Ship satellite-navigation systems (2nd revised and enlarged edition)
Abstract
Principles for the construction of automated satellite-based navigation systems for ships are reviewed. Topics covered include satellite navigation principles; the apparent motion of navigation satellites; the analysis of ephemeris observational errors; and the optimization of both equipment solutions and algorithms for navigation information processing. The present theoretical analysis is supported by results of mathematical modeling, by geometric interpretation of separate positions, and by examples of applications in the Transit and Navstar GPS systems.
