Resumen
This paper proposed a multi-view surface array to enlarge the field-of-view (FOV) from 45° × 45° to 72° × 75° and improve the estimation precision of guidance information. First, based on circular and rectangular FOV sensors, the superposition characteristics of FOV in the +-shaped layout and the X-shaped layout were explored and analyzed. Secondly, normalization processing was applied to obtain the equivalent measurement value of the central sensor and the corresponding error distribution. Based on such measurement value and error distribution, the filtering model could be constructed, which could effectively solve the problem of observation number variation caused by multiple sensors. Thirdly, a multivariate iterated extended Kalman filter (MIEKF) was proposed to make full use of multiple measurements. By iterating multiple unequal observations and making full use of the known error distribution information, the noise of filtered data was found to be effectively reduced and the estimation precision of guidance information was improved. Finally, based on a 6-DOF trajectory simulation, the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method were verified. Simulation results show that MIEKF can improve the estimation accuracy of the line-of-sight (LOS) angle by at least 30% and the estimation accuracy of the LOS angle rate by nearly 80% compared with EKF.
