In this study, it was evaluated that the 3D tracking accuracy of basketball zone track line by real time GNSS satellite positioning methods which are VRS (Virtual Reference System), DGPS (Marine Differential GPS) and PP (Point Positioning) methods. The results of comparison between three methods over horizontal track of basketball zone, VRS, DGPS and PP methods showed ${\pm}$ several cm, ${\pm}$ m, and ${\pm}$ 2m horizontal position accuracy compared with real size respectively. And also, the grade and height deviation of the checking points on basketball zone by VRS method is very similar to the real grade and height, but results by DGPS and PP methods showed big variation and deviation in each case. We expected that VRS method using GNSS reference network will be a very useful tool compared with single based RTK method in real time accurate positioning such as precision construction fields, especially.

Purposes: This study was to validate the Robotic Smart Work System that can provides better working conditions and high productivity in unstructured environments like bio-industry, based on a tele-operation system for fruit harvesting with low cost 3-D positioning system on the laboratory level. Methods: For the Robotic Smart Work System for fruit harvesting and cultivation management in agriculture, a vision based tele-operating system and 3-D position information are key elements. This study proposed Robotic Smart Farming, an agricultural version of Robotic Smart Work System, and validated a 3-D position information system with a low cost omni camera and a laser marker system in the lab environment in order to get a vision based tele-operating system and 3-D position information. Results: The tasks like harvesting of the fixed target and cultivation management were accomplished even if there was a short time delay (30 ms ~ 100 ms). Although automatic conveyor works requiring accurate timing and positioning yield high productivity, the tele-operation with user's intuition will be more efficient in unstructured environments which require target selection and judgment. Conclusions: This system increased work efficiency and stability by considering ancillary intelligence as well as user's experience and knowhow. In addition, senior and female workers will operate the system easily because it can reduce labor and minimized user fatigue.

In this paper, the performance of ranging measurement, which is generated using two receiver clock offsets in one receiver, was analyzed. A spoofer transmits a counterfeited spoofing signal which is similar to the GPS signal with hostile purposes, so the same tracking technique can be applied to the spoofing signal. The multi-correlator can generate two receiver clock offsets in one receiver. The difference between these two clock offsets consists of the path length from the spoofer to the receiver and the delay of spoofer system. Thus, in this paper, the ranging measurement was evaluated by the spoofer localization performance based on the time-of-arrival (TOA) technique. The results of simulation and real-world experiments show that the position and the system clock offset of the spoofer could be estimated successfully.

Background: Most cases of facial asymmetry involve yaw deformity, and determination of the yaw correction level is very difficult. Methods: We use three-dimensional soft tissue simulation to determine the yaw correction level. This three-dimensional simulation is based on the addition of cephalometric prediction to gradual yaw correction. Optimal yaw correction is determined visually, and an intermediate splint is fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing. Application of positioning devices and the performance of horseshoe osteotomy are advisable. Results: With this procedure, accurate repositioning of jaws was confirmed and patients obtained fairly good facial contour. Conclusions: This procedure is a promising method for a widespread, predictable treatment of facial asymmetry.

Jamming countermeasures are used to decrease or prevent the impact of intentional jamming applied to degrade the quality of information provided by a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver. The maximum performance of jamming countermeasure can be obtained only when a proper technique is applied according to the type of jammer. This paper suggests a jamming identification technique for providing information regarding the type of jamming. The center frequency and bandwidth of jammer signal are inconsistent and may change according to time, and thus a spectral correlation function and wavelet coherence were considered in order to analyze the signal in the time and frequency space. Because the two characteristics derive different analysis results, two different identification techniques were suggested and the performances thereof were analyzed. Numerical results show that the two identification techniques have relative advantages and disadvantages as to time consumed and performance. The suggested methods can sufficiently identify the jammer before the GNSS receiver becomes inoperable because of jamming.

Atmospheric water vapor is a key variable in numerical weather prediction (NWP) models, but it is a crucial factor to limit the accuracy of high-precision GPS positioning technique. For both issues, knowledge about the amount of water vapor is extremely important. In this study, we perform a simulation study to utilize GPS signals through a developed tomographic scheme to retrieve 3D structure of atmospheric wet refractivity, which may be assimilated into NWP models for advancing forecasting or position calculation for improving GPS positioning accuracy. For the purpose of knowing the absolute accuracy of the developed tomographic method, a well-defined temporal and spatial varying state of atmospheric profile is utilized. Under such circumstance, several factors that may influence the retrievals can be easily examined and their impacts may be clearly quantified. They include the values of the positional dilution of precision (PDOP) factors of the GPS signals, ... etc. Based upon the use of a variety spectrum of adjustable factors, many interesting findings are obtained. For example, the more is the number of the observed GPS signals the better becomes the retrievals as expected. Also, the smaller is the PDOP value the better becomes the retrievals.

The U-statistic method is one of the most important structural methods to separate the anomaly from background. It considers the location of samples and carries out the statistical analysis of the data without judging from a geochemical point of view and tries to separate subpopulations and determine anomalous areas. In the present study, 3D U-statistic method has been applied for the first time through the three-dimensional (3D) modeling of an ore deposit. In order to achieve this purpose, 3D U-statistic is applied on the data (Fe grade) resulted from the drilling network in Baghak mine, central part of the Sangan iron mines (in Khorassan Razavi Province, Iran). Afterward, results from applying 3D U-statistic method are used for 3D modeling of the iron mineralization. Results show that the anomalous values are well separated from background so that the determined samples as anomalous are not dispersed and according to their positioning, denser areas of anomalous samples could be considered as anomaly areas. And also, final results (3D model of iron mineralization) show that output model using this method is compatible with designed model for mining operation. Moreover, seen that U-statistic method in addition for separating anomaly from background, could be very efficient for the 3D modeling of different ore type.

The safety of gas utilities is intimidated by many causes. Among them, subsidence is a dominant cause to decrease the safety of gas utilities. So it is very important to monitor the displacement of subsidence. The purpose of this study is to on-line monitor the subsidence of gas utilities using Static GPS(Global Positioning System)technique. Static GPS technique, which is one of various GPS techniques and originally applied to monitor the crustal activity, was applied for two gas station in Korea Gas Corporation. Prior to applying this technique to the field, i.e, gas station, a preliminary test was peformed to confirm the accuracy of this technique. As a result, it was proved that this technique can measure the displacement of gas utilities three dimensionally by sub-millimeter. After getting confirmation of GPS technique, we applied this technique for two gas stations and monitored the amount of subsidence during 5 months. As a result of field test, we can conclude that the gas stations was subsiding several millimeters in a year.
