Adaptive Filtering for Mobile Robot Localization with Unknown Odometry Statistics

Rony Caballero, Diego Rodríguez-Losada, Fernando Matı́a · 2009

One of the most important tasks in mobile robotics is the vehicle self localization from a reference frame system. In this sense, most of the mobile robots fuse odometry sensors with laser range finders or sonar sensors. Nevertheless, the odometry and kinematic model error statistics are usually unknown and time variant. An adaptive extended Kalman filter is proposed for mobile robot localization and the first and second moment of odometry sensors noise estimation.
