Institution National Aerospace Laboratory NLR Date 1995-06-27 Abstract The representation of the acceleration field on a rigid body contains as parameters its angular rate and acceleration vectors plus the acceleration vector at a single point of the body. A linear accelerometer measures a local component of the field. From the response of different accelerometers, three quadratic forms in the angular rate of the body are obtained. The solution of the angular rate is obtained via an iteration algorithm. There is some freedom in the choice of rate vector components and this circumstance is exploited to compose an algorithm that converges to the correct solution. The procedure is illustrated by a niomerical example. Possible uses are discussed.
