...Heather M. Chemistruck; Robert Binns; John B. Ferris Modern terrain measurement systems use an inertial navigation system (INS) to measure and remove vehicle movement from laser measurements of the terrain surface. Instrumental and environmental biases inherent in the INS produce noise and drift...

...Jay A. Farrell; Han-Shue Tan; Yunchun Yang This paper describes the design, analysis, and implementation of a vehicle control system using control state information obtained from a carrier phase (CP) differential global positioning system (DGPS) aided inertial navigation system (INS). Experimental...

... on the nature and mission of the vehicle that uses the gyroscope for inertial navigation. High rates of maneuvering indicate millimeter scale gyroscopes that are realized as micro-electro-mechanical devices. In the case of General Aviation, considerations of noise, as well as cost, favor a centimeter scale...
