Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to introduce students to basic information in the field of navigation systems. The course deals with both the basic principles and concepts of satellite navigation, as well as its implementation. The concept, development, structure of the system and factors influencing the accuracy of measurements are discussed. Students will also get acquainted with other complementary systems and technologies. During the exercises, students will try out the basic functions and operations.
Define the main ideas and conceptions of the subject, describe the main approaches of the studied topics, recall the theoretical knowledge for solution of model problems.
