Method and device for determining navigation data
First Claim
1. A method for determining navigation data, comprising:
- determining positional angle measurement values with a first navigation device; and
initializing a second navigation device with the positional angle measurement values determined by the first navigation device, whereinrotation rate and acceleration measurement values for determining the positional angle measurement values are supplied to the first navigation device and the second navigation device from a sensor unit;
whereinthe first navigation device carries out erroneous measurements of the positional angle measurement values with a probability that is smaller than a predetermined positional angle error rate;
the second navigation device carries out erroneous measurements of the positional angle measurement values with a probability that is larger than the predetermined positional angle error rate;
an erroneous measurement of the positional angle measurement values occurs when one of the determined positional angle measurement values deviates by more than a predetermined positional angle tolerance value from a respective positional angle reference value; and
no erroneous measurement of the positional angle measurement values occurs when none of the determined positional angle measurement values deviates by more than the predetermined positional angle tolerance value from the respective positional angle reference value.

Abstract
In a method for determining navigation data, positional angle measurement values are determined using a first navigation device (310). A second navigation device (320) is then initialized using the positional angle measurement values determined by the first navigation device (310). Both navigation devices are supplied with rotational rate and acceleration measurement values from a common sensor unit in order to determine the positional angle measurement values. In the process, the first navigation device (310) produces erroneous measurements of the positional angle measurement values with a probability which is lower than as specified positional angle error rate, and the second navigation device (320) produces erroneous measurements of the positional angle measurement values with a probability which is higher than the specified positional angle error rate. An erroneous measurement of the positional angle measurement values is present if one of the determined positional angle measurement values deviates from a corresponding positional angle reference value by more than a specified positional angle tolerance value.
