Prominent nonlinear estimators in this field are the Kalman Filters (KF) and Particle Filters (PF). The main objective of this research is the comparative study of the well-established filtering methods of EKF, UKF and the PF based on EKF and UKF in INS-GPS integrated navigation system. Different features of INS-GPS integrated navigation methods in the state estimation, bias estimation and bias/scale factor estimation are investigated by using these four filtering algorithms. Both ground-vehicle experimental test and flight simulation test have been utilized to evaluate the filters performance}, keywords = {Extended Kalman Filter (EKF),Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF),Extended Particle Filter (EPF),Unscented Particle Filter (UPF)}, url = {https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4328.html}, eprint = {https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4328_f86aea8d98c12620e90fa5f30bc35077.pdf} }
