Robust Tightly Coupled GNSS/INS Estimation for Navigation in Challenging Scenarios

Jan Skaloud, Omar Garcia Crespillo, Michael Meurer

The combination of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and Inertial Navigation System (INS) has become the baseline of many transportation applications. In this work, we design a tightly-coupled integration between GNSS and INS where we modify the u ...
