Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. The cost is high, and a dedicated magnetic compass calibration site is required, such as a compass field and a thin-height target reference object, which is 1 kilometer away from the compass field. In the absence of a magnetic compass calibration site, such as after the aircraft is transferred or the field is tested When magnetic heading calibration is required, it cannot be performed
[0005] 2. It is greatly affected by the weather. In the case of rain, fog and haze, and low visibility, the existing magnetic heading calibration method cannot be carried out
[0006] 3. The safety risk is high. When the magnetic heading is calibrated in all directions, the operator is required to lie on the back of the aircraft and observe the thin and tall target through the azimuth when the aircraft is in a circular motion. The operator on the back of the aircraft has a greater safety risk.
However, this patent document embeds the compass automatic calibration system in the mainframe of the strapdown attitude computer. When the aircraft engine is working, the electronic compass field is first modeled for one circle of circular motion, and then calibrated for the second circle of circular motion. , the acquisition and calibration are carried out at fixed (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 215°, 270°, 315°, 360°) 8-point azimuths, and its defects are: The dynamic taxiing work needs to be completed by the pilot when the engine is working, and the operation is difficult; the engine work consumes fuel, which not only increases the cost but also wastes the service life of the engine, and there is also a safety risk; because the method of establishing an electronic compass field is that the aircraft must be marked Good 0° is the starting point, turn left and return to the starting point after 360° circular motion, but when the end point is not at the starting point, the establishment of the electronic compass field is invalid and needs to be re-established, so this method is difficult to operate; the magnetic heading of the emergency magnetic compass cannot be calibrated
