Compiled by leading authorities, Aerospace Navigation Systems is a compendium of chapters that present modern aircraft and spacecraft navigation methods based on up-to-date inertial, satellite, map matching and other guidance techniques. Ranging from the practical to the theoretical, this book covers navigational applications over a wide range of aerospace vehicles including aircraft, spacecraft and drones, both remotely controlled and operating as autonomous vehicles. It provides a comprehensive background of fundamental theory, the utilisation of newly-developed techniques, incorporates the most complex and advanced types of technical innovation currently available and presents a vision for future developments. Satellite Navigation Systems (SNS), long range navigation systems, short range navigation systems and navigational displays are introduced, and many other detailed topics include Radio Navigation Systems (RNS), Inertial Navigation Systems (INS), Homing Systems, Map Matching and other correlated-extremalsystems, and both optimal and sub-optimal filtering in integrated navigation systems.
Aircraft Communications and Navigation Systems
Introducing the principles of communications and navigation systems, this book is written for anyone pursuing a career in aircraft maintenance engineering or a related aerospace engineering discipline, and in particular will be suitable for those studying for licensed aircraft maintenance engineer status. It systematically addresses the relevant sections (Air Transport Association of America chapters 23/34) of modules 11 and 13 of part-66 of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) syllabus and is ideal for anyone studying as part of an EASA and FAR-147-approved course in aerospace engineering. Delivers the essential principles and knowledge base required by Airframe and Propulsion (A&P) Mechanics for Modules 11 and 13 of the EASA Part-66 syllabus and BTEC National awards in aerospace engineering Supports mechanics, technicians and engineers studying for a Part-66 qualification Comprehensive and accessible, with self-test questions, exercises and multiple choice questions to enhance learning for both independent and tutor-assisted study Additional resources and interactive materials are available at the book's companion website at www.66web.co.uk This new and updated third edition provides readers with an overview of the latest key technologies that underpin the functioning of safety-critical systems such as those used in flight management, reporting, navigation, and air traffic control.
Aerospace Navigation Systems
Aerospace craft are the only vehicles having motion in 3D space with intensive dynamics, making it necessary to control such vehicles in 6D motion (linear and angular). Navigating with these spatial constraints, in all kinds of weather and environments requires complex and highly reliable controls and systems. This new book explains the latest in electronic navigation for aerospace vehicles, including the latest in use of satellite communications and GPS navigation. It offers a particular focus on different kinds of radio-navigation and guidance systems for aeronautical and space vehicles that may be used for motion control, together with other aerospace sensors (described in the MP book Aerospace Sensors) . Aerospace engineers in both design and research will find this book to be an invaluable, comprehensive introduction to the very latest technologies in motion control for all types of aerospace vehicles, from aircraft, to unmanned aerospace vehicles, to missiles, and to spacecraft. Highlights include coverage of * Radio Systems for Long-Range Navigation and Short-Range navigation * Radio-based Technical Landing systems * Satellite Navigation Systems * Map-matching systems * Correlated-external Systems and Sensors * Homing Devices * Inertial Navigation Systems, using gyroscope and accelerometer integration
