Abstract :
Currently there are quite works investigate the inertial measurement unit (IMU) and the Global Position System (GPS) fusion. The majority are implemented on personal computers, due to the high computational cost. However, nowadays there are system on chip (SOC) platforms with a lot of resources capable of the integration with GPS/IMS, providing a high performance, variety of peripherals, ease communication with different devices and possibility to add more modules into the development prototyped, also this kinds of platform can be the primary step of an ASIC. The propose in the current project is to integrated inertial navigation system (INS) based on SOC platform, insuring a good precision in the velocity and position information, and high performance and rapid response ability for the navigation system.
