Development of Altitude Determination System by Using GPS/INS/Baroaltimeter

This paper introduces an altitude determination algorithm using GPS/INS/Baroaltimeter and evaluates the algorithm by real field tests. The test results show that the proposed method can determine the altitude of an aircraft continuously and sensitively. Therefore, it is appropriate to be used as an altimeter for a flight control system, especially for the automatic take-off and landing. In addition, it is shown that the second and the third baro-inertial vertical channel damping methods are essentially complementary filters while the proposed scheme improves these complementary filters.棜?⨀ᔌ툀؀㌸㜮ㄻ
