Inertial Positioning and Azimuth-Determining System for Land Vehicles

Zhuang Liangjie, Zhang Zongrun, Chen Chaoying

Abstract:	Abstract This paper presents an overview of the design and a discussion of the test results for an Inertial Positioning and Azimuth-Determining System (IPADS) using middle-accuracy IMUs. Based on the features of the system designing in hardware and the special environment for land vehicles. Some important algorithms, such as initial alignment and ZUPT (Zero- Velocity-Update), are designed by using the Kalman filtering technology. Certain programs to further improve the system’s performance are investigated according to the static and dynamic test results.
