As well,   most imaging systems inherently perform a\npositioning function. Positioning systems can be applied\nin various forms of transport such as general and    space\naviation or automobiles, but also in geodetic surveying.\nThe aim  of this monograph is to establish a general method\nfor the mathematical     analysis of positioning systems and to\ndemonstrate the utility of this      characterization. The basic\napproach uses information theory, differential  geometry,\nrate distortion theory and chaos, as well as integrating          the\nmore conventional methods of analysis based on estimation\nand       detection theory. This approach allows the derivation\nof performance limits,estimates of optimal configuration,\nreasoning about classes of systems,     direct comparison\nbetween positioning and communication systems, and        estimates\nof the source information rate of moving objects. The             book\nshould be of interest to any researcher seeking to gain a\nbetter   understanding of a positioning or imaging system.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1992-09-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783540558507\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/BFb0040998\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 171\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578274504844,"sku":"9783540558507","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783540558507.jpg?v=1775004274","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783540558507","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
