Feasibility of Using Synthetic Aperture Radar to Aid UAV Navigation

Feasibility of Using Synthetic Aperture Radar to Aid UAV Navigation

This study explores the potential of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to aid Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) navigation when Inertial Navigation System (INS) measurements are not accurate enough to eliminate drifts from a planned trajectory. This problem can affect medium-altitude long-endurance (MALE)...
