METHOD OF NAVIGATION OF FLYING VEHICLES Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC G01S5/02 G01C21/20 

FIELD: radar engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method can be used for designing different radar and analogical systems intended for navigation of flying vehicles by using radio waves due to finding location of flying vehicles and for controlling their movement. Reference map of area is used, which map is drawn by known methods before flying vehicle starts moving. Part of area (measure part) is chosen onto reference map, current map is composed, and parameters of measure part of reference map are measured by means of radio waves, reflected in form of beams. Received meanings of measure part of current and reference map are compared. Correction signal of movement trajectory is calculated on the base of measurement of difference of results of multi-beam measurements. Movement of flying vehicles is subject to control due to correction of their location when flying vehicle move along measure part.

EFFECT: improved speed of operation; increased speed of data processing.
