우리나라에서는 1995년 5월 서해권 DGPS 보정정보 전송 서비스를 시작으로 NDGPS 기준국망 구축을 완료하고, 선박의 안전한 항행을 위해 실시간 DGPS 보정정보를 국내 연안과 도서지역에 송신하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 NDGPS와 유사한 보정정보 서비스로서 우리나라에서도 수신이 가능한 일본의 위성기반 보정위성항법체계인 MSAS와 현재 우리나라에서 VHF 대역으로 서비스하고 있는 NDGPS 의 성능을 항해장비 이용 관점에서 비교분석한다. 이를 위해 본 논문은 NDGPS 기준국과 이용자 사이의 기저거리를 기준으로 보정정보 도달시간과 수평측위 정확도를 측정한다. 그리고, NDGPS 와 MSAS 간의 성능차이와 항해장비용 보정시스템으로서 MSAS 적용 가능성에 대한 분석결과를 보인다.

The international maritime organization(IMO) has defined performance requirements for future maritime navigation through IMO resolution A.915(22) in 2001. Many DGPS systems currently providing DGPS services do not meet the performance requirements specified in IMO resolution A.915(22). The use of SBAS is considered as one of the DGPS replacement and supplementary system for coping with the increase in demand performance and providing safe positioning service. In particular, since a large amount of budget is required to rearrange the existing DGPS reference stations, a method which transmits differential corrections generated by using SBAS message has been proposed. In this paper, we compare and analyze the performance of NDGPS which is operated by the National Maritime PNT Office of the ministry of oceans and fisheries(MOF) in Korea and MSAS in Japan. Also, we verify that SBAS, as alternative and complementary system, meets the performance requirement specified in IMO resolution A.915(22).

위성항법시스템의 취약성에 따른 보완 시스템의 필요가 높아지면서, eLoran 시스템이 가장 현실적인 대안으로 인정받고 있다. 우리나라도 서해 일부 지역에서 eLoran 시스템의 테스트베드 구축 사업을 진행 중에 있다. 전 해양지역에 안정적인 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 추가적인 송신국 설치가 필요하지만. 여러가지 현실적인 이유로 인해 추진되기 어렵다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 기존의 NDGNSS 기준국을 활용한 측위기술이 개발되고 있다. 이미 운영 중인 NDGNSS 기준국을 활용하면 전 해상에서 탄력적 항법시스템 운용이 가능해질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 eLoran 시스템과 NDGNSS의 기준국을 활용한 지상파 통합항법시스템의 성능을 예측할 수 있는 시뮬레이션 툴을 제작 하였다. ITU에서 배포한 송출 주파수와 거리에 따른 신호 세기, 대기잡음 등을 고려해 Cramer-Rao Lower Bound로 수신 신호의 측정 거리 오차를 계산하였다. 또한 한빛호가 항해하면서 수집한 DGPS 신호를 통해 실질적인 대기잡음을 추정하는 방법을 사용해 기존보다 정확한 SNR 계산이 가능해졌다. 해당 결과는 추후 진행될 지상파통합항법시스템 개발에 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

The eLoran system is considered the best alternative because the vulnerability of satellite navigation systems cannot be resolved as perfect. Thus, South Korea is in the process of establishing a testbed of the eLoran system in the West Sea. To provide resilient navigation services to all waters, additional eLoran transmitters are required. However, it is difficult to establish eLoran transmitters because of various practical reasons. Instead, the positioning with NDGNSS/AIS source can expand the coverage and its algorithm with applying continuous waves is under development. Using the already operating NDGNSS reference station and the AIS base station, it is possible to operate the navigation system with higher accuracy than before. Thus, it is crucial to predict the performance when each system is integrated. In this paper, we have developed a simulation tool that can predict the performance of terrestrial integrated navigation system using the eLoran system, maritime NDGNSS station and the AIS station. The esitmated phase error of the received signal is calculated with the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound factoring the transmission power and the atmospheric noise according to the transmission frequency distributed by the ITU. Additionally, the simulation results are more accurate by estimating the annual mean atmospheric noise of the 300 kHz signal through the DGPS signal information collected from the maritime NDGNSS station. This approach can further increase the reliability of simulation results.

IDGPS(Inverted Differential Global Positioning System) is one of technique improving the accuracy of GPS positioning and is mostly used for tracking an automatic vehicle. In the IDGPS, the user send it’s GPS position and related satellite information to dispatcher, and the corrections are made at the dispatcher to get corrected user position. IDGPS suffered correction degradation as the baseline become large. This problem is resolved using NIDGPS(Network IDGPS). As the experimental results are demonstrated, the improvement of position accuracy using IDGPS and NIDGPS is verified.

Wide area differential GNSS(WA-DGNSS) collects GPS measurements from the several reference stations and estimates 3-D satellite orbit error, satellite clock error, ionospheric delay. These correction messages are broadcasted to user, then user can have more accurate and reliable position estimates. The performance of WA-DGPS can be changed depending on the position of reference stations. To select proper reference stations, performance analysis with the change of reference stations is necessary. In this paper, changing the geographical location of reference stations, we carried out simulation based test and show the performance of WA-DGNSS in Korea.

The conventional RTK-GPS technique has many problems which are permission using RF wireless modem, influence of geographic obstacle using radio wave, frequency interference, finiteness of frequency resources. To solve these problems, in this paper, we designed the DGPS correction message transmission system as a method to substitute the RF wireless modem of RTK-DGPS receiver. Then the interface module was designed and implemented for linkage of GPS receiver and mobile phone. As a result worked differential surveying using receiving correction message using RS-232C and communication control, users of mobile station were worked differential surveying correction between mobile phones. Interface module system was received the same result of precision which was compared RF wireless modem system.

It is necessary to use satellite radio navigation system as well as satellite radio navigation augmentation system such as differential Global Positioning System to achieve the positioning accuracy and reliability requested by International Maritime Organization in port and coastal area. Especially, position accuracy of DGPS user is effected by accuracy of pseudorange correction broadcasted from DGPS reference station. This paper shows pseudorange correction calculation algorithm adopting a non-common error estimation filter in order to improve accuracy of pseudorange correction. Finally, this paper verifies that the pseudorange correction calculated by adopting a non-common error estimation filter satisfies performance specifications of RTCM.

This paper proposes a precise drone-positioning technique using a differential global positioning system (DGPS). The proposed system consists of a reference station for error correction data production, and a mobile station (a drone), which is the target for real-time positioning. The precise coordinates of the reference station were acquired by post-processing of received satellite data together with the reference station location data provided by government infrastructure. For the system's implementation, low-cost commercial GPS receivers were used. Furthermore, a Zigbee transmitter/receiver pair was used to wirelessly send control signals and error correction data, making the whole system affordable for personal use. To validate the system, a drone-tracking experiment was conducted. The results show that the average real-time position error is less than 0.8 m.

DGPS(Differential Global Positioning System) and RTK(Real time Kinematic) are in one of today's most widely used surveying techniques. However surveying with these techniques is restricted by the distance between reference and rover station, and it is difficult to process data in realtime by their own organizational limitation in precise measurement of positioning. To meet these new demands, in this paper, new DGPS and RTK correction data services through the Internet and PSTN(Public Switched Telephony Network) have been proposed. For this purpose, a DGPS and RTK error correction data transmission system is implemented for long-distance using the Internet and PSTN which allows a mobile user at which the rover receiver is located to receive the correction data from the reference in realtime, and analyzed and compared with DGPS and RTK performances by experiments through the Internet and PSTN for the distance and the time.
