文摘The IMU（inertial measurement unit） error equations in the earth fixed coordinates are introduced firstly. A fading Kalman filtering is simply introduced and its shortcomings are analyzed, then an adaptive filtering is applied in IMU/GPS integrated navigation system, in which the adaptive factor is replaced by the fading factor. A practical example is given. The resuits prove that the adaptive filter combined with the fading factor is valid and reliable when applied in IMU/GPS integrated navigation system.
