A Rapid Initial Alignment Alogrithm Based on Strapdown Gyrocompass

Article Preview

Abstract:

The basic principles for stabilized gyrocompass initial alignment are analyzed in platform inertial navigation system (PINS), then similar principles and initial alignment algorithms suitable for programming are proposed for strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS). The scheme of SINS gyrocompass initial alignment can be divided into four steps, including leveling alignment with header uncertainty, coarse header alignment, leveling realignment and gyrocompass alignment for header. By simplifying SINS nonlinear error model under header uncertainty, the formula of coarse header alignment is deduced. On the assumption of navigation computer having large memory and powerful computing ability, and basing on the ‘multiformity’ of SINS mathematical platform and the ability to attitude reverse control, a specific progress for SINS rapid gyrocompass alignment is introduced and designed in detail. Finally, some tests prove that the proposed alignment algorithm in this paper is effective.
