차량의 무인화에 대한 관심이 증대하면서 자율 주행 문제의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 현재 전역적인 차량 위치는 GPS에 도움을 받고 있지만 도심 고층 빌딩 밀집 지역에서 GPS 신호가 불안해지는 멀티 패스 페이딩 현상에 대한 대안 및 터널을 통과할 때 GPS 신호가 단절되는 구간에 대한 대안이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 MEMS 기반의 관성 센서를 제작하고 이를 이용하여 차량의 주행 모드를 자동으로 판별한 뒤 각 상황에 알맞은 칼만 필터를 설계하여 차량 위치를 파악하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 실제 임베디드 시스템에 이식되어 10Hz로 동작함을 확인하였고 GPS 음영 지역에서 3분 이내에는 GPS 오차 범위 내에서 차량 위치를 파악할 수 있음을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

Ideas providing an optimal car route using current traffic condition, maintaining the current location and the history of driven route of a car in the main central office, in where GPS signals transmitted from the driving cars are received, have been proposed. Since GPS signals occurred in certain time interval instead of all GPS signals are transmitted from the car due to the cost of transmission, an algorithm that is able to recover the missing GPS signals is required. In this paper, an efficient algorithm, which finds the driven route and the current location of a car fast, is proposed. To verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, it is applied to the various real GIS map and it turns out to be very effective.

The travel behavior should be analysed microscopically for the traffic management of urban street. The car following theory which found out the correlation between the lead and the following vehicles is being widely used as basic data in many fields. As the vehicle position and its speed information can be received by GPS, this technique is recently applying to the various fields. For the case study the travel data were collected with two vehicles equipped with GPS receiver. The moving distance was calculated by the collected location data every 2 seconds and the speed variation was checked. And this study analysed and compared the acceleration and deceleration speed between the lead and the following vehicle. Finally, Regression model about the relationship between the acceleration and deceleration speed and the acceleration and deceleration distance was constructed. This model could be helpful for the road design and the regulation for the safe traffic management.

Nowadays, the combined land navigation system using GPS(Global Positioning System) and DR(Deduced Reckoning), etc. has been used. Although GPS is popular with the land navigation system, this is not useful for the kinematic positioning of the vehicles in the urban canyon because of its few satellites. Thus, this study deals with the kinematic positioning of the vehicles with the combined GPS/GLONASS(GLObal Navigation Satellite System) to compliment the drawbacks of GPS. So the kinematic positioning of the vehicles can be performed constantly by the combined GPS/GLONASS based on the high acquisition rate of data with the help of GLONASS despite of many obstacles and few satellites tracked in the test sites. Consequently, the combined GPS/GLONASS can be applicable to the control of traffic flow and the effective management of read system.

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).

Car Navigation System with Global Positioning System (GPS) can display position direction and the shortest cut of one's destination. The position datum for GPS in World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS-84) coordinates system need to transform Bessel coordinates system and process Map projection. Since 1987, GPS has used the WGS-84. WGS-84 is a geocentric equipotential ellipsoid of revolution which is defined four parameters. In this study, by comparing the digitized topographical map with the digital map of GPS datum we can consider the technique of WGS84 digital map.

GPS adapter kit (GAK) is a GPS/INS guided range extension system to improve the accuracy and availability of existing dumb bombs. In this paper, a van test result of GPS/INS navigation module (NM) for guided bomb with GAK has been presented. The NM consists of a commercial MEMS IMU, embedded GPS receiver and navigation computer unit (NCU). The GPS receiver of NM was designed to use multiple antennas for satellite visibility and GPS attitude determination. The real-time navigation software was designed by modularized structure to guarantee the maintainability and extensibility. In order to evaluate the performance of the NM, a van test was preformed by using a high performance INS - Honeywell H-726 MAPS(Modular Azimuth Position System).The van test results show that the GAK NM with GPS attitude measurement gives better navigation performance than a conventional GPS/INS integration and good coasting capabilities under jamming environment.

Mobile Mapping System can be defined as vehicle mapping system which collects rapidly spatial data by integrated Gps/digital imaging system. Kinematic positioning by GPS is essential technology of Mobile Mapping System. This paper aims at analysing the accuracy and efficiency of kinematic positioning by GPS platformed on moving vehicle. For the purpose, roads were surveyed by vehicle/kinematic GPS. The results show that vehicle/kinematic GPS can measure spatial position faster, and still maintain a reasonable accuracy. But inertial navigation system and GPS should be integrated to compute continuous vehicle track and overcome gaps by blocked satellite signals for the more accurate positioning.

현재 차량 위치 추적 시 사용빈도가 가장 많은 방법은, 지도상에 자신의 위치를 수치로 보여주는 GPS 수신기를 사용하여 지도상 실외의 위치를 측위 한다. 위의 GPS를 이용한 내비게이션은 차량의 진행방향, 출발 도착 지점을 설정하여 차량을 운행한다. 또한 GPS 음영지역 및 신호 지연의 문제를 해결하기 위한 지자기센서와 가속도센서를 사용하는 시스템도 있다. 그러나 센서를 활용할 경우 차량의 방향 정보를 얻을 수 있지만 음영 및 신호 왜곡 시간이 길어질 경우 정확한 차량의 위치를 판단 할 수 없다. 즉, GPS의 신호에 오류가 있을 경우 차량의 이동거리를 알 수 없으므로 차량의 회전 정보는 효용 가치가 떨어진다. 따라서 이를 보정하기 위해서는 정확한 차량의 위치를 판단할 수 있는 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 GPS의 문제를 해결하기 위해 차량의 속도정보와 스마트폰의 지자기센서를 활용한 실외 위치 추적 시스템과 WiFi 정보를 활용한 차량용 WPS시스템을 설계 하였다.

Recently, navigation system is used to inform users of vehicle location and driving direction, moving distance and so on. This navigation uses GPS sensor for current location determination. The GPS sensor will determinate current coordinates by using triangulation algorithm. This characteristic bring about that the GPS signal is not available in the shadow region such as tunnel and urban canyon. Moreover, Even though the signal is available, inherent positional error rate of the GPS often results in the dislocation of vehicle. To solve, these problems, a new positioning system is proposed in the paper. The System utilizes geomagnetic sensors of smartphone, speed information of CAN of vehicle though bluetooth and WiFi APs for GPS shadow area. The experimental test shadows that the proposed system using multiple data is able to determine the position of vehicle in GPS shadow areas.
