Adam M Rivera 0dcc4e8307 AP_Declination: Implemented Delta Encoding and Run-Length Encoding. Added method to traverse the compressed array and return the lookup value based on the same lat_index/lon_index that was used before. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Adam M Rivera 3a849771bc AP_Declination: Changed PROGMEM read function to pgm_read_word_far to support the int16_t datatype. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Adam M Rivera 370e56c00a AP_Declination: Changed datatype to int16_t to support the -90 <-> 90 latitude range. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Adam M Rivera ae257ad42b AP_Declination: Reduced the size of the lookup table to support -75 <-> 70 latitude range. This allows the datatype to remain int8_t. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b549b88e5e AHRS: fixed error_yaw reporting with 2 MAVLink connections 
when a user first connects with USB, and later switches to the
telemetry port without restarting we were getting zero for error_yaw
in the logs, as AHRS.get_error_yaw() was being called twice.

This ensures we give the last value after the counter is reset
 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 16deefce31 Compass: fixed a comment 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 17290836ef Compass: added some more comments 
explain the algorithm a bit more
 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
rmackay9 2ce597642e Filter - added FilterWithBuffer typedefs for int32t and uint32 for ease of use 2012-03-28 22:02:52 +09:00
rmackay9 90fcdeadfd AP_OpticalFlow - small bug fix to ensure init attempts to read the product id 3 times before giving up 2012-03-28 22:00:57 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 10c35e3769 SITL: add magnetic field noise to the simulated compass 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f4c1b6a3c6 SITL: ensure we don't run the sitl timer twice 
this caused problems with random()
 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b2d6db9479 Compass: implement noise resistant varient of offset learning 
This adds a large amount of noise robustness to the compass offset
learning algorithm, at a cost of 120 bytes of memory. The changes are
based on a long discussion with Bill Premerlani.
 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9b95d2060a ADC: minor fix to the ADC Ch6() code 
we don't need to add count any more, as floating point maths doesn't
need to round up
 2012-03-27 15:37:24 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a72d4b46b3 Compass: implement Bills new offset nulling algorithm 
this seems to work much better than the old algorithm, converging
faster and more accurately. Even better, it has no linkage to DCM, so
no possibility of nasty feedback effects
 2012-03-27 15:37:24 +11:00
rmackay9 b5dbdab81e APM_RC - moved Force_Out0_Out1, Force_Out2_Out3 and Force_Out6_Out6 to APM_RC parent class because it's already implemented in the APM1 and APM2 child classes anyway 2012-03-25 21:13:31 +09:00
rmackay9 2b2dbf2a7f Filter - added simple LowPassFilter (simple but it's possible to make errors with simple stuff too so might as well have one) 2012-03-25 16:15:25 +09:00
rmackay9 39fd24ed14 Filter - remove obsolete warning from comments re alloc/malloc dangers 2012-03-25 16:14:07 +09:00
rmackay9 2d65ec2874 AP_Baro - change data type size of temperature's average filter to int32_t (was int16_t) 2012-03-24 23:21:11 +09:00
rmackay9 d371862fd2 AP_OpticalFlow - resolved compile error in example sketch (it could not find DCM.h but it's not required anyway) 2012-03-24 14:47:21 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell a6d66dc45b Math: added mul_transpose() operation 
this is equivalent to multiplying by m.transposed(), but is more
efficient
 2012-03-23 16:48:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f4d1295a4b AHRS: fixed build of AHRS example 2012-03-22 23:00:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fe55a76335 Math: moved matrix multiple operations to .cpp file 
this means we only link this in once, rather than for every use of
matrix multiply, which saves us some flash space

We need to be careful not to put large pieces of code in template
headers, as if the operation is used a lot, it costs us a lot of code
space
 2012-03-21 10:43:48 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 17fbb8ea26 Math: fixed the build of the eulers test in SITL 2012-03-21 10:41:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 90c3d230d9 SITL: improve the simulated compass 
this implements a much more accurate model of a compass using matrix
rotations, instead of trying to calculate components directly
 2012-03-21 10:41:55 +11:00
rmackay9 24a471ff8f AC_PID - added more paranoid checking that imax is positive in constructor, operator() and load_gains methods 2012-03-20 11:51:15 +09:00

