Abstract :
MEMS technology has drastically improving sensor size, weight, cost and power consumption for high accuracy, high reliability and high stability as a navigation option to low cost systems. The MEMS fabricated INS can be complementary with GPS to enhance the augmentation performance to an acceptable reliability. This paper focuses on implementation of a GPS/INS integrated system including calibration and verification on sensor components and overall operation.
