priseborough 4a898037e9 AP_NavEKF3: documentation update 2017-05-01 14:24:55 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell a04aff7a7d AP_NavEKF3: added inter-EKF scheduling cooperation
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

Randy Mackay a80c0a231d AP_NavEKF3: attempt to set-up every core

priseborough 7a8783f35e AP_NavEKF3: Fix bug preventing reset to GPS
This fixes a bug that prevented the reset to the GPS position occurring if GPS velocity observations were still passing innovation consistency checks.

priseborough ccb952ba31 AP_NavEKF3: Use the same mag fusion method for all cores
The original reason for using a different method for the second core is no longer valid.

priseborough 4540faf6af AP_NavEKF3: Improve waiting for GPS configuration
Do not time out and provide an escalating series of messages. We may need to adjust the time thresholds used for escalation.
Do not wait if the EKF is not using the GPS.

priseborough 52e8f687d9 AP_NavEKF3: fix logic bug introduced by magnetometer use changes 2017-01-27 16:57:42 +09:00
priseborough a133d55b6d AP_NavEKF3: Allow copters to fly with magnetometers disabled
Copter operation without a magnetometer is limited to constant position and relative position modes only (no GPS or range beacon fusion permitted)
Copter optical flow operation without a magnetometer is permitted.
The ability of planes to takeoff/launch without a magnetometer and align the yaw using the GPS velocity is retained.

priseborough b723966b8d AP_NavEKF2: Add protection against bad GPS time delay values
Prevent bad values for GPS time delay pushing the GPS time stamp outside the range of IMU data contained in the buffer. If this occurs it can prevent the GPS measurements from being fused and cause loss of navigation.

priseborough b862f0d7ad AP_NavEKF3: Enable use of GPS delay value from returned by the driver
Use the time delay returned by the GPS driver.
Wait long enough for the GPS configuration to be determined, but time out after 30 seconds and warn the user that a default value for time delay will be used.

priseborough 8d1733cee6 AP_NavEKF3: Use FIR filtered airspeed
Switch to use of an airspeed reading averaged across the raw sensor readings. since the last update.
This avoids use of the IIR which requires a larger time delay compensation and violates the assumption of uncorrelated noise.
The time delay parameter has been reduced to compensate for the removal of the airspeed IIR filtering.

priseborough 9261c34097 AP_NavEKF3: Update default GPS delay
This value is a compromise between what works best for a Ublox 6 which is around 200msec delay and the more recent 7 and 8 series receivers that are around 120msec delay.

priseborough ed5039823f AP_NavEKF3: Adapt sensor buffer lengths
Adapt the lengths of the IMU and observations buffers on startup to the specified time delays and update rates.
This does require the EKF to be re-started if time delays are changed.
