Popis: In many redundant inertial sensor applications, the primary goal is absolute tolerance to some specified number of failures. To achieve this tolerance, a sufficient performance margin must be provided to cover the worst-case degradation that can occur. The worst-case degradation depends upon the particular algorithm used. An optimal algorithm can be defined implicitly by taking that value which minimizes an appropriately chosen worst-case performance index as the estimate. In the important case of first-failure tolerance with five skewed sensors, a simple realization has been discovered which is the direct generalization of midvalue selection to three dimensions.
