A High-Rate Virtual Instrument of Marine Vehicle Motions for Underwater Navigation and Ocean Remote Sensing
Dead-Reckoning aided with Doppler velocity measurement has been the most common method for underwater navigation for small vehicles. Unfortunately DR requires frequent position recalibrations and underwater vehicle navigation systems are limited to period

Dedication
This work was conducted on the basis of the author’s thesis within Florida Atlantic University’s Ocean Engineering Graduate Program requirements with the advice of Dr. N. Xiros and advisory committee members Drs. M. Dhanak, F. Driscoll, P. Beaujean and J. VanZwieten. This book is dedicated to my family, friends and colleagues who have supported me through the years and kept on believing in the work I did and its happy ending. I’m dedicating it particularly to my dear husband, Gregory, who has put up with these many years of me working long hours, my teeth grinding preventing him from sleeping and the overall stress on our household during that journey. I also dedicate this work to my tiger team, my grandmother, Lea, my mother, Chanta
