  • UGV가 임무를 수행하기 위해서는 먼저 자신의 위치를 인식하는 것이 중요하며, 위치 인식을 위해 일반적으로 GPS나 INS 등 하나의 센서로 구성된 항법시스템을 이용한다. 그러나 GPS와 INS와 같은 센서들은 각각 단독으로 사용되기에는 제한사항을 가지고 있다. 즉 GPS는 정확한 위치정보의 제공이 가능하지만 기상과 환경에 의해 위치정보가 단절되며, INS는 독자적인 항법정보의 제공이 가능하지만 오차가 누적되어 정확한 위치추정이 어렵다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 연속적이고 정확한 위치추정을 위해서는 센서 융합을 통한 복합 항법시스템이 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 GPS와 INS를 융합한 복합 항법시스템을 구성하기 위해 퍼지추론과 언센티드 파티클 필터를 이용한 UGV의 데이터 융합 및 위치추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 퍼지추론은 GPS와 INS를 융합하는데 있어 수학적인 방법보다 더 간단하게 구현이 가능하며, 언센티드 파티클 필터는 오차보정에 탁월한 성능을 보여주는 비선형 추정 필터이다. 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 비교분석하기 위해 실험을 실시하였으며, 실험 결과 제안한 알고리즘이 기존 알고리즘보다 연속적이고 정밀한 위치추정이 가능함을 입증하였다.

  • 최근 항공측량분야에서 항측용 디지털카메라와 라이다 및 GPS/INS와 같은 센서들을 이용해 다양한 공간정보를 획득하고 있다. 또한 GPS/INS와 항측용 디지털카메라의 연계를 통한 Direct Georeferencing 기술이 널리 활용되고 있다. 하지만 여러 센서의 결합에 따른 센서검정(Sensor Calibration)을 실시해야 하는 문제점이 따른다. 특히, 통합센서의 Boresight Calibration은 GPS/INS 항공삼각측량 및 Direct-georeferencing을 사용하는 작업절차에서 중요한 요소이다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 항공기용 센서의 검정을 위한 국가차원의 테스트베드를 세종시 부지에 설치하고 항공영상의 항공삼각측량에 의해 함께 사용되는 GPS와 INS 센서결합에 따른 정확한 검정을 수행하여 시스템 변수의 정의, 시스템적인 에러를 평가하고 Direct Georeferencing에 필요한 외부표정요소 직접결정을 위한 효율적인 방법의 조사와 통합된 센서의 정확도 평가를 수행하였다.

  • 본 논문에서는 심층 결합 GPS/INS 통합 항법 시스템의 A/J 성능 평가를 위한 실험 시스템 구성 및 평가 결과를 제시하고자 한다. 심층 결합 GPS/INS 통합 항법 시스템에서는 일반적인 수신기의 A/J 성능 판단 기준인 'loss-of-lock'을 이용하여 성능을 판단하기 어렵기 때문에 실험 시스템을 구성하여 성능을 평가하고자 한다. 구성된 실험 시스템을 이용하면 여러가지 간섭 신호에 대한 실험이 가능하며, 실험 결과에서 심층 결합 GPS/INS 통합 항법 시스템의 성능이 A/J 기법 중 하나인 INS의 속도 정보를 신호 추적 루프에 인가하는 기법보다 우수하다는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

  • A new GPS receiver correlator for the deeply-coupled GPS/INS integration system is proposed in order to the computation time problem of the Kalman filter. The proposed correlator consists of two early, prompt and late arm pairs. One pair is for detecting data bit transition boundary and another is for the correlator value calculation between input and replica signal. By detecting the data bit transition boundary, the measurement calculation time can be made longer than data bit period. As a result of this, the computational time problem of the integrated Kalman filter can be resolved. The validity of the proposed method is given through computer simulations.