Andrew Tridgell 4f82134a5e DCM: use the new rotate() method from AP_Math 
this allows us to use a tested and optimised rotation method
 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 17f7292fe9 Math: added a test for the rotate() method 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c16b353ea7 Math: added rotate() method to Matrix3f 
this is the core method used to update the DCM matrix with a gyro
vector. Moving it to AP_Math allows us to have a test for it
 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 31e566475b Math: added zero() and identity() methods to Matrix3f 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 58a68c89d9 Math: added a function to combine standard rotations 
this will allow us to have an overall board rotation plus a per-sensor
rotation
 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 55ed84526a MAVLink: rename DCM message to AHRS 2012-03-19 17:29:01 +11:00
rmackay9 01cc5fe938 AP_Baro - removed unnecessary 2 element average filtering of pressure (there is a 4 or 5 element average filter in arducopter code itself, two places is messy) 
- also removed unused _offset_press variable
 2012-03-18 15:18:05 +09:00
rmackay9 7560242721 AP_Baro - added average filter for temperature to replace broken filter 
- added average filter (for last two values) for raw pressure
        - changed some "long" to int32_t and "unsigned long" to uint32_t
 2012-03-18 01:06:02 +09:00

thanks Justin!
 2012-03-13 13:27:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 13dac4a93a DCM: adjust yaw kp constant down to 0.4 
this makes the time constant for compass errors closely match the
timing of the older releases - about 10 seconds for a 1 radian change
in heading
 2012-03-12 17:49:26 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7daaadf776 Compass: fixed the order of rotations in the compass driver

Adam M Rivera fe8c896d69 AP_Declination: Added method set_initial_location 
This will set the declination based on lat/lon if the user has
not yet saved one to the EEPROM, OR if they have specified via the
config parameter that they want it to overwrite the declination every
3D fix.

compile time for now, and is always set
 2012-03-11 15:37:07 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0ec9857689 Math: any euler angle with pitch > 90 is invalid

Andrew Tridgell 289c64c0b9 Math: added vector3.rotate() and matrix3.rotation() methods 
these operate on a "enum Rotation" which defines a set of standard
rotations. These are much faster than our previous method, plus use
less memory
 2012-03-11 15:37:07 +11:00

to run at a different rate to the accel correction
 2012-03-10 10:34:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell bcb7196680 IMU: added get_gyro_drift_rate() interface

Andrew Tridgell f70dfe440d Quaternion: fix the gyro bias in centripetal and remove smoothing 
the centripetal code needs to take account of the current gyro
bias.

It turned out that the accel and gyro smoothing was causing
significant control lag, and we're better off just letting the
quaternion code handle it via its own smoothing parameters
 2012-03-10 10:34:30 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 47ddd4dfdd SITL: disable interrupts during register updates

airspeed sensor if available.
 2012-03-10 10:34:30 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c7ef72cf28 Quaternion: don't update if we have a very long deltat

Andrew Tridgell cc887949c9 AP_IMU: improved the gyro calibration code 
this should give a much more accurate result
 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ffa6786697 Quaternion: drop the gyro drift rates down 
this should allow us to cope with noise more readily

