Efficiency of MEMS Inertial Sensors Used in Low-dynamics Application
1 Bundeswehr University of Munich, Munich, Germany
ABSTRACT: The analysis presents the performance of navigation application driven with MEMS and FOG inertial sensors. The inertial sensors were working under conditions simulating a potential robotic mission, which reduce accuracy of some of the navigation applications. Empirical results of the test confirm degradation of the navigation system performance in the presented demanding mission. Influence of the testing conditions and of the inertial sensor technology is presented and discussed in the paper.
