Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the hourly error of the inertia sensor of an inertial navigation system so as to improve the accuracy of the sensor by correcting first navigation data which contains errors generated by the inertia sensor by using second navigation data from a GPS navigation system. CONSTITUTION:First navigation data 1a from an inertial navigation system 1 and second navigation data 3a from a GPS navigation system 3 are inputted to a comparing means 2 and the means 2 compares the data 1a and 3a with each other and inputs the difference between the two data to a state estimation filter 4 as an error 2a. The filter 4 calculates the estimated errors of an inertia and GPS sensors and feeds back the calculated errors to the systems 1 and 3 as estimated sensor errors 4a and 4b. When these operations are repeated, the accuracy of the navigation data la and 3a can be improved.
