For real-time precise GPS data processing such as a long baseline network RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) survey, PPP (Precise Point Positioning) and monitoring of ionospheric/tropospheric delays, it is necessary to guarantee accuracy comparable to IGS (International GNSS Service) precise orbit with no latency. As a preliminary study for determining near real-time satellite orbits, the general procedures of satellite orbit determination, especially the dynamic approach, were studied. In addition, the transformation between terrestrial and inertial reference frames was tested to integrate acceleration. The IAU 1976/1980 precession/nutation model showed a consistency of 0.05 mas with IAU 2000A model. Since the IAU 2000A model has a large number of nutation components, it took more time to compute the transformation matrix. The classical method with IAU 2000A model was two times faster than the NRO (non-rotating origin) approach, while there is no practical difference between two transformation matrices.

Since SBAS provides users with GNSS orbit, clock, and ionospheric corrections and integrity, the more precise positioning is possible. As the SBAS service area is expanded due to the development of the SBAS and the installation of the additional ground stations, there is a region where two or more SBAS messages can be received. However, the research on multi-constellation SBAS selection method has not carried out. In this study, we compared the result of positioning accuracy after applying the SBAS correction selected by using WAAS priority, EGNOS priority, or error covariance comparison method to LEO satellites in the regions where WAAS and EGNOS signals are transmitted simultaneously. When using WAAS priority method, 3D orbit error is smallest at 2.57 m. The covariance comparison method is outperform at the center of the overlap region far from each WAAS and EGNOS stations. In the eastern region near the EGNOS stations, the 3D orbit errors using EGNOS priority method is 8% smaller than the errors using the WAAS priority method.

In this paper we propose extended Kalman filter (EKF)-trilateration method which associates EKF to conventional radiolocation technique, trilateration in order to improve the accuracy of dynamic orbit determination of geostationary satellite for broadcasting of highly accurate Standard Time/Frequency Signal (STFS). We then compare to analyze the time accuracies of three techniques which are differential mode, trilateration locating one of four calibrated earth stations on a neighboring country, and domestic-only baseline EKF-trilateration. Computer simulations have shown that in spite of domestic-only baseline EKF-trilateration of poor GDOP, it is possible to track and locate satellite with an accuracy of a few hundred meter which is the performance 10 times more accurate than trilateration can provide. Finally we can provide standard time service with the time accuracy better than a few ns (frequency stability : 10$\^$-14/ over 7 days) all around Korea peninsula.

Inertial navigation systems requires gravity model to compute gravity acceleration and its trajectory accuracy depends on the gravity model accuracy especially for a long range flight. The gravity model accuracy is important for satellite orbit prediction as well. The precision gravity model requires a precision coordinate transformation between inertial and Earth fixed coordinates. Precision gravity acceleration algorithms with a coordinate transform are studied and a computer program is developed. The effects of individual model components on trajectory error are analyzed.

The Ring Laser Gyroscope makes use of the Sagnac effect within a resonant ring cavity of a He-Ne laser and has more accuracy than the other gyros. The Low Earth Orbit satellite for observatory use require the high accuracy Gyro to control and determine the altitude because of the need of payload pointing accuracy. In this paper, The theory of the Path Length Control is explained. The electrical design of Path Length Controller Is described. The Design for Path Length Controller is composed of the demodulator, integrator, phase shifter, high voltage amplifier. We apply the circuit to 28cm square ring laser gyro and get the test results.

Precise Point Positioning (PPP) method is based on dual-frequency data of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). The recent multi-constellations GNSS (multi-GNSS) enable us to bring great opportunities for enhanced precise positioning, navigation, and timing. In the paper, the multi-GNSS PPP with a combination of four systems (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou) is analyzed to evaluate the improvement on positioning accuracy and convergence time. GNSS observations obtained from DAEJ reference station in South Korea are processed with both the multi-GNSS PPP and the GPS-only PPP. The performance of multi-GNSS PPP is not dramatically improved when compared to that of GPS only PPP. Its performance could be affected by the orbit errors of BeiDou geostationary satellites. However, multi-GNSS PPP can significantly improve the convergence speed of GPS-only PPP in terms of position accuracy.

The geolocation accuracy of SAR satellite imagery is affected by orbit and sensor information and external variables such as DEM accuracy and atmospheric delay. To predict geolocation accuracy of KOMPSAT-5 and KOMPSAT-6, this paper uses TerraSAR-X imagery which has similar spec. Simulation data for sensitivity analysis are generated using range equation and doppler equation with several key error sources. As a result of simulation analysis, the effect of sensor information error is larger than orbit information error. Especially, onboard electronic delay needs to be monitored periodically because this error affects geolocation accuracy of slant range direction by 30m. Additionally, DEM accuracy causes geolocation error by 20~30m in mountainous area and atmospheric delay can occur by 5m in response to atmospheric condition and incidence angle.
