Abstract

The mobile robot localization problem is decomposed into two stages: attitude estimation followed by position estimation. The innovation of this method is the use of a smoother, in the attitude estimation loop that outperforms other Kalman filter based techniques in estimate accuracy. This method is tested in simulation and the overall improvement in position estimation is demonstrated.
