Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a calibration method for a vehicle-mounted laser inertial system to be inspected, and in particular to an automated calibration method, system and storage medium for a vehicle-mounted laser inertial system. Background Art

[0002] To meet training and maintenance needs throughout its lifecycle, the laser inertial unit (LIU) undergoes a calibration cycle two years after installation. Upon completion, the unit must be removed from the vehicle for calibration, compensation, and accuracy testing. This process involves numerous modules, is complex, and places high demands on precision, requiring stringent operator control. Currently, manual testing of the LIS is a complex process for testers, requiring the coordination of multiple personnel. This requires significant initial training and training for specialized testers on how to operate and control the turntable, power control device, and basic knowledge of the LIS. This results in significant labor and material costs, as well as a lengthy calibration and testing cycle. Furthermore, current calibration, compensation, and accuracy testing cannot be performed until the LIS returns to the factory, further extending the calibration and testing cycle. Furthermore, manual operation can easily lead to operational errors, invalidating test data. Summary of the Invention

By adopting the method of the present invention, the vehicle-mounted laser inertial group to be tested can quickly realize the automated calibration, compensation and precision testing of the inertial group in the calibration room of the shooting range after it is unloaded from the vehicle, and can be loaded onto the vehicle after passing the precision test. The entire test process only requires one tester to operate in strict accordance with the user manual, which greatly improves the calibration accuracy and efficiency of the entire system, shortens the calibration test and loading time, reduces the calibration test cost, reduces the risk of human operation errors, and meets the requirements of rapid calibration.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is to provide an automated calibration method for a vehicle-mounted laser inertial system, which is special in that it includes the following steps:

[0067] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the following detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention is given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary persons in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0068] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0069] Secondly, the term "embodiment" as used herein refers to specific features, structures, or characteristics that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrases "in other embodiments" that appear in various places throughout this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor do they refer to separate or selective embodiments that are mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0070] Before installing the inertial group, it is necessary to determine the installation position and related requirements of the turntable in the range calibration room:

[0071] a) When installing the turntable, it is required to be installed on a vibration-isolating foundation; the installation orientation must also be fixed. After the pitch and azimuth axes are zeroed, the turntable's support block is on the north side and the connector is on the east side. That is, the axis end mirror of the outer frame axis is required to point to the east, and the installation angle must be within 1.5 degrees.

[0072] b) When aiming, the north datum error must be no greater than 5", and the north datum must be calibrated regularly in accordance with relevant requirements. The north datum must be installed on a vibration-isolating foundation. Prisms that do not meet the requirements or are out of calibration cannot be used. The height of the north datum must be as consistent as possible with the height of the prism of the inertial group (approximately 1.5m, the specific height is based on actual measurement after the turntable is installed). When aiming with a theodolite, the theodolite must use the flat aiming method when aiming at the prism.

[0073] c) Turntable position accuracy requirements: The position accuracy of the turntable's pitch and azimuth axes must be better than 0.0005° under load, and the load-bearing capacity must be no less than 80kg. The position accuracy of the turntable must not be affected by long-term load bearing. The position accuracy must be inspected annually.

[0074] d) Turntable horizontal accuracy requirements: When no load (inertial group) is applied, after the turntable is powered on and returns to zero, two high-precision levels (with a resolution of at least 0.2") are placed vertically on the turntable surface. The turntable is controlled to rotate the azimuth axis 360°. The shims on the turntable base are adjusted. The horizontal accuracy must reach 2" for one full rotation. This item requires annual inspection.

[0075] e) Regarding the reference direction of theodolite and prism: The output of theodolite should be the optical aiming angle value of the angle between the inner normal of the prism and the north direction, with the value of north-north being positive. The prism reference should be the optical aiming angle value of the angle between the inner normal of the reference prism and the north direction, with the value of north-north being positive.

[0076] f) All power cables and communication serial port cables must be reliably connected to ensure there are no connection faults. Annual inspection is required. Pitch axis trim is required.

[0077] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment implements the automated calibration of the vehicle-mounted laser inertial system through the following process:

[0078] Step 1: Install the laser inertial group on the vehicle to be inspected;

[0079] Remove the onboard laser inertial unit (IMU) from the vehicle to be inspected, along with the upper base plate. Secure it to the turntable according to the specified installation method. Connect the cables as required. Power on the turntable, industrial computer, and onboard IMU to be inspected, in sequence. Level the turntable and loosen the pitch axis locking pins on the turntable body.

[0080] Step 2: Communication detection;

[0081] like Figure 2 As shown, the power supply serial port of the on-board laser inertial group to be inspected, the turntable communication serial port, the test serial port of the on-board laser inertial group to be inspected and the client serial port of the on-board laser inertial group to be inspected are checked in turn to see if they are connected normally and the communication is normal.

