摘      要：Based on the high positioning accuracy,low cost and low-power consumption,the ultra-wide-band(UWB)is an ideal solution for indoor unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)localization and ***,the UWB signals are easy to be blocked or reflected by obstacles such as walls and furniture.A resilient tightly-coupled inertial navigation system(INS)/UWB integration is proposed and implemented for indoor UAV navigation in this paper.A factor graph optimization(FGO)method enhanced by resilient stochastic model is established to cope with the indoor challenging *** deal with the impact of UWB non-line-of-sight(NLOS)signals and noise uncertainty,the conventional neural net-works(CNNs)are introduced into the stochastic modelling to improve the resilience and reliability of the *** on the status that the UWB features are limited,a‘two-phase CNNs structure was designed and implemented:one for signal classification and the other one for measurement noise *** proposed resilient FGO method is tested on flighting UAV platform under actual indoor challenging *** to classical FGO method,the overall positioning errors can be decreased from about 0.60 m to centimeter-level under signal block and reflection *** superiority of resilient FGO which effectively verified in constrained environment is pretty important for positioning accuracy and integrity for indoor navigation task.
