Randy Mackay 5d23d5aaa7 WPNav: reduce loiter speed used to correct pos error 
Contributed by Leonard Hall
This should reduce the aggressiveness of the response when we experience
a GPS glitch

Randy Mackay 7860d06b91 AHRS: typo fix for ORIENTATION param description 2013-07-10 14:56:48 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 0f72401d8d AP_Baro: added GND_ALT_OFFSET parameter 
used for automatic barometric adjustment by a ground station equipped
with a barometer

Andrew Tridgell 279f6d00f0 AP_AHRS: changes for GPS field changes 2013-07-10 14:04:22 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7dbb898264 AP_GPS: switch fields to add units suffix 
altitude -> altitude_cm
ground_speed -> ground_speed_cm
ground_course -> ground_course_cd

this helps prevent unit mixups
 2013-07-10 14:04:22 +10:00
Paul Riseborough 66d60953df TECS: added height update_pitch call 2013-07-10 14:04:22 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9959f6b2df AP_Camera: removed incorrect mavlink sends 
these sends did nothing, as MAVLINK_COMM_3 is not connected to
anything. If it was connected they would be dangerous, as a blocking
serial write could cause the stabilization of a copter not to run. If
the serial port was non-blocking it would corrupt the packet.

If we needed something like this it would have to use the MAVLink
packet queueing logic we use elsewhere
 2013-07-10 11:51:40 +10:00
Craig@3DR f5154d9e7a AP_Camera: changed update_location() to return true for camera trigger

Tobias 4a75351bd3 AP_Param: fixed a compiler warning with -Wsign-conversion 2013-07-08 14:57:33 +10:00
Tobias 27a5c28851 AP_Param: fixed some compiler warnings 
* added comment
* replaced "~0" with the appropriate macro
* resolved -Wconversion
* saved some space by modifying AP_Param::add_vector_suffix (writing
behind buffer could happen, if buffer_size is almost uint16_max but this
can surely be ignored)

Tobias 338c054da2 Filter: validity of array index was checked AFTER accessing the element. 
(correction decreased Program size by 12 bytes)
 2013-07-08 12:17:59 +10:00
Tobias d3ea88e8c7 AP_HAL: resolved -Woverloaded-virtual warning 
the function:
virtual size_t AP_HAL::Print::write(const uint8_t *buffer, size_t size);

was hidden in all derived classes by their
virtual size_t write(uint8_t) = 0; implementations.

To solve this, a non-virtual write(const uint8_t *, size_t) that calls a
virtual write_implementation was added.

This isn't necessary atm, because the derived classes don't call
write(const uint8_t *, size_t), BUT this decreases the apm2-quad Program
size by 40 bytes :D and removes warnings.

Andrew Tridgell 26b7de668a AP_Param: fixed parameter save bug 
This bug affected parameters where the defaults are overridden in the
object constructor. For example, a PID object may have a default value
for PID_D of 0.0, but have a constructor based default of 0.2. If the
user tries to set the value to exactly 0.0, then the set wouldn't happen,
as the value matches the value in the object default var_info[]
table. 

This change ensures we force a save to eeprom if the value is changing
from the current value, regardless of the var_info[] default.

Thanks to Tom Coyle for finding this bug!

Randy Mackay 400c1bd7b7 Copter: smooth waypoint transitions 
Speed of intermediate point is initialised and constrained based on
current speed vector vs direction to the next waypoint.
This means the copter does not slow if the previous segment and next
segment are in line and also the intermediate point is not advanced
towards the next waypoint if the copter is moving quickly in the
opposite direction.

Paul Riseborough 10ecffce01 APM_Control: ROLL and PITCH controllers 
These changes reduce height variation in turns and improve
robustness. the specific changes are:

1) Linked roll and pitch integrator protection to the final output
value so that if final output is on upper limit, the integrator is
prevented from increasing and vice-versa. This improves wind-up
protection.

2) Modified rate feedback in roll and pitch controllers to use body
rates rather than Euler or earth rates.

3) Changed the roll to pitch compensation to use measured roll angle
and estimated airspeed to calculate the component of turn rate
(assuming a level coordinated turn) around the pitch axis. This a
mathematically correct calculation and will work over a range of bank
angles and aircraft with minimal (if any) tuning required.

4) The integrator in the roll and pitch loop is clamped when the
estimated speed is below the minimum FBW speed

5) The noise filter in the pitch and roll loop has been changed to use
a FOH discretisation. This gives improved noise rejection and less
phase loss when compared to the previous filter that used a ZOH or
equivalent discretisation.

This has been flown on the rascal in the SITL and on a X-8 with
limited flight testing. Initial results have been encouraging with
reduced height variation in turns.  Compare to standard PIDS, the
revised pitch and roll controllers allow the use of rate feedback
(effectively the same as the old D term) without beating the servos to
death.  The bank angle compensation in the pitch loop works
effectively over a much larger range of bank angles and requires
minimal tuning compared to the old calculation.

YAW CONTROLLER

Currently testing the a 3-loop acceleration autopilot topology for the
yaw loop with feed forward yaw rate for turn compensation. This 3-loop
topology is commonly used in tactical skid to to turn missiles and is
easy to tune. The following block diagram shows the general signal
flow

Note that the acceleration measurement has to pass through an
integrator before it gets to the actuator. This is a important feature
as it eliminates problems of high frequency noise and potential
coupling with structural modes associated with direct feedback of
measured acceleration to actuator.

The high pass filter has been inserted to compensate for airspeed and
bank angle measurement errors which will cause steady state errors in
the calculation of the turn yaw rate.

The yaw controller flies SITL well, but hasn't been flight tested
yet. It can be configured either as a simple yaw damper, or the
acceleration and integral term can be turned on to allow feedback
control of lateral acceleration/sideslip.

TO DO:

Need to reduce number of tuning parameters and provide consistent
naming Need to provide guidance on tuning these loops with definitions
for all the gain terms.  Need to check signs and units into and out of
lateral loops.

DESIGN DECISIONS PENDING:

1) Can we remove the noise filters? Provided the mpu6k noise filter is
running they are of limited benefit given the 25Hz Nyquist frequency

2) If we do remove them and rely on the mpu6k noise filter, what is
the apprporiate default cutoff frequency for plane use. 20Hz is
probably OK for most setups, but some noisy/high vibration setups
would require as low as 10Hz

3) The inverted flight logic looks like a crash waiting to
happen. It's problematic to test and even if implemented correctly
would still crash a plane with poor inverted flight capability. We
should either implement it properly and fully tested or delete it.

priseborough 205397d030 APM_Control: Modified calculation of bank compensation rate offset to prevent climb if speed > max fbw speed

would result in an unwanted climb if flown above the max fbw speed
