Navigation

Navigation software serves for calculation of coordinates of missiles based on IMU measurements and estimation of the influence of instrument errors on the error of coordinates.

Program name:	NavigSim – Navigation Simulation
Version/Year:	Version 1.0, 2008.
Capability:	Calculation of trajectory of flying vehicle based on data obtained from inertial measurement unit (IMU). Calculation of the dispersion od trajectory coordinates due to measurement errors.
Purpose:	Determination of coordinates and orientation angles of a flying vehicle equipped with IMU in off-line mode. Examination of various integration methods on the accuracy of integration. Examination of measurement errors of gyros and accelerometers on the accuracy of determination of trajectory and angles.
Method:	Numerical integration of navigation equations and angular position equations given specific forces and angular rates by IMU in time. Monte-Carlo simulation of the trajectory dispersion.
Origin:	Original development based on published literature and own experience.
Platform:	Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10
Required software:	None
