Abstract:

When the robot works in an unknown environment, it is often affected by the external disturbance, which will make the localization failure based on the general
SLAM algorithm. To deal with this problem, an improved robust SLAM algorithm is proposed, to obtain a more accurate positioning result and reduce the effect of the external
disturbance, by adjusting the state prior estimate error co-variance and measurement noise co-variance of the system simultaneously. Finally, some simulation experiments are
conducted, the results show that the proposed algorithm can decrease the robot localization error more effectively under the environment with external disturbance, and the
performance of the proposed algorithm is superior to other algorithms.
