Nonlinear Filtering for Ultra-Tight GNSS/INS Integration

This paper considers the problem of ultra-tight GNSS/INS integration. We propose a new approach, deriving the direct relation between Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) measurements and synchronization parameters, used in the trilateration algorithm to compute the position of the receiver. We take into account the IMU´s eventual biased behavior by introducing it into the state representation. We use a recently-developed, square-root derivative-free Gaussian nonlinear filter to solve the estimation problem.
