In this paper, a software-based real-time GPS L1 receiver is proposed for the block correlation techniques. Recently various navigation satellite navigation receivers in the environment for the development of more efficient software-based real-time receiver need to be developed. It is composed of components such as signal supplier, signal acquisition, signal tracking, navigation data processing, and navigation solution. They are designed and implemented as component based software for enhancing reusability and modifiability for user to have more flexibility during development of receiver. This paper will describe design, implementation, and verification of the developed realtime software GNSS receiver.

The typical Differential Global Navigation Satellite System service of South Korea is the Ground Based Differential GNSS service. South Korea building the Satellite-Based Augmentation System for GNSS to expand the Differential GNSS service. The satellite-based differential GNSS serive is called the SBAS(Satellite Based Augmentation System). The SBAS reference station on ground should be installed to operate the SBAS service alike the ground based augmentation system. That SBAS reference station can be installed with ground based DGNSS reference station. To make the SBAS reference station combined with the ground based DGNSS reference station, DGNSS system should be connected to NovAtel's G-III receiver. In this paper, the DGNSS software reference station's software module architecture was changed and G-III interface module was designed to use the G-III receiver.

It is necessary that Fail-Safe Seaway technology providing a continuous navigation solution though fault of navigation system is occurred in sea. This paper focus on signal processing of GPS receiver, one of receivers using the software radio technology to implement a integrated radio navigation system including satellite-based and ground-based navigation systems. It is difficult to implement the software GPS receivers using a commercial processor because of the heavy computational burden for processing the GPS signals in real time. This paper proposes an efficient multi-bit GPS signal processing scheme to reduce the computational burden for processing the GPS signals in the software GPS receiver. The proposed scheme uses a compression concept of the multi-bit replica signals and patterned look-up table method to generate the correlation value between the GPS signals and the replica signals.

This paper proposes a precise drone-positioning technique using a differential global positioning system (DGPS). The proposed system consists of a reference station for error correction data production, and a mobile station (a drone), which is the target for real-time positioning. The precise coordinates of the reference station were acquired by post-processing of received satellite data together with the reference station location data provided by government infrastructure. For the system's implementation, low-cost commercial GPS receivers were used. Furthermore, a Zigbee transmitter/receiver pair was used to wirelessly send control signals and error correction data, making the whole system affordable for personal use. To validate the system, a drone-tracking experiment was conducted. The results show that the average real-time position error is less than 0.8 m.

The altitudes of GEO satellites are higher than those of GPS satellites. Therefore the visibility and the received power of GPS signals are totally different from those of the users near the Earth's surface. In this study, we analyzed the visibility of GPS signals received on GEO satellites. And we also developed a software GPS receiver that works on GEO satellites using CCMDB algorithm which is a weak signal receiver algorithm. GPS signals received on a GEO satellite are generated by a commercial hardware GPS simulator and used for the verification of the developed software GPS receiver. The mean 3D position and velocity error are calculated as 165.636 m and 0.5081 m/s.

ETRI has developed GNSS digitized IF signal generator for providing test and evaluation environment for various software level application and navigation algorithm in Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS). GNSS digitized IF signal generator provides two main capabilities, GPS and Galileo raw data generation and digitized IF signal generation. GNSS digitized IF signal generator consists of five main modules which are GNSS Satellite Orbit Simulation Module, Navigation Message Generation Module, Error Generation Module, GNSS IF Signal Generation Module, and Message & Signal Steering Module. We verified the signal generated by the GNSS signal generation algorithm using software receiver for generation of signal brother to real GNSS signal.

In a satellite time management system, the GPS-based clock synchronization technique[1] has the merits of precision time management by knowing the time difference or the error between the OBT(On Board Time) of the internal processors and GPS time every second. It can be realized employing the DPLL(Digital Phase Loop Lock) and FEP(Front End Processor) circuitry for the clock synchronization[2]. In this paper, a refined DPLL & FEP scheme is proposed to provide the precision, stability and robustness of the operation, which is to compensate the errors and noise of the GPS signal, and also to cope with the case when the GPS signal is lost due to several reasons. The simulation and HIL (Hardware In the Loop) test results using the FM(Flight Model) in the course of KOMPSAT-2(Korea Multi Purpose Satellite-2) design and development are illustrated to demonstrate the salient features of this methodology.

This paper contains the signal receiving algorithm for Galileo E5 AltBOC signal and the development of Galileo E5 signal receiving software. The software runs the process from signal acquisition to extracting measurement data to get navigation solution. It uses logged IF data file as an input. In signal acquisition stage, 1ms and delayed 1ms data are used for reducing correlation ross from secondary code and navigation bit conversion. Signal tracking stage is made of two stages which are coarse tracking and fine tracking. It is for taking advantage of AltBOC characteristic and resolving ambiguity problem due to BOC modulation. The functions of software are verified by signal processing using logged IF data from commercial GNSS simulator.
