The annular ring is excited by two modified L-probes with quadrature phase difference. It has a 36.3% 10-dB return loss bandwidth and a 13% 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth, because of the orthogonal L-probes with 90° phase difference. The measured peak gain of the antenna is 3.9 dBic. It can detect the satellites at lower elevation as its half power beam-width （HPBW） is 113° in both the x-z and y-z planes, achieving a cross-polarization level of larger than 25 dB. Noticeably, the antenna achieves 89% size reduction compared with the conventional half wavelength patch antennas. It can be used in hand-held navigation devices of multiple GNSS such as COMPASS, Galileo, GPS and GLONASS.展开更多

With low cost, small size, ligh weight and low power consumtion, the MEMS （Micro-Electro-Mechanical System） IMU and low cost GPS （Global Positioning System） receivers are now the trend in research and using for many applications. However, researchs in the literature indicated that the the performance of the low cost INS/GPS systems is still poor, particularly, in case of GNSS-noise environment. To overcome this problem, this research applies analytic contrains including non-holonomic constraint and zero velocity update in the data fusion engine such as Extended Kalman Filter to improve the performance of the system. The benefit of the proposed method will be demonstrated through experiments and data analysis.展开更多
