Research on Inertial Isolation Rotation Modulation of Dual-Axis Inertial Navigation Based on Multi-Error Coupling Characteristics by Bo Zhang, Changhua Hu, Silin Hou, Jianxun Zhang, Jianfei Zheng, Xuan Liu

“…Currently, research on the rotational modulation of dual-axis inertial navigation for isolated carrier motion does not provide sufficient solutions for the compensation of the gyroscope scale factor error caused by the Earth’s rotation. Moreover, it is primarily applied to ships with low maneuverability and has not yet been implemented in the field of pure inertial guidance weapons. …”
