The observed quantity of gyroscope acquisition and pipeline climbing robot have independence, and assume t moment pipeline climbing robot Position it is only related with the t-1 moment, introduce naive Bayesian thought and Markov Chain and simplify pipeline climbing robot position and estimate Model is counted, and introduces batch processing method and recurrence is carried out to all previous Bayesian filter calculated result, constructs t moment pipeline crawling machine People position estimation value p (Mt|N1:t-1) and t-1 moment p (Mt-1|N1:t-1) relationship:
p(Mt|N1:t-1)=∫ p (Mt|Mt-1)p(Mt-1|N1:t-1)dMt-1
Pass through the collected t moment observation position N of gyroscopetPipeline climbing robot position estimation value is updated, thus when obtaining t Carve the Posterior distrbutionp p (M of pipeline climbing robot positiont|N1:t):
After the Posterior distrbutionp of t moment pipeline climbing robot position is calculated, as subsequent time t+1 moment pipeline creeper The prior distribution of device people, to complete the batch processing of Bayesian filter algorithm;Enhance relative position using Bayesian filter algorithm The navigation and positioning accuracy of the pipeline climbing robot of navigation feature.
