This change means that provided the GPS_DELAY_MS parameters are set for each GPS receiver attached, the EKF will not have to wait for the configuration of each receiver to be determined before it can start.
This significantly reduces start-up times when the delay parameters are set.
If variance falls below desired minimum, set state noise to a larger value.
If variance drops below safe value, set to desired minimum and reset off-diagonals to zero.
To eliminate the possibility of editing errors, revert the covariance prediction auto-code to the original auto-code without the replacement fo the /2 and /4 operations. The compiler optimisations are able to correctly handle the /2 and /4 operations.
Also use local variables for intermediate covariance calculations. The use of class variables for these small arrays was unnecessary.
This patch ensures that covariance matrix entries for inactive states are always set to zero.
It also halves the number of copy operations from the updated to stored matrix.
All Kalman gain calculations now explicity set gains for deactivated states to zero.
Previous use of loops to set gains to zero have been replaced with more efficient memset operations.
Inhibiting gyro bias estimation during the initial tilt alignment speeds alignment.
The calculation of the maxmum state index required has been modified so that it can handle all combinations of inhibited states.
Limiting the maximum state index accessed by all EKF operations result in significant processing reductions when higher index states are not being used.
Fix rounding error bug preventing state from updating after initial convergence.
Decouple GPS reference height from published EKf origin height.
Add bitmask parameter to control update and publishing of GPS reference height.
this changes the stragegy for load levelling between EKF cores so it
works between EK2 and EK3, and with future estimators as well.
It allows us to run EK3 and EK2 at the same time with good scheduling
performance
If the GPS receiver selection changes and we are using GPS for height, the vertical position will be reset to the new GPS height measurement.
