Height Compensation Using Ground Inclination Estimation in Inertial Sensor-Based Pedestrian Navigation

In an inertial sensor-based pedestrian navigation system, the position is estimated by double integrating external acceleration. A new algorithm is proposed to reduce z axis position (height) error. When a foot is on the ground, a foot angle is estimated using accelerometer output. Using a foot angl...
