This paper presents the jamming effect on the L5 band of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) by analyzing real data collected via measurement campaigns in Korea region. In fact, the L5 band is one of the dedicated bands for various satellite navigation systems such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Galileo, BeiDou (BDS), and Quasi Zenith Satellite System (QZSS). And this band is also allocated along with various systems used for aeronautical radio navigation systems (ARNS). Among ARNS, the Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) and the Tactical Air Navigation System (TACAN) are systems that transmit and receive strong power pulse signals, which may cause unintentional jamming in the reception of GNSS signals. In this paper, signals in the main lobe of GPS L5, Galileo E5a, BDS B2a, and QZSS L5 are collected in Korean region to confirm whether the jamming effect exists in the band. And then, the pulse blanking technique, which is a simple signal processing technique capable of responding to pulsed jamming, is applied to analyze the jamming effect of DME/TACAN on the L5 band.

We propose the design of an INS simulated equipment to evaluate the enhanced jamming resistance of an INS-aided GPS receiver with INS, when a jamming signal is injected into a simulated high dynamic platform. We propose the design of a relative cheap INS simulated equipment, instead of an expensive INS simulator connected to GPS simulators. Based on the design, we implement the equipment and setup high dynamic test environment using the equipment to evaluate an INS-aided GPS receiver. In the GPS L1 C/A and L2C simulations that inject jamming signals of the narrow and wide bandwidth into the GPS receiver with and without INS-aided algorithm, we obtain increased jamming resistance performance as +5 dB compared with the GPS receiver without INS-aided algorithm in all kinds of jamming bandwidth. Based on the simulations, we verified that the INS simulated equipment can be used to evaluate the enhanced jamming resistance of INS-aided GPS receivers.

To improve the precision of relative positioning for GPS single frequency(L1) receiver, we accomplished the GPS data processing using the weighted smoothing techniques. The weighted phase smoothing technique is used to minimize the measurement error of pseudorange and position domain smoothing technique is adopted to make the complement of cycle-slip affection. we also considered some component errors like as ionospheric error, which are related with baseline length, and processed for several baselines (5, 10, 30, 40, and 150 km) to check the coverage area of this algorithm. This paper shows that weighted phase smoothing technique give more stable results after using this technique and the position domain smoothing technique can reduce the errors which are sensitive to the observational environment. Based on the results, we could find out that this algorithm is available for post-time and real-time applications and these techniques can be substitution methods which is able to get the high accuracy and precision without resolving the Integer ambiguity.

We determined the precise three dimensional WGS84 Coordinates and the sea level height of Seoul Radio Astronomy Observatory (SRAO). In this study, we performed the simultaneous GPS observations at SRAO and Seoul GPS Reference Station(SGRS) of Korea Astronomy Observatory(KAO) for 3.5 hours from 17KST on October 27, 1999. We employed two different antennas, i.e., chokering antenna at SGRS of KAO and L1/L2 compact with groundplane antenna at SRAO. But we employed same type of receivers, i.e., Trimble 4000SSI at both observing places. The observed data were processed by GPSURVEY 2.30 software of Trimble with L1/L2 ION Free technique and broadcasting ephemeris of GPS Satellites because of very short baseline between SGRS of KAO and SRAO. We determined WGS84 latitude, longitude, height and the sea level height of SRAO with $37^{\circ}\;27'\;15.'\;6846N\pm0.'\;0004,\;126^{\circ}\;57'\;19.'\;0727E\pm0.'\;0002,\;204.89m\pm0.02m,\;181.38m\pm0.17m$, respectively.

As the exact geographical information has been nowadays required for effective developing and using of national land, in the country, there has been interested in using of GPS, and its practical use is expected. Various kinds of fundamental research for practical use of GPS is being accomplished. In this study, a test was carried out over 9 stations with baseline of the range of 1.5 to 210km, and the accuracy of baseline length by GPS relative positioning was variously considered. As result of this study, using a GPS receiving L1 frequency only, baseline accuracy for 2 hour observation was of the order of 0.3ppm for the 10km, and for I hour was below 1ppm. Using a GPS receiving dual frequency(L1/L2), baseline accuracy was of the order of 0.3ppm for the 100km to 200km as 3 hour observation using double difference methods by carrier phase. With basic on the result of this study, when observation and baseline processing are proceeded by the selected optimum observation time and using of baseline processing method, we can expect that geographical information will be acquired effectively.

In this paper, an asymmetric compact multiband slot antenna is proposed for global positioning system (GPS), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), and wireless area network (WLAN) applications. The top plane, a ground is composed of a rectangular slot with a trapezoidal-like stub, an inverted U-shaped slot at the right side of the rectangular slot, an inverted L-shaped slot at the left side of the rectangular slot, and three stubs. The proposed antenna is fed by an asymmetric cross-parasitic strip on the bottom plane. By properly designing the slots and stubs, four resonant frequency bands are achieved with -10 dB reflection coefficient bandwidths of 50 MHz, 400 MHz, 390 MHz, and 830 MHz in the 1.57 GHz GPS band, 2.4 GHz WLAN band, 3.5 GHz WiMAX band, and 5.5 GHz WLAN bands, respectively. The antenna has a total compact size of $13mm{\times}32mm{\times}0.8mm$. Simulated and measured results indicate that the proposed antenna has sufficient bandwidth and good radiation performance in each band.

GPS Navigation Solutions are used for operational orbit determination for the KOMPSAT-1 spacecraft. GPS point position data are definitely affected by systematic errors as well as noise. Indeed, the systematic error effects tend to be longer term since the GPS spacecrafts have periods of 12 hours. And then, the overlap method of determining orbit accuracy is always optimistic because of the presence of systematic errors with longer term effects. In this paper, we investigated the measurement noise and the system error for the KOMPSAT-l GPS Navigation Solutions. To assess orbit accuracy with this type of data, we use longer data arcs such as 5-7 days instead of 30 hour data arc. For this assessment, we should require much more attention to drag and solar radiation drag parameters or even general acceleration parameters in order to assess orbit accuracy with longer data arcs. Thus, the effects of the consideration of the drag, solar radiation drag, and general acceleration parameters were also investigated.

A GNSS receiver must perform signal acquisition to estimate the code phase and Doppler frequency of the incoming satellite signals, which are essential information for baseband signal processing. Modernized GNSS signals have different modulation schemes and long PRN code lengths from legacy signals, which makes it difficult to acquire the signals and increases the computational complexity and time. This paper proposes a novel FFT/Inverse-FFT with baseband resampling to resolve the aforementioned challenges. The suggested algorithm uses a single block only for the FFT and thereby requires less hardware resources than conventional structures such as Double Block Zero Padding (DBZP). Experimental results based on a MATLAB simulation show this algorithm can successfully acquire GPS L1C/A, GPS L2C, Galileo E1OS, and GPS L5.

Recently, GNSS users can utilize various navigation satellite thanks to GPS modernization, renewal of GLONASS, and development of Galileo and Beidou. And availability performance of users is expected to be improved because these new navigation satellites transmit L5 signal as well as L1 signal, and users can directly estimate the ionospheric delays. In accordance with these changes existing Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) which considers only GPS L1 signal is being developed to support dual frequency and multi-constellation GNSS users. This paper describes the main features of dual-frequency, multi-constellation SBAS algorithms and estimates the performance in Korean region by simulation.
