The determination of a body position, velocity and attitude is the purpose of the navigation techniques. The most extended navigation systems (INS/GNSS), as any other HW and SW system, provide precise and accurate enough ...
Avui dia, s'estima que el mercat de la geom atica mou pels volts de 30 bilions d'euros. Al darrera del creixement d'aquest mercat hi trobem noves tecnologies,projectes i aplicacions, com per exemple, \Global Positioning ...
(English) Natural movements of Earth and human-based activities generate continuous ground displacements, affecting human life and the economy. In order to mitigate and reduce the impact of such displacements, accurate and ...
The research of this paper-based dissertation is focused on the Fast Precise Point Positioning (Fast-PPP) technique. The novelty relies on using an accurate ionosphere model, in combination with the standard precise satellite ...
(English) Currently, half of the satellites do not reach 20% of their expected lifetime. The possibility of recycling these "zombie satellites" (ZS) with limited capabilities would optimize this on-orbit infrastructure, ...
Two research studies have been addressed in this thesis. Both of them are of actual scientific interest and are based on processing GNSS data. The first part of this thesis is devoted to GNSS detection and monitoring of ...
(English) This document presents the collection of four manuscripts published during my Doctoral academic formation, which main goal has been the real-time implementation of tools to monitor the ionosphere using Global ...
La tesi proposa una sèrie d'algoritmes destinats a obtenir informació del contingut d'electrons lliures presents a la ionosfera. El tipus de dades que s'utilitzaran seran bàsicament les corresponents a receptors de dades ...
Tot i que en les últimes dècades la reducció del soroll emès pels avions ha estat substancial, el seu impacte a la població ubicada a prop dels aeroports és un problema que encara persisteix. Contenir el soroll generat ...
Due to the rich dynamic properties of the equilibria of the Restricted Three Body Problem (RTBP), the libration point orbits (LPOs) around them are ideal locations for scientific missions. Fortunately, these invariant ...
The research of this paper-based dissertation is focused on Global Ionospheric Maps (GIM) generation and assessment. In summary, the novelty and thematic unity in this works relies on four different but complementary topics: ...
The comprehension of the viscoelastic behaviour of metals is of high interest as these materials are subjected to dynamic loads in most of their structural applications, and also because it enables a deeper understanding ...
(English) Hybrid or multi-sensor-based positioning has been a research topic actively investigated in the last decade. In this context, the possibility of using information extracted from imaging sensors, for positioning, ...
The growth in traffic increased the pressure on the environmental sustainability of air transport. In this context, many research effort has been devoted to minimise the environmental impact in the different phases of ...
Algorithms (EA) are useful optimization methods for exploration of the search space, but they usually have slowness problems to exploit and converge to the minimum with accuracy. On the other hand, gradient based methods ...
Esta tesis doctoral llevó a cabo el estudio, desarrollo e implementación de algoritmos para la navegación con sistemas globales de navegación por satélite (GNSS), enfocándose en la determinación precisa de la posición, velocidad ...
The LISA Pathfinder project is an ESA/NASA technology demonstrator mission that must test the critical instrumentation required for a future space-borne gravitational wave observatory based on the LISA design. The satellite, ...
