Advanced Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (ARAIM) is a proposed extension of RAIM to aviation safety of life operations, which include approaches with vertical guidance. ARAIM would exploit the new civilian signals in L5 and new GNSS core constellations. The European Union (EU) and the United States (US) have an agreement establishing cooperation between GPS and Europe’s Galileo system....

Scientists in the Autonomous Intelligent Systems Section (AISS) at Defence R&D Canada (DRDC) undertake research to enhance the state-of-the-art in autonomous localization, navigation and mapping for unmanned vehicles. Although related work relies on the availability of GPS as part of an integrated navigation system, AISS recognizes that fieldable autonomous military ground and air assets will b...

The Federal Aviation Administration is leading the National Airspace System modernization e ort, in part by supplanting traditional air tra c services with GPS aided by the Wide and Local Area Augmentation Systems (WAAS & LAAS). Making GPS the sole-means of navigation will enhance safety, exibility and e ciency of operations for all aircraft ranging from the single engine general aviation aircr...

• Approximately 48,000 FAA employees who provide air traffic control, flight service, security, field maintenance, certification, systems acquisitions, and a variety of other services. • Approximately 13,000 instrument flight procedures, including over 1,000 Instrument Landing System (ILS) procedures, over 1,700 nondirectional beacon (NDB) procedures, over 2,700 VHF omnidirectional range (VOR) ...

A template matching is a popular method for visual recognition. It costs much time to detect target objects. We have applied a Fuzzy and Neural Network algorithm to solve this problem. However, the problem to mistake recognizing the target object is not solved. Hence, in this paper, we propose a robust visual recognition algorithm for the autonomous robot navigation. The proposing algorithm emp...

More often homeland security, disaster mitigation and military operations are performed in urban environments. Time consuming, labor intensive and possibly dangerous tasks like bomb detection, search-and-rescue and reconnaissance done with robots could save resources. An aerial robot capable of flying in closed quarters like warehouses, stadiums, underground parking lots and tunnels is featured...

The concept of the measurement system dedicated for air coupled ultrasound navigation study is presented. The proposed system is portable as it is intended for field experiments. In particular, it is planned to use it research, rapid prototyping and signal processing experiments of vehicle parking-guidance systems, transport docking platforms orientation, industrial robotic vision systems and o...
