The “S” in “GPS” and in “INS” stands for “system,” and “systems science” for modeling, analysis, design, and integration of such systems is based largely on linear algebra and matrix theory. Matrices model the ways that components of systems interact dynamically and how overall system performance depends on characteristics of components and subsystems and on the ways they are used within the system.

    This appendix presents an overview of matrix theory used for GPS/INS integration and the matrix notation used in this book. The level of presentation is intended for readers who are already somewhat familiar with vectors and matrices. A more thorough treatment can be found in most college‐level textbooks on linear algebra and matrix theory.
