Recent technological advances in wireless networks and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have led to the development of different types of mini-UAVs and their utilizations in various ways. This study endeavors to develop a low-cost mini-UAV with autonomous flight capability, in order to obtain geospatial information of a small or medium-sized area, and also assess its flight stability by comparing the predetermined flight paths against the actual flight paths. Based on a post-development flight test, stable flight has been proven achievable as follows: the maximum endurance speed is 1 hour, the flying distance is 50km, the horizontal accuracy of flight paths is about ${\pm}6{\sim}8m$, and the altitude accuracy is about ${\pm}8m$. Therefore, it is deemed that high-resolution images which can be utilized for geospatial information are obtainable. This indicates that a UAV flying at an altitude of 200m can acquire images across a $2km{\times}3km$ area on the ground within 25 minutes, which validates its high usability for obtaining high-solution images at low altitudes in the future.

In this paper, we implemented the sign board that is able to display the located based information by adding the GPS module to the board that display the DARC information and user`s message. The global positioning information from GPS module gets more correct by DGPS from DARC module. This information help this system select the located based information for broadcasting. From the experiment, we confirmed that this system displayed user`s data, DARC information data and located based information.

Signal acquisition performance is evaluated for the tiered polyphase code (TPC) which is proposed as a ranging signal structure for global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs). Compared to the tiered code (TC) which is adopted in European Union's GALILEO system, the TPC shows robust performance to frequency offset in acquiring signal. Therefore the TPC should have SNR gain in signal acquisition and can reduce computational complexity in the receiver. In this paper, we compare the signal detection probability of the TC and TPC under the same receiver architecture and GALILEO E5a-I signal parameters.

In this paper, an automatic cruise system of unmanned boat was developed for surveying water depth in reservoir using accurate location information. Using global satellite navigation system(GNSS) data in real time, this unmanned system, combined with an echo sounder, can simultaneously collect location information and depth information on the reservoir. This automatic navigation system allows the automatic route generation program to automatically generate a cruise route according to the input conditions for grid sizes of 5m, 10m and 20m, and automatically controls the cruise route with high positional accuracy. The developed system was tested to verify the applicability of the selected Yonggok(Geoncheon) reservoir as a test reservoir located in Suncheon, Jeollanam-do.

In this paper, we analyze the statistical characteristic and describe the anti-interference performance of the signal for the LPI-applied GNSS using encrypted spreading code. To do this, we analyze the correlation property of encrypted sequences theoretically having various symbol sets over complex root of unity. We derive the degradation of anti-interference performance of encrypted sequences comparing with Gold and Zadoff-Chu sequences using theoretical and experimental methods.

In this paper, we introduce the considerations of pseudo range generation process of GNSS system and propose the design structure and show the simulation results applied to GPS. A Pseudo range generation simulator for GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) provides the generation function of GNSS constellations, the acquisition function of satellites position, the generation function of true range between satellites and user receiver, the generation functions for individual error features generated through the signal is travelled, and the calculation function of pseudo range. In addition, the simulator is designed to provide the output files of RINEX format.

The indoor navigation system using smart phone is a very important infrastructure technology for users' location based services in large indoor facilities. For this purpose, if the user can estimate the movement distance and direction by using the acceleration sensor and the gyro sensor built in the smartphone, the additional external environment is not necessary, which is a very useful technique. This paper deals with indoor navigation system technology that uses Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR) technology and Kalman filter on a general smartphone and allows the user to trace the position while moving the smartphone in front of his chest. In particular, an extended Kalman filter was designed to estimate the direction of movement, and its performance was verified when walking at a constant speed.

In this paper, we aim to propose a comprehensive framework for cyber threat analysis of urban air mobility (UAM) or advanced air mobility (AAM) communications, navigation, surveillance, and information system infrastructure. By examining potential vulnerabilities and threat vectors, we seek to enhance the security and resilience of UAM infrastructure. We conduct a detailed cyber threat analysis to identify and categorize various types of cyber threats, assess their impact on the CNSi systems, and evaluate the vulnerabilities within these systems that may be exploited by such threats. This analysis will provide valuable insights for stakeholders involved in the deployment and operation of UAM systems, ultimately contributing to the safe and efficient integration of urban air transportation.

오늘날 위성항법, 위성통신을 이용한 항공항법감시의 새로운 변화 가운데 국제민간항공기구(ICAO)에서 VDL(VHF Digital Link) Mode 4로 채택된 STDMA (Self-organized Time Division Multiple Access)에 관심이 증대되고 있다. 해양분야에서는 선박위치 자동인식시스템(AIS) 및 선박운행관리시스템(VTS)에서 2002년부터 적용될 예정이고, 항공분야에서는 향후 몇 년후에는 ADS-B, SMGCS에서 응용될 가능성이 높다. 본 연구에서는 STDMA를 이용한 SMGCS구현을 위한 기술개발로서 사전에 측지된 기준국으로부터 실시간으로 GPS 보정값을 생성, 전송하도록 하는 실시간 DGPS기술과 동기신호에 따라 시분할 다중접속을 구현한 소프트웨어 기반의 TDMA기술을 구현하였으며 이를 연구원내에서 차량이동 실험을 수행하여 다수의 이동국간에 측위값을 상호전송함으로써 각각의 위치를 실기간으로 파악할 수 있음을 보였다.
