Asychronous [i.e. asynchronous] data fusion for AUV navigation using extended Kalman filtering.

A truly Autonomous Vehicle must be able to determine its global position in the absence of external transmitting devices. This requires the optimal integration of all available organic vehicle attitude and velocity sensors. This thesis investigates the extended Kalman filtering method to merge async...
