Abstract: A navigation system comprises a GNSS receiver that receives GNSS signals on multiple tracking channels, an INS that generates inertial data, and a processor. A micro jump detection and correction module comprises an oscillator micro jump detector that monitors estimates of C/N0 in all tracking channels, and detects a micro-jump event when there is an abrupt decrease of C/N0 in all tracking channels. An offsets module defines a plurality of carrier NCO command offsets to search over signal Dopplers in all available tracking channels after the micro jump event is detected, and sends the carrier NCO command offsets to the GNSS receiver to be added to nominal carrier NCO commands. The micro jump detector selects a tracking channel with the highest C/N0 after carrier NCO command offsets are added to nominal carrier NCO commands, computes corrections for clock error estimates, and sends the corrections for the clock error estimates to a GNSS/inertial Kalman filter.

Abstract: A novel system and method for detecting and recovering from single event upsets in integrating processing systems are presented. Two delta value processing lanes may be utilized to process raw data from inertial sensors. The output of the two processing lanes may be compared to detect the presence of an SEU. If an error is detected, a previously stored set of delta values may be utilized by the system. Additionally, the system may contain a temporary buffer to store calculated delta values in the event of a processor reset caused by an SEU or other error. The temporary buffer may store delta values accumulated during the processor reset and may furnish these stored delta values to the processor once it has finished resetting. The stored delta values may then be batch-processed and applied to system state values saved to memory prior to the processor reset.
