Abstract
A method and system for initializing a sensor fusion system is disclosed, wherein the sensor fusion system includes a base system and at least one correction system. Measured values are captured by the base system and by the correction system, and the measured values directly or indirectly describing physical quantities are afflicted with error values. The error values describe deviations of the measured values from the described physical quantities, and at least the physical quantities indirectly described in the measured values of the base system and the error values of the physical quantities cannot be determined during initialization. The measured values are continuously fused into a fusion data set after initialization. For at least one of the physical quantities associated with the measured values of the base system and the error values of the physical quantities, starting values are determined from the measured values of the correction system.
