METHODS FOR ATTITUDE AND HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM TO MITIGATE VEHICLE ACCELERATION EFFECTS

摘要

An attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) for a vehicle is provided along with methods for mitigating vehicle acceleration effects in the AHRS. The AHRS comprises an inertial measurement unit configured to generate inertial measurements from at least one accelerometer and at least one gyroscope, a heading source configured to generate heading measurements, and an adaptive statistical filter configured to mitigate the impact of vehicle acceleration effects on attitude and heading.
