example

filt = insfilter(type) returns an inertial navigation filter based on type.

example

filt = insfilter(Name,Value) returns an inertial navigation filter configured by the name-value pair arguments.

You can specify the type of INS filter to create by specifying name-value pairs as true or false. For example, to create the default NHConstrainedIMUFuser object, specify NonholonomicHeading as true, Magnetometer as false, AsyncIMU as false, and ErrorState as false.

nhFilter = insfilter('NonholonomicHeading',true, ...
                     'Magnetometer',false, ...
                     'AsyncIMU',false, ...
                     'ErrorState',false)

nhFilter = 

  NHConstrainedIMUGPSFuser with properties:

        IMUSampleRate: 100        Hz         
    ReferenceLocation: [0 0 0]    [deg deg m]
     DecimationFactor: 2                     

   Extended Kalman Filter Values
              State: [16x1 double]     
    StateCovariance: [16x16 double]    

   Process Noise Variances
                  GyroscopeNoise: [4.8e-06 4.8e-06 4.8e-06]    (rad/s)²
              AccelerometerNoise: [0.048 0.048 0.048]          (m/s²)² 
              GyroscopeBiasNoise: [4e-14 4e-14 4e-14]          (rad/s)²
        GyroscopeBiasDecayFactor: 0.999                                
          AccelerometerBiasNoise: [4e-14 4e-14 4e-14]          (m/s²)² 
    AccelerometerBiasDecayFactor: 0.9999                               

   Measurement Noise Variances
    ZeroVelocityConstraintNoise: 0.01    (m/s)²

You can also create a filter by specifying the minimum number of nondefault parameters required. By default, AsyncIMU and ErrorState are false, so you do not need to specify them to create an NHConstrainedIMUGPSFuser.

nhFilter = insfilter('NonholonomicHeading',true, ...
                     'Magnetometer',false)

nhFilter = 

  NHConstrainedIMUGPSFuser with properties:

        IMUSampleRate: 100        Hz         
    ReferenceLocation: [0 0 0]    [deg deg m]

You can create a specific INS filter object by specifying a string for the type argument. Create an AsyncMARGGPSFuser by calling the insfilter function with "asyncimu".

filter = insfilter("asyncimu")
filter = 
  AsyncMARGGPSFuser with properties:

    ReferenceLocation: [0 0 0]           [deg deg m]
                State: [28x1 double]

To specify an ErrorStateIMUGPSFuser, call insfilter with "errorstate".

filter = insfilter("errorstate")
filter = 
  ErrorStateIMUGPSFuser with properties:

        IMUSampleRate: 100               Hz
