SATELLITE POSITIONING-BASED GUIDANCE SYSTEM THAT UTILIZES SIMULATED INERTIAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM

A satellite positioning-based guidance system and method that utilize a simulated inertial navigation system are disclosed. The trajectory of the body of a non-thrusted flight vehicle is used instead of a conventional inertial navigation system. The attitude of the flight vehicle is determined using a satellite receiver, and the Extended Kalman filter is used to implement the navigation function.
