Modul-Kennung: BV610023

Inhalte:

The module consists of three lectures; Introduction to Satellite Navigation, Carrier Phase Positioning, and Advanced Celestial Mechanics. The first two lectures are blocked, Introduction to Satellite Navigation takes place in the first part of the semester, Carrier Phase Positioning takes place in the second part of the semester. Carrier Phase Positioning and Advanced Celestial Mechanics are accompanied by exercise labs.
