Adam M Rivera 782c1aaaa3 AP_Declination: Implemented Delta Encoding and Run-Length Encoding. Added method to traverse the compressed array and return the lookup value based on the same lat_index/lon_index that was used before. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Adam M Rivera 9888a4730f AP_Declination: Changed PROGMEM read function to pgm_read_word_far to support the int16_t datatype. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Adam M Rivera d883bdf75e AP_Declination: Changed datatype to int16_t to support the -90 <-> 90 latitude range. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Adam M Rivera 719636d00c AP_Declination: Reduced the size of the lookup table to support -75 <-> 70 latitude range. This allows the datatype to remain int8_t. 2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 071f89df2e AHRS: fixed error_yaw reporting with 2 MAVLink connections 
when a user first connects with USB, and later switches to the
telemetry port without restarting we were getting zero for error_yaw
in the logs, as AHRS.get_error_yaw() was being called twice.

This ensures we give the last value after the counter is reset
 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 20941c15c3 Compass: fixed a comment 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 79deeef0a0 Compass: added some more comments 
explain the algorithm a bit more
 2012-03-29 12:39:53 +11:00
rmackay9 fd5e1c2f7b Filter - added FilterWithBuffer typedefs for int32t and uint32 for ease of use 2012-03-28 22:02:52 +09:00
rmackay9 99cdc69110 AP_OpticalFlow - small bug fix to ensure init attempts to read the product id 3 times before giving up 2012-03-28 22:00:57 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 972bdcfa39 SITL: add magnetic field noise to the simulated compass 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell dc127fe749 SITL: ensure we don't run the sitl timer twice 
this caused problems with random()
 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2a011578f9 Compass: implement noise resistant varient of offset learning 
This adds a large amount of noise robustness to the compass offset
learning algorithm, at a cost of 120 bytes of memory. The changes are
based on a long discussion with Bill Premerlani.
 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 16f094a1c5 ADC: minor fix to the ADC Ch6() code 
we don't need to add count any more, as floating point maths doesn't
need to round up
 2012-03-27 15:37:24 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a3d3dd86cf Compass: implement Bills new offset nulling algorithm 
this seems to work much better than the old algorithm, converging
faster and more accurately. Even better, it has no linkage to DCM, so
no possibility of nasty feedback effects
 2012-03-27 15:37:24 +11:00
rmackay9 cf1a6f8ab8 APM_RC - moved Force_Out0_Out1, Force_Out2_Out3 and Force_Out6_Out6 to APM_RC parent class because it's already implemented in the APM1 and APM2 child classes anyway 2012-03-25 21:13:31 +09:00
rmackay9 2324be7e68 Filter - added simple LowPassFilter (simple but it's possible to make errors with simple stuff too so might as well have one) 2012-03-25 16:15:25 +09:00
rmackay9 bdda74fd28 Filter - remove obsolete warning from comments re alloc/malloc dangers 2012-03-25 16:14:07 +09:00
rmackay9 dc58c8a905 AP_Baro - change data type size of temperature's average filter to int32_t (was int16_t) 2012-03-24 23:21:11 +09:00
rmackay9 766abb8e6c AP_OpticalFlow - resolved compile error in example sketch (it could not find DCM.h but it's not required anyway) 2012-03-24 14:47:21 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 477b31fb0d Math: added mul_transpose() operation 
this is equivalent to multiplying by m.transposed(), but is more
efficient
 2012-03-23 16:48:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1b3a7d47bd AHRS: fixed build of AHRS example 2012-03-22 23:00:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fb9790e1f4 Math: moved matrix multiple operations to .cpp file 
this means we only link this in once, rather than for every use of
matrix multiply, which saves us some flash space

We need to be careful not to put large pieces of code in template
headers, as if the operation is used a lot, it costs us a lot of code
space
 2012-03-21 10:43:48 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ece2aac4b9 Math: fixed the build of the eulers test in SITL 2012-03-21 10:41:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e93b31c76b SITL: improve the simulated compass 
this implements a much more accurate model of a compass using matrix
rotations, instead of trying to calculate components directly
 2012-03-21 10:41:55 +11:00
rmackay9 f8ad719825 AC_PID - added more paranoid checking that imax is positive in constructor, operator() and load_gains methods 2012-03-20 11:51:15 +09:00

