The use of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers for navigation still presents many challenges, in particular in urban canyon and indoor environments where satellite availability is reduced and received signals are usually much atten- uated. ...
Core formation is the main differentiation event in the history of a planet. However, the chemical composition of planetary cores and the physicochemical conditions prevailing during core formation remain poorly understood. The asteroid 4-Vesta is the smal ...
The challenge of estimating the position, velocity and orientation in space in a precise and reliable way, at any time, with and without reception of satellite signals, is the core subject of this dissertation. To this end, the use of Bayesian filters whic ...
The integration of observations issued from a satellite-based system (GNSS) with an inertial navigation system (INS) is usually performed through a Bayesian filter such as the extended Kalman filter (EKF). The task of designing the navigation EKF is strong ...

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) such as GPS, GLONASS, and the future Galileo and BeiDou, have demonstrated to be a valid and efficient system for various space applications in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), such as spacecraft orbit and attitude determi ...
Modeling and estimation of gyroscope and accelerometer errors is generally a very challenging task, especially for low-cost inertial MEMS sensors whose systematic errors have complex spectral structures. Consequently, identifying correct error-state parame ...
Since the dawn of the Space Age, over six thousand satellites have been launched into Earth orbit. The function of determining the orientation of a satellite in orbit, so that it can point its antennas and instruments in the required direction is known as ...
MEMS sensors, actuators, and sub-systems can enable an important reduction in the size and mass of spacecrafts, first by replacing larger and heavier components, then by replacing entire subsystems, and finally by enabling the microfabrication of highly in ...
We present a novel MEMS inertial sensor that directly measures the gravity gradient in order to sense the relative orientation of a satellite with respect to the Earth. An Earths ensor provides an orbiting satellite with a vector towards the Earth center. ...
