Abstract:

Aiming at the situation that the probability distribution of the fiber-optical gyrocompass error does not conform to the Gaussian distribution, a modeling method of the fiber-optical gyrocompass error probability distribution function (PDF) based on the Gaussian mixture models (GMM) is proposed. The method uses linear superposition of the multiple Gaussian distributions to fit the probability distribution of fiber-optical gyrocompass errors, and combines a robust expectation maximization (EM) algorithm to estimate the parameters in the GMM. Through simulation analysis and verification of the test data, compared with using a single Gaussian distribution, the error probability distribution based on the proposed method is more consistent with the actual probability distribution of the navigation equipment error.

Key words: Gaussian mixture model (GMM), expectation maximization (EM), fiber-optic gyrocompass, probability distribution function (PDF)
