Abstract:

Redundant technology plays an important role in improving the reliability and fault-tolerance of the airborne avionics systems. A Markov state transition model is introduced to the reliability analysis of the redundant inertial navigation system (RINS) in airborne navigation systems. An information processing mechanism based on difference filtering is put forward to strengthen the consistency between the outputs of the equal-precision inertial navigation system (INS). On this basis, the homologous fault monitoring algorithm is designed to realize the homologous fault monitoring of RINS. The simulation is carried out based on the above algorithms, and the results verify the effectiveness of the proposed fault monitoring algorithm based on difference filtering. Research results have good reference value for the configuration and design of RINS in airborne integrated avionics systems.
