수동형 감시시스템과 같은 TDOA(Time Difference Of Arrival) 기반의 위치탐지시스템은 다수의 수신기를 이격 설치 후에 수신기 간 시각동기화를 수행하여 동일한 시각으로 설정하고, 수신기에 수신되는 목표 신호의 도래시간차인 TDOA를 이용하여 쌍곡선(또는 쌍곡면)의 교점을 구함으로써 목표의 2차원(또는 3차원) 위치를 추정한다. 시각동기화를 수행하기 위해서는 다수의 수신기 중에 하나가 주수신기(Master)가 되어 나머지 종수신기(Slave)들의 시간을 보정하기 위한 기준을 제공해야 한다. TDOA 기반의 위치탐지 시스템은 서로 이격되어 배치되어 있는 다수의 수신기 중에 선택되는 주수신기에 따라 위치추정정확도가 달라진다. 따라서 다수의 수신기 중에 최적의 수신기를 주수신기로 선택해야 고려하는 시스템의 배치구조에서 최적의 위치추정 성능을 도출할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 목표와 수신기의 기하학적 배치 기반의 DOP(Dilution Of Precision) 정보를 이용하여 낮은 복잡도와 짧은 수행시간을 가지면서 시스템 내에 자동화가 용이한 주수신기 선택 방법을 제안한다.

NSS (Navigation satellite system) provides the information for determining the position, velocity and time of users in real time using satellite-networking, and is classified into GNSS (Global NSS) and RNSS (Regional NSS). Although GNSS services for global users, the exactitude of provided information is dissatisfied with the degree required in modern systems such as unmanned system, autonomous navigation system for aircraft, ship and others, air-traffic control system. Especially, due to concern about the monopoly status of the countries operating it, some other countries have already considered establishing RNSS. The RNSS services for users within a specific area, however, it not only gives more precise information than those from GNSS, but also can be operated independently from the NSS of other countries. Thus, for Korean RNSS, this paper suggests the methodology to design the satellite constellation considering the regional features of Korean Peninsula. It intends to determine the orbits and the arrangement of navigation satellites for minimizing PDOP (Position dilution of precision). PGA (Parallel Genetic Algorithm) geared to solve this nonlinear optimization problem is proposed and STK (System tool kit) software is used for simulating their space flight. The PGA is composed of several GAs and iterates the process that they search the solution for a problem during the pre-specified generations, and then mutually exchange the superior solutions investigated by each GA. Numerical experiments were performed with increasing from four to seven satellites for Korean RNSS. When the RNSS was established by seven satellites, the time ratio that PDOP was measured to less than 5 (i.e. better than 'Good' level on the meaning of the PDOP value) was found to 94.3% and PDOP was always kept at 10 or less (i.e. better than 'Moderate' level).

본 논문에서는 2015년을 기준으로 GPS(Global Positioning System) 단독측위 및 통합항법 성능 현황을 분석하고, 2020년까지의 항법성능을 연도별로 예측하였다. 이러한 예측을 위하여 한반도 지역에서 관측할 수 있는 위성항법시스템의 궤도요소 및 궤도정보 설계 값을 이용하여 Matlab을 기반으로 DOP(Dilution Of Precision)관점에서 성능을 예측하였다. 통합항법의 경우, 항법시스템 간의 시계오차 추정을 위해 시각오프셋 결정 알고리즘을 고려해야 하는데, 위성항법 메시지 기반 추정방식과 사용자가 직접 추정하는 두 가지 방법으로 나누어 분석하였다. 또한 현실감 있는 시뮬레이션 수행을 위하여 3차원 지도정보를 사용하였다. 본 시뮬레이션결과는 도심지역에서의 항법성능을 예측할 수 있는 지표로 활용될 것이라 기대된다.

A method is described for the determination of dibutyltin (DBT) in sediment by isotope dilution using liquid chromatography inductively-coupled plasma/mass spectrometry (LC-ICP/MS). To achieve the highest accuracy and precision, special attentions are paid in optimization and evaluation of overall processes of the analysis including extraction of analytes, characterization of the standards used for calibration and LC-ICP/MS conditions. An approach for characterization of natural abundance DBT standard has been developed by combining inductively-coupled plasma/optical emission spectrometry (ICP/OES) and LC-ICP/MS for the total Sn assay and the analysis of Sn species present as impurities, respectively. An excellent LC condition for separation of organotin species was found, which is suitable for simultaneous DBT and tributyltin (TBT) analysis as well as impurity analysis of DBT standards. Microwave extraction condition was also optimized for high efficiency while preventing species transformation. The present method determines the amount contents of DBT in sediments with expanded uncertainty of less than 5% and its result shows high degree of equivalence with reference values of an international inter-comparison and a certified reference material (CRM) within stated uncertainties.

Liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry using isotope dilution method has been established as a primary method for the measurement of cortisol in human serum. Verification of this method was accomplished by the participation in Consultative Committee for Amount of Substance-Metrology in Chemistry (CCQM) pilot study. Two levels of cortisol certified reference materials were prepared and certified by the established method. They were used as sample materials for the proficiency testing. The expanded uncertainty in the measurement of cortisol in human serum was approximately 1.2% at 95% confidence level. The results of the proficiency testing showed a good precision among the participants, but some bias to the certified values. This means that commercial field laboratories should keep traceability chain to SI unit through available reference measurement procedures and/or available reference materials.

An isotope-dilution flow-injection electrospray/mass spectrometric method was developed for the accurate determination of glucosamine contents in pharmaceutical formulations. Samples were extracted by methanol. After spiking glucosamine-1-$^{13}C_1$ as an internal standard, the extracts were then analyzed by flow-injection ESI/MS in a selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode to detect [M+H]$^+$ ions of the analyte and its isotope analogue at m/z 180 and m/z 181, respectively. Confirmatory measurements were made by selectively monitoring the collisionally induced dissociation channels of m/z 180 $\rightarrow$ m/z 72 and m/z 181 $\rightarrow$73, respectively, to test the possibility of bias in the SIM method due to matrix interferences, but any significant bias in the SIM mode was not observed. Repeatability and reproducibility studies showed that the flow-injection ESI/MS method is a reliable and reproducible method which can provide a typical method precision of 1.0 %. Other results for the method validation are reported.

A quantitation method for free amino acids in human serum was developed using a stepwise-dilution method and a bimodal cation exchange (CEX)/hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC)-tandem mass spectrometry system equipped with an electrospray ionization source (ESI/MS/MS). This method, which was validated using quality control samples, was optimized for enhanced selectivity and sensitivity. Dithiothreitol (DTT) was used as a reducing agent to prevent the oxidation of a serum sample ($50{\mu}L$), which was then subjected to stepwise dilution using 3, 30, and 90 volumes of acetonitrile containing 0.1% formic acid. Chromatographic separation was performed on an Imtakt Intrada Amino Acid column ($50mm{\times}3mm$, $3{\mu}m$) in mixed mode packed with CEX and HILIC ligands embedded in the stationary phase. Underivatized free amino acids were eluted and separated within 10 min. As a result of the validation, the precision and accuracy for the inter- and intraday assays were determined as 2.11-11.51% and 92.82-109.40%, respectively. The lowest limit of quantification (LLOQ) was $0.5-4.0{\mu}g/mL$ and the matrix effect was 80.22-115.93%. The proposed method was successfully applied to the quantitative analysis of free amino acids in human serum.

An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric method was developed as a candidate reference method for the accurate determination of folic acid in infant milk formula. Sample was spiked with 13C5-folic acid and then extracted with phosphate buffer (pH 6) solution. The extract was further cleaned up by deproteinization followed by a C18 solid-phase extraction cartridge. The extract was analyzed by using LC/ ESI/MS/MS with selectively monitoring the collisionally induced dissociation channels of m/z 442 → m/z 295 and m/z 447 → m/z 295, which are the neutral glutamyl loss from the [M+H]+ ions of folic acid and 13C5-folic acid, respectively. LC/MS/MS chromatograms showed substantially reduced background from chemical noises compared to LC/MS chromatograms. Repeatability and reproducibility studies showed that the LC/MS/ MS method is a reliable and reproducible method which can provide less than 1.5 relative percentage of method precision.

이 논문에서 지상파 DMB (T-DMB)의 데이터 서비스를 이용한 새로운 assisted GPS (A-GPS) 시스템을 제안한다. GPS 위성에서 전달되는 약한 신호와 신호 차단 때문에 델리매틱 단말기는 도심 환경에서 위치 결정에 어려움을 가지고 있다. 제안된 A-GPS 시스템은 GPS 위성으로부터 수신된 신호로부터 가상 거리를 계산하고 T-DMB 방송국으로부터 위성 정보 (ephemeris)를 수신하여 단말기의 위치를 결정하게 된다. GPS 시스템과 비교하여 제안된 시스템은 빠른 TTFF (time to first fix), 낮은 HDOP (horizontal dilution of position) 등의 향상된 성능을 보여준다. 실험을 통하여 제안된 시스템은 A-GPS 시스템으로서 구현 가능하고 강력한 방법이라는 사실을 확인할 수 있다.
