위성항법시스템(GNSS)을 민간항공 분야에 활용하기 위해서는 국제민간항공기구가 정한 비행단계별 정확성(Accuracy), 무결성(integrity), 연속성(continuity), 가용성(availability) 요 구조건을 만족시켜야 한다. 본 논문에서는 GBAS, GRAS 등 지상기반 위성항법보강시스템 개발에 활용될 수 있는 CNSS 원격 무결성 감시시스템을 제안하고 개발결과에 대해 기술한다. GPS 수신기와 안테나로 구성된 위성신호 수신장치는 RS-232 to TC/IP 프로토콜 변환장치를 통해 데이터 처리 및 분석을 수행하는 신호처리장치의 Host PC에 연결되도록 설계되었다. 이는 GPS 수신기의 설치 위치 제한을 극복하고 수신기와 안테나 간의 물리적 거리를 줄일 수 있어 GPS 수신 신호의 열화를 방지할 수 있는 방법이다. GPS 데이터를 수신하여 처리하는 신호처리장치는 실시간 운용 및 후처리 운용이 가능하며 GBAS CAT-I급의 무결성 알고리즘과 차분보정 정보 생성을 지원하는 개발 환경을 제공한다.

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal gets delayed as it goes through the troposphere before reaching the GNSS antenna. Various tropospheric models are being used to correct the tropospheric delay. In this study, we compared effectiveness of two popular troposphere correction models: Global Pressure and Temperature (GPT) and Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS). One-year data from a particular site was chosen as the test case. Tropospheric delays were computed using the GPT and SBAS models and compared with the International GNSS Service tropospheric product. The bias of SBAS model computations was 3.4 cm, which is four times lower than that of the GPT model. The cause of higher biases observed in the GPT model is the fact that one cannot get wet delays from the model. If SBAS-based wet delays are added to the hydrostatic delays computed using the GPT model, then the accuracy is similar to that of the full SBAS model. From this study, one can conclude that it is better to use the SBAS model than to use the GPT model in the standard code-pseudorange data processing.

Japanese MSAS (Multi-functional Satellite Augmentation System) satellites have been transmitting GPS satellite orbit and ionosphere correction information since 2005. MSAS coverage includes Far East Asia, and it can improve the accuracy and integrity of GPS position solutions in Korea. This research analyzed the ionosphere correction information from the MSAS ionosphere correction data. The ionosphere delay data observed by a dual frequency receiver is compared with the MSAS ionosphere correction data. The variation of MSAS GIVE values are analyzed in connection with the equatorial anomaly and ionosphere scintillation.

민간에 상용화된 GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) 시스템은 정밀 PNT 서비스가 요구되는 분야에 적용하기 위한 요구 성능을 충족시키지 못한다. 따라서 일반적으로 위치 정밀도와 무결성 등을 향상시키기 위한 보정 시스템들이 다양하게 이용되고 있다. MSAS는 일본의 SBAS형 보정시스템이다. 본 논문에서는 일본의 MSAS 시스템이 한반도 영역에서 어떤 특성을 보이는지 분석하였다. 먼저, 시뮬레이션과 실험을 바탕으로 DGNSS 항법신호 및 항법파라미터 분석에 목적을 두고 수행하였다. 분석결과, MSAS 지상감시국과 한반도 남해안 수신점에서 3차원 위치 결정에 필요한 충분한 수의 항법위성이 동시에 관측되었으며, 수신점에서 MSAS 위성의 신호가 안정적으로 유지됨을 확인하였다. 또한 MSAS 3차원 위치 정밀도는 2m (2drms) 수준으로 세계적으로 사용되고 있는 범용의 DGNSS 수준과 유사함을 확인하였다.

Today, services using Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) technology are provided in various fields, such as smartphone Location-Based Service (LBS) and autonomous driving. Generally, outdoor positioning techniques depend on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and the need for positioning techniques that guarantee positioning accuracy, availability, and continuity is emerging with advances in service. In particular, continuity is not guaranteed in urban canyons where it is challenging to secure visible satellites with standalone GNSS, and even if more than four satellites are visible, the positioning accuracy and stability are reduced due to multipath channels. Research using Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites is already underway to overcome these limitations. In this study, we conducted a trend analysis of LEO-PNT research, an LEO satellite-based navigation and augmentation system. Through comparison with GNSS, the differentiation of LEO-PNT was confirmed, and the system design and receiver processing were analyzed according to LEO-PNT classification. Lastly, the current status of LEO-PNT development by country and institution was confirmed.