Andrew Tridgell f1898c3335 DCM: use the new rotate() method from AP_Math 
this allows us to use a tested and optimised rotation method
 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9a40b4b1de Math: added a test for the rotate() method 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7d155c77b1 Math: added rotate() method to Matrix3f 
this is the core method used to update the DCM matrix with a gyro
vector. Moving it to AP_Math allows us to have a test for it
 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a41281ab7f Math: added zero() and identity() methods to Matrix3f 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell b6040878b4 Math: added a function to combine standard rotations 
this will allow us to have an overall board rotation plus a per-sensor
rotation
 2012-03-19 17:29:02 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 1170893aaa MAVLink: rename DCM message to AHRS 2012-03-19 17:29:01 +11:00
rmackay9 f3eb15167c AP_Baro - removed unnecessary 2 element average filtering of pressure (there is a 4 or 5 element average filter in arducopter code itself, two places is messy) 
- also removed unused _offset_press variable
 2012-03-18 15:18:05 +09:00
rmackay9 ed0d1da4f5 AP_Baro - added average filter for temperature to replace broken filter 
- added average filter (for last two values) for raw pressure
        - changed some "long" to int32_t and "unsigned long" to uint32_t
 2012-03-18 01:06:02 +09:00

thanks Justin!
 2012-03-13 13:27:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9a6adb9990 DCM: adjust yaw kp constant down to 0.4 
this makes the time constant for compass errors closely match the
timing of the older releases - about 10 seconds for a 1 radian change
in heading
 2012-03-12 17:49:26 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell aa408655f8 Compass: fixed the order of rotations in the compass driver

Adam M Rivera c390db5d92 AP_Declination: Added method set_initial_location 
This will set the declination based on lat/lon if the user has
not yet saved one to the EEPROM, OR if they have specified via the
config parameter that they want it to overwrite the declination every
3D fix.

Andrew Tridgell a20f57c59e Compass: don't save the orientation to EEPROM 
there is no point in saving this, the value is only configurable at
compile time for now, and is always set
 2012-03-11 15:37:07 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell cc1961b1e8 Math: any euler angle with pitch > 90 is invalid

Andrew Tridgell 85c3c1d2ea Math: added vector3.rotate() and matrix3.rotation() methods 
these operate on a "enum Rotation" which defines a set of standard
rotations. These are much faster than our previous method, plus use
less memory
 2012-03-11 15:37:07 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell fd74414884 Quaternion: go back to the full update_MARG() 
the separate drift controller is too erratic on yaw hold to be usable
at the moment

 2012-03-10 10:34:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f4b1dae7cf IMU: added get_gyro_drift_rate() interface 
this just calls down to the InertialSensor layer

 2012-03-10 10:34:32 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 4c6afa36cb DCM: removed update_DCM_fast 
this combines the functionality of the 'fast' DCM with the normal one,

Andrew Tridgell f71311fdc0 Quaternion: fix the gyro bias in centripetal and remove smoothing 
the centripetal code needs to take account of the current gyro
bias.

It turned out that the accel and gyro smoothing was causing
significant control lag, and we're better off just letting the
quaternion code handle it via its own smoothing parameters
 2012-03-10 10:34:30 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 76736792f8 SITL: disable interrupts during register updates

airspeed sensor if available.
 2012-03-10 10:34:30 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1ea1b500a6 Quaternion: don't update if we have a very long deltat

Andrew Tridgell e33bb217bc AP_IMU: improved the gyro calibration code 
this should give a much more accurate result
 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell de1cfc8e34 Quaternion: drop the gyro drift rates down 
this should allow us to cope with noise more readily

