This paper describes the synthesis and evaluation of a novel state estimator for a Quadrotor Micro Aerial Vehicle. Dynamic equations which relate acceleration, attitude and the aero-dynamic propeller drag are encapsulated in an extended…
The paper proposes a technique to estimate the angular velocity of a rigid body from vector measurements. Compared to the approaches presented in the literature, it does not use attitude information nor rate gyros as inputs. Instead, vector…
This paper concerns the problem of attitude determination and estimation. The early applications considered algebraic methods of attitude determination. Attitude determination algorithms were supplanted by the Gaussian attitude estimation…
Stochastic filters for on-line state estimation are a core technology for autonomous systems. The performance of such filters is one of the key limiting factors to a system's capability. Both asymptotic behavior (e.g.,~for regular…
A continuous solution is proposed to the problem of uniform global exponential estimation of the angular velocity for rigid bodies by means of direct attitude measurements. The proposed observer is designed on…
Dynamic state estimation, as opposed to kinematic state estimation, seeks to estimate not only the orientation of a rigid body but also its angular velocity, through Euler's equations of rotational motion. This paper demonstrates that the…
We address the problem of attitude stabilization of a rigid body, in which neither the angular velocity nor the instantaneous measurements of the attitude are used in the feedback, only body vector measurements are needed. The design of the…
This paper addresses state estimation of linear systems with special attention on unknown process and measurement noise covariances, aiming to enhance estimation accuracy while preserving the stability guarantee of the Kalman filter. To…
The paper addresses the problem of attitude estimation for rigid bodies using (possibly time-varying) vector measurements, for which we provide a necessary and sufficient condition of distinguishability. Such a condition is shown to be…
Accurate and robust attitude estimation is a central challenge for autonomous vehicles operating in GNSS-denied or highly dynamic environments. In such cases, Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) alone are insufficient for reliable tilt…

This paper introduces a new invariant extended Kalman filter design that produces real-time state estimates and rapid error convergence for the estimation of the human body movement even in the presence of sensor misalignment and initial…
This work aims to present a three-dimensional vehicle dynamics state estimation under varying signal quality. Few researchers have investigated the impact of three-dimensional road geometries on the state estimation and, thus, neglect road…
The rigid-body attitude tracking using vector and biased gyro measurements with unknown inertia matrix is studied in this note. First, a gyro-bias observer with global exponential stability is designed. Then, an attitude tracking controller…
State estimation of dynamical systems is crucial for providing new decision-making and system automation information in different applications. However, the assumptions on the standard computational models for sensor measurements can be…
The existing attitude controllers (without angular velocity measurements) involve explicitly the orientation (\textit{e.g.,} the unit-quaternion) in the feedback. Unfortunately, there does not exist any sensor that directly measures the…
The paper proposes a technique to estimate the angular velocity of a rigid body from single vector measurements. Compared to the approaches presented in the literature, it does not use attitude information nor rate gyros as inputs. Instead,…
We propose an attitude and gyro-bias estimation scheme for accelerated rigid body systems using an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a global positioning system (GPS). The proposed scheme allows to obtain attitude estimates directly on…
This paper proposes two novel nonlinear attitude filters evolved directly on the Special Orthogonal Group SO(3) able to ensure prescribed measures of transient and steady-state performance. The tracking performance of the normalized…
