Integrated guidance and control framework for the waypoint navigation of a miniature aircraft with highly coupled longitudinal and lateral dynamics [PDF]
A solution to the waypoint navigation problem for the fixed wing micro air vehicles (MAV) having a severe coupling between longitudinal and lateral dynamics, in the framework of integrated guidance and control (IGC) is addressed in this paper. IGC yields a single step solution to the waypoint navigation problem, unlike conventional multiple loop design.

Solar Dynamics Observatory Guidance, Navigation, and Control System Overview [PDF]
The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) was designed and built at the Goddard Space Flight Center, launched from Cape Canaveral on February 11, 2010, and reached its final geosynchronous science orbit on March 16, 2010. The purpose of SDO is to observe the Sun and continuously relay data to a dedicated ground station.

Electro-dynamic analysis of 60mm mortars modified with guidance, navigation, and control components [PDF]
This paper summarizes the results from numerical analyses of 60mm mortar projectile bodies that are modified with guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) hardware. The major findings from the study include: 1) the far field radiation patterns predicted for the projectile considered in this analysis are sensitive to the overall size and shape of the ...

Abstract This study presents the development of navigation system of AUV. It is initially in the form of a nonlinear system model to determine the trajectory for the AUV motion control. The non-linear system model of UNUSAITS AUV is then implemented in the Square Root Ensemble Kalman filter (SR-EnKF) to estimate the trajectory of the AUV.

A Survey of Medical Drones from Flight Dynamics, Guidance, Navigation, and Control Perspectives
The integration of drones into the medical field has revolutionized healthcare delivery by enabling rapid transportation of medical supplies, organs, and even emergency assistance in remote or disaster-stricken areas. While other survey papers focus on the healthcare supply chain, operations, and medical emergency response aspects, this paper takes a ...

Advanced control algorithm applied to the Guidance Navigation & Control of complex dynamic systems
In this Thesis a new Optimal control-based algorithm is presented, FLOP is part of a new class of algorithms the group of Mechatronic and Vehicle Dynamic Lab of Sapienza is developing under the name of Variational Feedback Controllers (VFC). The proposed method starts from classical optimal variational principles, usually part of the Pontryagin’s or ...

A Simulation Platform for Dynamic Positioning Ship with Guidance, Navigation and Control Function
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013In order to study the whole system performance of dynamic positioning ship, a simulation platform which contains environment and ship model, as well as basic guidance, navigation and control functions is established. Besides the ordinary ship and environment modeling, a guidance method for waypoint following is designed by using path interpolation and ...

Guidance Navigation and Control Algorithms for High Dynamics Vehicles
2018Accuracy and precision are the cornerstone for ballistic projectiles from the earliest days of this discipline. In the beginnings, impact point precision in artillery devices deteriorated when range was extended, particularly for ballistic artillery rockets and shells, which are not propelled except during the launch.
