Probability of Anomaly Expressions for Random Waveform Registration

Registration by integral-square error correlation of one-dimensional discrete-time waveforms which are treated as random processes with specified autocorrelation functions is considered. An important design parameter for this class of problems is the probability of anomaly (a false dip in the correlation function) because it gives an indication of system immunity to gross registration errors. Explicit expressions for this parameter are not possible, so bounds and appoximations must be derived. Two upper bounds and an approximation for the probability of anomaly are derived here. The use of these expressions is illustrated by an example. The relative utility of these performance indicators is shown for the example by comparison with actual values of the probability of anomaly obtained by computer simulation.     

Low cost inertial/GPS integrated position and orientation systemfor marine applications

This paper describes the Low Cost Position and Orientation System (LCPOS), comprising the integration of a low cost “tactical grade” inertial measurement unit with GPS position, velocity and heading aiding data. LCPOS was designed to be a cost-effective alternative to a high performance costly ship INS (SINS). The demonstrated accuracy of the LCPOS integrated navigation solution is comparable to that of the SINS     

Hard-Limiting an Offset Signal

Expressions are derived for the output autocorrelation function of a hard limiter driven by the sum of signal, noise, and an offset term. Two signal types are considered: a random-phase sinusoid and a stationary, zero-mean Gaussian process. For each signal the offset at the sampling times is modeled first as a constant, and second, as a sequence of binary-valued random variables.     

舰船等速下舰载机捷联惯导粗对准方法研究

舰船等速航行时,由于风浪的影响使得舰船产生大幅摇摆,致使舰载机上的惯导系统测量到的地球自转角速度和重力加速度信息受到严重干扰,无法采用传统的静基座或微幅晃动基座的粗对准方法进行粗对准。针对这一问题,提出了舰船等速航行条件下基于重力加速度信息的粗对准方法,即以惯性坐标系中的地球重力加速度作为参考矢量,利用陀螺和加速度计的输出,计算出初始姿态矩阵的粗略估计值。在典型海况条件下,蒙特卡洛50个样本的仿真结果表明,东向、北向和天向姿态误差角的均值分别为-5.102′、8.915′、-0.174°,一倍标准差分别为:0.0174′、0.084′、1.472°,在此基础上完全可以实现该状态下舰载机惯导系统的精对准。     

Measurement of Distributed Targets with the Random Signal Radar

A model of a distributed target as a collection of independent, Poisson distributed point scatterers or scattering centers in a range-velocity target space is introduced and is characterized by a deterministic function called the ?scatterer density function.? This function is the density of the point scatterers in the range-velocity space and can be estimated in a relatively straightforward manner by any radar having adequate resolution in both range and velocity and no ambiguities in the region occupied by the distributed target. The use of the random signal radar with a correlator receiver is considered here and the statistical properties of the correlator output, when the return signal is from a distributed target, are derived. It is shown that the spectral density is simply related to the scatterer density function. The technique is illustrated by an example in which the target is a tornado modeled as a cylinder with constant angular velocity. The example suggests that is a possible to remotely estimate the radar cross section per unit volume as a function of distance from the center of the tornado.

Optimum Reset of Ship's Inertial Navigation System

Optimum linear filter and control theory is applied to the practical problem of supplementing an inertial navigation system with discrete reference information. The information takes the form of position obtained from Loran C or Decca, for example, and occasional azimuth fixes obtained from star sightings. In particular, optimum use of this information is discussed for the Ship's Inertial Navigation System (SINS) installations intended for missile carrying submarines and warships. A model representative of the SINS dynamics is formulated appropriate for application of optimum filter and control theory. Interpretation of the optimum control dictated in part by the augmented SINS model is discussed. Simulation studies that show the relative transient behavior and the stabilizing effect of the closed-loop filter and control processes are also presented.

旋转式SINS的自标校技术研究

惯性器件常值及慢变误差是影响捷联惯导系统精度的主要因素之一,所以在捷联惯导系统出厂前需要对常值及慢变误差参数进行标定。但这些误差参数会随时间发生变化,对于高精度捷联惯导系统,每次启动后需要对惯性器件的误差参数进行重新标校。针对光纤惯导系统,建立了IMU误差模型,并根据提出的旋转式捷联惯导系统自标校转位方案原则设计出了一种8位置自标校方案,对惯性器件标定参数进行激励和辨识,并建立了Kalman滤波状态方程及量测方程,对惯导系统误差参数进行在线标定。实验结果表明,该方案对其惯性器件误差参数能进行准确估计,具有一定的参考价值。     

基于激光多普勒测速仪的车载捷联惯导系统行进间快速对准方法研究

在载体线运动状态下,单纯依靠捷联惯组自身的测量是无法实现自主对准的,此时传统的粗对准方法误差大甚至不可用。本文设计了一种基于激光多普勒测速仪的行进间快速对准方法,理论分析表明,通过对传统惯性系对准算法中加入速度及加速度修正项完全可以实现载体存在非周期线运动情况下的快速对准。仿真结果表明,在激光多普勒测速仪测速精度在0.5%、输出速度更新频率在20Hz的情况下,输出对准姿态角在150s以内即可收敛到稳态值,横摇角和俯仰角误差在25″以内,航向角误差在0.03°以内,可以满足一定精度范围内的快速对准需求,也可以为后续的精对准过程提供较为准确的初始姿态。     

Mismatched filtering of odd-periodic binary sequences

Binary sequences with perfect periodic autocorrelation functions, as required in communications, radar, and measuring, are not known for any lengths >4. As a possible remedy, mismatched filtering can be used to entirely suppress any sidelobes of the periodic autocorrelation function at the expense of a reduced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In this work, the mismatched filtering method is extended to the odd-periodic autocorrelation function whose technical implementation is no more complex than that of periodic sequences. A new class of odd-periodic binary sequences is constructed that exist for many more lengths and exhibit significantly lower mismatched filtering losses than any known periodic sequences     

State Estimation and Divergence Analysis

A growing memory discrete dynamic model for performing temporal extrapolations along a predetermined path in a random field is presented. This dynamic model is used to drive a linear system that is itself driven by discrete white noise. The coupled system is used to derive a state estimation scheme that recursively processes noisy measurements of the system. In addition, using the aforementioned dynamic model as a reference (truth) model, the authors develop a covariance analysis to measure the estimation errors that occur when the dynamics along the path through the field are modeled as a Markov linear model and state estimation is performed using discrete Kalman filtering. The performance evaluation of an inertial navigation system influenced by the Earth's gravity field aboard a maneuvering ship is provided as a specific illustrative example.

Image Correlation with Geometric Distortion Part 1: Acquisition Performance

The degradation in acquisition probability that occurs when cross correlation is used to determine the offset of two images of the same scene that differ by a relative geometric distortion is presented. The geometric distortions considered can be represented by a general affine transformation of image coordinates. The analysis shows that for a given geometric distortion there is an image size and shape that minimizes the probability of false acquisition. The results are derived for images modeled as random patterns with arbitrary auto-correlation functions. The results are illustrated for images with Gaussian autocorrelation functions.
