Paul Riseborough 934890c2df EKF: Add validity flag to ekf origin reporting

Paul Riseborough 1b59a89a18 EKF: save some stack memory 2016-11-02 09:06:06 +01:00
Beat Küng 25cb400da9 EKF: remove Ekf::KHP and move KHP to the methods where it's used
Everywhere where KHP is used, it is first completely reset, thus making
it unnecessary to keep it as a class member.

This saves 2.3KB RAM.

Stack sizes don't need changing, since there is already a function
Ekf::predictCovariance(), which needs around 3KB of stack and is called
close to where the fuse* functions are called.

Paul Riseborough 7bc9217f00 EKF: Clean up control of observation fusion
All the decision for a sensor are made within a specific function for that sensor and when there is data to process at the fusion time horizon.
Information and warning messages are improved.

Paul Riseborough 99b34f0df4 EKF: Only reset necessary terms when mag fusion covariance reset required
Only the quaternion and mag fusion state covariances are used in the mag fusion calculations.

Paul Riseborough 081e17729c EKF: delay commencement of 3D mag fusion until clear of ground
Wait until enough height has been gained to be clear of ground based magnetic anomalies. Failure to do so can result in incorrect earth field initialisation.

Paul Riseborough 6a55d908c5 EKF: replace reset event times with event counters
Using a 64bit integer was unnecessary given it was only being used to detect a new reset event.

Paul Riseborough c7e225124c EKF: Improve output observer position and velocity tracking
Replace the delayed time feedback mechanism used by the translational states with a direct feedback method.
Time constants for velocity and position convergence can be separately adjusted with tunable parameters
The method is more computationally more expensive because it requires modification of the output buffer history but is acceptable because it only requires 6 FLOP per buffer index for a total of 30*6 = 180 FLOP
The method was not applied to the attitude states because the quaternion operations required at each buffer index would have been computationally prohibitive.

Paul Riseborough 7f5669fb2d EKF: consolidate covariance corrections
Combines the forced symmetry, variance limiting and zeroing of covariances for unwanted states in the one function.
This ensures a consistent correction is applied after every covariance prediction or correction.

Paul Riseborough f1b7e7714e EKF: Make average update rate of EKF closer to target
With the EKF, the average update rate is more important than the instantaneous value as it affects tuning. This patch ensures that the EKF prediction cycle will be performed early if the previous one was late in an attempt to maintain the target update rate.
