Abstract :
The following discussion involves determination of the "absolute" speed (i.e., relative speed to the earth) of a vehicle, by measurement of the induced EMF resulting from movement in the magnetic field of the earth. The measurement is independent of movement in the surrounding fluid (wind, water, stream).
