Patent EP-1139061-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TAZARTES DANIEL A
IPC: G01C21/16
Filed: 2000-12-29
Abstract: A system and method for improving the accuracy of altitude determinations
in an inertial navigation system. Pressure measurements available to the inertial
navigation system are used to initially calculate an estimated pressure altitude
using the standard day model for the atmosphere. Temperature measurements are
further utilized in the physical relationship between temperature, pressure, and
altitude to compute a second estimated altitude, such as a Blanchard altitude
estimation. A change between subsequent second altitude estimations is computed
and compared with a respective change in the computed pressure altitude in order
to generate a correction signal. The error correction signal is then used to modify
the computed pressure altitude to generate a more accurate determination of the
absolute altitude of the inertial navigation system. The error correction signal is
calculated to account for changes in atmospheric conditions which may be
encountered by an aircraft and to further reduce the effects of erroneous
temperature and pressure measurements in subsequent altitude determinations.
Thus, the system and method of the present invention provides an absolute altitude
determination having improved stability and improved accuracy over prior
systems.
