Abstract

The conventional indexes for describing the GNSS positioning performance such as satellite visibility, dilution of precision (DOP) and signal to noise ratio is very useful in open sky, however, they are not useful in the land road environment. In this paper new index is suggested for describing the GNSS positioning performance for the road environment. The new index is called Sky View based DOP (SVDOP). SVDOP is derived referring the Sky-View-Factor (SVF). The usefulness is analyzed by comparing the SVDOP and SVF in land road environment after the singularity points are selected and SVDOP is calculated.

위성항법의 가시성, Dilution of Precision (DOP), 신호대잡음비 등과 같은 위치결정 성능지표는 개활지 환경과 같이 항법위성의 가시성이 좋은 지역에서 그 활용도가 높으며, 육상교통환경의 경우 그 활용도가 낮다. 본 논문은 육상교통환경에서 위성항법 신호를 활용하여 위치결정을 수행하는 경우 활용도가 높은 성능지표로 Sky View based DOP (SVDOP)을 제안한다. SVDOP은 Sky-View Factor(SVF)를 응용하여 개발되었으며, 기존의 SVF의 문제점을 극복할 수 있다. Sky-View 영상을 활용하여 특징점을 선택하고 이를 활용하여 DOP를 계산할 수 있다. 제안된 방법을 이용하는 경우 SVF 사용보다 육상교통환경에서 위치결정 성능 예측에 용이함을 확인할 수 있다.
