Development of Low-Cost Sensors based Multi-sensors Integration Positioning Algorithm for Land Vehicle Tracking and Monitoring Device

Abstract

The GNSS positioning technique are widely applied for land vehicle applications. However, the GNSS positioning technique is unable to ensure the continuity and the reliability in all land vehicle-driving environment. Therefore, to improve the accuracy of GNSS positioning technique, it is necessary to integrate additional sensors. In this study, we developed low-cost MEMS based IMU, magnetometers, and a single-frequency GNSS-RTK based positioning algorithm for the commercialization of land vehicle tracking and monitoring device. In addition, the performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated using the data from real test-driving. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
