  • Patent number: 11598886
    Abstract: A GNSS/IMU-based tilt measurement system includes a GNSS/IMU receiver. The GNSS/IMU receiver includes a GNSS antenna, a GNSS positioning board, an IMU inertial sensor and a position transfer device. The GNSS antenna is configured to receive a satellite navigation positioning signal. The GNSS positioning board is configured to calculate coordinates of the phase center of the GNSS antenna according to a signal received by the GNSS antenna and use the coordinates of the phase center as reference coordinates for measuring a relative position point. The IMU inertial sensor is configured to measure the acceleration and the angular velocity of the receiver. The relative position transfer medium is configured to connect the reference coordinates and the coordinates of the relative position point to be measured. The position transfer device is configured to implement the measurement function of the relative position point.

  • Patent number: 10591295
    Abstract: A tilt measurement method for an RTK measuring receiver includes the following steps: step S1: fixing the bottom of a centering rod and performing a measurement after an inclination and shake; step S2: obtaining a measurement point sequence, a measurement point tilt sequence, a length of the centering rod, and a height of an antenna phase center based on the measurement; step S3: obtaining a positioning quality threshold and a geodetic coordinate of the to-be-measured point based on values obtained from the measurement; and step S4: determining whether the positioning quality threshold meets a requirement or not to decide whether to finish the measurement or not. In the method, the position of a to-be-measured point is calculated according to the position and the tilt angle of the antenna phase center of the receiver, and the length of the centering rod etc. during multiple tilt measurements.
