Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9849577A2] Augmenting the GPS receiver (30) with some form of Dead Recknoning (DR), such as a gyros (35), fills in the gaps occurring as a result of loss of GPS coverage. The present invention permits reliable and automatic estimation and calibration of the gyro zero rate bias. In particular, three specific methods (FIGs. 2-4) are disclosed whereby one method (FIG. 2) makes use of a "GPS gyro" for detecting vehicle heading change, another (FIG. 3) makes use of a "GPS accelerometer" for detecting stationary periods, and another (FIG. 4) makes use of a Kalman filter model for open loop heading error and is used to extract the contribution of and so estimate the gyro bias.
