Description

A fast and high-precision transfer alignment method for composite inertial systems Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a rapid and high-precision transfer alignment method for a composite inertial system, belonging to the technical field of establishing the initial attitude reference of a moving base for a composite inertial navigation system with a rotating mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] The composite inertial system is a new type of inertial system. It is equipped with three high-precision fiber optic gyroscopes, which can directly output the angular rate of the carrier relative to the inertial space. It has a three-axis, two-frame rotation mechanism, which can not only keep the carrier stable relative to the inertial space, but also control the carrier to rotate according to a predetermined rotation control strategy during operation. At the same time, it can use the output of accelerometers and gyroscopes to directly perform strapdown calculations on the carrier.

[0003] After years of development, transfer alignment technology has achieved significant progress in error models, matching methods, observability analysis, lever effects, and flexural deformation, greatly improving the speed and accuracy of transfer alignment. In practical engineering applications, transfer alignment technology is widely used in ships, tactical weapons, and aircraft. However, the sub-inertial navigation systems (INS) studied in these fields are mostly strapdown INS. Due to application background and other reasons, there is limited discussion both domestically and internationally regarding the use of composite inertial systems in sub-INS. Domestic research in transfer alignment technology mainly focuses on airborne and shipborne platforms, often employing a "velocity + attitude" matching scheme to improve alignment speed. During alignment, the carrier needs to perform specific trajectory maneuvers, such as O-shaped, S-shaped, or port and starboard roll maneuvers, to achieve short convergence time and high accuracy.

[0004] Traditional frame-based inertial navigation systems still rely on optical aiming schemes for alignment transfer. This necessitates the installation of complex optical paths on ships and regular calibration, posing significant challenges to user operation and making it difficult to meet the demands of current digital and intelligent development. For dynamic alignment transfer inertial navigation systems using three-axis fiber optic gyroscopes, existing solutions have implemented digital alignment technology based on velocity + position matching. This eliminates the need for specific maneuvers by the carrier during alignment; however, this solution has a long convergence time and does not account for the effects of carrier arm changes and deflection. The requirements of next-generation weapon systems for rapid launch and reduced preparation time place higher demands on the speed and accuracy of alignment transfer, making traditional velocity + position matching alignment solutions insufficient for these new needs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem solved by this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a rapid and high-precision transfer alignment method for a composite inertial system. Under the condition of various disturbances caused by the movement of the base during the carrier's movement, the initial attitude reference of the composite inertial guidance base can be established in a short time, thereby improving the rapid response capability and alignment accuracy of weapon equipment.

[0006] The technical solution of this invention is as follows: A rapid and high-precision transfer alignment method for a composite inertial system, comprising: S1, constructing a transfer alignment test control system using a main inertial navigation system with speed and attitude information output and a composite inertial system; powering on and heating the transfer alignment test control system and initializing its parameters; controlling the rotation mechanism of the composite inertial system to rotate to the zero position to enter the transfer alignment process; S2, calculating the interference angular motion information of the platform based on the gyroscope output signal of the composite inertial system, and then applying a corresponding control torque to the rotation mechanism to isolate the platform from the external interference angular motion of the corresponding axis; S3, applying control commands to the rotation mechanism to control the platform to rotate and stop according to a predetermined rotation path, while simultaneously controlling the carrier to perform a maneuvering sway according to specified angular motion conditions; S4, real-time acquisition of gyroscope, accelerometer, and frame angle data signals of the composite inertial system and the synchronization signal, speed, and attitude signal of the main inertial navigation system, and aligning the measurement data of the composite inertial system with the data of the main inertial navigation system based on the synchronization signal; S5, utilizing the composite inertial system...

The initial attitude reference is established using the coarse alignment result, and it is determined whether the navigation calculation time has been reached. If it has been reached, navigation calculation is performed using inertial measurement data, and the state matrix of the fine alignment Kalman filter is updated in real time; S8. It is determined whether the filtering time has been reached. If it has been reached, the velocity and attitude information of the main inertial navigation system received at the current time are matched with the navigation calculation result of the composite inertial navigation system after dynamic error compensation, the observation and observation matrix of the fine alignment Kalman filter are calculated, the Kalman filter equation is updated, and the state quantity estimate is calculated; S9. It is determined whether the alignment end time has been reached. If not, the velocity error, main inertial navigation system installation error, and deflection angle are estimated by the Kalman filter to perform real-time feedback correction on the composite inertial navigation system; if so, the alignment ends, and the attitude misalignment angle estimated by the Kalman filter is used to compensate and correct the navigation result of the platform to obtain the alignment result of the composite inertial system.

First, the platform is locked to the frame at a 180° position around the outer ring axis. After rotating to the position, the control platform is in an isolation angle motion state and dwells for a period of time. Then, it rotates 180° clockwise around the outer ring axis to the frame at position 0 and dwells for a period of time. At the same time, the carrier is controlled to swing in the horizontal direction.

[0029] In the aforementioned fast and high-precision transfer alignment method for a composite inertial system, step S8 involves using the attitude misalignment angle estimated by a Kalman filter to compensate and correct the stage navigation results, thereby obtaining the transfer alignment results of the composite inertial system. This includes obtaining the stage attitude matrix at the end of the alignment process based on the fine alignment navigation calculation results. The calculation method for the sub-INS attitude misalignment angle compensation matrix based on the precisely aligned Kalman filter estimation value is as follows:

[0030] in, Let x, y, and z represent the estimated values ​​of the sub-inertial navigation attitude misalignment angles, respectively. The calculation method for the transferred alignment result, based on the platform attitude matrix and the misalignment angle compensation matrix, is as follows:
