Product
Summary:
The coremicro Robust Kalman Filter is a product derived
from the AGNC product line of the AGNC-coremicro-UNCU Universal
Navigation and Control Unit™. It is designed to provide outstanding
performance for estimation and filtering of data sets and associated
variables. The UNCU technology provides a fast, high development
level computing platform with flexible interface for the coremicro
Robust Kalman Filter. A typical RKF application system comprises
a set of sensor or database derived input data, an RKF unit, and
host computer/application facilities, as shown in the following
figure. The data are sent to the RKF. The processed data are sent
to the host computer/application facilities through a USB (Universal
Serial Bus). The host computer communicates with the RKF through
a bi-directional USB link. The USB link in the RKF is configured
as a USB peripheral controller. The RKF can be used, for example,
to provide state estimates related to the particular application
or to accurately estimate variables, such as, position and velocity
for trajectory reconstruction. It finds wide applications in many
fields, such as:
• Object tracking and pointing.
• Vehicle/spacecraft guidance, navigation and control.
• Formation flying Control.
• The RKF is ideal for data filtering or pre-filtering applications.
• Machine vision.
• Autonomous vehicle/UAV.
You can also purchase the
software module only
without the hardware unit.
Advanced Features of the RKF Core:
• Generic hybrid formulation ---a nonlinear continuous-time
system model with nonlinear discrete-time measurements sampled at
adaptively spanned intervals.
• Factorized implementation.
• Custom model input interface.
• No system discretization is involved. Integration for the
time update.
• Measurements are not necessarily taken at equally spaced
sample times.
• When no measurement is available, only the time update is
performed to produce an optimal prediction. Adaptive stepsize.
Functions:
• Linear and Nonlinear state models.
• Linear and Nonlinear measurement models
• Customer specific algorithms.
RKF-Host Data Link Features:
• High speed data transmission (up to 8Mbps).
• Bi-directional communication.
• User friendly.
• Plug-and-Play interface.
User Interface Functions:
• Selection of algorithm.
• Reconfiguration of algorithm parameters.
• GUI interface.
• Interactive command.
• Graphical results and analysis presentation.
