Summary: | High-precision navigation of the underground excavating machine is the core of realizing safe excavating and autonomous control, but it is difficult to realize high-precision navigation for the underground excavating machine. The integration of GNSS and inertial navigation system are generally adopted for the high-precision navigation of the ground equipment, which can provide high-precision navigation for a long time. However, the GNSS signals cannot be used in underground operation, so the navigation scheme applied to the ground cannot be used underground. At the same time, the velocity of the underground excavation machine is very slow and the operation time is very long, which makes it impossible to use pure inertial navigation scheme for navigation. Because the inertial navigation error accumulates with time, if the operation time is too long, the navigation accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The integration of inertial navigation and odometer is considered as a reliable scheme, but simulation and experimental analysis show that the traditional integration of inertial navigation and odometer cannot meet the operation requirements of the underground excavating machine in the presence of serious slipping and measurement noises. This paper proposes an integration of fully damped inertial navigation/odometer to provide long-term high-precision orientation navigation information for mining equipment. The advantage of the fully damped inertial navigation/odometer integration approach is that it can maintain high accuracy of orientation measurement in one week or longer under the condition of sensor drift error and odometer measurement error. Simulation and field tests are carried out to validate the performance of the proposed approach. |
