Paul Riseborough 824436dfb6 AP_NavEKF2: Explicitly define constants as floats 2015-10-20 15:21:40 +11:00
Paul Riseborough 2fbd050418 AP_NavEKF2: Use blended accelerometer data
If high vibration levels cause offsets between the two, it switches to the accelerometer with lower vibration levels. The default behaviour is to use the average of both accelerometers.

Paul Riseborough 6b3e114cd6 AP_NavEKF: Enable EKF1 to be disabled to reduce frame over-runs 2015-10-20 15:21:39 +11:00
Paul Riseborough 1a1236f764 AP_NavEKF2: Update magnetometer fusion documentation 2015-10-20 15:21:39 +11:00
Paul Riseborough 8526a8ba7e AP_NavEKF2: Level processor loading between frames
Don't fuse other measurements on the same frame that magnetometer measurements arrive if running at a high frame rate as there will be insufficient time to complete other operations.

Paul Riseborough 225b81baf4 AP_NavEKF2: Prevent users breaking filter by setting excessive time delays
If time deelays greater than the IMU buffer length are used, then it is possible for measurements to be dropped.

Paul Riseborough a1d6c7ae1e AP_NavEKF2: Improve timing accuracy
This parameter is a compromise between numerical accuracy of the covariance prediction and sensor timing jitter
Further testing has shown that doing covariance prediction and sensor fusion every 10msec has no observable effect on fusion health and reduces timing hitter noise on magnetometer observations during high rate maneovures
2015-10-20 15:21:39 +11:00
Paul Riseborough e0ed2dab63 AP_NavEKF2: Adjust IMU FIFO buffer for different IMU data rates
The values chosen ensure that up to consistent 250 msec of sensor delay compensation is available for different platform types
The revised values also ensure that fusion occurs at different time to when the 10Hz magnetometer measurements are read

Paul Riseborough baa8692960 AP_NavEKF2: Allow use of magnetometer learning during optical flow nav
Adds fusion of the declination when there are no earth relative measurements so that the declination angle and therefore the copters yaw angle have an absolute reference.
This enables the length (but not the declination) of the earth field North/East states to change along with the magnetometer offsets.

Provide an option to always do learning

Change defaults so that plane learns when airborne
Change defaults so that Rover does not learn (large external magnetic interference)

Paul Riseborough 71c399674a AP_NavEKF2: Delay use of magnetic field states until off-ground
Magnetic interference whilst on the ground can adversely affect filter states. This patch ensures that the simpler and more robust magnetic heading observation method is used until the vehicle has cleared the ground.
