Abstract

The polarization-based attitude and heading reference system (PAHRS) consisting of inertial navigation system (INS) and polarization sensor (PS) offers an effective solution for attitude and heading determination in the case of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signal degradation. Its performance depends largely on the state estimation accuracy. In the existing work, the Kalman filtering (KF), as a low complexity scheme, is employed to achieve the state estimation of PAHRS. However, in practice, the performance of PAHRS could be affected by weather conditions and the maneuvering state of the vehicle. The accurate noise statistics of INS and PS is often encountered, which leads to a degradation of PAHRS. To improve the adaptability and accuracy of the system, in this article, we conduct a KF flow-based deep neural networks (KFDNNs), a real-time state estimator that learns from PS and INS data to carry out Kalman filter. In the constructed KFDNNs, deep neural networks (DNNs) are inserted into the flow of the KF to learn the optimal Kalman gain from PAHRS data, which we can retain data efficiency and interpretability of the classic algorithm while circumvents the dependency of the KF on knowledge of the noise statistics. Moreover, a two-stage training strategy consisting of warm-up training stage and task-oriented training stage is presented for the KFDNNs, which mitigate the gradient explosion caused by the unstable random initialization of KFDNNs while improve the flexibility of sequence length selection. Finally, the simulation and vehicle test are carried to verify the performance of PAHRS. The experimental results confirm the KFDNNs outperforms KF-based INS/PS method especially in complex weather and maneuvering scenarios.
