Rotation matrix’s representation with the unit quaternion has no singular points, so the unit quaternion-based estimation method is of more practical importance, and the algorithm in this paper does not need iteration computation compared to those unit quaternion-based methods proposed by Horn(1987) and Su, et al.(1989). Solution’s uniqueness analysis of the algorithm and simulation experiment results are also presented, it can be seen that performance of our method is satisfactory.展开更多

But how to remove its systematic error is a difficult problem, which impacts the improvement of resolution in azimuth. The technique of motion compensation presented in this paper, uses the GPS as a reference system to estimate and correct the systematic error of the IMU on the concept of linear unbiased minimum variance (LUMV). This new and effective method achieves very accurate position measurement (both high and low frequency) of the APC in not only short but also long terms, so that it can satisfy the requirement of high resolution airborne SAR. In the last section of the paper, some experimental simulations from raw data are given.展开更多
