Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

A software-centric on-board navigation and trajectory-control framework is presented, integrating satellite positioning, inertial sensing, Kalman filtering, and aerodynamic surface actuation within a modular architecture. A ground control station with an interactive interface (PyQt5) supports real-time monitoring, parameter tuning, and trajectory replanning. In hardware-in-the-loop simulations and bench tests, the system maintains stable performance during short GNSS interruptions (up to 5 s) and reduces dispersion (CEP proxy) from 30-40 m to 3-10 m on a legacy unguided platform surrogate under representative wind disturbances. Open architecture facilitates scalability, reproducibility, and non-weaponized research use in aerospace navigation and control.
