DESCRIPTION:
Simple, basic, comprehensive. Great intro to nav. Bekir has captured all of the essential information for an introduction to modernnavigation systems for engineers. Theory, equations and modeling and simulation.He is sparse on words and heavy on equations (which I like!). If you need to comeup to speed fast on modern nav or if you need a refresher the book is worth every penny.. "Five Stars" according to Evandro Luiz da Costa. Very good starting book on the subject. Concepts are exposed very clearly.
The book then explains alignment techniques. Introduction to Modern Navigation Systems offers an efficient algorithm for polar navigation. After developing navigation equations, the book introduces the computational issues and discusses the physical aspects that are tied to implementing these equations. It also shows how to enhance the performance of the inertial system when aided by the Global Positioning System. It is an appropriate textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in aeronautical and electrical engineering. It starts by demystifying the central theme of the frame rotation using such algorithms as the quaternions, the rotation vector and the Euler angles. It could also be used as a reference book for practitioners in the field.. The book la
