MULTI-SENSOR BASED ADAPTIVE FUSION SCHEME FOR POSITION ESTIMATION OF MULTIROTOR UAV SYSTEMS IN GPS-DENIED ENVIRONMENTS

L. Busse¹, M. Kumar¹; ¹University of Cincinnati, United States

Integrating onboard sensors into UAV navigation is crucial for the ability of operating in GPS-denied environments to further expand their use. This work developed a novel method of utilizing highly accurate LiDAR rather than traditional cameras while also considering the inherent vibrations present in the system. This approach is highly relevant for operation in urban and indoor areas.
