Potential Hardware and Software Improvements of Inertial Positioning and Gravity Vector Determination,

Abstract

The paper discusses the potential incorporation of higher performance gyroscopes and accelerometers in the horizontal channels of Litton's local-level inertial positioning system and the resulting improvements in positioning and deflection of the vertical determination. It further provides deflection error estimates based on the use of simple and advanced data reduction methods and identifies limitations of interest. (Author)
