Position and orientation system (POS) is a key technology widely used in remote sensing applications, which integrates inertial navigation system (INS) and GPS using a Kalman filter (KF) to provide high-accuracy position, velocity, and attitude information for remote sensing motion compensation. However, when GPS signal is blocked, the POS accuracy will decrease owing to the unbounded INS error accumulation. To improve the reliability and accuracy of POS, this paper proposes a hybrid prediction method for bridging GPS outages. This method uses radial basis RBF) neural network coupled with time series analysis to forecast the measurement update of KF, resulting in reliable performance during GPS outages. In verifying the proposed hybrid prediction method, a flight experiment was conducted in 2011, based on a high-precision Laser POS. Experimental results show that the proposed hybrid prediction method is more effective than two other methods (KF and RBF neural network).