Andrew Tridgell a85ba80246 AP_Quaternion: added DCM compatibility interfaces 
useful for getting the code going quickly
 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 626f8598ed AP_IMU: added new_data_available() interface 2012-03-10 10:34:29 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a052aa8435 AP_InertialSensor: added new_data_available() interface 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 61d649e7ac AP_ADC: added new_data_available() interface 
returns true if more samples are available
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 4a277f9871 fixed deltat in quaternion 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 353f9e613f SITL: make SITL not depend on DCM 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell fb23c617fa Quaternion: added an AP_Quaternion library 
this is for experimenting with the Madgwick quaternion system, to see
if it is more or less noise sensitive than DCM
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a05eeab55e SITL: reduce the simulated compass offsets 
this was causing us problems in getting DCM right
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d03b11092b SITL: separate out drift speed and drift level 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 71d3847bfc SITL: added a drift_level multiplier 
this makes it easier to experiment with different gyro drift levels
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 61ebcfe9fe DCM: fixed the averaging of accel values for update_DCM_fast() 
this should improve drift correction for ArduCopter
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell de32c3bc31 AP_Math: added a .zero() method to Vector3f 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a0e2e69431 SITL: fixed delay() to account for signal interrupions 
when a timer went off we stopped the delay() code
 2012-03-10 10:34:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 37ab76c9e6 DCM_Test: fixed example code to work with SITL 
this also fixes the compass setup
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d2a969ee95 SITL: push noise level to 2.0 for DCM testing 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 79b8ddc236 DCM: added a small amount of accel smoothing to update_DCM_fast() 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 55413bfcc1 DCM: don't use the z accel sensor for drift correction 
the z accel is the noisest, and seems to do more harm than good. Using
just x and y is sufficient for drift correction by assuming the vector
length
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell a78b00513b DCM: added a small amount of gyro and accel smoothing 
possibly not needed, but convenient to be able to test with different
values
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 82032b17a9 DCM: added reporting interfaces for DCM state 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ae6a94a933 SITL: added sitl_simstate_send() 
used to report simulator state in logs
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d106e3a970 MAVLink: import new message types DCM, HWSTATUS and SIMSTATE 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 4e354a9731 DCM: got rid of _error_roll_pitch from object state 
this can be a local error variable in common with the yaw code. This
saves 12 bytes in the object.
 2012-03-10 10:34:27 +11:00
Jason Short 13e9608fb8 Consolidated Barometer pressure sensing to a single filter based on Randy's new filter class. 2012-03-08 23:13:04 -08:00
Jason Short 34cf1e8fb3 Updated on Barometer - increased the Temp filtering and decreased the pressure filtering to and get less temp noise, faster response from pressure. I'm filtering the Climb rate differently now, so this higher pressure noise should not hurt the derivative calcs at all now. 2012-03-06 20:55:35 -08:00
rmackay9 6c1299fe7e AP_RC - removed unused library 2012-03-04 18:21:52 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell dd9065123c SITL: use the new noise model 
use the new noise model at a low level for master until we sort out
DCM noise handling
 2012-03-02 18:31:07 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 63ea5dfb49 APM_RC: allow the fast RC speed to be passed as a parameter 
this will allow users to test different speeds
 2012-03-02 17:57:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f1a389fe19 AP_Param: ensure we can't have duplicate keys in Parameters.h 
this is O(n^2), but only at startup, and takes less than 1ms to run.
It catches a very nasty coding error
 2012-03-02 15:48:28 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1476f044e6 I2C: added lockup_count() interface 
used for reporting I2C problems
 2012-03-02 15:48:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c9031f1d36 SITL: implement cli()/sei() properly for desktop build 
this disables simulated hardware interrupts during critical sections
 2012-03-02 15:48:27 +11:00
Jason Short 59e1d43f60 Updated fastPWM to 490Hz 2012-02-29 22:17:38 -08:00
Pat Hickey 8fa559930f AP_Param: nested group recursion into next_group disableable by macro

