Andrew Tridgell a762926526 AP_GPS: fixed constrained NaN in EKF3 caused by bad GPS blending
if the accuracies reported are very low then we can do a division by
zero and this results in a constraining NaN for GPS vertical velocity
filter in NavEKF3_core::calcGpsGoodToAlign

Andrew Tridgell e995a198bd AP_GPS: always send GPS2_RAW if 2nd GPS configured
this improves the display on the GCS when the GPS has not yet been
found. This is particularly important after a reboot, as otherwise the
GCS may display stale information from the previous boot

Andrew Tridgell 87c7781be2 AP_GPS: show GPS as unhealthy if it is lagged too much
this detects GPS data lag, and if 5 samples in a row are lagged by
more than 50ms beyond the expected lag for the GPS then we declare the
GPS as unhealthy.

This is useful to detect users who have asked for more data from the
GPS then it can send at the baudrate that is being used. The case that
led to this path was a F9 GPS with GPS_RAW_DATA=1 at 115200 baud. In
that case the UART data is quickly lagged by over 1s

Andrew Tridgell 529bfe8fcd AP_GPS: fixed issue with GPS selection for moving baseline
when you have a moving baseline pair of ublox GPS modules and the
rover GPS does not have full fixed RTK lock on the base GPS then we
should not use it as our primary GPS as it's position and velocity can
be badly affected by the attempts of the GPS to gain a fixed lock.

This was observed in a flight with two F9P GPS, where the GPS velocity
data from the rover GPS went way off when it lost full RTK lock. It's
status stayed at 4, so it was selected as the primary GPS

Andrew Tridgell 7027eecd34 AP_GPS: added GPS_DRV_OPTIONS
this allows for configuration of moving baseline with either uart1 or
uart2 for the RTCM data. Using uart2 requires an extra cable between
the two modules, but requires less uart bandwidth which is good when
DMA channels are low. Using uart2 also avoids the rtcmv3 parser, which
saves memory

Dr.-Ing. Amilcar Do Carmo Lucas d3a18e803e AP_GPS: Fix MAVLink message field SYSTEM_TIME.time_unix_usec when GPS_AUTO_SWITCH = blend
The mavlink message field SYSTEM_TIME.time_unix_usec works fine with GPS_AUTO_SWITCH == 0 (no switch) or ==1 (usebest)
But when GPS_AUTO_SWITCH == 2 (blend) then state[GPS_BLENDED_INSTANCE].last_gps_time_ms gets initialized with 0 and never rewritten.

The consequence: SYSTEM_TIME.time_unix_usec gets stuck at zero.
The solution: Do not reset state[GPS_BLENDED_INSTANCE].last_gps_time_ms because it would overwrite the correct value already set on line 1149

Niels Joubert 4bf9fc071c AP_GPS: Adds SBP Version 2: Swift Navigation Piksi Multi support
This commit adds:

- New driver for SBPv2
--- Support Piksi Multi, Swift Navigation's multi-band multi-constellation GPS
--- Proper parsing of SBP flags
--- Instant response to Piksi status changes (no more timeouts)
--- Support for Piksi Multi as a Single-Point-Positioning GPS or only onboard GPS
--- Incorporates horizontal and vertical accuracy estimates, and vdop.
- Updates driver for SBPv0
--- Continue support for previous Piksi

- Dispatches correct driver based on SBP version.

Randy Mackay 5de64273ec AP_GPS: more efficient initialisation of blending arrays 2017-03-13 11:31:51 +11:00
Randy Mackay ef1399a52f AP_GPS: fixups after peer review
This includes these changes:
RATE_MS, RATE_MS2 parameter description Range minimum reduced to 50
_blend_health_counter is reset to 0 if blending is disabled
GPS_MAX_RECEIVERS is replaced with GPS_BLENDED_INSTANCE where appropriate
simplify all_consistent functions check of number of receivers
calc_blended_weights fix for initial check of how many receivers we have
remove unnecessary setting of GPS last time when blending fails
remove RebootRequired from AUTO_SWITCH param description
2017-03-13 11:31:51 +11:00
Randy Mackay 729ce34ce3 AP_GPS: add all_consistent and blend health for use as pre-arm check 2017-03-13 11:31:51 +11:00
Randy Mackay 72dfe1127f AP_GPS: protect parameters from being accessed externally
backends become friends so they can continue to access parameters held in frontend
get_rate_ms made private because only used by frontend
Also moved static arrays higher in cpp file
2017-03-13 11:31:51 +11:00
Randy Mackay 3172657f26 AP_GPS: move constructor and complex accessors to cpp file
These functions are slightly long and make the .h file hard to read.  Also saves a small amount of flash space.

Randy Mackay 0066022a7f AP_GPS: check for valid instance in highest_supported_status
highest_supported_status will always return FIX_3D for blended or invalid instance
setHIL_Accuracy checks instance is 2 or less
send_mavlink_gps2_raw uses num_instances variable directly to avoid confusion with num_sensors

priseborough be0096e812 AP_GPS: Allow the user to specify the GPS time delay
If the user sets a non-zero value of the delay it will be used in preference over the default value for that GPS type.
If the GPS type is unknown and the parameter is set to zero, then a default delay of 1 sample period will be used (eg 200ms for 5Hz).
