If a single sensor is fitted, the calculation is not performed and zero values are published.
If dual IMU's are fitted, the vector length difference between the primary IMU and the second sensor is output for the angular rates and accelerations. The vector difference is low pass filtered before the length is taken.
If three IMU's are fitted, the vector length is calculated for both alternative sensors and and the maximum values output.
Fourth and subsequent IMU's are ignored.
<systemlib/err.h> --> "systemlib/err.h" that fix_headers.sh
would miss because it comes after code it doesn't understand.
Effectively remove the '__EXPORT extern perf_counter_t perf_alloc('
line, because currently perf_alloc is defined to be NULL, and
after running fix_headers.sh that happens *before* this header
is included (the order of headers will be changed).
Do not define NULL to be (void*)0: that only works for C.
In fact, the conversions needed for NULL are so full of exceptions
that standard C++ introduced a new *keyword*: nullptr.
That's what we really should be using for C++ code.
In this case I just include the correct header to define NULL
the correct way.
Not really related to the header line:
Removed an #include <time.h> because I noted that px4_time.h
was already included... and moved a #include <sys/time.h>
to the top of the file (not really a fan of including headers
in the middle unless absolutely necessary).
Removed a include of queue.h because I noted it wasn't used.
These headers files were missing from the header files that
I added them to; the fact that they were missing didn't
lead to compile errors because by coincidence the missing
headers are included in the source files before including
these headers. But, after the reordering of header inclusions
by Tools/fix_headers.sh, these cases will give rise to compiler
errors.
Displaying the RMS innovation values at the end of each replay assets with rapid iteration for time delay parameter tuning without having to plot or post process using another tool.
Baro data arriving too soon after the last measurement due to a high sampling rate or timing jitter is rejected inside the ecl EKF to prevent the data buffer overflowing.
This patch checks the timestamp difference from the last measurement, and if to small, the data is accumulated and the average sent to the EKF when the time delta
is acceptable.
Fixes:
1) Invalid data with a zero time stamp could be the EKF ends up in the data buffers and result in loss of 'good' data from the buffers
2) Magnetometer data was arriving at a rate faster than the data buffers could handle resulting in loss of data.
