Overview
What you will study
The aim of this Guidance and Navigation for Autonomous Systems course offered by Cranfield University is to provide you with a fundamental understanding and knowledge of conventional and modern guidance and navigation for autonomous systems.
On successful completion of the module you will be able to:
- Critically understand the fundamentals of the various guidance techniques and their properties
- Describe the algorithms that are required to produce an estimate of position and attitude
- Demonstrate the characteristics, purposes, and design procedures of guidance and navigation systems
- Evaluate challenging problems in the guidance and navigation approaches for autonomous systems
- Demonstrate challenging issues of the cooperative guidance design and critically evaluate the cooperative guidance systems to be able to enhance the overall performance.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- Navigation and guidance systems
