In low-cost low-precision micro-electromechanical system (MEMS)-based INS/GPS integration navigation systems, one of the major concerns is high-level stochastic noise and uncertainties existing in INS sensors and complex model of real noisy data. In such uncertainty-oriented environments, an intelligence structure with extra degrees of freedom which can handle and model a high-level of uncertainties in INS sensors, and an efficient denoising technique as a precursor to the intelligence structure can be efficient solutions. Our approach to these problems is taken in different steps. First, a denoising technique based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is used to provide more accurate INS sensor outputs and better generalization ability. Second, an optimized interval type-2 fuzzy neural network is used to model and handle a high-level of uncertainties efficiently and estimate the positioning error of INS sensors when GPS signals are blocked, and still meet both accuracy maximization and complexity minimization. Fast learning and convergence of the algorithm and less computational complexity can be achieved by using an extended Kalman filter in the learning of algorithm and an accurate and simple type-reduction, respectively, which can be utilized in real-time applications with significant performance. The results of EMD-based denoising technique, as a preprocessing phase, verify superior performance in comparison with the discrete wavelet transform denoising method in the signal-to-noise ratio improvement for raw and noisy signals of INS sensors. To verify the effectiveness of our proposed model, we applied challenging conditions consisting of low-cost low-precision inertial sensors based on MEMS technology, long-term outages of GPS satellites, a high-speed experimental test vehicle and noisy real-world data in the real-time flight experiments. The achieved experimental accuracies are compared with the results that we have achieved in other methods, and our proposed method verifies significant improvements.

Because of problems such as dealing with a low-cost MEMS-based inertial sensors having a high level of uncertainty and imprecision, stochastic noise, a high-speed vehicle, high noisy real data, and long-term GPS signal outage during the real-time flight test, the advantage is taken for some approaches in different steps: (1) utilizing discrete wavelet transform technique to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio in raw and noisy inertial sensor signals and attenuate high-frequency noise as a preprocessing phase to prepare more accurate data for the proposed model and (2) employing adaptive neural subtractive clustering fuzzy inference system (ANSCFIS) which combines and extracts the best feature of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and the subtractive clustering algorithm with fewer rules than the ANFIS method, aiming to improve a more efficient, accurate, and especially a faster method which enhances the prediction accuracy and speeds up the positioning system. The achieved accuracies for the proposed model are discussed and compared with the extended Kalman filter (EKF), ANFIS, and ANSCFIS which are implemented and tested experimentally using a high-speed vehicle in three GPS blockages. The proposed model shows considerable improvements in high-speed navigation using low-cost MEMS-based inertial sensors in case of long-term GPS blockage.

On the adjustment, calibration and orientation of drone photogrammetry and laser-scanning / Emmanuel Clédat (2020)  

