Optimizing MEMS IMU data coherence and timing in navigation systems

November 25, 2024

Systems developers can use certain techniques to manage the gap between slow/asynchronous computing loops and high-performance data capture and processing in MEMS IMUs [micro-electromechanical system inertial measurement units] (MEMS IMUs >2000 Hz). Quick prototyping that provides time-relevant representation of MEM IMU responses will be an important step for defense-industry autonomous vehicle (AV) developers, who are seeking to manage both expansion of their mission profiles, along with the increasingly serious threats to their existing position, navigation, and timing (PNT) services.
