IMPROVED VEHICLE PARAMETER ESTIMATION USING SENSOR FUSION BY KALMAN FILTERING

Erik Steinmetz, Ragne Emardson, Per Jarlemark
Abstract:
Within several applications concerning the improvement of vehicle safety, accurate systems for determination of position, velocity and acceleration are useful. We present a system for accurate determination of these parameters using a sensor fusion technique. The main focus is on how GPS carrier phase data and accelerometer data are modeled and integrated in a Kalman filter that provides both estimates and accompanying uncertainties.
