DIFFERENTIAL LORAN-C IN INTEGRATED MARINE NAVIGATION SYSTEMS

As the exploration for oil has moved to increasingly deeper water, the requirement for a highly accurate navigation system not limited by the depth constraints of the doppler sonar has become more obvious. This paper describes the Magnavox Model 200 Integrated Navigation System, which has been expanded to include Loran-C as a velocity sensor in order to meet this requirement.
