Terrestrial Navigation
• Terrain Contour Matching, or TERCOM
It is a navigation system used primarily by cruise
missiles. It uses a pre-recorded contour map of the terrain
that is compared to measurements made during flight by
an on-board radar altimeter
• DSMAC (Digital Scene-Mapping Area Correlator)
Modern systems can store numerous images of a target as seen from different directions, and often the imagery can be calculated using image synthesis techniques.. The combination of these technologies produced the Digital
Scene-Mapping Area Correlator (DSMAC).
INERTIAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM
EMPLOYS ACCELEROMETERS TO CALCULATE DISTANCE FROM
TARGET AND LAUNCH POINT SIMULTANEOUSLY. THE MISSILE IS CONTROLLED BY SELF-CONTAINED AUTOMATIC DEVICES CALLED ACCELEROMETERS
Global Positioning Satellite• Another way to navigate a cruise missile is
by using a satellite positioning system, such
as GPS
• Satellite navigation systems are precise and cheap
Active homing• In the active
homing system,
target illumination
is supplied by a
component carried
in the missile, such
as a radar
transmitter. The
radar signals
transmitted from
the missile are
reflected off the
target back to the
receiver in the
missile.
Passive homing• In the passive
homing system, the
directing
intelligence is
received from the
target. Examples of
passive homing
include homing on
a source of infrared
rays (such as the
hot exhaust of jet
aircraft) or radar
signal
Semi-active homing• In the semi
active homing
system, the
missile gets its
target
illumination
from an external
source, such as a
transmitter
carried in the
launching
aircraft.
