In location finding system using spaced multi-sensor, Depending on the signal source's location and the location of the sensors Position estimation accuracy is determined. This phenomenon is called GDOP effect. and to minimize these effects, research is needed on how. In this paper, I will describe how to minimize GDOP effect, estimating GDOP using angle of arrivals of multi sensors, and removing sensor error factor.

In location finding system using spaced multi-sensor, there is the phenomenon that the position estimation accuracy is degraded by the location of signal sources and the sensors. This phenomenon is called GDOP(Geometric Dilution Of Precision) effect. and to minimize these effects, research is needed on how. In this paper, I will describe how to minimize GDOP effect, estimating possibility of GDOP using AOA(angle of arrival) information of spaced multi sensors, and removing sensor error factor in position estimation.

To evaluate the accuracy of currents measured by HF radar in the coastal sea off Keum River estuary, we compared the facing radial vectors of two HF radars, and HF radar-derived currents with in-situ measurement currents. Principal component analysis was used to extract regression line and RMS deviation in the comparison. When two facing radar's radial vectors at the mid-point of baseline are compared, RMS deviation is 4.4 cm/s in winter and 5.4 cm/s in summer. When GDOP(Geometric Dilution of Precision) effect is corrected from the RMS deviations that is analyzed from the comparison between HF radar-derived and current-metermeasured currents, the error of velocity combined by HF radar-derived current is less than 5.1 cm/s in the stations having moderate GDOP values. These two results obtained from different method suggest that the lower limit of HF radar-derived current's accuracy is 5.4 cm/s in our study area. As mentioned in previous researches, RMS deviations become large in the stations located near the islands and increase as a function of mean distance from the radar site due to decrease of signal-to-noise level and the intersect angle of radial vectors. We found that an uncertain error bound of HF radar-derived current can be produced from the separation process of RMS deviations using GDOP value if GDOP value for each component is very close and RMS deviations obtained from current component comparison are also close. When the current measured in the stations having moderate GDOP values is separated into tidal and subtidal current, characteristics of tidal current ellipses analyzed from HF radar-derived current show a good agreement with those from current-meter-measured current, and time variation of subtidal current showed a response reflecting physical process driven by wind and density field.

Generally time of arrival (TOA) information via two way communications can be derived by accurate round trip time (RTT) between two devices. However, response time demanded in RTT measurement is long, a serious TOA error is caused by each different clock drift between two devices. In order to solve this problem, we propose the TOA and time difference of arrival (TDOA) estimation scheme with mitigating clock drift effect. To verify the performance of proposed method, we compared the proposed scheme with one way based TDOA acquisition method introduced by IEEE 802.15.4a Task Group and then we could conclude that the proposed method has better performance over other methods.

Nowadays, various digital maps on a reduced scale were drawn in Korea including the topographic series of a nation. Though these digital maps are drawn and revised by using aerial photograph or satellite image, there are some problems that it is difficult to revise or renew the topography and natural feature immediately which changes frequently. As the countermeasures of these problems we use GPS accumbency method, which provides user with convenience and accumbency accuracy which is required to revise and renew digital maps. But acquiring correct position by using GPS only may cause not a few errors because of environmental effect of satellite signal errors that GPS obtains. Although accumulated errors which is the major problem of existing method was diminished owing to the position signal received from satellite which is about 20,183km above, the area that can not receives the signal is occur such as woods and high-rise buildings space. And because of the GDOP (Geometry Dilution of Precision) of GPS satellite and the periodically changing orbit of the satellite, the position calculating problems occur. For settlement of these problems and accurate position determination, DGPS (Differential GPS) is indispensably needed. So, in this study, by adapting Radio Beacon Receiver for marine position determination which is the most convenience method of DGPS methods, we elevated accuracy of modification and renewal of digital map and, having wide application in various measurements, proposed the rapid measurement method about widespread area. In this study, wewant to propose the work scheme of rapid modification and renewal of digital map by using Beacon GPS which is comparatively cheap of all the DGPS methods and which makes it possible to measure independently.
