This book explains the basic principles of satellite navigation technology with the bare minimum of mathematics and without complex equations. It helps you to conceptualize the underlying theory from first principles, building up your knowledge gradually using practical demonstrations and worked examples. A full range of MATLAB simulations is used to visualize concepts and solve problems, allowing you to see what happens to signals and systems with different configurations. Implementation and applications are discussed, along with some special topics such as Kalman Filter and Ionosphere.
With this book you will learn:
How a satellite navigation system works
How to improve your efficiency when working with a satellite navigation system
How to use MATLAB for simulation, helping to visualize concepts
Various possible implementation approaches for the technologyThe most significant applications of satellite navigation systems
Dr. Rajat Acharya is a Senior Scientist at the Space Applications Centre, a key unit of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). With over two decades of involvement in India’s satellite navigation programs—GAGAN and NavIC—he has significant contributions in ionospheric modelling and space weather research. Dr. Acharya serves as Course Director for GNSS and SATCOM at the UN-affiliated Centre for Space Science and Technology Education in Asia and the Pacific (CSSTEAP). He has also been a Visiting Professor at Gujarat University, where he taught postgraduate courses in Geo-informatics and Satellite Navigation. Dr. Rajat Acharya regularly teaches Space Weather at the postgraduate level and has written extensively, authoring other popular books on the subject. He also represented India as Co-Chair of Working Group-C during the sessions of the International Committee on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (ICG).
