Simulation Software for a Low Cost Electronic Inertial Navigation System
This paper addresses the first step of a design sequence for inertial navigation systems: to design a generic and flexible simulator that will allow the simulation of different systems architecture scenarios. In order to realize fast prototyping systems, to take advantage of modular design and to allow rapid real-time testing, a Simulink Navigation System Simulator (SNSS) has been developed. The SNSS is designed in several modules allowing point-wise improvements or modifications that do not affect the other modules. The aim of this first version of the simulator is to analyse the propagation of round-off errors in an ideal context. Major results have shown no significative effects of the simulator finite arithmetics on the accuracy of the solution. The SNSS will be a precious tool in the design of the innovative algorithm expected to be suitable for the use of MEMS inertial sensors in low cost navigation systems. Upon completion, this software will permit rapid prototyping and easy-to-use design for low cot GPS-aided electronic inertial navigation systems.
