Overview • Introduction • Ubiquitous Navigation • Inertial Navigation • Initialisation & Drift Correction for Inertial Navigation
Positioning Technologies PPP GPS SBAS (GPS) Remote Rural Suburban Urban Indoor LAD GPS RTK GPS GPS Cell Phone Network / DAB / DVB SA GPS AGPS Infrastructure RFID WLAN HS GPS UWB Bluetooth 0.1 1 5 10 50 100 10k Accuracy (m)
Inertial Navigation System (INS) • Stand alone • No infrastructure needed • “Cheap” • $10 – $100k • Sensors exist and are widely available
INS - Problems • Initialisation • Position • Orientation • Sensor Biases • Error Propagation • Initialisation Biases • Sensor Biases / Noise
INS - Augmentation • Velocity Aiding • Eg. ZUPTs • Constrains drift in INS position estimate & allows IMU sensor biases to be estimated • ZUPTs allow low cost IMUs to be used for high accuracy navigation
Pedestrian INS • Foot Mounted IMU • ZUPT every ~0.4 second • Lasts around half of a step
Pedestrian INS Final Position Error (~75m) Heading Error in Shop
GPS Integration - RTK • Problems Remain • Initialisation • Position Drift Correction
Inertial Navigation - Initialisation A position can be refined interactively by using using a phone’s location capabilities (GPS, Wi-Fi, compass, etc), allowing the user to describe their position to a higher level of precision.
Inertial Navigation - Initialisation A structured data representation of the area, allows meaningful landmarks or features to be identified and a dialog to be generated to interactively refine the user’s precise location.
Inertial Navigation - Initialisation Additional detailed sources can be iteratively added as the location becomes more precise. For instance the dialog may determine that the user is indoors and supplement the data with floor plans.
Future Work • Further Development & Testing of ‘Tight’ GPS Integration • Android Implementation of Inertial / CHAIN solution • Map / Local Area Model Aiding
