Abstract

A localization system using GPS, ABS sensors and a driving wheel encoder is described and tested through real experiments. A new odometric technique using the four ABS sensors is presented. Due to the redundancy of measurements, the precision is better than the method using differential odometry on the rear wheels only. The sampling is performed when necessary and when a GPS measurement is performed. This implies a noticeable reduction of the GPS latency, simplifying the data-fusion process and improving the quality of its results.
