Estimation of AUV dynamics for sensor fusion
Kjell Magne Fauske, Fredrik Gustafsson, Øyvind Hegrenæs · 2007
This paper presents a method for identifying dynamic models of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV) from logged data and a physically motivated model structure. Such models are instrumental for model-based control system design, but also for integrated navigation systems. We motive our work from the perspective of developing second generation integrated navigation systems, which use a sensor fusion approach to merge external information with a dynamic model for purposes of redundancy, integrity, and for fault detection and isolation.