Public Titre : On the adjustment, calibration and orientation of drone photogrammetry and laser-scanning Type de document : Thèse/HDR Auteurs : Emmanuel Clédat , Auteur ; Jan Skaloud, Directeur de thèse ; Davide Antonio Cucci, Directeur de thèse Editeur : Lausanne : Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne EPFL Année de publication : 2020 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Photogrammétrie numérique [Termes IGN] centrale inertielle [Termes IGN] compensation par bloc [Termes IGN] données lidar [Termes IGN] données localisées 3D [Termes IGN] étalonnage de chambre métrique [Termes IGN] fusion de données [Termes IGN] GPS-INS [Termes IGN] image captée par drone [Termes IGN] optimisation (mathématiques) [Termes IGN] point d'appui [Termes IGN] vision par ordinateur Résumé : (auteur) Centimetre level precision mapping is essential for many applications such as land-use, infrastructure inspection, cultural heritage preservation, and construction site monitoring. However, the acquisition and its preparation (in particular the setting of a ground control point network (GCPs)) are still expensive or even impossible in cluttered or dangerous areas. The recent development of UAVs together with the miniaturization of the sensors is a promising evolution for reducing costs and expand opportunities. The sensors embedded on the drone: GNSS antenna, IMU, camera and (optional) LIDAR are light and often low-cost. The low quality of their raw measurements must be counterbalanced by their rigorous modeling in order to obtain accurate final results: if we cannot expect the sensors to be error-free, one must model these in order to correct them. This is achieved by in-situ calibration or on a dedicated calibration field, together with a rigorous fusion of the raw data acquired by the different sensors with the so-called bundle-adjustment method. This thesis proposes several models to describe the behavior of the sensors, in order to hybridize them rigorously in the bundle-adjustment. Consistent datasets have been acquired on the field specifically to assess the relevance of both the sensor models and their hybridizing in complex photogrammetric processing. The contribution of this thesis could be divided into two mains categories. On one hand, this thesis suggests tools and recommendation to improve directly the procedures achieved by end-users using current UAV-mapping commercial solutions (in particular for the GCPs placement, for the choice of the camera calibration and model and for the flight-plan). On the other hand, this thesis put forward exotic methods (methods considered as exotic at the time of the writing of the thesis) such as Photo-LIDAR hybridizing and collaborative mapping achieved by a terrestrial-aerial tandem (a terrestrial vehicle holding a LIDAR, GNSS, imaging and inertial sensors followed by a drone conceived to proceed to airborne photogrammetry) or an aerial-aerial tandem (two drones flying in formation to proceed to airborne photogrammetry). The contribution of this thesis will permit to reduce costs, to improve the quality of mapping products and to enlarge the possibilities of mapping: in particular, map cluttered or inaccessible zones which are nowadays considered as difficult or even impossible to map.

Geometric and statistical interpretation of correlation between fault tests in integrated GPS/INS systems / Ali Almagbile in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 13 n° 3 (July 2019)  

Public [article]  inJournal of applied geodesy > vol 13 n° 3 (July 2019) . - pp 267 – 278 Titre : Geometric and statistical interpretation of correlation between fault tests in integrated GPS/INS systems Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Ali Almagbile, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 267 – 278 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] coefficient de corrélation [Termes IGN] détection d'erreur [Termes IGN] données GPS [Termes IGN] erreur de positionnement [Termes IGN] fiabilité des données [Termes IGN] GPS-INS [Termes IGN] incertitude géométrique Résumé : (auteur) Fault detection and identification (FDI) in either a stand-alone GPS or in integrated GPS/INS systems is essential for improving the quality of positioning, navigation, and many other applications. The assumption that the observations include a single fault has been considered intensively in literature. However, this assumption may not necessarily be valid due to the fact that multiple faults may exist simultaneously. In this study, separability of multiple faults in GPS/INS integration systems has been analysed geometrically and statistically. This has been achieved through testing how large correlation coefficient between any pair of fault tests statistics increases the probability of faults misidentification. In addition, a new calculation procedure of correlation coefficient when four faults appear in the observations has been developed. This procedure considers calculation the correlation between a single and a punch of measurements combined together. The results show that there is a strong relationship between the value of correlation coefficient and the probability of misidentification. Furthermore, a significant relationship between the correlation and the fault test values can be found when splitting the measurements combinations into groups based on the combination similarity. Nevertheless, this relationship can be defined without splitting the measurements into groups when using a new correlation procedure for four faults case. The geometric representation shows that large correlation coefficient reflects small angle between the correlation and the x-axis; whereas the angle between the fault-test vectors and the x-axis becomes wider when a tiny correlation exist.

It considers a quadratic constraint which may appear in some problems of integrated direct geo-referencing in particular when INS data is used as system equations of a Kalman filter algorithm. In such a case one encounters with a dynamic errors-in-variables (DEIV) model for system equations, although DEIV model has been already considered for equations of the Kalman filter algorithm and a solution namely integrated total Kalman filter (ITKF) has been given to it. Also this algorithm can be simplified to unconstraint case which is useful for some problems. It considers DEIV model for both observation equations and system equations of the Kalman filter algorithm. The predicted residuals for all variables including the random noise at the first epoch, the observational noise, the random system noise and the corresponding noise of two coefficient matrixes (in the system equations and the observation equations) besides the variance matrix of the unknown parameters are obtained. In two numerical examples, integrated direct geo-referencing problem is solved for a GPS-INS system.
