Paul Riseborough 98fa918b84 AP_NavEKF: Add new compass learning option 
Enables compass learning to be on continuously for non-position hold operation
 2015-04-03 15:15:09 -07:00
Paul Riseborough 961faa59d9 AP_NavEKF: Don't let reported GPS accuracy modify horiz vel data checks 2015-04-03 15:15:08 -07:00
Paul Riseborough a607eb8469 AP_NavEKF: Reduce the GPS glitch tether length from 100 to 50m 2015-04-03 15:15:08 -07:00
Paul Riseborough 496d31ab83 AP_NavEKF: Reduce max time Copters can reject GPS 
The maximum time copters can reject GPS has been reduced from 10 to 7 seconds as flight logs have show that inertial dead reckoning with vibration and calibration errors is not good enough to support 10 seconds without aiding.

Paul Riseborough 8c2029d896 AP_NavEKF: Accel bias learning improvements 
Speed up pre-flight learning
Smoothen in-flight learning

Paul Riseborough 19d1b3b813 AP_NavEKF: Update EKF origin height whilst disarmed 
This patch causes the EKF to update the height of its origin each time it receives a valid GPs message whislt disarmed.
The resultant EKF origin height represents the height of the zero baro alt datum relative to the GPS height datum.

Paul Riseborough 70afcd7e70 AP_NavEKF: Add second stage alignment of yaw and earth field states 
Flight tests have shown that the magnetic field distortion associated with flight from steel structures can extend 3m or higher. To counteract this, a second and final yaw and magnetic field alignment has been added which is activated when the height exceeds 5m for the first time.

Paul Riseborough ed9c05cf2a AP_NavEKF: Remove logic used to delay fusion for load levelling 
Logic used to delay optical flow and airspeed fusion to prevent it occurring on the same time step as magnetometer fusion has been removed. This is no longer required to efficiency improvements made at the firmware level.
 2015-04-03 15:15:07 -07:00
Paul Riseborough c0d23ffc30 AP_NavEKF: Filter accuracy and stability improvements 
Improvements in PX4 firmware have reduced the computational load  and mkae the previous practicwe of splitting magnetometer and optical flow fusion across multiple time steps unnecessary and make it possible to perform a covariance prediction prior to fusing data on the same time step. This patch:

1) Ensures that a covariance prediction is always performed prior to fusion of any observation
2) Removes the splitting of magnetometer fusion so that fusion of the X,Y and Z components occurs on the same time time step
3) Removes the splitting of optical flow fusion so that fusion of X and Y components occurs on the same time step

Jonathan Challinger de1f7f5e63 AP_NavEKF: use published delta velocities and delta angles if available 2015-04-03 15:15:07 -07:00
priseborough 3421a320b5 AP_NavEKF: Compensate for ground effect when takeoff or landing expected 2015-04-03 15:15:07 -07:00
Jonathan Challinger 20d92f5f9d AP_NavEKF: floor GPS velocity noise at parameter value for conservatism 2015-04-03 15:15:07 -07:00
priseborough 9a797a5d49 AP_NavEKF: Use GPS reported speed accuracy if available 
UBlox receivers report an estimate of the speed accuracy that tests show correlates well to speed glitches. Using this to scale the GPS velocity observation noise will reduce the effect of bad GPS velocity data.

Jonathan Challinger b2b42e081a AP_InertialSensor: use delta_velocity/dt for calibration if available 2015-04-03 14:54:10 -07:00
Jonathan Challinger 423160eaf8 AP_InertialSensor: publish delta_velocity_dt 2015-04-03 14:54:06 -07:00
Andrew Tridgell 4147825b87 AP_InertialSensor: fixed gyro calibration bug 
we must not update _gyro_offset[] until we have completed calibration
of that gyro, or we will end up using the new offsets when asking for
the raw gyro vector

Andrew Tridgell 728dbf24db AP_Math: fixed vector inequality test 
many thanks to cat888
