| Abstract: |
In this paper, we propose a novel robust navigational approach to be integrated with the guidance and control systems of an uninhabitedsurface vehicle Springer. A weighted Interval Kalman Filter (wIKF) in used for waypoint tracking, and has been compared with that of one that uses a conventional Kalman Filter (KF) navigational design. The conventional KF fails to predict correctly the vehicle’s heading when there is unmodelled uncertainty of the sensing equipment, and thus would negatively affect the performance of subsequent navigation, guidance and control (NGC). While the proposed method using a wIKF technique enhances robustness with respect to erroneous modelling, and thus secures better accuracy and efficiency in completing a mission. |
