Electronic Course
Materials! 
All course
materials this year will be provided in a more portable,
secure electronic PDF format. We've heard your requests
to lighten the
weight of travel home by eliminating heavy, spiral bound paper
notebooks.
We want to provide a more dynamic & beneficial experience for all
tutorial/course attendees. On-the-fly notations can be typed during your class using
the
"Sticky Note" feature
of Acrobat Reader 9 (provided for your convenience).
A laptop is
required.
Take your notes To-Go and have them
wherever you go.
Thank you to all attendees for your
continued support and feedback over the past 25 years!

| Objectives |
Using a waveform
estimation-theoretic approach this course develops
architectures approaching theoretical limits, given the GPS signal-in-
space. Building upon Kalman prerequisites the fundamental observation
and dynamical models are described, leading to practical
integerations. Augmentations are described for high dynamics, signal
blockages, and jamming. Modeling and simulation approaches critical to
the design and evaluation process are emphasized, followed by a case
studies. |
