Aplication of polarymetry in aviation navigation systems

Abstract

The paper deals with questions of developing polarimetric navigation methodfor determining aircraft's coordinates. This method, potentially, can increase the accuracy and sensitivity of navigation parameters determination. The paper also deals with existing methods and systems for determining aircraft's navigation parameters and proposed polarimetric method. Also offered block diagrams of the onboard and ground polarimetric device. In article were givenresult of themathematical modeling of measuring channel.
