The user segment comprises the GPS receiver, which receives the signals from the GPS satellites and determines how far away it is from each satellite. Mainly this segment is used for the U.S military, missile guidance systems, civilian applications for GPS in almost every field. Most of the ...
Within months, an interstellar fleet can be converted from merchant-men to men-of-war. (ed note: Vector One ships travel in one dimension: the altitude from the planetary surface. Vector Two ships travel in two dimensions: the two dimensional plane of the stellar system's ecliptic. Vector ...
Effect of Estimation on the Performance of an Integrated Missile Guidance and Control System - AIAA Guidance, Navigation and Control Conference and Exhibit... Motivated by spectral separation, guidance and control systems of interceptors are traditionally designed separately. However, interception of highly...
When the remote missile or spacecraft returns to the atmosphere, it is necessary to use millimeters of millimeter waves that can smoothly penetrate the plasma to achieve communication and guidance. High-resolution millimeter wave radiometer applies to the remote sensing of meteorological parameters. The...
Rocket and missile system, any of a variety of weapons systems that deliver explosive warheads to their targets by means of rocket propulsion. Rocket is a general term used broadly to describe a variety of jet-propelled missiles in which forward motion r
(mainly regulation of the spacecraft components’ temperatures), (6) guidance, navigation, and flight control, (7) computer anddata processing, (8) structure (the skeleton framework of the spacecraft that physically supports all other subsystems), and (9) a "health-monitoring" system that ...
At the terminal of the missile-target intersection, when the missile attacks the target, the kill probability is associated with many factors, including the accuracy of the missile guidance system, the miss distance, the positional relationship when the missile and target meet, the initiation trigger...
Strategic weapons system, any weapons system designed to strike an enemy at the source of his military, economic, or political power. In practice, this means destroying a nation’s cities, factories, military bases, transportation and communications infr
