Online resources: Summary: Beginning with the basic principles of navigation, this work takes a step beyond introductions with a concise look at the flight applications of inertial navigation systems integrated with Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite systems. Written at the senior engineering college level, the textbook takes a tutorial approach, weaving interrelated disciplines together with interactive computer exercises and AINSBOOK software for error analysis and Kalman filter simulation. Readers should benefit from engineering, teaching and flying experience of Professor Biezard. The AINSBOOK software is the work of Dr Stanley F. Schmidt, a scientist with experience at NASA and in the aerospace industry. This guide offers a technical jump start with a look at traditional navigation radio aids, inertial guidance systems and Kalman filters, and launch into GPS applications to navigation, precision approach and landing, attitude control and air traffic control. Figures, photos and tables add to the textbook's accessibility, making it a reader-friendly reference for any aerospace professional working in development and testing of advanced integrated navigation systems.
