Navigation and communications systems

Abstract

There has been a growing trend toward incorporation of various types of communications function within navigation systems to create systems which provide greater functionability as compared to navigation systems which provide route-guidance functions alone. The authors, believing that navigation systems with greater position determination precision are necessary in these types of systems, have developed a VNS (Vehicle Navigation System). In this paper they discuss this VNS system, as well as applications for various VNS systems.<>