Andrew Tridgell c369d9f60a AP_Quaternion: added DCM compatibility interfaces 
useful for getting the code going quickly
 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6138f31cec AP_IMU: added new_data_available() interface 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell c80ec9a55c AP_ADC: added new_data_available() interface 
returns true if more samples are available
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c8a459ab0d fixed deltat in quaternion 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a791224d07 SITL: make SITL not depend on DCM 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 74eef7018a Quaternion: added an AP_Quaternion library 
this is for experimenting with the Madgwick quaternion system, to see
if it is more or less noise sensitive than DCM
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fd2a24f8ed SITL: reduce the simulated compass offsets 
this was causing us problems in getting DCM right
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell bddc6ba241 SITL: separate out drift speed and drift level 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 25cad09746 SITL: added a drift_level multiplier 
this makes it easier to experiment with different gyro drift levels
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b11b571778 DCM: fixed the averaging of accel values for update_DCM_fast() 
this should improve drift correction for ArduCopter
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 145fc91701 AP_Math: added a .zero() method to Vector3f 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ae51173656 SITL: fixed delay() to account for signal interrupions 
when a timer went off we stopped the delay() code
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fe173227de DCM_Test: fixed example code to work with SITL 
this also fixes the compass setup
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 8424609924 SITL: push noise level to 2.0 for DCM testing 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6ba6e11e7b DCM: added a small amount of accel smoothing to update_DCM_fast() 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3b1782f369 DCM: don't use the z accel sensor for drift correction 
the z accel is the noisest, and seems to do more harm than good. Using
just x and y is sufficient for drift correction by assuming the vector
length
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 4031320f7c DCM: added a small amount of gyro and accel smoothing 
possibly not needed, but convenient to be able to test with different
values
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 94d0236b97 DCM: added reporting interfaces for DCM state 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 772c30ba86 SITL: added sitl_simstate_send() 
used to report simulator state in logs
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9df332f0ae MAVLink: import new message types DCM, HWSTATUS and SIMSTATE 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell cc8278c1ac DCM: got rid of _error_roll_pitch from object state 
this can be a local error variable in common with the yaw code. This
saves 12 bytes in the object.

Jason Short 486c56ce41 Consolidated Barometer pressure sensing to a single filter based on Randy's new filter class. 2012-03-08 23:13:04 -08:00
Jason Short e57b91c2e2 Updated on Barometer - increased the Temp filtering and decreased the pressure filtering to and get less temp noise, faster response from pressure. I'm filtering the Climb rate differently now, so this higher pressure noise should not hurt the derivative calcs at all now. 2012-03-06 20:55:35 -08:00
rmackay9 6c3cf9ad5b AP_RC - removed unused library 2012-03-04 18:21:52 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 73dafe537e SITL: use the new noise model 
use the new noise model at a low level for master until we sort out
DCM noise handling
 2012-03-02 18:31:07 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5f749325f0 APM_RC: allow the fast RC speed to be passed as a parameter 
this will allow users to test different speeds
 2012-03-02 17:57:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f4329d2680 AP_Param: ensure we can't have duplicate keys in Parameters.h 
this is O(n^2), but only at startup, and takes less than 1ms to run.
It catches a very nasty coding error
 2012-03-02 15:48:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1e8d98cdda I2C: added lockup_count() interface 
used for reporting I2C problems
 2012-03-02 15:48:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 37275d229d SITL: implement cli()/sei() properly for desktop build 
this disables simulated hardware interrupts during critical sections
 2012-03-02 15:48:27 +11:00
Jason Short 41b435a487 Updated fastPWM to 490Hz 2012-02-29 22:17:38 -08:00
Pat Hickey 337af0c7a2 AP_Param: nested group recursion into next_group disableable by macro

rmackay9 fa34ac076e AP_Compass - fixed compile warning 2012-02-29 22:57:35 +09:00
rmackay9 d81c951849 AP_Baro - fixed small compiler warning to do with order of parameters in constructor 2012-02-29 22:46:29 +09:00

