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.

In this paper, results for an installation and operation of a GPS jammer localization system were analyzed. The jammer localization system was developed by Korea Aerospace Research Institute and it consists of 4 Receiver Stations, a Central Tracking Station, and a Monitoring Station. The system was installed at Incheon International Airport in November 2014; each Receiver Stations were installed at rooftop of buildings apart from 4km, and the Central Tracking Station and a Monitoring Station were installed at indoor. Results of the operation can be monitored through web-browser in real-time, Korea Aerospace Research Institute and Incheon International Airport Corporation are continuously monitoring them. So far, there is no jamming signal which affects GPS receivers around the airport, however, some abnormal signals were frequently received at Receiver Stations. Therefore, the characteristics of those signals were also analyzed in this paper.

To determine precise position GPS carrier phase measurements are used. In addition, the multi-antenna system consisting of 2 or more GPS antennas can make attitude determination effectively. When GPS carrier phase measurements are used the integer ambiguity must be fixed. The success rate is used to validate the integer ambiguity. For LEO satellite attitude determination the double difference carrier phase measurements are used, the success rate is calculated using the covariance matrix and the measurement matrix. The constraint that LEO satellite position vector and attitude vector is orthogonal is suggested for improving the success rate. The LEO satellite orbit model is KITSAT3. The results of the simulation are shown and analyzed.

We estimated the receiver and satellite differential code bias(DCB) based on the ionospheric total electron content(TEC) estimation method. The GPS network which has been operated by the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute(KASI) was designed to calculate TEC. The receiver and satellite DCB values were obtained from the weighted least square method with time interval for one hour. The results represented that the receiver DCB values are mostly varying within ${\pm}2m$ meter and are derived comparatively stable within three days. The estimated mean values of the satellite DCB show the maximum and minimum values of 4.09 nano-second(ns), -6.28ns respectively. We could detect great variations of TEC over 9 TECU difference at any time when the DCB sets were applied to TEC estimation.

Satellite-based positioning system such as global positioning system(GPS) has played a major role in data capture technology for constructing GIS database. Recent advances in satellite-based positioning technology have made the task of precisely locating features fast, easy, and inexpensive, and determined their current latitude and longitude. However, there are still situations where satellite-based positioning service will not provide users with desired precision such as in urban environments, that is, the only severe handicap still hampering satellite-based positioning is the well-known problem of restricted satellite visibilities. As the majority of the creation and updating of road and street network are carried out in urban environments, the obstruction problem considerably impedes the wider application of satellite-based positioning. This paper presents the current GPS-based positioning environment for GIS data acquisition in urban areas. A field experiment with measurement vehicle has been performed under varying operational conditions and areas where shading of satellite signal is encountered due to buildings and overpasses with measurement vehicle in order to evaluate the availability of existing GPS-based positioning. We found that the current GPS-base positioning system we used in this study was insufficient for a precise GIS data acquisition. This research would make a contribution for the development of base data to supplementary technology, which can complement the existing GPS-based positioning.

The purpose of this study is the GCP/DEM estimations through satellite stereo image interpretation using GPS. We carried out GPS observation fixing first order control points and GPS permanent stations. Comparing static surveying and kinematic surveying, we analysed the surveying methods for GCP and DEM estimations. As the results, considering SPOT image spatial resolution, the DEM can be made through satellite stereo image interpretation.

Pseudolite is a contraction of the term "pseudo-satellite," used to refer to something that is not a satellite which performs a function commonly in the domain of satellites. Pseudolite are most often small transceivers that are used to create a local, ground-based GPS alternative. This paper proposes a clock synchronization scheme for pseudolite.

This paper presents a satellite relative navigation strategy for formation flying, which chooses an appropriate navigation algorithm according to the operating environment. Not only global positioning system (GPS) measurements, but laser measurements can also be utilized to determine the relative positions of satellites. Laser data is used solely or together with GPS measurements. Numerical simulations were conducted to compare the relative navigation algorithm using only laser data and laser data combined with GPS data. If an accurate direction of laser pointing is estimated, the relative position of satellites can be determined using only laser measurements. If not, the combined algorithm has better performance, and is irrelevant to the precision of the relative angle data between two satellites in spherical coordinates. Within 10 km relative distance between satellites, relative navigation using double difference GPS data makes more precise relative position estimation results. If the simulation results are applied to the relative navigation strategy, the proper algorithm can be chosen, and the relative position of satellites can be estimated precisely in changing mission environments.

In this paper, a microstrip antenna is designed using a rectangular patch. To find characteristics of the antenna, computer simulations of the rectangular single microstrip patch antenna are performed with changing width. And we compared the result of computer simulation with the experimental value. Through the results, we found that the 3-D FDTD method is an effective method for designing microstrip patch antenna. According to simulation the resonant point has been found it in the frequency received from GPS satellite. It is thought that make it match by adjusting the feedpoint.
