Helen V. Younskevicius has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Enhanced inertial system performance
    Patent number: 8185309
    Abstract: An inertial system is provided. The system includes at least one inertial sensor, a processing unit and a plurality of Kalman filters implemented in the processing unit. The Kalman filters receive information from the at least one inertial sensor. At most one of the plurality of Kalman filters has processed zero velocity updates on the last cycle.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 14, 2010
    Date of Patent: May 22, 2012
    Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.
    Inventors: Kenneth S. Morgan, Helen V. Younskevicius

  • Enhanced inertial system performance
    Patent number: 7860651
    Abstract: An inertial system is provided. The system includes at least one inertial sensor, a processing unit and a plurality of Kalman filters implemented in the processing unit. The Kalman filters receive information from the at least one inertial sensor, and at most one of the plurality of Kalman filters has processed zero velocity updates on the last cycle. The plurality of Kalman filters is used to optimize system response and performance during periods of intermittent motion.