rmackay9 c444cdb3f4 AP_ADC - removed small compiler warning 2012-02-29 22:43:46 +09:00
Pat Hickey eac8b66385 AP_Param: Make nested group recursion disableable by macro 
* Eliminates recursive calls inside AP_Param.
  This is important to Pat @ Galois, but not the project in general.
  Recursion depth on these functions is bounded structurally using
  existing nested group constructors (can't create loops in finite space)
  and checked at init time
 2012-02-28 16:28:27 -08:00
rmackay9 2b6a10d18b AP_RangeFinder - changed example sketch to work with new Filter library 2012-02-28 21:02:10 +09:00
rmackay9 033347f8ee Filter - updated example sketch to use modified library 2012-02-28 21:01:35 +09:00
rmackay9 645fda2fb2 Filter - added AverageFilter, removed SumFilter 
added FilterWithBuffer to allow removal of malloc/free without losing ability to pass around filter objects
 2012-02-28 21:01:11 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell cb52b6c6d9 AP_Param: show numerical value in eeprom dump utility 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a432232db9 AP_Param: fixed v.load() on a sub-element of a AP_Vector3f 
this isn't actually used at the moment in APM, but we should get it
right in case someone does try to load a single element of a vector
 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 39797c6f33 SITL: simulate noise on each ADC channel separately 
scale the noise based on the period of the motors
 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell efe5c0142c SITL: raise the ADC noise level to 8 bits when flying 
this is about the level of noise of a aircraft that has a lot of
vibration
 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell cd4fcb694e IMU: removed unused accel_filtered code 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 87a6d97f7b AP_Param: fixed setting of CAM_P_G in ArduCopter 
the variable CAM_P_G has the same prefix as the CAM_P group. We want
to allow for parameters having a common prefix with a group, so we
need to keep searching after we've found a group that matches the
prefix
 2012-02-27 10:54:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fa443bd928 AP_Param: make the templating code a bit clearer 
add comments on the arguments, and name them in a clearer way
 2012-02-27 10:54:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell eb35e0e8ac DCM: fixed the sense of the compass GPS test in initial yaw 
we were only disabling null offsets when we didn't have a compass,
which doesn't make much sense!
 2012-02-26 22:24:45 +11:00
rmackay9 297d2ae457 ModeFilter - corrected shadowed variable compiler warning for drop_high_sample 2012-02-26 17:57:28 +09:00
rmackay9 b9b88ba237 Filter - added AverageFilter - this will be used in place of SumFilter because it removes the possibility of overflows 2012-02-26 17:34:36 +09:00
rmackay9 f53ff8de97 Filter - removed shadowing of variables in constructors for Filter, ModeFilter and SumFilter (sorry tridge!) 
increased maximum sample buffer size from 6 to 10
 2012-02-26 17:17:46 +09:00
rmackay9 74f7d7a1c0 ModeFilter - remove older ModeFilter library (new library is now in Filter directory) 2012-02-26 15:36:23 +09:00
rmackay9 f264e29814 AP_RangeFinder - cut over to use new ModeFilter from Filter library 2012-02-26 15:34:50 +09:00
rmackay9 c14d7768f7 Filter - first version of filter library include ModeFilter 2012-02-26 15:34:05 +09:00
rmackay9 952e5d7bbc AP_Mount - #include FastSerial first to allow it to compile under Arduino 1.0 2012-02-26 15:31:56 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell d0a6359b37 Compass: use constructor to set initial values for _learn and _use_for_yaw 
this ensures they are set if you have MAG_ENABLE==0
 2012-02-25 17:36:31 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 900388a85a DCM: disable compass null offsets when setting initial yaw 
we need to ensure the compass null offsets code doesn't see a sudden
yaw change, or it will change the offsets by a large amount very
suddenly
 2012-02-25 16:02:24 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f59297d7a7 Compass: catch the case of a user enabling a compass mid-flight 
if a compass has not been initialised at startup we can't enable it
mid-flight, as we don't have the orientation
 2012-02-25 14:51:09 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell eb71b26d3f DCM: use the new use_for_yaw() compass method 2012-02-25 14:51:09 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 664622523d Compass: added COMPASS_LEARN and COMPASS_USE parameters 
these allow you to control if the compass should be used for yaw and
if it should learn its offsets. This is useful for locking in compass
offsets once they are confirmed to be good, and for learning offsets
without using them in flights.

The default is to behave the same as previously, which is
COMPASS_LEARN=1 and COMPASS_USE=1
 2012-02-25 14:51:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f10097a6d5 AP_Param: added some comments on AP_Vector3f handling 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5e2fbdb6cf DCM: don't reset _have_initial_yaw for GPS heading unless very slow 
wait till we reach 1m/s before we reset _have_initial_yaw. This
prevents us continually resetting the DCM matrix if our ground speed
is close to 3m/s.
 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2e9105c68a AP_Param: added special handling for Vector3f 
We would like to be able to use Vector3f as a parameter while exposing
the individual elements of the vector as MAVLink parameters. This
change to AP_Param makes that possible, by giving AP_Vector3f a dual
personality
 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d6bfceef7c SITL: added -C option to desktop mode 
this allows running APM to stdout, which is useful for test sketches
 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
