The present work addresses the challenging problem of coordinating power allocation with interference management in multi-robot networks by applying the promising expansion capabilities of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and full duplex systems, which achieves it for maximizing the throughput of networks under the impacts of Doppler frequency shifts and external jamming. The proposed power allocation with interference coordination formulation accounts for three types of the interference, including cross-tier, co-tier, and mixed-tier interference signals with cluster head nodes operating in different full-duplex modes, and their signal-to-noise-ratios are respectively derived under the impacts of Doppler frequency shifts and external jamming. In addition, various optimization algorithms, including two centralized iterative optimization algorithms and three decentralized optimization algorithms, are applied for solving the complex and non-convex combinatorial optimization problem associated with the power allocation and interference coordination. Simulation results demonstrate that the overall network throughput increases gradually to some degree with increasing numbers of MIMO antennas. In addition, increasing the number of clusters to a certain extent increases the overall network throughput, although internal interference becomes a severe problem for further increases in the number of clusters. Accordingly, applications of multi-robot networks require that a balance should be preserved between robot deployment density and communication capacity.

Among the various fields in the communications, navigation, and surveillance/air traffic management (CNS/ATM) scheme, the surveillance field, which includes an automatic dependent surveillance - broadcast (ADS-B) system and a multilateration (MLAT) system, is implemented using satellite and digital communications technology. These systems provide better performance than radar, but still incur position error. To reduce the error, we propose an efficient information fusion method called the reweighted convex combination method for ADS-B and MLAT systems. The reweighted convex combination method improves aircraft tracking performance compared to the original convex combination method by readjusting the weights given to these systems. In this paper, we prove that the reweighted convex combination method always provides better performance than the original convex combination method. Performance from the fusion of ADS-B and MLAT improves an average of 51.51% when compared to the original data.

In this paper, a prototype of GPS jammer localization system for precise landing is developed. The jammer localization system consists of the four jamming signal receivers for collecting RF signal, one central tracking station for estimating jammer position, and one monitoring station for displaying estimated position on the map. In order to estimate jammer location TDOA and AOA algorithm are introduced, and the function and design parameters of the developed prototype are proposed. CW, DSSS, Swept CW jamming signals were generated and used. From the results, it can be confirmed that developed system meets the performance goal.

In this paper, a new guidance law for a short-range air-to-air missile with constant thrust is presented. It is essentially based on the concept of proportional navigation. First, the theoretical guidance law is derived. Then, we show the technique for practical implementation of the guidance law. By a computer simulation, it is shown that the new guidance law gives better performance than the conventional proportional navigation.

Future air navigation system (FANS) Committee overcomes the limitations of traditional systems, the development of worldwide new system that allows the development of air traffic management have been determined to be necessary. In order to accommodate the rapid increase in aircraft traffic and maximize the safe air navigation efficiency, ICAO is recommending a new performance-based communications and surveillance (PBCS) system. However, although utilizing wireless data link in the case of korea currently, the introduction of the PBCS is not performed normally. In this paper, we review the concept of PBCS, and aviation developed countries look to the applied case of PBCS. It also analyzes trends and status and problems of Korea and introduce future policy directions for CNS/ATM system improvement.

Modern aircraft air navigation has been changed from the conventional air navigation aid to utilizing Global Navigation Satellite System. For the air navigation of fast moving aircraft, GNSS required extremely high accuracy and reliability. This study reviews the basic concept of Satellite Based Augmentation System which is discussed in the International Working Group of International Civil Aviation Organization and status of some SBAS leading State's case. In addition to that, a progress of SBAS development and implementation in the Republic of Korea was reviewed with pointing out of general hurdles and counter measures.

This paper proposes a low-power waveform for a long-range air-to-air data link. In the case of an air-to-air data link, data communication is performed in the air and high Doppler shift may occur depending on the flight speed, so a waveform based on the non-coherent method is suitable. In addition, since it is mounted on an aircraft, it must have low power characteristics. This paper proposes a waveform that combines a modulation technique based on frequency modulation and pulse position modulation that can turn on/off the transmission signal. As a result of the performance analysis, it was shown that the performance was suitable for air-to-air operation while showing low power characteristics.

Radio navigation aids are very important elements to provide information necessary for safe navigation using radio waves. Recently, the number of radio equipment using radio waves is increasing, and the air frequency interference by adjacent channels is very high.

And we were analyzed the geographical separation standard for implementation of analysis program. Also, we implemented a program for the geographical separation distance analysis that applying international standards and recommended practices.

The quality of navigation service is determined by the accuracy of the available data. For existing navigation services, a full map update is provided in order to keep the map data of mobile devices current. As content and services of mobile devices have recently been diversifying, the size of map data managed in mobile devices has increased, reaching several gigabytes in size. It generally takes tens of minutes to write several gigabytes of data into mobile device storage. For traditional navigation systems, a complicated storage structure called a physical storage format (PSF) is used to assure maximum processing performance of map data in mobile devices within limited resources. Consequently, even though modified navigation map data actually affects only a portion of a map, the full map data is updated because partial updates are not possible. In this paper, a navigation system is studied to solve this difficult partial map update problem. The map air update navigation system, which is the result of this study, provides real-time partial map updating using wireless communications.
