Modern Spacecraft Guidance, Navigation and Control: From System Modelling to AI and Innovative Applications provides a foundation of theory and applications of spacecraft GNC, from fundamentals to advanced concepts, including modern AI-based architectures with a focus on software and hardware practical applications. Divided into three parts, the book presents a historical introduction of spacecraft GNC, includes an overview of the main dynamical models in space, spacecraft attitude dynamics and stability analysis, sensors and actuators, covers guidance, navigation and control, including on-board and ground-based methods using applications such as launchers, rendezvous, landing, gravity assist, and attitude guidance, and discusses AI and modern applications.
Presenting a wide and balanced treatment of spacecraft GNC with fundamental theory, modern applications and artificial intelligence, this new book is ideal for aerospace engineers, GNC/AOCS engineers, avionic developers and AIV/AIT technicians.
