A distributed missile system is composed of command control center, radar and launcher which exchange information each other to use wire or wireless network. The distributed missile system is required mobility for operational convenience and survivability. Also missile system requests land navigation system to provide relatively accurate attitude. For reason of these requirements, each subsystem needs land navigation which provides information of position and attitude. This paper represents operational concept for land navigation to consider operational environment and concrete operational procedure to apply the operational concept. In state that there is no operation for land navigation of distributed missile system internally so for, this paper could be helped to establish operational concept and procedure of this kind of system.

This paper describes a DR construction for land navigation and the sigma point based receding horizon Kalman FIR (SPRHKF) filter for DR/GPS hybrid navigation system. A simple DR construction is adopted to improve the performance both of the pure land DR navigation and the DR/GSP hybrid navigation system. In order to overcome the flaws of the EKF, the SPKF is merged with the receding horizon strategy. This filter has several advantages over the EKF, the SPKF, and the RHKF filter. The advantages include the robustness to the system model uncertainty, the initial estimation error, temporary unknown bias, and etc. The computational burden is reduced. Especially, the proposed filter works well even in the case of exiting the unmodeled random walk of the inertial sensors, which can be occurred in the MEMS inertial sensors by temperature variation. Therefore, the SPRHKF filter can provide the navigation information with good quality in the DR/GPS hybrid navigation system for land navigation seamlessly.

Inertial navigation system (INS) has used aided systems and sensors to compensate navigation error. Global navigation satellite system (GNSS), velocity measurement sensor (VMS), and radar are commonly used to aid INS. Land navigation system (LNS) also mainly uses VMS when GNSS cannot be used such as at tunnel or on jammed scenario. A straight drive is required when VMS-aided navigation is used, because there is only speed of straight direction whereas no crossways and vertical directions. In local environment, even an expressway has lack of straight drive which is constraint of VMS-aided navigation algorithm. This paper proposes an enhanced VMS-aided navigation algorithm for LNS with indirect drive by restricting filter update condition. Also, there is a result of vehicle test to prove performance of the proposed algorithm.

NHC means that the velocity of the vehicle in the plane perpendicular to the forward direction is almost zero. The main error source of NHC is the mounting misalignment which is the difference between the body frame of a land vehicle and the sensor frame of an inertial measurement unit. This paper suggests new NHC algorithm that can reduce position errors by real-time estimation of mounting misalignment. Then NHC/ZUPT integrated land navigation system is designed and its performances are analyzed by simulations with van test data. Simulation results show that the proposed NHC/ZUPT land navigation system improves navigation accuracy regardless of misalignment angle and is very useful when SDINS operates stand-alone for land vehicle navigation with large mounting misalignment.

In this paper, we develop and implement a high integrity GNC(Guidance, Navigation, and Control) system, based on the combined use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), for autonomous land vehicle applications. This paper highlights guidance for the predetermined trajectory and navigation with detection of possible faults during the fusion process in order to enhance the integrity of the navigation loop. The implementation of the GNC system to the autonomous land vehicle presented with fault detection methodology considers high frequency faults from the GPS receiver caused by shadowing and multipath error The implementation, based on a low-cost, strapdown INS aided by standard GPS technology, is described. The results of the field test in the urban environment are presented and showed effectiveness of the GNC system.

This work demonstrates a dead-reckoning (DR) scheme for a low-cost land navigation system and a DR/GPS system design using the sigma point Kalman filter (SPKF). T hrough an observability analysis and some simulations, it is shown that the performances of a stand-alone DR system and DR/GPS system can be improved by employing the proposed DR scheme and SPKF. By using the designed DR scheme and filter, the stand-alone DR system does not have any undetectable errors occurring on the curve trajectory. And the DR/GPS system can provide a stable and seamless navigational solution even in the case where the initial heading estimation error is large, such as 160 degrees, or when the GPS signal is unavailable due to tunnels, buildings, and so on. Simulation results indicate a satisfactory performance of the proposed system.

This paper deals with an intelligent digital ship which aims at development to support economic and safe services through an integration into the hierarchically layered digital signals such as ship's navigation, maneuvering and control signal and establishing a one-man bridge system in order to provide a support systems between ship and land station. This paper introduces the results of the mid-term project sponsored from Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy which consists of three sub-project such as INS(Intelligent Navigation System), AIS(Automatic Identification System), and IMIT (Integrated Maritime Information Technology). The INS system that can allow ships to navigate economically and safely through the integration and analysis of national data within the ship. AIS is a system that reports automatically on the location of the ship in order to prevent the collision between ships and between the ship and the land. IMIT is a integrated system for providing an efficient and economic support system between ships and the land and a ship-land platform and technologies.

Because shore(ship) to ship(shore) communication service via INMARSAT pay expensive cost, satellite service typically use two stage service that land users dial up LES(Land Earth Station) for sending or receiving message. In order to send and receive message, land users must maintain online state with LES on dedicated line. Also, two stage INMARSAT communication service must consume long time that processes step by step. In case of large company, they have own communication system, but small companys communicate simple messages with only telex. This paper describes the design and implementation of an integrated communication services via INMARSAT-C. This system uses inexpensive INMARSAT-C for transmission between ship and land. Because this system provides web and E-Mail interface, users send and receive messages easily and quickly. This system provides most users with inexpensive and easy communication facilities between ship and land.

A portable GPS receiver and a navigation software were used to investigate land application practices of manure composts. The field investigation indicated that most of the land application of manure composts were observed before April. Plowing for incorporation of manure with soil were continued from the middle of April. The results also revealed that over 60% of the farms were within 1 km from livestock farms from which manure composts were transported. Most of the farms having land application were dry field rather than paddies, Some of fields located near livestock farms frequently experience over-application of manure composts. It seems to have been difficult to complete the investigation in this study without the Gps/navigation system. The GPS/navigation system will become an essential tool in field investigations such as ecological/environmental monitoring works that require repeated observation at a number of sites.
