1. Design and Implementation of a Rocket Launcher Hybrid Navigation
University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanikAbstract : Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA) a German New Space Startup is developing a three-stage rocket launcher aiming at LEO/SSO orbits. A fundamental responsibility of the GNC team is the development of the rocket navigation algorithm to estimate the attitude, position, and velocity allowing the guidance and control loops to autonomously steer the rocket.

3. Improving the guidance, navigation and control design of the KNATTE platform
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : For complex satellite missions that rely on agile and high-precision manoeuvres, the low-friction aspect of the space environment is a critical component in understanding the attitude control dynamics of the spacecraft. The Kinesthetic Node and Autonomous Table-Top Emulator (KNATTE) is a three-degree-of-freedom frictionless vehicle that serves as the foundation of a multipurpose platform for real-time spacecraft hardware-in-the-loop experiments, and allows emulation of these conditions in two dimensions with the purpose of validating various guidance, navigation, and control algorithms.
