Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

This book places major emphasis on the practical applications of advanced Navigation Guidance and Control (NGC) Systems, treating the subject more from an engineering than mathematical perspective.

3.0 out of 5 stars Modern Navigation, Guidance, and Control Processing, March 10, 2000
By 
Christopher (Tucson, Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Modern Navigation, Guidance, And Control Processing (Paperback)
This text has alot of good and useful information although it probably could be better organized. One issue I take with the author is that he references other books in the series throughout his text as having much more detailed information on topics (e.g., "discussion on the stability analysis of a guidance loop is discussed in the first book of the series"). Where are the other books. There are 5 books identified but only two have been published. I purchased Volume II and would like Volume I but as far as I can tell it still does not exist! Volume II was published in 1991! Will Volume II ever be published (i.e., Modeling, Design,Analysis, and Simulation of NGC Systems)? In the software business marketing practices such as this were called "vaporware." I know alot of other folks in my industry who would be interested in purchasing some of the other books that are supposed to be part of this series.

3.0 out of 5 stars okay, but not great, October 29, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Modern Navigation, Guidance, And Control Processing (Paperback)
This book is more of a industry-like book comparing different navigation schemes and their outcomes, which is always useful. Unfortunately, only the gimballed INS system is given discussion. By the time this book was written, laser ring gyros and fiber optic gyros were technologically feasible. I feel as though David Titterton's book on inertial navigation is more thorough, but it always helps to get a second opinion.
