Course Content

This is an advanced course focusing on satellite navigation, inertial navigation and their combined use. It details the design of the old and new signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the upcoming European counterpart, Galileo. Signal conditioning, acquisition, and tracking will be covered in detail, as well as link budgets. The effects of radio frequency interference and signal obstructions will also be treated. The course also covers the theory of operation for inertial sensors including accelerometers and gyroscopes. It culminates with a discussion on the combined use of satellite and inertial navigation to enable operation in challenging environments.
