Research abstract
A. Summary . The program proposed herein addresses the need for more accurate target location information, specifically azimuth and elevation. This program combines accurately aligned MEMS gyros, accelerometers and a digital magnetic compass in a miniaturized package with GPS to achieve azimuth accuracy. The program leverages our demonstrated ability to package sensors, GPS and low power managed, high computation rate signal processing in a small volume to obtain an accurate MEMS based IMU/INS (1.9 in³) that utilizes new sensor technologies, miniaturized packaging and advanced 3D algorithms.
