Augmented Instrumental Variable Method for Position and Heading Estimation with RDOA Measurements

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In this paper, we proposed a position and heading estimation algorithm using only range difference of arrival (RDOA) measurements. Based on RDOA measurements, an uncertain linear measurement model is derived and both position and heading are estimated with the instrumental variable (IV) method which can show unbiased estimation results for the uncertainty of the model. In addition, to remove the unknown bias included in the measurement model error, we augment the bias to the state vector of the model. Since the proposition inherits the characteristic of the IV method, it does not need the stochastic information of the RDOA measurement excepting the assumption that the RDOA meas-urement noise is zero mean and white, and the zero mean error performance can be guaranteed when variances of RDOA measurement noises are identical. Through simulations, the performance of the proposed algorithm is verified at various positions and headings in the sensor network and compared with the robust least squares method which shows a zero mean error performance under the assump-tion that the stochastic information is known exactly.
