07. CTRV Zero Yaw Rate

CTRV Zero Yaw Rate

The CTRV model for your reference.

The CTRV model for your reference.

How should the process model change if the yaw rate, \dot{\psi_k} , is 0? Think it through for the first two components of the process model. (Why not the last three components? They all have the trivial solution of 0 when \dot{\psi_k} is 0.)

Question 1: How should we calculate the change in the x-position over time when \dot{\psi_k} = 0 ?

A. v_k cos(\psi_k) \Delta t

B. v_k tan(\psi_k) \Delta t

1) Which of the above (☝) options gives the change in x-position over time when the yaw rate is 0?

SOLUTION: A

Question 2: How should we calculate the change in the y-position over time when \dot{\psi_k} = 0 ?

A. v_k sin(\psi_k) \Delta t

B. v_k tan(\psi_k) \Delta t

2) Which of the above (☝) options gives the change in y-position over time when the yaw rate is 0?

SOLUTION: A
