Due to the recent rise of a need for 3 dimensional geospatial information on urban areas, general interest in aerial multi-view cameras has been on an increase. The conventional geospatial information system depends solely upon vertical images, while the multi-view camera is capable of taking both vertical and oblique images taken from multiple directions, thus making it easier for the user to interpret the object. Through our research we developed a prototype of a multi-view camera system that includes a camera system, GPS/INS, a flight management system, and a control system. We also studied and experimented with the camera viewing angles, the synchronization of image capture, the exposure delay, the data storage that must be considered for the development of the multi-view camera system.

Mobile Mapping System is an effective wav to obtain position and image using vehicle equipped with GPS(Global Positioning System), IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit), and CCD camera. It have been used various fields of load facility management, map upgrade and etc. It is difficult to upgrade Mobile Mopping System which is developed from abroad and add other sensors because we don't know the way to integrate and synchronize multi-sensors. In this paper, we present the effective way of the integration and synchronization method for multi sensors we designed and manufactured Synchronization equipment by considering sensors of laser, odometer and etc.

In this study, we developed a Portable Multi-sensor System, which consists of a video camera, a GPS/MEMS IMU and a UMPC to acquire video images and position/attitude data. We performed image georeferencing based on the bundle adjustment without ground control points using the acquired data and then evaluated the effectiveness of our system through the accuracy verification. The experimental results showed that the RMSE of relative coordinates on the ground point coordinates obtained from our system was several centimeters. Our system can be efficiently utilized to obtain the 3D model of object and their relative coordinates. In future, we plan to improve the accuracy of absolute coordinates through the rigorous calibration of the system and camera.

In the areas of civil engineering or cadastral surveying, multi-orientation process such as setting out boundary mark is regarded as one of the important tasks, measuring land feature and indicating acquired data to the grounds. In case of using dual frequency receiver and TS(total station), there are much advantages in setting out surveying results in the field. However, it costs very expensive and the equipments for enhancing correctness are very complex. In this study, technical factor was reviewed in which single frequence receiver and TS, comparatively cheap and easy to establish a system, was connected into TS(Total Station) in order to make easy to orientation and setting out. As a result of this study, it was possible to support GPS and TS surveying and set out it by short distance wireless communication method using single frequency GPS receiver. And by developing the system, it also could lessen the time of setting out in large areas and difficulty of the surveyors in the field.

This paper presents the design results of a Multi-band Global Positioning System (GPS)/Korean Positioning System (KPS) Real-Time Kinematics (RTK) precise positioning simulator and evaluate its functionalities. The designed simulator consists of a trajectory generation module, a Radio Frequency (RF) signal generation module, a RF signal reception module, a coarse positioning module, a precise positioning module, and an error statistics reporting module. Simulations in realistic scenarios confirm that the proposed baseband simulator works appropriately. The developed simulator can adjust the type, number, band, and Pseudo Random Noise (PRN) code type of the satellite constellation in various ways, and the practical positioning performance can be tested. It can also reflect the channel influence at the actual RF stage and the influence during the initial synchronization and tracking process. Considering such advantages, the proposed simulator would be useful in future researches and developments related to KPS.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is becoming more attractive navigation means for LEO (Low Earth Orbit) spacecraft due to the data accuracy and convenience for utilization. The anomalies such as serious variations of Dilution-Of-Precision (DOP), loss of infrequent 3-dimensional position fix, and deterioration of instantaneous accuracy of position and velocity data could be observed, which have not been appeared during the ground testing. It may cause lots of difficulty for the processing of the orbit control algorithm using the GPS data. In this paper, the characteristics of the GPS data were analyzed according to the configuration of GPS receiver such as position fix algorithm and mask angle using GPS navigation data obtained from the first Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT). The problem in orbit tracking using GPS data, including the infrequent deterioration of the accuracy, and an efficient algorithm for its countermeasures has also been introduced. The reliability and efficiency of the modified algorithm were verified by analyzing the effect of the results between algorithm simulation using KOMPSAT flight data and ground simulator.

In a satellite time management system, the GPS-based clock synchronization technique[1] has the merits of precision time management by knowing the time difference or the error between the OBT(On Board Time) of the internal processors and GPS time every second. It can be realized employing the DPLL(Digital Phase Loop Lock) and FEP(Front End Processor) circuitry for the clock synchronization[2]. In this paper, a refined DPLL & FEP scheme is proposed to provide the precision, stability and robustness of the operation, which is to compensate the errors and noise of the GPS signal, and also to cope with the case when the GPS signal is lost due to several reasons. The simulation and HIL (Hardware In the Loop) test results using the FM(Flight Model) in the course of KOMPSAT-2(Korea Multi Purpose Satellite-2) design and development are illustrated to demonstrate the salient features of this methodology.

In order to estimate the accurate location of a user, Global Positioning system (GPS) requires at least four satellites. Since a conventional despreader operate for an GPS signal of interest, we need multiple despreaders for detecting multiple GPS signals. In this paper, we introduce the extension of the recently proposed system consisting of a null despreader, a conventional despreader, multi-stage CM (constant modulus) array, for the multiple GPS signals, and present the mathematical expression of the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR). The extended system does not require the exact information of the direction of arrival (DOA) to suppress the directional interferences. We present the computer simulation to demonstrate the interference suppression performance of the proposed system for multiple GPS signals.

This paper presents a fault detection and isolation(FDI) method based on Generalized Likelihood Ratio(GLR) test for the tightly coupled SDINS/CPS system. The GLR test is known to have the capability of detecting an assumed change while estimating its occurrence time and magnitude, and isolating the changing part. Once a fault is detected even if we don't know if the fault occurrs at either INS or GPS, multi-hypothesized GLR scheme performs the fault isolation between INS and GPS, and find which satellite malfunctions. However, in the INS faulty case, it turned out to fail to accomodate the fault isolation between accelerometer and gyroscope due to the coupling effects and a poor observability of the system. Hence, to isolate the INS fault, it needs to change the attitude of the vehicle resulting in enhancing the degree of observability.
