하드웨어 방식의 DGPS 기준국 시스템을 개선한 차세대 DGPS 기준국 아키텍처인 소프트웨어 DGPS 기준국 시스템은 하드웨어 방식에서 발견된 많은 문제점을 개선한다. 그러나, 초기의 소프트웨어 DGPS 기준국 시스템은 차세대 아키텍처를 충실히 따르고 있기는 하지만 소프트웨어의 구조에 단점을 내포하고 있어 실제 적용에 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 소프트웨어 DGPS 기준국 시스템의 단점을 보완하고 구조를 개선한 새로운 아키텍처를 설계하고 이 아키텍처를 기반으로 한 실제 소프트웨어를 구현한다.

DGPS Reference Station the national infrastructure generates the DGPS correction information for Differential GPS. Currently, South Korea operates the software based DGPS reference station using the next generation DGPS architecture in order that upgrade the hardware based DGPS reference station. However the software based DGPS reference station proposed by USCG has not changed just a form of its structure but intimate architecture. Accordingly, It can't strengthen the advantages of software based architecture. In this paper, I will propose a new software architecture design that is integrated with DGPS reference station and integrity monitor. This architecture is more simple than existing one so can use the maritime DGPS reference station which is required more simple structure.

Based on the radio wave propagation measurement of DGPS land-based reference stations, the DGPS service coverage and signal quality in the receiving points are analyzed in this paper. The DGPS signal strength and SNR in the receiving point are measured in the winter and summer season, respectively. In case of DGPS reference station that can not provide the designed service coverage, the solution to improve the service coverage is presented in this paper. Almost all DGPS reference station except reference station with low ground conductivity or mountainous terrain provide the DGPS service coverages of 80% or more of the designed service area. The service coverages of DGPS reference stations can be improved to pre-designed service area in case of installation management of DGPS site on the plain terrain and good ground conductivity. It is necessary to get the high efficiency of transmitting antenna to improve the service area.

The DGPS reference station is a national infrastructure generating GPS correctional information and transmitting the signal for Differential GPS. Currently, Korea has applied and operated the software-based DGPS reference station as a standard of the next generation proposed by the USCG in order to improve the hardware-based DGPS reference system. However, software-based DGPS reference station proposed by USCG was changed in software method, only for form. There is no advantage to changing software-based because the most critical part of architecture has not been improved. In this paper, we have designed a new software-based marine DGPS station architecture that a reference station software and a monitor station were integrated. The new marine DGPS station architecture based on software is a more simplified structure than it used to be and can be utilized in the DGPS reference station.

The Korean DGPS station transmits the 200 bps GPS enhancement signal using the MSK modulation in frequency range of 283.5 kHz to 325 kHz. The land-based stations of 6 sites provide the service area of 80 km with the output power of 500 W. The ocean-based stations of 11 sites provide the output power of 300 W, which provide the DGPS service to 185 kM. Some places are serviced from two or three DGPS stations. The interferences among the DGPS stations using the high power can be occurred. Also, the performances of the user terminasl in dual service area can be degraded. In this paper, the protection ratios for the DGPS service are defined. Using the MF wave propagation model, the interferences among the DGPS stations and the adjacent wireless ground stations are analyzed. Also, the performances of DGPS user terminals are analyzed in the viewpoint of interference.

Based on the radio wave measurement of korean ocean-based DGPS by season, in this paper, the service coverages of ocean-based DGPS reference stations were analyzed according to the climate and season. The signal strengths and signal-to-noise ratios in the land service areas that are provided by ocean-based DGPS reference stations were measured. The ocean-based DGPS reference station except reference stations on the mountainous terrain and the low ground conductivity provide more than 68% service area in comparison with the designed land service coverage providing by the ocean-based DGPS reference stations. To provide the designed service area that is unrelated to a season, it is necessary to install and operate the DGPS reference station with good ground conductivity and high efficiency antenna. Also, the poor service regions which is generated by obstacles of electric wave on pathway can be resolved by the double service area providing by land-based DGPS reference stations.

In order to prepare for increasing performance requirement for Differential Global Navigation Satellite System (DGNSS) services of International Maritime Organization (IMO) and International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA), this paper focuses on design of network-based Automatic Identification System (AIS) reference station system that can perform the functionality of Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) reference station in an AIS base station system. AIS base station receives the differential corrections from the DGPS reference station, and it is not a method for transmitting the received differential corrections to onboard AIS units, but it is a method for generating the optimized differential corrections for onboard AIS units in AIS coverage. Therefore this paper proposes an algorithm for generating the differential corrections at AIS reference station, and performs the performance assessment of the proposed algorithm based on DGPS correction data measured from a DGPS reference station. Finally this paper discusses the test results and efficiency of the proposed system.

The DGPS systems that is a GPS augmentation system were installed for ocean- and land-service. The ocean-based reference station of 11 site and the land-based reference station of 6 sites are operating for ocean- and land-service. Although the land-based reference stations provide the output power of 500W, the service shadow regions are occurred due to mountain lands and building area. In this paper, the service coverages for land-based reference stations are analyzed in conditions of output power enhancements of reference station. The service shadow areas are deduced from service coverages of land-based reference stations and ocean-based reference stations. The medium frequency-band wave propagation models are considered as DGPS wave propagation model. The service coverages are analyzed by considering the compensated ground surface-conductivity.