  • Conventional DLLs estimate the delay times of satellite signals individually and feed back these measurements to the VCO independently. But VDLL estimates delay times and user position directly and then estimate the feedback term for VCO using the estimated position changes. In this process, input measurements are treated as vectors and these vectors are used for navigation. First advantage of VDLL is that noise is reduced in all of the tracking channels making them less likely to enter the nonlinear region and fall below threshold. Second is that VDLL can operate successfully when the conventional independent parallel DLL approach fails completely. It means that VDLL receiver can get enough total signal power to track successfully to obtain accurate position estimates under the same conditions where the signal strength from each individual satellite is so low or week that none of the individual scalar DLL can remain in lock when operating independently. To operate VDLL successfully, it needs to know the initial user dynamics and position and prevents total system from the divergence. The suggested integration method is to use the inertial navigation system to provide initial dynamics for VDLL and to maintain total system stable. We designed the GPS/INS integrated navigation system. This new type of integrated system contained the vector pseudorange format generation block, VDLL signal processing block, position estimation block and the conversion block from position change to delay time feedback term aided by INS.

  • In this study, we propose a real time inertial navigation system/global positioning system (INS/GPS) integrated smoothing algorithm based on an extended Kalman filter (EKF) and a position damping loop (PDL) for synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Integrated navigation algorithms usually induce discontinuities due to error correction update by the Kalman filter, which are as detrimental to the performance of SAR as the relative position error. The proposed smoothing algorithm suppresses these discontinuities and also reduces the relative position error in real time. An EKF estimates the navigation errors and sensor biases, and all the errors except for the position error are corrected directly and instantly. A PDL activated during SAR operation period imposes damping effects on the position error estimates, where the estimated position error is corrected smoothly and gradually, which contributes to the real time smoothing and small relative position errors. The residual errors are re-estimated by the EKF to maintain the estimation performance and the stability of the overall loop. The performance improvements were confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations. The simulation results showed that the discontinuities were reduced by 99.8% and the relative position error by 48% compared with a conventional EKF without a smoothing loop, thereby satisfying the basic performance requirements for SAR operation. The proposed algorithm may be applicable to low cost SAR systems which use a conventional INS/GPS without changing their hardware configurations.

  • The UGV is one of the special field robot developed for mine detection, surveillance and transportation. To achieve successfully the missions of the UGV, the accurate and reliable navigation data should be provided. This paper presents design and implementation of multi-sensor-based open architecture integrated navigation for localization of UGV. The presented architecture hierarchically classifies the integrated system into four layers and data communications between layers are based on the distributed object oriented middleware. The navigation manager determines the navigation mode with the QoS information of each navigation sensor and the integrated filter performs the navigation mode-based data fusion in the filtering process. Also, all navigation variables including the filter parameters and QoS of navigation data can be modified in GUI and consequently, the user can operate the integrated navigation system more usefully. The conventional GPS/INS integrated system does not guarantee the long-term reliability of localization when GPS solution is not available by signal blockage and intentional jamming in outdoor environment. The presented integration algorithm, however, based on the adaptive federated filter structure with FDI algorithm can integrate effectively the output of multi-sensor such as 3D LADAR, vision, odometer, magnetic compass and zero velocity to enhance the accuracy of localization result in the case that GPS is unavailable. The field test was carried out with the UGV and the test results show that the presented integrated navigation system can provide more robust and accurate localization performance than the conventional GPS/INS integrated system in outdoor environments.

  • In this Paper, outdoor position estimation system was implemented using GPS (Global Positioning System) and INS (Inertial Navigation System). GPS position information has lots of errors by interference from obstacles and weather, the surrounding environment. To reduce these errors, multiple GPS system is used. Also, the Discrete Wavelet Transforms was applied to INS data for compensation of its error. In this paper, position estimation of the mobile robot in the straight line is conducted by EKF (Extended Kalman Filter). However, curve running position estimation is less accurate than straight line due to phase change in rotation. The curve is recognized through the rate of change in heading angle and the position estimation precision of the initial curve was improved by UPF (Unscented Particle Filter). In the case of UPF, if the number of particle is so many that big memory gets size is needed and processing speed becomes late. So, it only used the position estimation in the initial curve. Thereafter, the position of mobile robot in curve is estimated through switching from UPF to EKF again. Through the experiments, we verify the superiority of the system and make a conclusion.
