In the future, it is necessary that using the Satellite-based radio navigation augmentation system such as Differential Global Positioning System(DGPS) to achieve a position accuracy of sub-meter level in port. Generally, the receiver for DGPS reference station should meet performance specifications of RSIM Ver. 1.1 presented by RTCM. This paper proposes a method to verify performance of the receiver for DGPS reference station according to the RSIM Ver. 1.1. And this paper presented that performance evaluation of the commercial receiver for DGPS reference station through the proposed method is satisfied with RSIM Ver. 1.1.

Hardware dedicated off-the-shelf maritime differential GPS RSIM lacks the open architecture to meet all the minimum maritime user requirements and to include future GNSS improvements after recapitalization. This paper carries out a study to replace existing hardware dedicated differential GPS RSIM with software differential GPS RSIM in order to make up the weak point of hardware dedicated off-the-shelf maritime differential GPS RSIM. In this paper, the architecture of software RSIM is proposed for maritime DGPS recapitalization. And the feasibility analysis of the proposed software differential GPS RSIM is performed as the first phase to realize the proposed architecture. For the feasibility analysis, the prototype RF module and DSP module are implemented with properties as wide RF bandwidth, high sampling frequency, and high speed transmission interface. This paper shows that the proposed architecture has the possibility of real time operation of software RSIM functionality onto the PC-based platform through the analysis of computation time. Finally, this paper verifies that the L1/L2 dual frequency software differential RSIM designed according to the proposed method satisfies the performance specifications set out in RTCM paper 221-2006-SC104-STD.

When a velocity-aided strapdown inertial navigation system is loaded into a torpedo subjected to an extraneous force by the current, odometer measurement errors occur seriously. In order to compensate for navigation errors induced by large odometer biases, the Kalman Filter with separate bias estimator is applied, which separately estimates an unknown bias, and corrects the state estimate produced by the bias-free Kalman Filter to reflect the effect of the bias estimate.

DGPS는 미 군사용 신호를 이용한 정밀도 수준을 제공할 수 있는 위성항법 시스템으로써 30여개 국가에서 해양용 국가망 위주로 구축되고 있다. 특히 미국은 해양용 DGPS 국가망을 내륙으로 확장한 NDGPS(Nationwide DGPS)체계 구축을 2002년까지 완성할 예정이다. 우리나라도 해양용 국가망을 운영하여 해양활동을 하는 사용자에게 3차원 고정밀 위치정보를 제공하고 있다. 근래에 우리나라 연안에 구축되어 사용중인 해양용 라디오비이콘형 DGPS망을 육상으로 연계한 서비스범위 확대방안이 논의되고 있다. 본 연구는 NDGPS에 대한 기초연구로서 운용중인 DGPS 기준국신호를 모델로 하여 해상 전파 설계치 대비 거리 및 지형변화에 따른 전계강도 변화를 분석하였다.

The localization system for tour guide robot was developed which is inevitable and important for the guide robot in order to guide the tourists and explain the history or contents of the site. The localization system is based on the non-inertial sensors such as a DGPS, Dead-Reckoning. The information of the DGPS is used to update the estimated positions from Dead Reckoning. The extended Kalman filter was used for the fusion of the measured information from the sensors and estimated positions by Dead Reckoning. The simulation results show that it is very reliable and the position error is bounded within a certain extend.

In this paper, we present a pen-shaped input device equipped with accelerometers and gyroscopes that measure inertial movements when a user writes on 2 or 3 dimensional space with the pen. The measurements from gyroscope are integrated once to find the attitude of the system and are used to compensate gravitational effect in the accelerations. Further, the compensated accelerations are integrated twice to yield the position of the system, whose basic concept stems from the field of inertial navigation. However, the accuracy of the position measurement significantly deteriorates with time due to the integrations involved in recovering the handwriting trajectory This problem is common in the inertial navigation system and is usually solved by the periodic or aperiodic calibration of the system with external reference sources or other information in the filed of inertial navigation. In the presented paper, the calibration of the position or velocity is performed on-line and off-line. In the on-line calibration stage, the complementary filter technique is used, where a Kalman filter plays an important role. In the off-line calibration stage, the constant component of the resultant navigational error of the system is removed using the velocity information and motion detection algorithm. The effectiveness and feasibility of the presented system is shown through the experimental results.

