오늘날 위성항법, 위성통신을 이용한 항공항법감시의 새로운 변화 가운데 국제민간항공기구(ICAO)에서 VDL(VHF Digital Link) Mode 4로 채택된 STDMA (Self-organized Time Division Multiple Access)에 관심이 증대되고 있다. 해양분야에서는 선박위치 자동인식시스템(AIS) 및 선박운행관리시스템(VTS)에서 2002년부터 적용될 예정이고, 항공분야에서는 향후 몇 년후에는 ADS-B, SMGCS에서 응용될 가능성이 높다. 본 연구에서는 STDMA를 이용한 SMGCS구현을 위한 기술개발로서 사전에 측지된 기준국으로부터 실시간으로 GPS 보정값을 생성, 전송하도록 하는 실시간 DGPS기술과 동기신호에 따라 시분할 다중접속을 구현한 소프트웨어 기반의 TDMA기술을 구현하였으며 이를 연구원내에서 차량이동 실험을 수행하여 다수의 이동국간에 측위값을 상호전송함으로써 각각의 위치를 실기간으로 파악할 수 있음을 보였다.

eLoran 시스템에서 보다 높은 정확도로 시각 및 위치 정보를 제공하기 위해 별도의 데이터 채널인 Loran Data Channel (LDC)를 사용한다. LDC 메시지는 기존의 8개의 Loran 펄스 중 항법에 사용하지 않는 3-8번째 펄스의 전송시각을 변조하여 송출하는 Eurofix 방식과 9번째 추가 펄스를 이용해 데이터를 변조하는 9^th 펄스 방식으로 변조될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 eLoran 송신국에서 송출하는 LDC 메시지의 변조방법에 따른 수신 성능을 분석한다. 인천에서 운영 중인 eLoran 시험 송신국에서 9^th 펄스 변조방법과 Eurofix 변조방법으로 동시에 LDC 메시지를 송출할 수 있도록 설정하고, 인천과 평택의 eLoran 보정기준국의 데이터베이스 내 저장된 LDC 메시지를 분석해 변조방법에 따른 LDC 메시지 수신률을 분석한다. 또한 항로표지 관리선 인성 1호를 이용해 인천항 인근에서 실제 사용자의 LDC 메시지 수신률을 분석하였다. 본 연구결과는 eLoran 시범서비스 이후 본격적인 서비스 과정에서 중요하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

It is necessary to use satellite radio navigation system as well as satellite radio navigation augmentation system such as differential Global Positioning System to achieve the positioning accuracy and reliability requested by International Maritime Organization in port and coastal area. Especially, position accuracy of DGPS user is effected by accuracy of pseudorange correction broadcasted from DGPS reference station. This paper shows pseudorange correction calculation algorithm adopting a non-common error estimation filter in order to improve accuracy of pseudorange correction. Finally, this paper verifies that the pseudorange correction calculated by adopting a non-common error estimation filter satisfies performance specifications of RTCM.

Based on the modeling of DGPS antenna and antenna site environment, the DGPS short-monopole antenna performance according to the antenna surrounding environment are analyzed in this paper. The DGPS antenna site modeling that considers the ground conductivity and radio wave obstacles is performed and the general requirements for DGPS antenna site are proposed. In case of antenna site with proper radials on the ground plane of the fixed scale, the effect for antenna matching network due to the ground conductivity and radio wave obstacles is small but the impact on the radiation efficiency is large. To provide the stable DGPS service, it is important to install the DGPS antenna on the flat ground plain with good conductivity and without radio wave obstacles.

As the demand of high accuracy positioning for dynamic users increases, Network RTK is actively researched for dynamic users. Network RTK is a system which provides precise positioning in the range of about 50 to 70km radius using carrier phase measurements from several reference stations. By configuring multiple clusters, which provide Network RTK corrections independently, as a single system, it could provide precise positioning for a wider area. In this paper, we have studied how to efficiently operate multiple clusters in the Korean Peninsula. We analyzed the computational load according to the configuration of a multi-cluster system and proposed a method of selecting the main reference station and system infrastructure configuration for efficient operation. In order to analyze the effects of each proposed method, 71 clusters were constructed using the reference stations of the National Geographic Information Institute and simulations were conducted. As a result of the simulation, system computation amount was reduced by 66 % and system configuration cost was reduced by 90 %.

Extrapolating the correction information of ionosphere is essential for expanding wide area differential GPS (WADGPS) service area beyond the reference station network. In this paper, design and analysis of the artificial neural network for expanding the ionospheric correction region will be proposed. First, analysis about influence of each input of neural network were performed. The inputs are the day/year periodic function, sunspot number, and geomagnetic index (Ap). Second, performance analysis with respect to the number of hidden layers and neurons in the neural network is shown. As a result, estimation of total electron contents (TEC) on the high/low latitude regions in solar max(2014) are displayed.

The rover positioning is performed by estimating the baseline vector components in doubledifference positioning mode. This means that relative displacement due to the tide effects can be neglected when the distance between the reference and rover station is relatively short. However, the tide effects should be carefully modeled and removed as the baseline length gets longer. In this study, the relative displacement over the Korean Peninsula due to tide effects are examined through the numerical analysis. The results show that the tide modeling is required for the precise GPS positioning at cm-level accuracy.

Recently, many nations are operating and developing Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Also, Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS), which uses the geostationary orbit, is operated presently in order to improve the performance of GNSS. The most widely-used SBAS is Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) of GPS developed by the United States. SBAS uses various algorithms to offer guaranteed accuracy, availability, continuity and integrity to its users. There is algorithm for guarantees the integrity of the satellite. This algorithm calculates the satellite errors, generates the correction and provides it to the users. The satellite orbit errors are calculated in three-dimensional space in this step. The reference placement is crucial for this three-dimensional calculation of satellite orbit errors. The wider the reference placement becomes, the wider LOS vectors spread, so the more the accuracy improves. For the next step, the regional features of the US and Korea need to be analyzed. Korea has a very narrow geographic features compared to the US. Hence, there may be a problem if the three-dimensional space method of satellite orbit error calculation is used without any modification. This paper suggests a method which uses scalar values to calculate satellite orbit errors instead of using three-dimensional space. Also, this paper proposes the feasibility for this method for a narrow area. The suggested method uses the scalar value, which is a projection of orbit errors on the LOS vector between a reference and a satellite. This method confirms the change in errors according to the baseline distance between Korea and America. The difference in the error change is compared to present the feasibility of the proposed method.

For real-time precise positioning, N-RTK (Network Real-Time Kinematic) technology is widely used these days. However, the currently operating N-RTK system has a limitation in terms of the number of users. Therefore, if reference points generate correction messages with no limit on the number of users are developed later, it is determined that an appropriate reference point installation interval is required, so that the accuracy of the N-RTK system according to the baseline distance was analyzed. This experiment utilized receivers with varying performance that estimated the rover position, and RTKLIB, an open-source software, is used for processing data. As a result, the rover position was estimated accurately with a high rate of fixed ambiguity for all the receivers. When the reference station with a baseline length of 40 km was used, the vertical RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) was quite similar to the short baseline case, but only half of the ambiguity fixing rate was achieved. The outlier in the estimated rover position was not observed for the longer baselines in the case of a high-end receiver. It is necessary to analyze the ambiguity fixing and the accuracy of the kinematic positioning with scientific GNSS processing software.
