Abstract

In this paper, a complete introduction to the dead reckoning navigation technique is offered after a discussion of the many forms of navigation, and the benefits and drawbacks associated with each of those types of navigation. After that, the dead reckoning navigation solution is used as an option that is both low-cost and makes use of the sophisticated equations that are used by the system. Moreover, to achieve the highest level of accuracy in navigation, an investigation of navigation errors caused by dead reckoning is calculated. Employing the suggested dead reckoning navigation system, the final position of an underwater vehicle can be established with a high degree of accuracy by using experimental data (from sensors) and the uncertainties that are associated with the system. Finally, to illustrate the correctness of the dead reckoning navigation process, the system error analysis as uncertainty that was carried out using experimental data using the dead reckoning navigation technique is compared with GPS data.
