstract
Strap-down inertial navigation system (SINS) and celestial navigation system (CNS) integrated navigation have been widely applied in ships, aircraft and spacecraft etc. However, in practice, its performance is highly depending on the horizon reference accuracy, which is usually difficult to guarantee. In this work, we propose a SINS/CNS integrated navigation scheme based on a novel mathematical horizon reference (MHR) determination method. More specifically, inertial coordinate system is used in constructing the MHR, where the attitude and position errors could be decoupled and compensated, respectively. Then, a more accurate MHR could be established, thus resulting in better navigation results. Comparative numerical simulations for a maneuvering flight have been conducted, and it is shown the proposed approach has the best converging speed as well as the highest navigation precision compared with SINS and existing MHR-based SINS/CNS schemes, and all-state optimal estimation could be achieved, thus enabling fully autonomous and high-precision navigation.
