Abstract

For analyzing the random error coefficients of inertial measurement units(IMU),the Allan variance method is studied.For large data set processing,a simplified Allan variance algorithm which can both reduce the calculation burden and keep the accuracy of the results is proposed.The proposed algorithm is used to analyze the long-term static data collected from a micro-electro-mechanical systems(MEMS)IMU.Results demonstrate that the proposed simplified Allan variance method can effectively recognize the error coefficients of the IMU.
