EKF-SLAM algorithm for robot based on observability analysis

In order to solve the problem that the state estimation inconsistency exists in the traditional EKF SLAM （extended Kalman filter simultaneous localization and mapping） algorithm, an algorithm which could increase the observability constraint condition was proposed from the perspective of system observability. In addition, the compensation matrix was optimized to solve the constrained condition, and the new linear points were obtained. Through optimizing the Jacobi matrix of system, the observability matrix of system was reconstructed, which could make the rank of local observability matrix of EKF-SLAM system be consistent with that of non linear SLAM system. The results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the traditional EKF SLAM algorithm in terms of both state estimation accuracy and covariance consistency. The research work and conclusions have certain reference value for the vehicle autonomous driving.