[0082] Step 3: Calibration;

[0083] When the inertia group preheating time is up, click the "Calibrate" button on the industrial computer to automatically perform calibration according to the following process:

[0084] a) After receiving the self-calibration command, first memorize the local latitude and gravity acceleration;

[0085] b) Then control the inner and outer frames of the turntable to unlock, so that the vehicle-mounted laser inertial group to be inspected can be flipped in sequence according to the preset 19 calibration positions;

[0086] The preset nineteen calibration positions are as follows:

[0087] Position number External frame angle (°)(Z) Inner frame angle (°)(X) Rotate 90° 0 0 0 Around -Z axis 1 270 0 Around +Z axis 2 0 0 Around +Z axis 3 90 0 Around +Z axis 4 180 0 Around -Z axis 5 90 0 Around -Z axis 6 0 0 Around -Z axis 7 270 0 Around +X axis 8 270 90 Around +Z axis 9 0 90 Around +Z axis 10 90 90 Around +Z axis 11 180 90 Around -Z axis 12 90 90 Around -Z axis 13 0 90 Around -Z axis 14 270 90 Around +X axis 15 270 180 Around +X axis 16 270 270 Around -X axis 17 270 180 Around -X axis 18 270 90 Around -X axis 19 270 0 Around +Z axis 0 0 0 Initial position

[0088] c) After the first position is placed, wait for no less than 10 seconds before starting data collection; the sampling time for each position is 330 seconds. When the sampling time for each position reaches 300 seconds, start flipping to the next position. This dynamic flipping process is completed within 30 seconds. Repeat this process until all 19 positions are flipped. The pulse signals of each channel of the inertial group are collected and counted to generate calibration test data E 1X 、E 1Y 、E 1Z 、E 0X 、E 0Y 、E 0Z 、E XY 、E YX 、E ZY 、E YZ 、E XZ 、E ZX , K 1X , K 1Y , K 1Z , K 0X , K 0Y , K 0Z , K XY , K YX , K ZY , K YZ , K XZ , K ZX . E 0X 、E 0Y 、E 0Z is the gyro zero position, E 1X 、E 1Y 、E 1Z is the gyro calibration factor, E XY 、E YX 、E ZY 、E YZ 、E XZ 、E ZX K is the gyro installation error. 0X , K 0Y , K 0Z is the accelerometer zero position, K 1X , K 1Y , K 1Z is the accelerometer calibration factor, K XY , K YX , K ZY , K YZ , K XZ , K ZX To improve the calibration accuracy, repeat this step three times to obtain three sets of calibration test data.

[0089] d) Control the inner and outer frames of the turntable to return to zero.

[0090] Step 4: Calculate the parameters and write the calculation results into the laser inertial group of the vehicle to be tested;

[0091] like Figure 3 , click the "Parameter Calculation" button, the software will automatically calculate the three calibration test data in sequence according to the software requirements and average the three test results, and finally save the averaged data.

[0092] After the parameter calculation is completed, the parameter burning box will automatically pop up. Click the "Parameter Burn" button. The software will automatically package the saved calibration test data in a certain format, communicate with the on-board laser inertial group to be tested through the asynchronous serial bus, and burn the packaged calibration test data into the on-board laser inertial group to be tested.

[0093] Step 5: Compensation test;

[0094] like Figure 4 As shown, click the "Compensation Test" button, and the software automatically controls the inertial group to perform two eight-azimuth north search on the turntable, sending five initial alignment commands to the inertial group in each azimuth. Finally, the heading 3RMS value is calculated based on the local true north value, and the test result is compensated in the calibration test data to generate the final calibration data. The details are as follows:

[0095] Step 5.1: Control the vehicle-mounted laser inertial group to be inspected to perform eight-azimuth north-seeking twice on the turntable to obtain north-seeking values ​​at 16 positions. In other embodiments, eight-azimuth north-seeking can be performed a set number of times according to actual needs, such as three or four times.

[0096] The second eight-direction north search positions are as follows:

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] Step 5.2: Based on the true north values ​​of the 16 positions and the north-seeking values ​​of the 16 positions, obtain the eight-azimuth north-seeking errors twice, and then determine the heading effect deviation value;

[0100] The second eight-azimuth north-finding error is calculated according to the following formula:

[0101] Δ i =γ i -θ i

[0102] Among them, i=0,1,...15, θ iis the true north value of the 16 positions in step 5.1, where θ0=θ, θ1=θ+45, θ2=θ+90, θ3=θ+135, θ4=θ+180, θ5=θ+225, θ6=θ+270, θ7=θ+315, θ8=θ, θ9=θ+45, θ 10 =θ+90,θ3=θ+135,θ 12 =θ+180,θ 13 =θ+225,θ 14 =θ+270,θ 15 =θ+315;γ i is the north-seeking value of the ith position among the 16 positions obtained in step 5.1.

[0103] The heading effect deviation value Δ is calculated according to the following formula:

[0104] Δ=3600*∑Δ i / 16.

[0105] Step 5.3, write the heading effect deviation value into the internal parameter file of the vehicle-mounted laser inertial group to be tested; the specific method is: through the vehicle-mounted laser inertial group raw data communication test port, use the program parameter fixing software to read the parameter file inside the vehicle-mounted laser inertial group, and then set the parameter "delta" in the 10th row and 4th column to -Δ (unit: ") (the value of delta is -Δ) according to the format of Table 3, convert the changed parameter file into the "*.bin" format using the fixing software, and burn the "*.bin" format file into the navigation computer circuit through the program parameter fixing software.

[0107]

[0108]

[0109] Step 5.4: Calculate the heading 3RMS value based on the heading effect deviation value, combined with the attitude angle test value and true value of the laser inertial group of the vehicle to be tested at the i-th position, and compensate the heading 3RMS value in the calibration test data to generate the final calibration data;

[0110]

[0111] Among them, k is the attitude angle of the laser inertial group on the vehicle to be inspected, which are the heading angle Ф, the pitch angle β, and the roll angle ψ, respectively. ki is the error between the test value and the true value of the attitude angle (heading angle Φ, pitch angle β, roll angle ψ) of the vehicle-mounted laser inertial system to be inspected at the i-th position;