Consistent and realistic error covariance information is important for position estimation, error analysis, fault detection, and integer ambiguity resolution for differential GNSS. In designing a position domain carrier-smoothed-code filter where incremental carrier phases are used for time-propagation, formulation of consistent error covariance information is not easy due to being bounded and temporal correlation of propagation noises. To provide consistent and correct error covariance information, this paper proposes two recursive filter algorithms based on carrier-smoothed-code techniques: (a) the stepwise optimal position projection filter and (b) the stepwise unbiased position projection filter. A Monte-Carlo simulation result shows that the proposed filter algorithms actually generate consistent error covariance information and the neglection of carrier phase noise induces optimistic error covariance information. It is also shown that the stepwise unbiased position projection filter is attractive since its performance is good and its computational burden is moderate.

GPS is one of today's most widely used surveying techniques. But, users can't acquire an enough accuracy in applications of the navigation or geodesy by the GPS positioning technique because of the effects of the ionosphere and troposphere and US DoD's systematic errors. The solution of these restrictions is the DGPS technique that is to eliminate the common errors and can achieve a high accuracy. Although of sufficient density for good DGPS, accuracy of positioning is just not dense enough to provide complete coverage for real-time positioning, because distances between base and rover is short. In this paper, we designed and implemened a RTK-GPS error correction signal transmission system for long-distance using the TCP/IP, which consist of TCP, UDP and IP, which allows a user to increase the distance at which the rover receiver is located from the base, due to radio modem.

Even more than 240 commercial geostationary communication satellites currently on orbit at the higher location than the GPS orbit altitude perform their own missions only by the support of the ground segment because of weak visibility from GPS. In addition, the orbit determination accuracy is very low without using two or more dedicated ground tracking antennas in intercontinental ground segment, since the satellite hardly moves with respect to the ground station. In this paper, we propose the GSPS(Geostationary Satellite Positioning System) in circular orbits of two sidereal days period higher than the geosynchronous orbit for orbit determination and autonomous satellite operation. The GSPS is conceived as a ranging system in that unknown positions of a geostationary satellite can be acquired from the known positions of the GSPS satellites. Each GSPS satellite transmits navigation data, clock data, correction data, and geostationary satellite command to control a geostationary satellite.

차량의 위치를 인식하기 위한 시스템으로는 위성 위치 확인 시스템(GPS, Global Positioning System)과 관성 항법 시스템(INS, Inertial Navigation System)이 있다. INS는 차량의 최초 위치를 입력해야한다는 점과 시간이 지남에 따라 오차가 누적된다는 점 때문에 GPS와 INS가 상호보완적인요소로 통합하여 사용되고 있다. 하지만 GPS로부터 얻는 위치 정보는 정확성의 문제가 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이를 해결하기 위해 톨게이트와 전광판을 활용하여 초기의 위치 값을 얻고, 누적오차를 방지하기 위해 재 초기화하는 방안을 제안한다. 고속도로상의 톨게이트와 전광판에는 모두 DSRC(Dedicate Short Range Communication) 시스템을 통해 위치를 전송할 수 있다. 따라서 INS의 최초 위치 입력이 필요한 문제와 누적오차 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 제안 방식을 통해 INS의 장점을 살리면서도 좀 더 정확한 위치를 인식 할 수 있어 차량 간 통신(V2V, Vehicle-to-Vehicle)기반의 이웃 차량 위치인지 시스템에 대한 연구가 더 활발해질 것으로 기대된다.
