This research introduces the method to measure cross-slope using Road Safety Survey and Analysis Vehicle(RoSSAV) with multiple sensors. Cross-slope is an important element like horizontal alignment and vertical alignment in evaluating safety of the roads. In many cases, cross-slope is different from drawings due to frequent overlays. It is extremely difficult to measure cross slope at the roads which has huge traffic volume. Therefore, the algorithm, which can be used when driving the RoSSAV with CPS/INS and Laser Scanner sensors was developed for measuring the cross-slop. Also, in order to examine the algorithm, the superelevation was measured by Laser Scanner and GPS/INS system during travelling and the result was verified by statistical verification.

To guide the guiding robot for the visually impaired carefully, the digital map to be used to search a path must be detailed and has some information about dangerous spots. It also has to search not only safe but also short path through the position data by GPS and INS sensors. In this paper, as the difference of the ability that the visually unpaired can recognize, we have developed the localization tracking system so that it can make a movement path and verify position information, and the global navigation system for the visually impaired using the GPS and INS. This system can be used when the visually impaired move short path relatively. We had also verified that the system was able to correct the position as the assistant navigation system of the GPS on the outside.

In this study, the performances of a medium grade IMU which is aimed for Mobile Mapping System and a low grade IMU for pedestrian navigation are analyzed through simulations under GPS signal blockage. In addition, an analysis on the accuracy improvement of barometer, electronic compass, or multi-sensor(combination of barometer and electronic compass) to correct medium grade or low grade IMU errors in the situation of GPS signal blockage is performed. With the medium grade IMU, the three dimensional positioning error from INS exceeds the demanded accuracy of 5m when the block time is over 30 seconds. When we correct IMU with barometer, compass, or multi-sensor, however, the demanded accuracy is maintained up to 60 seconds. In addition, barometer is more effective than the electronic compass when they are combined. In case of low grade IMU like MEMS IMU, the three dimensional positioning error from INS exceeds the demanded accuracy of 20m when the block time is over 15 seconds. When we correct INS with barometer, compass, or multi-sensor, however, the demanded accuracy is maintained up to 15 seconds in simulation results. On the contrary to medium grade IMU, electronic compass is more effective than the barometer in case of low velocity such as pedestrian navigation. It is expected that the analysis suggested a method to decrease position or attitude error using aided sensor integration when MMS or pedestrian navigation is operated under 1he environment of GPS signal blockage.

For effective management of information about establishment and repair of road and road facilities, we built GPS-Van mapping system that CCD Cameras, GPS receivers and INS are integrated and using it surveyed test area. Suggested a scheme that possible put acquired data into photo database systematically. Prototype of road facilities management system using the database shows us that extraction of qualitative information and management are possible through relation attribute information. And it raise cognitive faculty of user about objects using field photographs.

The integrated navigation system(INS) for fishing boat which organized the marine radar, global positioning system(GPS) compass, automatic identification system(AIS), echo sounder, GPS and electronic nautical chart(ENC) was manufactured to reduce the marine accidents of fishing boats occurred frequently at coastal and offshore. The application possibility of INS for fishing boat was examined for basic experiments in the sea. Integration display of various information, such as other vessel's behavior, depth, own vessel's position etc. was done to help the operate user who understood the circumstance around own boat. Therefore, the system will be utilized as a useful equipment for safety voyage and fishing work on the fishing ground.

For successful operations of an airborne Active Electronically-Scanned Array (AESA) radar, which has various advantages over traditional radar systems, accurate and robust navigation is critical. This paper discusses a study on the performance analysis of an integrated navigation based on the Embedded GPS/INS (EGI) system for an aircraft equipped with an AESA radar. The models for generating the inputs for the GPS/IMU are developed. A navigation filter for a loosely-coupled GPS/IMU system is constructed. Overall navigation performance assessment procedure using a six degree of freedom aircraft simulator - along with the GPS/IMU models and the navigation filter - is introduced. The steps of the performance analysis procedure are explained using a comprehensive case study.

In this study, a real-time Tactical UAS position compensation system based on image information developed to compensate for the weakness of location navigation information during GPS signal interference and jamming / spoofing attack is described. The Tactical UAS (KUS-FT) is capable of automatic flight by switching the mode from GPS/INS integrated navigation to DR/AHRS when GPS signal is lost. However, in the case of location navigation, errors accumulate over time due to dead reckoning (DR) using airspeed and azimuth which causes problems such as UAS positioning and data link antenna tracking. To minimize the accumulation of position error, based on the target data of specific region through image sensor, we developed a system that calculates the position using the UAS attitude, EO/IR (Electric Optic/Infra-Red) azimuth and elevation and numerical map data and corrects the calculated position in real-time. In addition, function and performance of the image information based real-time UAS position compensation system has been verified by ground test using GPS simulator and flight test in DR mode.

In order to reduce the time and cost of developing a navigation system, a performance evaluation platform can be used. A User Interface (UI) is required to effectively evaluate the performance, which sets parameters and gives navigation sensor signals and data display, and also displays navigation results. In this paper, a LabVIEW-based UI design method for multi-integrated navigation systems is proposed and implementation results are presented. The UI consists of a signal and data generation part and a signal and data processing part. The signal and data generation part sets parameters for the signal and data generation and displays the navigation sensor signal and data generation results. The signal and data processing part sets parameters for the signal and data processing and displays the navigation results. The signal and data generation part and signal and data processing part are designed to satisfy the requirements of the UI for a performance evaluation of the navigation system. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed UI design method, parameters of the signal and data generation and the signal and data processing are set through the LabVIEW-based UI, and the Global Positioning System (GPS) signal and inertial measurement unit data generation results and the navigation results of a GPS Software Defined Receiver (SDR) and inertial navigation system are confirmed. The implementation results show that the proposed UI design method helps users conduct an effective performance evaluation of navigation systems.
