To obtain the system requirement specification in the beginning of the precision guidance system development, the effectiveness and reliability analysis for the system are necessary. The main purpose of this research is to obtain the system requirement specification for the high speed unmanned underwater vehicles by carrying out the effectiveness analysis using the modeling and simulation scheme. The effectiveness is position error for target position. Reaching accuracy is expected to be affected by the navigation sensor parameter. Assume that the navigation sensors that is consist of inertial navigation system(INS) and doppler velocity log(DVL) is the parameter. To analyze the effectiveness of each parameter, Monte-Carlo numerical simulation is performed in this research. The effectiveness analysis is carried out using circular error probability(CEP) and variance analyze scheme. Considering the cost function, the specification of the navigation sensor is provided. The cost function is consist of the INS and DVL specification and the price of those sensors.

In Strapdown Inertial Navigation System(SDINS), error models based on previously proposed conversion equations between the attitude errors, are only valid in case the attitude errors are small. The SDINS error models have been independently studied according to the definition of the reference frame and of the attitude error. The conversion equations between the attitude errors applicable to SDINS with large attitude errors are newly derived. Lyapunov transformation matrices are also derived from the obtained results. Furthermore the general method, which is independent of the attitude error and the reference frame to derive SDINS error model, is proposed using the Lyapunov transformation.

This study is to explore the causes for weak signal areas and suggest solutions for the problem of weak signal areas through the experiments for location error of satellite navigation system depending on the characteristics of locations. For kinematic point positioning, a moving object can have different number of satellite navigation systems available depending on its location. It has to receive location data from at least four satellite navigation systems for precise point positioning. However, drastic urbanization and poor surroundings have caused greater location error and weak signal areas. To reduce location error and remove the occurrence of weak signal areas, it is necessary to verify the characteristics of metropolitan surroundings. Therefore, experiments were conducted to measure location error and discover the causes for the occurrence of weak signal areas in metropolitan area, residential area, woods, ocean area, and open ground. In addition, this study suggests a point positioning algorithm with high precision suitable for local surroundings and an algorithm to remove weak signal areas.

In this paper, in the case of an inertial navigation system, the posture estimation error in the initial alignment due to vertical deflection is analyzed. Posture estimation error due to DOV was theoretically analyzed based on the speed and posture error of INS. Simulations were performed to verify the theoretical grinding, and the results were in good agreement. For example, in the case of η=20", an alignment error of ϕ_N=0.00287°, ϕ_U=0.00196° occurred, and in the case of 𝜉=20", an error of ϕ_E= -0.00286° occurred. Through this, it was confirmed that the vertical posture error caused by the DOV occurred as a coupling characteristic of the INS posture error. It has been shown that an additional posture error may occur due to the DOV, which was not considered in the existing INS alignment, which means that correction for the DOV must be considered when applying high-precision INS.

The BeiDou is a satellite-based positioning and navigation system, which is under construction by the China Satellite Navigation Office. Until the June of 2014, the constellation of BeiDou navigation satellite system consists of 14 satellites including five geostationary earth orbit (GEO), five inclined geosynchronous earth orbit (IGSO) and four medium earth orbit (MEO). In this paper, we present the positioning results using BeiDou B1 code measurements obtained from three GNSS reference stations (BHAO, SKMA, MKPO). Combined Beidou/GPS positioning results are also compared to BeiDou and GPS only. BeiDou-only positioning errors for the east-west and north-south direction had less than 2 meter with root mean square (RMS) value. However, the positioning error for the up-down direction had larger than 10 meter at a 95% confidence level. Our results also suggest that the position precision is improved by combined BeiDou/GPS compared to BeiDou-only.

Is this paper, a pedestrian inertial navigation system with vision is proposed. The navigation system using inertial sensors has problems that it is difficult to determine the initial position and the position error increases over time. To solve these problems, a vision system in addition to an inertial navigation system is used, where a camera is attached to a pedestrian. Landmarks are installed to known positions so that the position and orientation of a camera can be computed once a camera views the landmark. Using this position information, estimation errors in the inertial navigation system is compensated.

Satellite navigation systems, with the exception of the GLObal NAvigation Satellite System (GLONASS), adopt ionosphere models and provide ionospheric coefficients to single-frequency users via navigation messages to correct ionospheric delay, the main source of positioning errors. A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) mostly has its own ionospheric models: the Klobuchar model for Global Positioning System (GPS), the NeQuick-G model for Galileo, and the BeiDou Global Ionospheric delay correction Model (BDGIM) for BeiDou satellite navigation System (BDS)-3. On the other hand, a Regional Navigation Satellite System (RNSS) such as the Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) and BDS-2 uses the Klobuchar Model rather than developing a new model. QZSS provides its own coefficients that are customized for its service area while BDS-2 slightly modifies the Klobuchar model to improve accuracy in the Asia-Pacific region. In addition, BDS broadcasts multiple ionospheric parameters depending on the satellites, unlike other systems. In this paper, we analyzed the different ionospheric models of GPS, QZSS, and BDS in Korea. The ionospheric models of QZSS and BDS-2, which are based in Asia, reduced error by at least 25.6% compared to GPS. However, QZSS was less accurate than GPS during geomagnetic storms or at low latitude. The accuracy of the models according to the BDS satellite orbit was also analyzed. The BDS-2 ionospheric model showed an error reduction of more than 5.9% when using GEO coefficients, while in BDS-3, the difference between satellites was within 0.01 m.

In order to mitigate the vulnerability of the satellite navigation system against radio frequency interference, South Korea has been developing advanced terrestrial navigation system (eLoran) technology since 2016. The eLoran system synchronizes the transmission time of the pulse used in the existing Loran-C system with UTC and transmits correction information that can improve the position error. The eLoran system is known to reduce the position error of about 460 m of the existing Loran-C system to 20 m, and for this, the transmitter must be able to transmit eLoran signals according to more stringent standards. For this reason, an international standard that further developed the Loran-C signal standard established by US Coast Guard was established by Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) International. In this paper, based on the analysis of the SAE9990 document, the international standard for eLoran transmission signals, a standard inspection process was produced to check whether the eLoran transmitter is transmitting signals in accordance with the standard.
