The system-level calibration technology of rotational inertial navigation is one of the main methods to improve the accuracy of inertial navigation, and the design of the calibration scheme is the key to calibration technology. By the establishment of the error model of inertial navigation system, a 30-position calibration scheme is designed in this study. Based on the 30-dimensional Kalman filter, the constant errors, scale factor errors and installation error of gyroscope and accelerometer are identified. Comparing the traditional schemes and the 30-position scheme with the simulation experiment, the observability of the 30-position scheme is higher, the residual error of the estimated sensor is smaller and the navigation positioning accuracy after the estimated inertial sensor error parameter compensation is higher, which verifies the feasibility of the 30-position scheme. Finally, the measured experiment uses the 30-position scheme to estimate the error of a certain type of IMU sensor, and the calibration curve of the error parameter is well converged before the end of the calibration experiment, so it has certain practical value.
