Advanced state estimation for navigation of automated vehicles


Advanced state estimation for navigation of automated vehicles is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''Annual Reviews in Control''. The main subjects of the publication include inertial navigation system, satellite system, air navigation, constellation, GNSS augmentation, real-time computing, inertial measurement unit, orientation (vector space), navigation system, computer science, position, GNSS applications, particle filter, artificial satellite, field, Global Positioning System, and global navigation satellite system. This contribution gives a short introduction into the field of aided inertial navigation techniques, provides useful hints for implementation, and evaluates their performance in experiments using two different railway vehicles, an autonomous maritime vessel, and an unmanned aerial quadrotor.
