Methods and results for realtime pitch, roll, and heading determination of a dynamic flexible platform are presented. Consideration is given to a GPS attitude and heading determination system installed in Ohio University's Douglas DC-3 research aircraft. Signals from four antennas are processed by an Ashtech 3DF 24-channel GPS receiver. Data from the receiver are sent to a microcomputer for storage and further computations. Attitude and heading data are sent to a second computer for display on a software generated artificial horizon. Demonstration of this technique proves its candidacy for augmentation of aircraft state estimation for flight control and navigation as well as for numerous other applications, such as reliable aircraft state estimation, measurement of structural flexing of large space structures, synthetic aperture radar, aerial photogrammetry, pointing systems, spacecraft attitude control, rendezvous and docking, and road mapping.
