X-ray Pulsar-based Navigation : Theory and Applications, Paperback / softback Book

X-ray Pulsar-based Navigation : Theory and Applications Paperback / softback

Part of the Navigation: Science and Technology series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book discusses autonomous spacecraft navigation based on X-ray pulsars, analyzing how to process X-ray pulsar signals, how to simulate them, and how to estimate the pulse’s time of arrival based on epoch folding.

In turn, the book presents a range of X-ray pulsar-based spacecraft positioning/time-keeping/attitude determination methods.

It also describes the error transmission mechanism of the X-ray pulsar-based navigation system and its corresponding compensation methods.

Further, the book introduces readers to navigation based on multiple measurement information fusion, such as X-ray pulsar/traditional celestial body integrated navigation and X-ray pulsar/INS integrated navigation.

As such, it offers readers extensive information on both the theory and applications of X-ray pulsar-based navigation, and reflects the latest developments in China and abroad.
