Based on the concept of ultra-tight integration of GSSS, Pseudolite (PL) and Inertial Navigation Systems (INS), this paper proposes a method to execute quick GNSS/PL signal re-acquisition in short signal blockage scenarios. The key aspect of this method is that the INS measurements are used not only to aid the tracking loops, but also to aid re-acquisition when a signal blockage happens. The re...

It has been identified that the inertial system is not a completely observable system in the absence of maneuvers. Although the velocity errors and the accelerometer bias in the vertical direction can be solely observable, other error states, including the attitude errors, the accelerometer biases in the east and north directions, and the gyro biases, are just jointly observable states with vel...

Common everyday activities such as reaching for a cup, combing one's hair, or positioning a tool involve the accurate registration of the limb's orientation relative to the body and the environment. Past work has demonstrated that the ability of humans to perceive the spatial orientation of an occluded arm is tied to the arm's inertial eigenvectors, invariant mechanical parameters corresponding...

The influence of the moment of inertia on the rotational fluorescence depolarization is discussed. Based on experimental results obtained for five luminescent compounds: 2,5-diphenyloxazole (PPO), 2,2'-p-phenylene-bis(5-phenyloxazole) (POPOP) , p-bis[2-(5-a-naphthyloxazolyl)]-benzene (a-NOPON), 4-dimethylamino-a)-methylsulphonyl-trans-styrene (3 a) in n-parafines at low viscosity (from 0.22 x 1...

Accuracy of inertial navigation system (INS) is limited by inertial sensors imperfections. Before using inertial sensors signals in the data fusion algorithm, noise removal method should be performed, in which, wavelet decomposition method is used. In this method the raw data is decomposed into high and low frequency data sets. In this study, wavelet multi-level resolution analysis (WMRA) techn...

a specific form of the inertial law is presented by which we can gain a deeper insight into the essence of mass and inertia. in this modified theory, there is no need to keep the concept of absolute space and newton's third law as principles, by introducing a convenient form for gravitational law the coupling constant g becomes a function of inertial parameters of the universe

In the following, we offer a novel approach to modeling the observed effects currently attributed to the theoretical concepts of "dark energy," "dark matter," and "dark flow." Instead of assuming the existence of these theoretical concepts, we take an alternative route and choose to redefine what we consider to be inertial motion as well as what constitutes an inertial frame of reference in fla...

Building on the well-known Unruh-Davies effect, we examine the effects of projective measurements and quantum communications between accelerated and stationary observers. We find that the projective measurement by a uniformly accelerated observer can excite real particles from the vacuum in the inertial frame, even if no additional particles are created by the measurement process in the acceler...

Orthonormal wavelet expansions are applied to atmospheric surface layer velocity measurements. The effect of intermittent events on the energy spectrum of the inertial subrange is investigated through analysis of wavelet coefficients. The local nature of the orthonormal wavelet transform in physical space makes it possible to identify a relationship between the inertial subrange slope of the lo...
