About Avionics Navigation Systems
Product Description An indispensable resource for all those who design, build, manage,and operate electronic navigation systems Avionics Navigation Systems, Second Edition, is a complete guide tothe art and science of modern electronic navigation, focusing onaircraft. It covers electronic navigation systems in civil andmilitary aircraft, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, andmanned spacecraft. It has been thoroughly updated and expanded toinclude all of the major advances that have occurred since thepublication of the classic first edition. It covers the entirefield from basic navigation principles, equations, andstate-of-the-art hardware to emerging technologies. Each chapter isdevoted to a different system or technology and provides detailedinformation about its functions, design characteristics, equipmentconfigurations, performance limitations, and directions for thefuture. You'll find everything you need to know about: * Traditional ground-based radio navigation * Satellite systems: GPS, GLONASS, and their augmentations * New inertial systems, including optical rate sensors,micromechanical accelerometers, and high-accuracy stellar-inertialnavigators Instrument Landing System and its successors * Integrated communication-navigation systems used onbattlefields * Airborne mapping, Doppler, and multimode radars * Terrain matching * Special needs of military aircraft * And much more From the Publisher A unified treatment of the principles and practices of modern navigation sensors and systems. This updated edition follows the format of its predecessor describing the basic functions and principles, design characteristics and equipment configurations, performance limitations, and sources of error. Coverage includes ground-based radio-navigation system aids; integrated communication-navigation systems; inertial and stellar-inertial navigation systems; air-data sensors and algorithms that derive airspeed, angles of attack and sideslip, and barometric altitude; attitude and heading sensors and displays; Doppler radars, radar altimeters, and mapping radars; and terrain map-matching.
