Dr. Michael Braasch held the Thomas Professorship in the Ohio University School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and was a principal investigator with the Ohio University Avionics Engineering Center, USA. He performed navigation system research for over 35 years and taught inertial navigation on-site for numerous manufacturers of navigation-grade inertial systems. He was an instrument-rated commercial pilot and was a fellow of IEEE and the US Institute of Navigation.

The aim of this book is to provide an advanced introduction to inertial data processing (determination of attitude, velocity, and position) along with design architectures and algorithms used to aid the inertial navigation system (INS). The emphasis is on the high-end sensors and systems used in aerospace applications (known as ‘navigation grade’ or ‘nav grade’). The subject of inertial navigation systems and how to aid them is complex and multi-disciplinary. Mathematics and physics along with electrical, mechanical and software engineering all are involved. This book has been written to serve as an introduction for students and those new to the field.
