I have writen the Kalman filter codes in C on my MCU LPC2114 ,but it seems that my MCU is not strong enough to run the codes. My 12 states SINS/GPS integration system can not work correctly, and the time the filter costs is too long.
Has any body ever did the same work?
I don't see the point of using a Kalman filter if you assume the noise variances to be constant. The Kalman gain coefficients K_0 and K_1 converge to constant values in this case, since they don't depend on any measurement. So instead you can reduce the filter of the (matlab-) example to :
You omit all P-stuff and the CPU intensive divisions by S that way. Moreover the gain doesn't need to converge.
I think Kalman filtering is only useful in this context if the variances are continuously monitored and evolving over time (for example, R_angle could be increased during accelerations, turns or at resonance frequencies of the engine). But this isn't that easy.
So I believe the title of this post aptly applies to me!! I pirated your code and matlab'ed it and let me say, WOW! So, what's the next step from here? I suppose that it is not as simple as running two independent loops for pitch and roll. Any further advice on how to proceed?
Hi!!, i implement this code in the Mc and i mounted on the airplane.... the x axis of the accelerometer is pointing to the airplane nose so... when the airplane starts to run the angle drifts as the ariplane accelerate... can i solve this problem with kalman filter o what i shoul use....
Q_angle and Q_gyro are inverse of standard deviation?
R_angle is convergence factor, the smaller - the faster we converge from gyro towards accelerometer angle?
I see no problems for it to work with degrees... right?

x_angle(i) = x_angle(i) + dt*(gyro_angle(i-1)-x_bias(i-1));
y(i) = acc_angle(i)-x_angle(i);
x_angle(i+1) = x_angle(i)+0.0233*y(i);
x_bias(i+1) = x_bias(i)-0.0209*y(i);

Pls!!! Help!!!
