Paul Riseborough 68b225de4d AP_NavEKF: Prevent pre-arm baro drift affecting mag field reset height 2015-04-24 10:57:54 +09:00
Paul Riseborough c2e6fdb56c AP_NavEKF: Reduce effect of noisy baro data on baro height offset estimate
This estimate is used to offset baro data if we need to switch across from range finder data due to sensor failure. The previous filter coefficients gave a 0.5 seconds time constant on the offset which was too susceptible to baro noise.

Paul Riseborough fd7fdc1ad9 AP_NavEKF: Remove unnecessary state resets on arm and disarm
Resetting states unnecessarily creates transients due to presence of bias errors

Paul Riseborough e48171ab11 AP_NavEKF: Improve takeoff with optical flow and range data loss
Range finder and optical flow data can drop-out and be reliable very close to ground. these patches enable the takeoff to be more relaibly detected and constrain optical flow navigation drift in the first part of takeoff.

Paul Riseborough 5d70854c08 AP_NavEKF: Fix minor bug in calculation of innovation variance

Paul Riseborough 89142f1c5f AP_NavEKF: Prevent inadvertent use of DCM roll and pitch estimates.
the use of roll and pitch from the AHRS object is bad because that object could be returning estimates from the backup DCM algorithm.

Paul Riseborough 7fc0f026d2 AP_NavEKF: Fix bug in optical flow innovation variance integrity check
The check allowed negative innovation variances to pass. If this did occur, the filter would diverge.

Paul Riseborough 10f050c53b AP_NavEKF: Prevent baro drift causing toilet bowling
The magnetic field states are reset once at 1.5 metres and again at 5 metres. This height check was using the height at the first arm event as the reference. In the situation where there is baro drift and extgended time between the first arm event and flight, this can cause the magnetic field state to be reset when on the ground. If this happens when flying off a metallic surface, the resultant heading errors can cause sever toilet bowling.
