Abstract
A novel algorithm based on singular spectrum analysis (SSA) and augmented nonlinear differentiator (AND) for extracting the useful signal from a noisy measurement of fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) is proposed in this paper. As a novel type of tracking differentiator, augmented nonlinear differentiator (AND) has the advantages of dynamical performance and noise-attenuation ability. However, there is a contradiction in AND, i.e., selecting a larger acceleration factor may cause faster convergence but bad random noise reduction, whereas selecting a smaller acceleration factor may lead to signal delay but effective random noise reduction. To overcome the contradiction of AND, multi-scale transformation is introduced. Firstly, the noisy signal is decomposed into components by SSA, and the correlation coefficients between each component and original signal are calculated, then the component with biggest correlation coefficient is reserved and other components are filtered by AND with designed selection criterion of acceleration factor, finally the de-noising result is obtained after reconstruction process. There are mainly two prominent advantages of the proposed SSA-AND algorithm: (i) Compared to traditional tracking differentiators, better de-noising ability can be achieved without signal delay; and (ii) compared to other widely used hybrid de-noising methods based on multi-scale transformation, a parameter determination method is given based on the correlation coefficient of each decomposed component, which improves the reliability of the proposed algorithm.
Highlights
Fiber optic gyroscopes (FOGs) are rotation sensors
Many other de-noising methods have been reported for FOG in the literature, such as time-frequency peak filtering [16], forward linear predication [17], and hybrid de-noising algorithms [18]
Tracking differentiators have been widely used in signal tracking and differential estimation [19]
Summary
Fiber optic gyroscopes (FOGs) are rotation sensors. By using optic wave information, FOGs can detect the phase shift induced by the so-called Sagnac effect [1]. By using multi-scale transformation methods, the signal can be decomposed from time-domain into frequency-domain, and the high frequency noise can be extracted and eliminated, which are successfully applied for FOG de-noising especially for static signals, but fails in highly dynamic conditions. Optimal estimation method, such as Kalman filter, is another widely used technique for FOG de-noising [11,12]. The idea of combining singular spectrum analysis (SSA) and augmented nonlinear differentiator (AND) for de-noising is firstly proposed, based on which the signal delay caused by AND is eliminated, and the de-noising ability is enhanced effectively.
