The altitudes of GEO satellites are higher than those of GPS satellites. Therefore the visibility and the received power of GPS signals are totally different from those of the users near the Earth's surface. In this study, we analyzed the visibility of GPS signals received on GEO satellites. And we also developed a software GPS receiver that works on GEO satellites using CCMDB algorithm which is a weak signal receiver algorithm. GPS signals received on a GEO satellite are generated by a commercial hardware GPS simulator and used for the verification of the developed software GPS receiver. The mean 3D position and velocity error are calculated as 165.636 m and 0.5081 m/s.

This research is to reconstruction of railway alignment using GPS data, an investigation is made on the method of optimum simplification for reduction of unnecessary linear data, improve the accuracy by using four simplification algorithms among the methods. By applying two measured of displacement between observed data and it's simplification methods have been evaluated. The results showed that the complexities of lines is not practical to investigate simplification algorithms, the Douglas-Peucker method produced a little displacement between observed data and it's simplification. Its by using the Douglas-Peucker method to observed linear GPS data in railway track, design elements of horizontal alignment have been calculated. Then we could know that obtain the good results fur reconstruction of alignment elements through the methods and algorithns of this study.

Real-time location-sensing technology using location information collected from IoT devices is being applied for safety management purposes in many industries, such as ports. On the other hand, positional error is always present owing to the characteristics of GPS. Therefore, accident-risk detection algorithms must consider positional error. This paper proposes an methodology of calibration for falling object accident-risk-zone approach detection algorithm considering GPS errors. A probability density function was estimated, with positional error data collected from IoT devices as a probability variable. As a result of the verification, the algorithm showed a detection accuracy of 93% and 77%. Overall, the analysis results derived according to the GPS error level will be an important criterion for upgrading algorithms and real-time risk managements in the future.

In order to calculate accurate traffic and traffic speed, qualified and sufficient GPS data should be provided. However, it is difficult to provide accurate traffic information using restricted GPS data from probe vehicles because of communication costs. This paper developed a algorithm that recovers links omitted by restricted GPS data with topology information, and calculate traffic speed with original links and recovered links. T traffic information service of city with a new algorithm can provide more accurate traffic and traffic speed than the original system.

The accuracy of GPS varies depending on the number of GPS satellites and is declined in GPS interfering spot such as around forest or buildings. This paper proposes a localization improvement algorithm in GPS interfering spot by integrating information of multiple sensors in smartphone. The proposed algorithm is implemented in smartphone and the performance is evaluated in campus area.

GPS is one of the main navigation systems. In these days, the application scope of GPS is extended to attitude determination using Differential GPS(DGPS) technique and Cycle Ambiguity resolution technique. In this paper, we propose an attitude determination algorithm using Kalman filter through double differenced measurement equation which is not for users with GPS patch antennas, but for users with low-priced GPS receivers. This paper also shows the simulation results and the effectiveness of proposed algorithm.

일반적인 이동 수단은 도보, 자동차, 버스가 있으며 그 외에 기차, 자전거 등이 있다. 사용자가 이용하는 이동 수단 상태는 개개인의 특징을 포함하며 이를 파악한다면 다양한 면에서 유용하게 사용 될 수 있다. 사용자의 이동 수단의 상태를 파악하기 위해서 GPS 정보가 사용될 수 있고, 위치정보 기반의 평균속도를 계산함으로써 대표적인 이동수단인 도보, 자동차, 버스를 구별할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 사용자가 버스를 탑승하고 있을 경우, 위치 정보와 GIS정보(버스 정류장 정보와 버스 노선 정보)를 통해 해당 탑승 버스의 노선 정보를 예측하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 알고리즘의 수행 가능성을 파악하기 위해, 약 1개월간 수집된 버스 이동 GPS 로그와 광주지역 버스 노선 및 정류장 정보를 이용한 알고리즘 검증을 수행하였고, 알고리즘이 정상적으로 동작하는 것을 확인하였다.

A GPS/INS system is widely used in the UGV to estimate position during the mission. However, there are few restrictions when a GPS/INS system used alone. For example, GPS provides precise location information but easily interrupted by external factors like weather, environment, etc. INS provides continuous location data but positioning errors grew very rapidly with time. Therefore, it is necessary to integrating multi-sensors for more continuous and correct position estimation. In this paper, we propose location estimation algorithm of the UGV for GPS/INS integrated system that combines Fuzzy Inference and Unscented Particle Filter(UPF) to improve navigation. Fuzzy inference provides the simplest method integrating GPS/INS and UPF is non-linear estimation filter well suited to the correction of errors. The performance of the proposed algorithm was tested to compare with other algorithms. the results show that the proposed algorithm is more accuracy in position estimation and ensures continuous position tracking.

Precise Point Positioning (PPP) algorithms using GPS code pseudo-range measurements were developed and their accuracy was validated for the purpose of implementing them on a portable device. The group delay, relativistic effect, and satellite-antenna phase center offset models were applied as fundamental corrections for PPP. GPS satellite orbit and clock offsets were taken from the International GNSS Service official products which were interpolated using the best available algorithms. Tropospheric and ionospheric delays were obtained by applying mapping functions to the outputs from scientific GPS data processing software and Global Ionosphere Maps, respectively. When the developed algorithms were tested for four days of data, the horizontal and vertical positioning accuracies were 0.8-1.6 and 1.6-2.2 meters, respectively. This level of performance is comparable to that of Differential GPS, and further improvements and fine-tuning of this suite of PPP algorithms and its implementation at a portable device should be utilized in a variety of surveying and Location-Based Service applications.

Facing congestion, people want to know traffic information about their routes, especially real-time link travel time (LTT). In this paper, as a sequel paper of the previous non-taxi based LTT generating study by Choi et al. (1998), taxi based GPS probes have been tried to produce LTT for urban arterials. Taxis in itself are good deployment mode of GPS probes although it by nature experiences boarding and alighting time noises which should be accounted. A heuristic real-time dynamic outlier filter algorithm for taxi GPS probe has been developed focusing on urban arterials. An actual traffic survey for dynamic link travel times has been conducted using license plate method for the test arterials of Seoul city transportation network. With the algorithm, it is estimated that 70% of outliers have been filtered and the relative error has been improved by 73.7%. The filtering algorithm developed here would be expected to be in use for other spatial sites with some calibration efforts. Some limitations and future research agenda have also been discussed.