 2012-02-29 18:48:54 -08:00
rmackay9 9832ac879e AP_Compass - fixed compile warning 2012-02-29 22:57:35 +09:00
rmackay9 0311b70004 AP_Baro - fixed small compiler warning to do with order of parameters in constructor 2012-02-29 22:46:29 +09:00
rmackay9 64f9f1d92e AP_Compass - fixed small compiler warning to do with order of parameters in constructor 2012-02-29 22:45:49 +09:00
rmackay9 7c1d1b45a7 AP_DCM - fixed small compiler warning to do with order of parameters in constructor 2012-02-29 22:45:26 +09:00
rmackay9 3cbd172ea9 RC_Channel - fixed small compiler warning 2012-02-29 22:44:29 +09:00
rmackay9 ced49f7d01 AP_ADC - removed small compiler warning 2012-02-29 22:43:46 +09:00
Pat Hickey 42078f2794 AP_Param: Make nested group recursion disableable by macro 
* Eliminates recursive calls inside AP_Param.
  This is important to Pat @ Galois, but not the project in general.
  Recursion depth on these functions is bounded structurally using
  existing nested group constructors (can't create loops in finite space)
  and checked at init time
 2012-02-28 16:28:27 -08:00
rmackay9 400a4b0bdb AP_RangeFinder - changed example sketch to work with new Filter library 2012-02-28 21:02:10 +09:00
rmackay9 5b89c65d9c Filter - updated example sketch to use modified library 2012-02-28 21:01:35 +09:00
rmackay9 d17a015df1 Filter - added AverageFilter, removed SumFilter 
added FilterWithBuffer to allow removal of malloc/free without losing ability to pass around filter objects
 2012-02-28 21:01:11 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 078268528e AP_Param: show numerical value in eeprom dump utility 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 701da6c30f AP_Param: fixed v.load() on a sub-element of a AP_Vector3f 
this isn't actually used at the moment in APM, but we should get it
right in case someone does try to load a single element of a vector
 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 34f1ebcfb4 SITL: simulate noise on each ADC channel separately 
scale the noise based on the period of the motors
 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 4cdc0a8c11 SITL: raise the ADC noise level to 8 bits when flying 
this is about the level of noise of a aircraft that has a lot of
vibration
 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b32701e008 IMU: removed unused accel_filtered code 2012-02-28 09:43:49 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell ac44b73951 AP_Param: fixed setting of CAM_P_G in ArduCopter 
the variable CAM_P_G has the same prefix as the CAM_P group. We want
to allow for parameters having a common prefix with a group, so we
need to keep searching after we've found a group that matches the
prefix
 2012-02-27 10:54:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7fe4a41c31 AP_Param: make the templating code a bit clearer 
add comments on the arguments, and name them in a clearer way
 2012-02-27 10:54:33 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5bf138fb38 DCM: fixed the sense of the compass GPS test in initial yaw 
we were only disabling null offsets when we didn't have a compass,
which doesn't make much sense!
 2012-02-26 22:24:45 +11:00
rmackay9 747e045193 ModeFilter - corrected shadowed variable compiler warning for drop_high_sample 2012-02-26 17:57:28 +09:00
rmackay9 e01477a7a8 Filter - added AverageFilter - this will be used in place of SumFilter because it removes the possibility of overflows 2012-02-26 17:34:36 +09:00
rmackay9 b345529241 Filter - removed shadowing of variables in constructors for Filter, ModeFilter and SumFilter (sorry tridge!) 
increased maximum sample buffer size from 6 to 10
 2012-02-26 17:17:46 +09:00
rmackay9 3f0d27ec87 ModeFilter - remove older ModeFilter library (new library is now in Filter directory) 2012-02-26 15:36:23 +09:00
rmackay9 00a1b5cd53 AP_RangeFinder - cut over to use new ModeFilter from Filter library 2012-02-26 15:34:50 +09:00
rmackay9 ae8fd43335 Filter - first version of filter library include ModeFilter 2012-02-26 15:34:05 +09:00
rmackay9 f6f05755d9 AP_Mount - #include FastSerial first to allow it to compile under Arduino 1.0 2012-02-26 15:31:56 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell bd2776aedd Compass: use constructor to set initial values for _learn and _use_for_yaw 
this ensures they are set if you have MAG_ENABLE==0
 2012-02-25 17:36:31 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 56bb74ef36 DCM: disable compass null offsets when setting initial yaw 
we need to ensure the compass null offsets code doesn't see a sudden
yaw change, or it will change the offsets by a large amount very
suddenly
 2012-02-25 16:02:24 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f50f4357ca Compass: catch the case of a user enabling a compass mid-flight 
if a compass has not been initialised at startup we can't enable it
mid-flight, as we don't have the orientation
 2012-02-25 14:51:09 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3abe035557 DCM: use the new use_for_yaw() compass method 2012-02-25 14:51:09 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c3319afadd Compass: added COMPASS_LEARN and COMPASS_USE parameters 
these allow you to control if the compass should be used for yaw and
if it should learn its offsets. This is useful for locking in compass
offsets once they are confirmed to be good, and for learning offsets
without using them in flights.

The default is to behave the same as previously, which is
COMPASS_LEARN=1 and COMPASS_USE=1
 2012-02-25 14:51:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 051bd78b37 AP_Param: added some comments on AP_Vector3f handling 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 3cf0eebac8 DCM: don't reset _have_initial_yaw for GPS heading unless very slow 
wait till we reach 1m/s before we reset _have_initial_yaw. This
prevents us continually resetting the DCM matrix if our ground speed
is close to 3m/s.
 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 007a6b8958 AP_Param: added special handling for Vector3f 
We would like to be able to use Vector3f as a parameter while exposing
the individual elements of the vector as MAVLink parameters. This
change to AP_Param makes that possible, by giving AP_Vector3f a dual
personality
 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1d95137b71 SITL: added -C option to desktop mode 
this allows running APM to stdout, which is useful for test sketches
 2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00
