Design and construction of autonomous real-time position prototype based on multi-polarized skylight
In order to improve the reliability and real-time performance of polarized skylight navigation
a independent position method based on multi-polarized lights was proposed and a navigation prototype was constructed. The prototype included five polarized light sensors
which were arranged in multi-direction array for the detection of polarization information in multiple directions of the sky. With the polarization information optimized and converged
the sun spatial position information was calculated more reliably and accurately. Finally
the position information of the prototype was determined according to the sun spatial position information
the time and the geomagnetic field information
thus realizing real-time position. The PC program of the prototype completed by LabVIEW can collect and process the date from the sensors in real time
meanwhile calculate and display the longitude and latitude of the location of the prototype synchronously
with a data update rate up to 10 Hz. The test results show that position accuracies are±0.4° and±1.2° in longitude and latitude respectively
which indicate that the navigation prototype is feasible and stable and can be applied to real navigations.
