All Source Positioning, Navigation, and Timing

This is the first book on the topic of all source positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) which is a topic of research and development funded by both government and the private industry worldwide to solve the problem of positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) when the most convenient PNT measurement source available today, the GPS system, may be come This is the first book on the topic of all source positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) and how to solve the problem of PNT when the most widely-used measurement source available today, the GPS system, may be come unavailable, jammed or spoofed. Readers learn how to define the system architecture as well as the algorithms for GPS-denied and GPS-challenged PNT systems. In addition, the book provides comprehensive coverage of the individual technologies used, such as celestial navigation, vision-based navigation, terrain referenced navigation, gravity anomaly referenced navigation, signal of opportunity (SOO) based PNT, and collaborative PNT.
