Abstract

The Global Positioning System(GPS) is a worldwide radio navigation system based on satellite technology. Signal availability and accuracy of GPS are subject to change due to an incomplete constellation and operational test activities. In order to analyze the signal availability and accuracy of GPS, we made an experiment on this system in Kunsan during April 6, 7, 9, 10, 1992. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. It was possible to avail the GPS system almost 24 hours per day, but sometimes it was impossible to obtain the GPS signal 2 or 3 times per day and its total time was at the most an hour. 2. By using satellite almanac, we also could calculate PDOP(HDOP) and forecast signal availability. And the mean positional error was $37.9{\sim}73.6m$ and standard deviation was $37.4{\sim}133.1m$. The positional error almost coincided with PDOP(HDOP). 3. The mean positional error of 3D was less than that of 2D. And the altitude error in 3D was about $56{\sim}74m$ and its standard deviation was about $65{\sim}93m$.

GPS시스템에 대한 측위가능시간과 측위정도를 알기 위하여 1992년 4월 6일${\sim}$10일까지 군산대학교에서 GPS NAVSTAR위성을 관측하고, 그 측위정도를 분석${\cdot}$검토한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. GPS는 거의 24시간동안 측위가 가능하였으나 $2{\sim}3$회 정도 측위가 불가능한 경우가 있었으며 그 시간은 1일 최대 1시간 정도였다. 또한 위성의 almanac을 이용하여 관측지점에서 관측에 이용할 수 있는 위성과 PDOP(HDOP)를 계산하면 측위가능시각 및 측위정도를 예측할 수 있었다. 2. GPS에 의한 평균측위오차는 $37.9{\sim}73.6m$, 표준편차 $37.4{\sim}133.1m$로서 PDOP(HDOP)값의 크기에 거의 일치하는 경향을 보였고 다른 전파항해계기에 비하여 측위정도가 훨씬 우수하였음을 알 수 있었다. 3. 3차원측위(3D)가 2차원측위(2D)보다 그 측위정도가 좋았으며, 3차원측위에서 고도의 평균측정오차는 $56{\sim}74m$, 표준편차는 $65{\sim}93m$이었다.
