The detection performances, in this paper, are derived according to combination of the multiband GNSS signals in broadband jamming environments. The detection probabilities depending on the false alarm probabilities are derived and presented via Monte-Carlo simulation under the assumption as follows: the GNSS signals are perfectly orthogonal and simultaneously received by the receiver using non-coherent correlation.

In this paper, we developed the hardware GPS signal generator for generating a satellite navigation signal synchronized with Live GPS signal signals and analyzed the performance of signal genterator thorough the experiment For a hardware implementation of the GPS navigation signal synchronous generator, the GPS module may receive a GPS signal in order to generate the same signal as the operation that is transmitted from the current GPS satellite and the synchronized time information and the GPS satellites using the Novatel Inc. OEMStar.In. For generating the GPS synchronization signal, the GPS navigation signal generator was adjusted to a reference clock using the GPS clock synchronous information provided by the GPS receiving module and GPS signals also generated in consideration of the delay of the internal hardware of the generator. In this paper, we analyzed the effect of the receiver via the signal switching between Live GPS signal and generates a signal to measure the performance of the GPS navigation synchronization signal generator. It was confirmed that by the seamless operation of the signal even the moment that the switching of the generated signal from Live GPS signal has occurred through experimentation.

This research was focused on the analysis of navigation parameters from the received L1, C/A signal of the recent GPS, which has advanced with the SA policy change and the GPS modernization policy by the United States. It was done as a first step study for a comprehensive analysis on the multiple satellite navigation systems which will be adding or separating GPS signal. In particular, the statistical analysis on the GDOP change and positional accuracy based on the geocentric and spherical coordinate systems were investigated with carrier- to-noise ratio and the satellite geometry, The obtained GDOP values of HDOP, PDOP, VDOP are 0.5, 1.2, and 1.1, respectively in deviation. In addition, the positioning accuracies with these GDOP values were analyzed in the ellipsoidal and ECEF coordinates.

The effects of reflected wave of the sea on pseudolite ranging accuracy are analysed in this paper, when a pseudolite navigation system is used for wide area outdoor applications such as aircraft and vessels positioning. Methods for minimizing the influence of sea surface reflection wave were proposed. The methods include the appropriate correlator in pseudolite navigation system through the correlation performance comparison analysis in receiver design, the use of the technology of multiple antennas, and locating the transmitting station antenna on an appropriate position. From the results of experiments, the method of locating the antenna position shows the most reliable performance against the effect of surface reflection wave. The analysis results of the ranging accuracy improvement are addressed, when the multipath caused by sea surface reflection exists.

This paper describes the RF(Radio Frequency) interference on the GNSS receiver due to the S-band signals transmitted from the transmitters in the Test Launch Vehicle, and analyzes the cause of the RF interference. Due to the S-band signals that have relatively high power levels compared with GNSS signals, an LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) in the active GNSS antenna was saturated, and the intermodulation signal within GNSS in-bands was produced in the LNA whenever two S-band signals were received from the GNSS antenna. For these reasons, the C/N0 of the satellite signals in the GNSS receiver was attenuated severely. The design of the LNA was changed in order to protect the RF interference due to the S-band signals and the suppression capability of the RF interference was confirmed in the new LNA through the comparison of the old LNA.

In order to verify the operability of a GPS receiver which is one of the KSLV-I onboard electrical equipments under the vacuum conditions, this paper describes the operation methods and performance results of the GPS receiver under the thermal-vacuum and vacuum environments. The damages and degradations of electrical parts of the GPS receiver caused by the pressure change and high-degree vacuum conditions are analyzed in terms of tracking and navigation capabilities through the signal-to-noise ratio and navigation error.

When a Ship sails in the ocean, it is significant to find one's position for safe navigation. Most of ships have been using GPS navigation since its development after 1990's. The celestial navigation was used as the navigation method when sailing in the ocean, but time-consuming process such as complicated calculation and plotting the result on chart diminished its utilization. The thesis explains convenience and utilization of existing celestial navigation by resolving challenges it has. As a way of enhancing the celestial navigation, the author developed a software which incudes a numerical formula based on the previous calculation process. When a navigator inputs the altitude of sun, GHA and dec into computer while sailing, the position of the ship will be displayed as the coordinates. The improved method thus reaffirmed the usefulness of the celestial navigation and will greatly serve as means of navigation in the occurrence of distress. Abstract should be placed here.

We propose a guidance law based on pursuit-evasion game solutions, and analyze its performance. The game solutions are obtained from the pursuit-evasion game solver developed by Tahk. The initial value of the game solution is used for guidance, and then the pursuit-evasion game is solved again at the next time step. In this respect, the proposed guidance laws are similar to the approach of model predictive control. The proposed guidance method is compared with proportional navigation guidance for a pursuit-evasion scenario, in which the evader always tries to maximize the capture time. According to the comparison, it has larger a capture set than ones of proportional navigation guidance law.

This paper focuses on a performance analysis of TRN among various nonlinear filtering methods. In a TRN research, extended Kalman filter(EKF) is a basic estimation algorithm. In this paper, iterated EKF(IEKF), EKF with stochastic linearization(SL), and unscented Kalman filter(UKF) algorithms are introduced to compare navigation performance with original EKF. In addition to introduced sequential filters, bank of Kalman filters method, which is one of the batch method, is also presented. Finally, by simulating an artificial aircraft mission, EKF with SL was chosen as the most consistent filter in the introduced sequential filters. Also, results suggested that the bank of Kalman filters can be alternative for TRN, when a fast convergence of navigation solution is needed.
