Starting with maritime DGPS base stations of Palmido, Ochongdo which have been operated since 1999, truly our nation has become the most powerful country possessed with total of 17 DGNSS base stations in the field of DGNSS operation infrastructure. This paper examines into the country's DGNSS services as measuring the service range of the maritime DGPS base stations in the domestic ferry lines which sections are from Jeju to Incheon, from Busan to Jeju, from Jeju to Nokdong, the propagation characteristics of the radio waves of 300 kHz bands on sea and land path. As a result of identifying the service range of the DGPS in the sea routes of the southern sea and the western sea, the measured results of the DGPS signals are confirmed more than 100 NM(recommended service range). It can be possible to practical use the position information, which is safe navigation and various marine traffic management systems. It will be useful an expansion of maritime DGPS reference station in the near future.

DBS is utilized as very useful media in information-oriented society because it covers wide service area and provide high quality services. But DBS needs skill that can receive DBS signal at move. In this paper, it is considered a development of a device to receive DBS and design of a low noise downconverter that use tracking antenna to receive DBS at mobiles unit and ships which navigate in Korea peninsula coast. The structure of dual phase LNB is composed of LNA, BPF, oscillator, mixer, and IF amplifier. And for the position tracking, two input-output phase performed in phase. Measured results showed good performance that with respect to input signal 11.7 GHz~12.2 GHz, noise figure is 0.87 dBmax and conversion gain 62 dB, temperature characterization ${\pm}400$ kHz in respect to - 30 to $60^{\circ}C$, and phase noise -101 dBc/Hz in respect to offset 100 kHz.

In this paper, Gaussian probability distribution model based multi-sensor data fusion algorithm is proposed for a vehicular location awareness system. Conventional vehicular location awareness systems are operated by GPS (Global Positioning System). However, the conventional system is not working in the indoor of building or urban area where the receiver is difficult to receive the signal from satellites. A method which is combined GPS and UWB (Ultra Wide-Band) has developed to improve this problem. However, vehicular is difficult to receive seamless location information since the measurement systems by both GPS and UWB convert the vehicle's movement information separately at each sensor. In this paper, normalized probability distribution model based Hybrid UWB/GPS is proposed by utilizing GPS location data and UWB sensor data. Therefore the proposed system provides information with seamless and location flexible properties. The proposed system tested by Ubisense and Asen GPS in the $12m{\times}8m$ outdoor environments. As a result, the proposed system has improved performance for accurateness and connection ability between devices to support various CNS (Car Navigation System).

A CMOS 6-bit 100MSPS ADC for DBS receiver is designed. The proposed ADC is composed of folding block, latch block, and digital block. The cascode interpolating block and kickback reduced latch are proposed with a high speed architecture. To verify the performance of ADC, simulations are carried out by HSPICE. The ADC achieves a clock frequency of 100MHz with a power dissipation of 40mW for 3 V supply voltage. The active chip area is $1500{\mu}m{\times}1000{\mu}m$with $0.65{\mu}m$ 2-poly 2-metal CMOS process. Further, INL and DNL are within ${\pm}0.6LSB$, ${\pm}0.5LSB$, respectively. SNDR is about 33dB at 10MHz input frequency.

The capability of accurate positioning and tracking is necessary to implement an unmanned autonomous driving system. The moving-baseline GPS Technique is a promising candidate to mitigate positioning errors of conventional GPS system. It provides accurate positioning data based on the phase difference between received signals from multiple GPS antennas mounted on the same platform. In this paper, we propose a dual-band dual-circularly-polarized antenna suitable for the moving-baseline GPS. The proposed antenna operates at GPS L1 and L2 bands, and fed by the side of the antenna instead of the bottom. The antenna is firstly designed by calculating theoretical values of key parameters, and then optimized by means of 3D full-wave simulation software. Simulation and measurement results show that the optimized antenna offers 6.1% and 3.7% bandwidth at L1 and L2, respectively, with axial ratio bandwidth of more than 1%. The size of the antenna is $73mm{\times}73mm{\times}6.4mm$, which is small and low-profile.

In this paper, GNSS(global navigation satellite system) to monitoring the fine for the construction of structure displacement based on satellite communications signals of GNSS. At the same time on USN(ubiquitous sensor network) and proposed a new approach to precise positioning by analyzing the results. A major construction structure for the safety diagnosis and prevent disaster from the risk of collapse. Precision measurement methods to mm level GNSS in that case and experiments in the application of new technologies that can most commonly used to replace the current through the permanent.

In DVB-S3 standard of satellite broadcasting systems, FTN technique is applied to LDPC codes with (1+7) PSK modulation. In standard, BICM-ID and BCJR decoding method are considered to alleviate performance degradation due to FTN processing. BICM-ID method improves performance by calculating a new LLR from hard-decision value of decoder output. BCJR also improves performance by calculating forward and backward matrix each other. However these two methods require high computational complexity. Therefore this paper proposed modified decoding method in order to reduce computational complexity without performance degradation.

LiDAR, unlike satellite imagery and aerial photographs, which provides irregularly distributed three-dimensional coordinates of ground surface, enables three-dimensional modeling. In this study, urban area was classified based on 3D information collected by LiDAR. Morphological and spatial properties are determined by the ratio of ground and non-ground point that are estimated with the number of ground reflected point data of LiDAR raw data. With this information, the residential and forest area could be classified in terms of height and density of trees. The intensity of the signal is distinguished by a statistical method, Jenk's Natural Break. Vegetative area (high or low density) and non-vegetative area (high or low density) are classified with reflective ratio of ground surface.

High resolution synthetic aperture radar image could be sensitive to the various parameters of the payload, platform, and ground system. In this paper, a parameter based SAR simulator is presented for two-dimensional image formation and image quality analysis. Functional modules are implemented by Matalb code and GUI for the flexibility and expandability. Main function of this simulator includes the SAR input signal generation, range-doppler algorithm(RDA) based SAR image formation, and the SAR image quality analysis which is relevant to the SAR system design parameters. This simulator can effectively be used for the SAR image quality performance evaluation, which can be applicable to the airborne as well as spaceborne SAR system design and analysis.

We studied a structure of the Kunsan basin in the Yellow Sea using ship-borne magnetic data and altimetry satellite-derived gravity data provided from the Scripps institution of oceanography in 2006. The gravity data was analyzed via power spectrum analysis and gravity inversion, and the magnetic data via analytic signal technique, pseudo-gravity transformation, and its inversion. The results showed that the depth of bedrock tended to increase as we approached the center of the South Central Sag in Kunsan basin and that the maximum and minimum of its depth were estimated to be about 6-8 km and 2 km, respectively. Inaddition, the observed high anomaly of gravity and magnetism was attributed to the intrusion of igneous rock of higher density than the surrounding basement rock in the center of South Central Sag, which was consistent with the interpretation of seismic data obtained in the same region.
