Popis: Abstract Angular random walk (ARW), rate random walk (RRW), and bias instability (BI) are the main noise types in inertial measurement units (IMUs) and thus determine the navigation performance of IMUs. BI is the flicker noise, which determines the noise level of an inertial sensor. The traditional error modeling approach involves modeling the ARW and BI processes as RRW or Gauss–Markov (GM) processes, and this approach is applied as a suboptimal filter in the global navigation satellite system (GNSS)/inertial navigation system (INS) extended Kalman filter (EKF). In this paper, the random error identification processes for white noise and colored noise for inertial sensors are separated using the Allan variance and power spectral density methods and the equivalence of the stochastic process differential equations of bias instability and a combination of multiple first-order GM processes are derived. A colored noise compensation method is proposed based on the enhanced EKF model. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared to traditional error models, our proposed model reduces positional drift error in dynamic testing from 195 to 49 m, enhancing positional accuracy by 40.2%. These findings confirm the potential and superiority of our method in complex navigation environments.
