Abstract Terrain Aided Navigation (TAN) technology has become increasingly important due to its effectiveness in environments where Global Positioning System (GPS) is unavailable. In recent years, TAN systems have been extensively researched for both aerial and underwater navigation applications. However, many TAN systems that rely on recursive Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) position estimation methods, such as Extended Kalman Filters (EKF), often face challenges with divergence and instability, particularly in highly non-linear systems. To address these issues, this paper proposes and investigates a hybrid two-stage TAN positioning system for UAVs that utilizes Particle Filter. To enhance the… More >
