B: Applications

Evaluation of Sensor-Agnostic All-Source Residual Monitoring for Navigation

The addition of alternative sensors such as cameras, magnetometers, and small ranging radios increases the likelihood of a mismodeled and/or faulty sensor, affecting the accuracy and performance of the overall navigation solution. Unlike two-sensor systems such as GPS-inertial integration, systems of three or more sensors present the problem of ambiguity as to which sensor is adversely affecting the solution. This presents the need for a robust framework that can maintain navigation integrity despite the additional sensor modalities.

Washington View – PNT: Nothing to See?

A Department of Homeland (DHS)-chartered May 2021 report concludes that PNT threat and resilience concerns are not as dire as some have made them out to be, and that funds for backup could be spent elsewhere. Why this runs counter to other recent government reports is not clear, nor is the fallout from this divergence of Congressionally mandated views. The Department of Transportation has distanced itself a bit from this report by the RAND Corporation—and even its issuer, the DHS, seems to have done so.
