GNSS-Based Navigation for Lunar Missions
Numerous applications, not only Earth-based, but also space-based, have strengthened the interest of the international scientific community in using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) as navigation systems for space missions that require good accu ...
EPFL2016Ultrafast Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Liquid Samples
José Javier Pancracio Ojeda Andara
This thesis focuses on the commissioning and characterization of HARMONIUM, an ultrafast tunable EUV source based on high-harmonic generation for performing photoelectron spectroscopy of liquids. In ultrafast photoelectron spectroscopy a short pump pulse i ...
EPFL2016Position Accuracy with Redundant MEMS IMU for Road Applications
Jan Skaloud, Pierre-Yves Gilliéron, Bertrand Merminod, Philipp Clausen
The diversity of road applications and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) makes the definition of positioning integrity a real challenge because the requirements are changing from one application to another. Even within liability or safety critical a ...
2015GPS-based orbital filter to reach the moon
Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Vincenzo Capuano
Nowadays, global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) are used for many new applications that go further than the original goal of providing position, velocity and timing for land, maritime and air applications. In particular, GNSS receivers have been adop ...
2015Distributed Deconfliction Algorithm for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles with Limited Range and Field of View Sensors
Denis Gillet, Alcherio Martinoli, Steven Adriaan Roelofsen
This paper proposes a novel approach for collision avoidance between Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with limited range and field of view sensors. The algorithm is designed for unicycle vehicles that need to fly above a specific minimal speed to maintain f ...
2015High spatial and spectral resolution long-range sensing using Brillouin echoes
Luc Thévenaz, Stella Foaleng Mafang
High spatial (~cm) and spectral (~MHz) resolution Brillouin sensing is realized with enhanced signal to noise ratio using a pre-activated acoustic field and an optical phase control over the interrogating pulse. Pre-activation of the acoustic field preserv ...
2010Map Matching using a multi-hypothesis approach
Modern navigation systems use multi-sensor-systems for location determination in combination with GPS or DGPS. Limitations in the availability of satellites due to shadowing and multi path effects in urban areas, magnetic disturbances, wheel slips and erro ...
2009Synchronizing method for impulse radio network
A method to synchronize impulse radio signal in a receiver based on a cross-correlation between an input signal and a template pulse train is described. The method comprises the steps of receiving a radio signal, performing a correlation between the acquir ...
2009Terrain-based Navigation for Underwater Vehicles Using Side Scan Sonar Images
Hannes Bleuler, Severin Stalder
Underwater navigation challenges the research community as a reliable navigation system is unavailable. Correctly matched landmarks could compensate the drift of dead reckoning navigation systems. Furthermore, they could be useful in side scan sonar image ...
Ieee Service Center, 445 Hoes Lane, Po Box 1331, Piscataway, Nj 08855-1331 Usa2008Cooperative Localization for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
The absence of GPS underwater makes navigation for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) a difficult challenge. Without an external reference in the form of acoustic beacons at known positions, the vehicle has to rely on proprioceptive information obtained ...
