  • Chain
    Patent number: 12498225
    Abstract: A distributed control system and method for decentralized, collaborative platform navigation, routing, and/or control are disclosed employing a distributed, factorized positioning, navigation, and timing chain that can link platforms or nodes having local sensors together by their local inertial and ranging measurements. In the distributed, factorized PNT chain, each platform maintains and contributes local measurements as states to a set of dynamically assigned parent node for a platform cluster, each parent nodes and associated clusters links to at least one other parent node aggregates the states of the platforms in the cluster and passes/propagates states of a linked clustered.
