Abstract
Precise Point Positioning/Inertial Navigation System (PPP/INS) integrated navigation based on PPP and low-accuracy INS is often used to provide position and attitude information for vehicle-mounted or airborne mobile mapping systems. With proper processing, the position accuracy of PPP/INS is comparable to that of Differential Global Navigation Satellite System (DGNSS)/INS, but the accuracy of the attitude, especially the yaw angle, cannot be guaranteed. However, the yaw angle is crucial for mobile mapping systems. To compensate for the insufficiency of PPP/INS, we have designed a Multi-Antenna GNSS (MAGNSS)/INS integrated navigation system. First, the attitude determination method using MAGNSS is presented in detail. Then, the MAGNSS attitude is combined with the PPP position and velocity as measurements for integration with the INS. Thus, PPP/INS integrated navigation was improved to MAGNSS/INS integrated navigation. Finally, a three-hour car-borne test was conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results indicate that the attitude determined from MAGNSS is accurate and stable over time. Compared to PPP/INS, MAGNSS/INS integrated navigation can improve the attitude accuracy significantly because of the inclusion of MAGNSS attitude.
