Autonomous driving is an important trend of the automotive industry. The continuous research towards this goal requires a precise reference vehicle state estimation under all circumstances in order to develop and test autonomous vehicle functions. However, even when lane-accurate positioning is expected from oncoming technologies, like the L5 GPS band, the question of accurate positioning in roofed areas, e. g., tunnels or park houses, still has to be addressed. In this paper, a novel procedure for a reference vehicle state estimation is presented. The procedure includes three main components. First, a robust standstill detection based purely on signals from an Inertial Measurement Unit. Second, a vehicle state estimation by means of statistical filtering. Third, a high accuracy LiDAR-based positioning method that delivers velocity, position and orientation correction data with a mean error of 0.1 m/s, 4.7 cm and 1^∘ respectively. Runtime tests on a CPU indicates the possibility of real-time implementation.
