Closed-loop vs. Open-loop Kalman Filter Architectures in Airborne Aided Inertial Navigation
Antonia Hager, Torleiv H. Bryne
Closed-loop (or feedback) error-state Kalman filters with their relatives and offspring are the state-of-the-art in modern aided inertial navigation research. Estimated inertial navigation system (INS) errors are continually fed back to the INS to correct the nominal system state…
