The rover acquires its own position information using satellites signals provided by several satellites(at least four or more). For the present, GNSS systems are widely used in various fields. However, there are many factors that cause accuracy errors in positioning between rovers and GNSS satellites. Due to satellite time error, orbit error, ionospheric & convective refraction, multipath, etc., rover can't acquire precise position. Differential GPS(DGPS) and Real-Time Kinematic(RTK) have been developed as compensation techniques to reduce such errors. In this paper, we intend to develop a terminal with RTK technique to acquire precise position information of mobile station.

The most of the CDMA mobile communication depends on the GPS for the time synchronization. Then, we must prepare alternative system against the unusable GPS like a unexpectable accident or strategic purpose by the USA government. In this study, we have constructed ground test segment for the time synchronization system using the geostationary satellite. In addition. we have designed, manufactured and tested the transmitting and receiving board to receive 1 PPS signal from atomic clock for transmitting stored data in buffer to satellite modem and to produce 1 PPS signal from satellite modem for measuring time delay.

High-level conceptual design analysis results of satellite communication system for Korea augmentation satellite system (KASS) satellite communication system, which is a part of KASS and consisted of KASS uplink Stations and two leased GEO is presented in this paper. We present major functions such as receiving correction and integrity message from central processing system, taking forward error correction for the message, modulating and up converting signal and conceptual design analysis for concepts for design process, GEO precise orbit determination for GEO ranging that is additional function, and clock steering for synchronization of clocks between GEO and GPS satellites. In addition to these, KASS requires 2.2 MHz for SBAS Augmentation service and 18.5 MHz for Geo-ranging service as minimum bandwidths as a results of service performance analysis of GEO ranging with respect to navigation payload(transponder) RF bandwidth is presented. These analysis results will be fed into KASS communication system design by carrying out final analysis after determining two GEOs and sites of KASS uplink stations.

The key technologies of GNSS receiver for GNSS sensor station are under development as a part of a GNSS ground station in ETRI. This paper presents the GNSS receiver implementation and signal processing result which is implemented based on FPGA to process the Galileo E1 and E5 signal. To verify the working and performance for GNSS receiver which is implemented based on FPGA, live signal received from GIOVE-B which is second test satellite is used. We gather GIOVE-B signal by using prototyping antenna and RF/IF units including IF-component. To verify Galileo E1 and E5 signal processing function from GIOVE-B, FPGA based signal processing module is implemented as a prototyping hardware board.

The Mu-communication board supported by hybrid communication is designed with Cortex M3, which is a low power energy consumption 32-bit microcontroller. The Cortex M3 microcontroller has UART(Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter) ports which can set appropriately using the command line interpreter (CLI) program with each port. URAT ports are used for hybrid communication modems, GPS modules, etc. When the socket type was compared with the short message service type, the socket type was proven to be better. By improving the receiving performance in the control and management system of the AtoN, data loss was minimized. During the testing of the socket and SMS, data was collected from each buoy for 12 hours every 1 minute and the receiving rate of the data was found to be more than 98.58 % and 99.42 % respectively.

The Long Range Navigation (LORAN) had been mainly used world-wide until GPS (Global Positioning System) activation. In particular. it was essential junctionality for the ships to sail the oceans. However, according to the industry's developing, the current accuracy of Loran is insufficient for the utilization such as the harbour approach, the land navigation and the field of precise timing. Therefore it is necessary the study on the improvement of the positioning accuracy of Loran. The method of its improvement is to measure and compensate the propagation time delay, that is, additional secondary factor (ASF) between the transmitter and user's receiver. This study shows the technique for the absolute time delay measurement without a time of coincidence (TOC) table, and represents the ASF measurement result between Pohang transmitter station(9930M) and each measure points.

ELT(Emergency Locator Transmitter) is used to send distress signal in the event of an aircraft crash. It is very useful but the ELT may transmit wrong signal caused by misjudging between crash and hard-landing. The reason of this problem is the low accuracy of the mechanical G-switch currently in use. To improve the ELT, we developed an ELT system using the MEMS(Micro Electro-Mechanical Sensor) accelerometer. The ELT system consists of acceleration data acquisition/analysis system, program of crash recognition, and GPS receiving system for the position information of an aircraft crash site. A free-drop table was developed for verification of the ELT system. The free-drop table was designed to replicate the acceleration and the pulse duration of the hard landing and the crash. By using the free-drop table, we showed that the ELT system performed well.

In this research, we suggest a real-time tele-driving system for unmanned drone operations using the LTE communication system. The drone operator is located 180km away and controls the altitude and position of the drone with a 50ms time delay. The motion data and video from the drone is streamed to the operator. The video is played on the operator's head-mounted display (HMD) and the motion data emulates the drone on the simulator for the operator. In general, a drone is operated using RF signal and the maximum distance for direct control is limited to 2km. For long range drone control over 2km, an auto flying mode is enabled using a mission plan along with GPS data. In an emergency situation, the autopilot is stopped and the "return home" function is executed. In this research, the immersion tele-driving system is suggested for drone operation with a 50ms time delay using LTE communication. A successful test run of the suggested tele-driving system has already been performed between an operator in Daejeon and a drone in Inje (Gangwon-Do) which is approximately 180km apart.

우리나라는 현재 코엑스, 백화점 같은 대형 건물들이 늘어나고 있다. 대형 건물은 실내 구조가 복잡해서 방문하는 사람들이 원하는 길을 찾기 어렵다. 기존 실외에서 길을 찾아주는 네비게이션의 발달은 단말기와 스마트폰의 발달과 함께 성장하였고, 모든 사람들이 사용할 수 있는 대중적인 서비스다. 하지만 기존 네비게이션에 위치 측정 방법인 위성 GPS신호는 실내에서는 사용이 불가해 실내 위치 측정을 위해 Wi-Fi, Beacon, Magnetic Field등 다른 기술을 사용하여 실내 위치 측정을 해야 한다. 그중에서도 이미 설치되어 있는 것을 사용하기 위해 Wi-Fi의 신호 값인 RSS값을 활용하였고, 일정하지 앉은 RSS값을 Kalman Filter와 EH Filter로 보정하여 정확한 실내 위치 측정이 된다는 것을 실험을 통해 보였다.

The LORAN system had been used widely and it was an essential navigation aid for ships in the ocean until the GPS is adopted actively. In particular, it was essential functionality for the ships to sail the oceans. According to the advancement of industry, however, the current accuracy of traditional Loran is insufficient for the utilization of harbour approach, land navigation, and the field of survey and timing. Therefore it is necessary that the study on the improvement of the positioning accuracy of Loran. The one of the improving methods is to measure and compensate the propagation time delay between the transmitter and user's receiver, which is called as additional secondary factor (ASF). In this study, we measured the ASF between the Pohang master transmitting station (9930M) and four points where locate within 33 km apart from the transmitting station, using the measuring technique of the absolute time delay without a time of coincidence (TOC) table. As the result of measurement, the ranging error caused by the propagation delay was about 210 m at 33 km, however it can be reduced up to 40 m with ASF compensation.
