Abstract: A method for visual inertial odometry (VIO)-aided global positioning is described. The method includes updating an extended Kalman filter (EKF) state including a current pose and a sliding window of multiple prior poses. The sliding window includes poses at a number of most recent global positioning system (GPS) time epochs. Updating the EKF includes updating an EKF covariance matrix for the prior poses and the current pose in the EKF state. The method also includes determining, at a GPS epoch, a relative displacement between each of the updated prior poses and the current pose. The method further includes determining an error covariance of each of the relative displacements based on cross-covariances between each of the updated prior poses and the current pose in the EKF covariance matrix. The method additionally includes using the relative displacements and the error covariances to fuse pseudorange measurements taken over multiple epochs.

Abstract: A device for encoding point cloud data, the device comprising: a memory to store the point cloud data; and one or more processors coupled to the memory and implemented in circuitry, the one or more processors configured to identify a first set of global motion parameters from global positioning system information. The one or more processors are further configured to determine, based on the first set of global motion parameters, a second set of global motion parameters to be used for global motion estimation for a current frame and apply, based on the second set of global motion parameters, motion compensation to a reference frame to generate a global motion compensated frame for the current frame.
