English Abstract

Global Positioning System (GPS) and Strapdown Inertial Navigation System (SDINS) can be integrated together to provide a reliable navigation system.

GPS provides position information and possibly velocity when there is direct line of sight to four or more satellites; and SDINS utilizes the local measurements of angular velocity and linear acceleration to determine both the vehicle’s position and velocity.

Thus integration leads to reliable navigation solution by overcoming each of their respective shortcomings.

Integration of GPS and SDINS are expected to become more widespread as a result of low cost inertial sensors.

This work offers a new method for error estimation in a GPS/INS augmented system based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Wavelet Transform (WT).

The wavelet analysis was beneficial in filtering out the noise components and disturbances that may exist at the INS and GPS outputs.

In addition, it provides the advantage of comparing the INS and GPS position and velocity components at different levels of resolution.

This work describes the results obtained by implementing a conceptual intelligent navigator for reducing the GPS/INS errors, for several types of GPS and INS errors.

An ANN was adopted in this work to model the GPS/INS position and velocity errors in real time to predict the error in the integrated system and provide accurate navigation information of the moving vehicle.

Several testing data types were processed in this work, when the simulation results based on MatLab7 programming language was used.

it was found that the proposed technique reduces the standard deviation error in the position by about 91% for X, Y, and Z axes, while in velocity it was reduced by about 94% for North, East, and Down directions.

Also, in this work the problems of the difference between INS and GPS data rate as well as the blockage problem in GPS were solved by using three different methods which are Newton, Spline, and Artificial Neural Network.

Simulation results show that the proposed neural network give more accurate results than the Newton and Spline methods.

In spite of the problem associated with the neural network method.
