Simulation of the Sun Position and Geomagnetic Parameters Effect in Pigeon Homing Navigation

The theory and some experiment result related to pigeon homing and navigation was introduced, through which the idea that the combination of solar zenith angle and geomagnetic inclination angle may play very crucial role in the determination of the flying direction. We suggested that the pigeon has special capability to judge the very small changes in solar zenith angle and geomagnetic inclination angle. It also posses precise biological clock and good memory. with which it could decide the rough direction by comparing the mentioned angle between the present spot and its home. In this way, simulation program was compiled and tested. The result showed that in the process of pigeon homing, the pigeon could find its home by correcting the direction constantly through judging the difference in solar zenith angle and geomagnetic inclination angle between its present site and home. The examples simulated rout of the pigeon homing were given in this paper