GNSS Services and Applications are today in permanent evolution in all the market sectors. This evolution comprises: ${\bullet}$ New constellations and systems, being GALILEO probably the most relevant example, but not the only one, as other regions of the world also dwell into developing their own elements (e.g. the Chinese Beidou system). ${\bullet}$ Modernisation of existing systems, as is the case of GPS and GLONASS ${\bullet}$ New Augmentation services, WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS, GRAS, GAGAN, and many initiatives from other regions of the world ${\bullet}$ Safety of Life services based on the provision of integrity and reliability of the navigation solutions through SBAS and GBAS systems, for aeronautical or maritime applications ${\bullet}$ New Professional applications, based on the unprecedented accuracies and integrity of the positioning and timing solutions of the new navigation systems with examples in science (geodesy, geophysics), Civil engineering (surveying, construction works), Transportation (fleet management, road tolling) and many others. ${\bullet}$ New Mass-market applications based on cheap and simple GNSS receivers providing accurate (meterlevel) solutions for daily personal navigation and information needs. Being on top of this evolving market requires an active participation on the key elements that drive the GNSS development. Early access to the new GNSS signals and services and appropriate testing facilities are critical to be able to reach a good market position in time before the next evolution, and this is usually accessible only to the large system developers as the US, Europe or Japan. Jumping into this league of GNSS developers requires a large investment and a significant development of technology, which may not be at range for all regions of the world. Bearing in mind this situation, MAGIC appears as a concept initiated by a small region within Europe with the purpose of fostering and supporting the development of advanced applications for the new services that can be enabled by the advent of SBAS systems and GALILEO. MAGIC is a low cost platform based on the application of technology developed within the EGNOS project (the SBAS system in Europe), which encompasses the capacity of providing real time EGNOS and, in the near future, GALILEO-like integrity services. MAGIC is designed to be a testing platform for safety of life and liability critical applications, as well as a provider of operational services for the transport or professional sectors in its region of application. This paper will present in detail the MAGIC concept, the status of development of the system within the Madrid region in Spain, the results of the first on-field demonstrations and the immediate plans for deployment and expansion into a complete SBAS+GALILEO regional augmentation system.

In this paper, we described configuration and construction of infrastructure for the KASS Reference Station (KRS), subsystem of Korea Augmentation Satellite System (KASS). KASS system consists of three subsystems(KRS, Mission Control Center (MCC), KASS Uplink Station (KUS)). One of these subsystems, KRS receives GNSS data for generating range error and integrity verification and sends to MCC. It is needed to antenna facilities for mounting GNSS antenna and shelter for operating KRS and infra equipment(power and network system, lightning and grounding system, fire extinguish) for operating KRS. For this reason, we have established the requirements for KRS infrastructure and constructed infrastructure for KRS to meet the requirements of KRS infrastructure.

본 논문에서는 지상용 GPS(Global Positioning System)와 유사한 GBAS(Ground Based Augmentation Systems)의 위치측정오차에 대해서 연구하였다. GBAS의 위치측정오차에 영향을 주는 요소는 많이 있으며 측위오차(DOP: Dilution Of Precision)도 그 중의 하나이다. 측위오차는 송신기와 수신기의 수와 기하학적 배치위치에 따라서 결정된다. 본 연구에서는 한반도 지형에 2-열로 송신기를 배치하고 수신기의 위치에 따른 고도별 DOP를 예측할 수 있는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 본 논문은 송신기와 수신기가 배치된 3차원 공간의 DOP를 정확하게 예측할 수 있어서 항법시스템에 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

현재 운용중인 전 세계적인 위성항법시스템(GNSS : Global Navigation Satellite System)은 미국의 GPS(Global Positioning System)와 러시아의 GLONASS(Global Navigation Satellite System)가 있다. 전 세계적으로 주로 사용되는 시스템은 GPS이며, GLONASS는 러시아의 경제사정 악화로 인하여 지속적인 위성발사가 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 추가적으로 추진되고 있는 위성항법시스템은 유럽의 갈릴레오(Galileo), 중국의 북두(Beidou), 일본의 JRANS(Japanese Regional Advanced Navigation System) 그리고 2006년 5월에 구축 프로젝트가 승인된 인도의 IRNSS(Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System)가 있다. 보강시스템의 경우, 미국 FAA(Federal Aviation Administration)는 광역오차보정시스템(WAAS)을 Raytheon사와 개발하였으며, 현재 착륙용 근거리오차보정시스템(LAAS)을 Raytheon사 및 Honeywell사와 함께 정부/산업체 공동개발 사업(GIP; Government Industry Partnership)으로 진행 중에 있다. 유럽은 EGNOS(European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service)를 사용하고 있으며, 일본의 MSAT(MTSAT Satellite Based Augmentation System)와 인도의 GAGAN(GPS and GEO Augmented Navigation)은 추진 중이다. 이 글에서는 위성항법시스템과 위성항법 보강시스템의 현황을 살펴본다.
