Book excerpt: Descripción dele ditor: "The subject of integrated navigation systems covered in this book is designed for those directly involved with the design, integration, and test and evaluation of navigation systems. It is assumed that the reader has a background in mathematics, including calculus. Integrated navigation systems are the combination of an onboard navigation solution (position, velocity, and attitude) and independent navigation data (aids to navigation) to update or correct navigation solutions. In this book, this combination is accomplished with Kalman filter algorithms. Elements of basic mathematics, kinematics, equations describing navigation systems/sensors and their error models, aids to navigation, and Kalman filtering are developed. Detailed derivations are presented and examples are given to aid in the understanding of these elements of integrated navigation systems. Problems are included to expand the application of the materials presented. The third edition includes additional background material, exercises and software. The added material includes: development of general form for Earth's gravitational potential with simplification to an ellipsoid model; development of satellite orbital equations for position and velocity and the impact of non-spherical earth gravitation on satellite orbital parameters; and illustrations in the development of derivative-free Kalman filters including the Unscented and Divided Difference filter forms. Additional exercises are included that expand and supplement the material in the text and demonstrate properties of the Kalman filter. Additional software is included in this edition for simulating random processes and derivative-free filter implementations. This edition provides a more complete foundation for addressing the different aspects of integrated navigation systems.This BookApplied Mathematics in Integrated Navigation Systems, Third Edition coverCopyright © 2007 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc.https://doi.org/10.2514/4.861598Supplemental MaterialsPricesHardbackMember: $74.95List: $94.95Not an AIAA Member?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated Aircraft Navigation discusses the fundamentals of navigation systems analysis. Modern aircraft navigation systems are characterized by a multifaceted, computer-oriented approach, covering various branches of theoretical dynamics, inertial measurements, radar, radio navaids, celestial observations, and widely used statistical estimation techniques. Each pertinent field entails much technological development that is not essential for applied systems analysis. The book presents pertinent information extracted from a broad range of topics, expressed in terms of Newtonian physics and matrix-vector mathematics. The book begins by defining basic navigation quantities and functions, and introducing various subjects as an aid to subsequent developments. These include basic motion patterns, navigation coordinate frames, and navigation techniques and requirements. This is followed by separate chapters on coordinate transformations and kinematics; inertial navigation theory; the physics of inertial measurements; and navigation with multiple sensors. Subsequent chapters deal with dynamic equations for all navigation modes considered; functional relationships and practical considerations for the various navigation aid sensors in common usage; and system applications. This book will be useful to the student or practicing engineer who wants a valid analytical characterization, using the simplest theoretical concepts permissible, while omitting specialized mechanization details.
