"The Guy Who Wrote the Books"

Mohinder S. Grewal, PhD, PE, has over 40 years experience in systems identification, guidance, navigation, and control. Dr. Grewal is well known for his innovative application of Kalman filtering techniques to real world modeling problems.   In 2009, he received the Distinguished Engineering Educator Award, Orange County Engineering Council and the Outstanding Professor Award 2009-2010 from California State University Fullerton.  GPS World magazine selected him as one of “50+ Leaders to Watch” in its May 2007 issue. 
 
Grewal co-authored Kalman Filtering Theory & Practice Using MATLAB, 4th Edition, Wiley & Sons, 2015. Navtech has described the book as having "excellent treatment of practical considerations involved in implementing a Kalman filter, especially with respect to numerical stability problems." The book has been widely cited by other authors and researchers.

Dr. Grewal also co-authored  Global Navigation Satellite Systems, Inertial Navigation & Integration 4th Edition, 2020, by Wiley & Sons.  (The 3rd Edition is available in a Chinese Translation.)

Grewal has published over 85 papers in IEEE and ION refereed journals and proceedings, including the Institute of Navigation 's (ION) NAVIGATION: Journal of the Institute of Navigation SPRING 2019 Volume 66, Number 1,  and the ION "Redbook," (Volume VI).  He has written numerous technical reports and holds two patents in GUS clock steering and L1/L5 differential bias estimation.    Dr. Grewal serves as a reviewer for IEEE, IEE, and other national and international publishers.  

Dr. Grewal's associations include Raytheon Systems, Boeing Company, Lockheed-Martin, University of California, Riverside , staff of the U. S. Department of the Interior, Boeing and Northrop. He is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Electrical and Computer Engineering, California State University, Fullerton, Senior Member of IEEE, Fellow of the Institute for the Advancement of Engineering, and member of the Institute of Navigation. 

"Excellent instructor.  He literally 'wrote the book' on a lot of this stuff."  (Participant, Edwards AFB)

"The only KF course I had that focuses on practical use of KF rather than on theory. Thank you Prof. Grewal!" (Participant, French German Research Institute)

Sponsored by Kalman Filtering Consultant Associates

We sponsor short courses in the area of Kalman filtering and its application to GNSS, INS, and navigation.  We offer this five day training in January and June, currently via Zoom.

By request, we can offer this course or shorter length courses at your site.  Email us at KFCAS@aol.com

 This training or a version thereof has been offered "on-site" to Boeing OKC, Esterline CMC Electronics, Edwards AFB, University of Calgary, NASA Dryden, China Lake NAWCWD Raytheon Systems, and as a tutorial at ION and IEEE conferences and at IEEE PLANS. 

Since 1997, scientists, engineers, and managers from an international listing have attended the twice annual offerings of "Application of Kalman Filtering to GPS, INS, & Navigation," and its predecessor "The Real World & Kalman Filtering."
