% Derivation of a navigation EKF using a local NED earth Tangent Frame for
% the initial alignment and gyro bias estimation from a moving platform
% Uses quaternions for attitude propagation
% State vector:
% quaternions
% Velocity - North, East, Down (m/s)
% Delta Angle bias - X,Y,Z (rad)
% Observations:
% NED velocity - N,E,D (m/s)
% body fixed magnetic field vector - X,Y,Z
% Time varying parameters:
% XYZ delta angle measurements in body axes - rad
% XYZ delta velocity measurements in body axes - m/sec
% magnetic declination
