An updated guide to Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), Inertial Navigational Systems (INS), and their integration with Kalman filtering, this third edition by Mohinder S. Grewal offers a comprehensive resource for engineers, computer scientists, and professionals interested in the theory and practical applications of these systems. The book provides a working familiarity with GNSS and INS, emphasizing real-world problem-solving techniques, particularly focusing on state-of-the-art integration methods such as Kalman filtering.
Throughout the text, readers will encounter detailed explanations of various subtleties, common failures, and inherent limitations of the theory in practical applications. The authors, recognized authorities in their field, include numerous application examples and practice problems, covering topics such as GNSS-aided INS (both tightly and loosely coupled), modeling of gyros and accelerometers, and Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) and Ground Based Augmentation Systems (GBAS).
Based on the authors’ extensive experience with GNSS, INS, and Kalman filtering, this edition features new content on recent upgrades in existing systems and expanded coverage of basic principles and practical solutions for antenna design. This book is essential reading for professionals seeking to enhance their understanding and application of GNSS and INS technologies.
Key Features:
- Updates on the latest developments in GNSS and other related systems
- Expanded coverage of antenna design principles and practical solutions
- Insightful exploration of real-world issues, common failures, and limitations
- Multitude of application examples and practice problems for hands-on learning
- Accessible to both beginners and advanced practitioners in the field
With its focus on practical solutions and extensive coverage of contemporary applications, this third edition is an invaluable resource for anyone working with GNSS, INS, or related technologies.
