Artificial Neural Networks for Navigation Systems: A Review of Recent Research
Source abstract
Abstract
Several machine learning (ML) methodologies are gaining popularity as artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly prevalent. An artificial neural network (ANN) may be used as a “black-box” modeling strategy without the need for a detailed system physical model. It is more reasonable to solely use the input and output data to explain the system’s actions. ANNs have been extensively researched, as artificial intelligence has progressed to enhance navigation performance. In some circumstances, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) can offer consistent and dependable navigational options. A key advancement in contemporary navigation is the fusion of the GNSS and inertial navigation system (INS). Numerous strategies have been put out recently to increase the accuracy for jamming, GNSS-prohibited environments, the integration of GNSS/INS or other technologies by means of a Kalman filter as well as to solve the signal blockage issue in metropolitan areas. A neural-network-based fusion approach is suggested to address GNSS outages. The overview, inquiry, observation, and performance evaluation of the present integrated navigation systems are the primary objectives of the review. The important findings in ANN research for use in navigation systems are reviewed. Reviews of numerous studies that have been conducted to investigate, simulate, and integrate navigation systems in order to produce accurate and dependable navigation solutions are offered.
