北斗广域差分分米级定位的分区切换算法

从2017年1月开始,北斗系统在播发基本导航电文的同时,提供了包含实时轨道改正数、钟差改正数、电离层格网改正数和分区综合改正数四重广域差分参数,使得系统具备了基于系统广播的电文参数实现广域单站实时动态分米级定位的能力。实际应用表明,北斗系统播发的分区综合改正数存在中断的情况,使得实时定位存在因重新收敛而造成跳变的情况。本文分析了分区中断期间定位跳变产生的原因,提出一种适用于分区切换的广域差分分米级定位算法。采用中国境内7个北斗测站10d的静态数据和车载动态数据对新算法进行评估验证。结果表明,在分区改正数中断的情况下,分区切换算法得到的坐标误差与使用连续分区综合改正数结果一致,双频动态定位水平和高程方向分别小于0.3m和0.5m,平均三维定位精度优于0.5m;车载实时动态定位测试中,分区切换前后的单双频定位精度不受切换影响,与切换前保持一致。分区切换算法有效保证了分区改正数中断后北斗广域分米级实时动态定位的连续性。

为了解决深海拖曳系统定位异常、不连续以及误差积累的问题,提出了一种联合惯性导航系统(INS)和超短基线定位系统(USBL)的组合定位方法,利用在航声线跟踪实现USBL的高精度定位,顾及INS和USBL系统的互补性,并结合Kalman滤波构建了INS+USBL的组合定位模型。将该组合定位模型应用于"向阳红01"船深海拖曳系统在南海的定位实验并与USBL的定位结果比对,实验表明,组合定位方法有效地解决了深拖系统定位异常且不连续问题。INS+USBL组合定位方法可以满足深海拖曳系统的稳健可靠定位,对于深远海定位具有重要意义。     

一种基于超短基线定位的便携式AUV回坞导航方法

自主水下机器人(AUV)对接技术是目前水下机器人的研究热点,精确可靠的AUV的回坞导航是实现对接的关键技术。对于追求轻便的便携式AUV的对接系统,考虑到便携式AUV的搭载能力有限又需要足够的定位精度用于对接,提出了一种基于超短基线(USBL)定位的回坞导航方法,该方法让AUV只需装载电子罗盘和水声应答器就能完成精确的回坞定位。根据导航方法的特点,设计了一种改进的扩展卡尔曼滤波算法,其优点是能在处理滞后的USBL数据的同时动态估算海流、更新状态方程以消除海流造成的定位误差。通过湖试和大量仿真实验,验证了定位算法在海流影响下的定位性能。     

基于北斗定位导航系统的水下监测平台出水报警定位信标机设计与实现

Smoothed A* algorithm for practical unmanned surface vehicle path planning

An effective path planning or route planning algorithm is essential for guiding unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) between way points or along a trajectory. The A* algorithm is one of the most efficient algorithms for calculating a safe route with the shortest distance cost. However, the route generated by the conventional A* algorithm is constrained by the resolution of the map and it may not be compatible with the non-holonomic constraint of the USV. In this paper an improved A* algorithm has been proposed and applied to the Springer USV. A new path smoothing process with three path smoothers has been developed to improve the performance of the generated route, reducing unnecessary ‘jags’, having no redundant waypoints and offering a more continuous route. Both simulation and experimental results show that the smoothed A* algorithm outperforms the conventional algorithm in both sparse and cluttered environments that have been uniformly rasterised. It has been demonstrated that the proposed improved A* route planning algorithm can be applied to the Springer USV providing promising results when tracking trajectories.     

Optimal ice routing of a ship with icebreaker assistance

Offshore development and growing prospects of commercial shipping in the Arctic pose the challenge of optimal ship routing in ice. Route selection in spatially distributed ice conditions significantly affects the voyage time and determines the efficiency of shipping. Most of the applied methods of ice routing solve the problem of a single vessel route selection without considering icebreaker support. At the same time, the real practice of ice navigation is closely connected with icebreaker assistance. It allows reducing the voyage time and fuel consumption, while having additional costs for icebreaker services. Such opposite trends set an optimization task that has not been studied in detail before. In this article, we presented the formulation of a Single Vessel and Icebreaker Assisted Ice Routing optimization problem in non-stationary ice conditions. We considered the icebreaker assistance as an integral part of the overall route optimization problem, and used the economic criterion to optimize both ship route and amount of icebreaker involvement. The article contains the adapted mathematical formulations of classical graph-based and wave-based routing problems in order to consider icebreaker assistance. To prove the practical applicability of these formulations, we developed special subject-oriented research software and implemented there both graph-based (Dijkstra, A*) and the wave-based ice routing methods. Using this developments, we conducted several case studies and made the analysis of strengthens and weaknesses of the alternative routing methods in case of ice operation. The results of the study may serve an additional step to the practical implementation of ice routing technologies and planning of icebreaker resources.

姿态卡尔曼滤波对FAST馈源舱 BDS/SINS组合导航位姿精度的提高

500 m球面射电望远镜(The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, FAST)馈源舱位置和姿态测量精度直接影响望远镜接收机的对准精度.为了提高馈源舱位姿精度,提出姿态卡尔曼滤波算法,采用北斗导航系统的多天线技术解算馈源舱姿态,将它与捷联惯导解算的馈源舱姿态对比,两者的差值作为姿态卡尔曼滤波的量测量.为了降低北斗导航系统解算姿态的复杂度,采用了罗德里格矩阵解算方法.以望远镜跟踪观测模式时,北斗导航系统和捷联惯导解算的实际导航结果作为测试数据,测试结果表明采用姿态卡尔曼滤波的组合导航结果精度优于传统卡尔曼滤波的组合导航结果,尤其在航向角和yf轴的位置精度上.
