MEMS gyroscopes are gaining popularity because of their low manufacturing costs in large
quantities. For navigation system engineering, this presents a challenge because of strong …

This paper presents a novel calibration method for tri-axial field sensors, such as
magnetometers and accelerometers, in strap-down navigation systems. Strap-down tri-axial …

MEMS chips have become ideal candidates for various applications since they are small
sized, light weight, have low power consumption and are extremely low cost and reliable …

The nine degrees-of-freedom (DOF) inertial measurement units (IMU) are generally
composed of three kinds of sensor: accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer. The …

This paper presents a thermal calibration approach for the accelerometer triad without any
temperature-controlled incubator. This approach is implemented by the sequential …

This paper presents an improved iterative nonlinear calibration method in the gravitational
field for both low-grade and high-grade triaxial accelerometers. This calibration method …

Inertial sensor static calibration under changing temperature is proposed and analyzed. Due
to relatively short test duration and non-stationary effects, a modification of the Allan …

This thesis focuses on the deterministic and stochastic modeling and model parameter
estimation of two commonly employed inertial measurement units. Each unit comprises a tri …

The input-output relationship of an accelerometer depends on parameters that are sensitive
to temperature and air humidity. High accuracy field measurements therefore require simple …

This paper presents a novel experimental design for greatly improving the calibration
accuracy of the acceleration-insensitive and the acceleration-sensitive biases of the …
