Fundamentals of inertial navigation, satellite-based positioning and their integration

Fundamentals of Inertial Navigation, Satellite Positioning and their Integration is an introduction to the field of Integrated Navigation Systems. It serves as an excellent reference for working engineers as well as textbook for beginners and students new to the area. The book is easy to read with minimum background knowledge. The authors explain the derivations in great detail. The intermediate steps are thoroughly explained so that a beginner can easily follow the material. The book shows a step-by-step implementation and provides all the necessary details. It covers only relevant material and uses detailed illustrations for an easy comprehension. .The book also demonstrates real field experiments and in-vehicle road test results with professional discussions and analysis. This work is unique in discussing the different INS/GPS integration schemes in a very transparent and straightforward way. Those schemes include loosely vs tightly coupled, open loop vs closed loop, and many more. .
