As of 2012, for service-area-widening and commercialization of DGPS service, the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs has completed a DGPS service via Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting and doing experimental broadcasting. In this study, kinematic positioning tests were conducted based on DGPS service via T-DMB using low-cost GPS equipments in a dynamic environment. Standalone GPS, single-reference NDGPS via NTRIP, and virtual-reference DGPS via T-DMB surveys were conducted at the same time. And horizontal positioning errors were computed by comparing them with the result of high-precision positioning. As a result, when the DMB transmission interval was 3 seconds, horizontal positioning errors of standalone GPS, NTRIP-DGPS, and DMB-DGPS were 2.3m, 1.0m, and 0.7m, respectively. When the interval was 1 second, horizontal positioning errors were 2.0m, 1.2m, and 0.8m, respectively. Thus horizontal positioning accuracies improved with the DMB-DGPS compared to the traditional single-reference NDGPS.

Various space geodetic techniques have been developed for highly precise and cost-efficient positioning solutions. By correcting the physical phenomena near the earth’s surface, the positioning accuracy can be further improved. In this study, the vertical crustal deformation induced by the ocean tide loading was accurately estimated through GNSS absolute and relative positioning, respectively, and the tidal constituents of the results were then analyzed. In order to validate the processing accuracy, we calculated the amplitude of eight major tidal constituents from the results and compared them to the global ocean tide loading model FES2004. The experimental results showed that absolute positioning and positioning done every hour during the observation time of 2 hours, which yielded an outcome similar to the reference ocean tide loading model, were better approaches for extracting tide constituents than relative positioning. As a future study, a long-term GNSS data processing will be required in order to conduct more comprehensive analysis including an extended tidal component analysis.

Location-based services provide customized information or services according to the user's location. The existing localization schemes for outdoor environment are not applicable to the indoor localization system which requires higher accuracy of location estimation than that of the outdoor localization system. In this paper, we employ the received signal strength(RSS) to approximate the distance between a moving target and a reference point and use the triangulation method to estimate the location of the moving target for the indoor localization system in IEEE 802.15.4 wireless PAN(personal area network). For the indoor localization system, we propose a scheme which selects the best reference points to enhance the localization accuracy and adaptively reflects the changes in propagation environments of a moving target to the distance approximation. Through the implementation of the localization system, we have verified the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of the estimation accuracy.

The Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs is working on the construction of Nationwide DGPS(NDGPS) with connection to Maritime DGPS Reference Stations and if Chun-cheon Reference Station is to be completed in 2008, DGPS positioning information is available in the whole area of Republic of Korea. Therefore to promote the usage of DGPS surveying information, we measured and panalyzed the accuracy of DGPS. In real-time DGPS positioning accuracy were 0.42m of planar Root Mean Square(RMS) error in static survey and 0.48m of planar RMS error in dynamic survey. We went abreast with RTK comparison measurement. According to these results. DGPS positioning information cannot be applied directly to the GIS construction field, but GIS application fields, requiring the real-time positioning information. can take advantage of it in variable cases.

Using GPS carrier phase whose cycle ambiguities are resolved, it is possible to perform precise survey requiring centimeter-level positioning accuracy. Because of an optical illusion, we cannot recognize the exact slope of Dokaebi Road. In this paper, we performed kinematic survey experiments in order to calculate the exact slope of Dokaebi Road with high positioning accuracy of CDGPS. By post-processing experimental data using CDGPS, it was possible to generate the exact vertical trajectory of Dokaebi Road with centimeter-level accuracy.

Range-based real time localization systems require superior localization techniques as well as accurate ranging algorithms for better performance. To evaluate the ranging accuracy between two nodes in practical environments, this paper does not only present a qualitative analysis by computing a distance equation under SDS-TWR measurement model of no symmetry assumption, but also executes a quantitative evaluation by doing experiments after building up a test network employing the developed sensor node. Experimental results show that the ranging accuracy of the proposed implementation of IEEE 802.15.4a software stack is superior with smaller average error rate by 60% to one of the commercial Nanotron's reference development kit.

위치기반서비스는 기본적으로 사용자의 위치를 파악해야 한다. 측위방법은 옥외용과 옥내용으로 구분되며, 옥외용에는 GPS 방법, 이동통신망을 이용한 방법, GPS와 이동통신망을 복합적으로 활용한 방법이 있고 옥내용에는 RF 신호를 이용한 RADAR가 있다. GPS 방법은 미 국방성의 선택적 제공 때문에 큰 오차가 불가피하다. 한편 RADAR 방식은 오차가 작으나 옥내에서만 적용이 가능하다. 근래에는 대학 캠퍼스마다 무선LAN을 서비스하지 않는 곳이 없다. 본 논문은 무선LAN용 AP의 신호의 세기(RSSI)를 이용하여 정확도를 제고하는 옥외 측위방법을 제안한다. GPS를 이용한 측위와 제안하는 RSSI를 이용한 방법의 정확도를 실험적으로 비교한 결과를 소개하고, GPS 데이터와 RSSI를 함께 고려한 측위 방법과의 비교 결과도 소개한다.

Vehicle localization is one of the core technologies for autonomous driving. Image-based localization provides location information efficiently, and various related studies have been conducted. However, the image-based localization methods using feature points or lane information has a limitation that positioning accuracy may be greatly affected by road and driving environments. In this study, we propose a line segment matching framework for accurate vehicle localization. The proposed framework consists of four steps: line segment extraction, merging, overlap area detection, and MSLD-based segment matching. The proposed framework stably performed line segment matching at a sufficient level for vehicle positioning regardless of vehicle speed, driving method, and surrounding environment.

In an indoor localization method taking the lateration-based approach, the distance between a target and an AP (Anchor Point) is estimated using RSS (Received Signal Strength) measurements. Since the characteristics of a radio signal randomly vary in time and space, errors are unavoidable in distance estimation with measured RSS. Since the accuracy of distance estimation affects the localization accuracy of a lateration-based method, additional APs hearing a target have been used for localization in the literature. However, lots of experimental results show that the accuracy of a lateration-based method is improved by using carefully selected APs measuring the high quality RSSs which the distances estimated is close to the actual distances between nodes as reference APs, not using merely more APs. In this paper, we focus on selection method of reference AP and distance estimation method reflecting on environmental dynamics. We validate our method by implementing an indoor localization system and evaluating the accuracy of our method in the various experimental environments.
