  • Abstract
    Initial alignment of gyrostabilized platforms is accomplished by gyrocompassing techniques. These cannot be used in the case of strap-down systems (gimballess inertial navigation systems) where the inertial components are "hard mounted." A scheme is proposed whereby initial alignment is accomplished for a strap-down system at standstill, using the gimballess inertial navigation system components only.
