| Summary: | The parameters underlying the design of an Inertial Navigation System (INS) for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) are studied. The strapdown approach for this design is discussed. The performance of a mathematical model of an INS is investigated using a simulation program developed for this purpose. An algorithm is outlined for investigating the accuracy of the computed position of an AUV as compared to the actual or expected position. The results of the simulation program developed using the above mentioned algorithm are presented in a graphical form. The Ring Laser Gyro (RLG), a recent development in the field of inertial sensor technology, is studied with reference to possible use in an INS for an AUV. | |
