This paper shows a feasibility analysis results on RFID for car positioning system. Usually, a car navigation is mainly based on GPS combined with map-matching. However, in the case of poor visibility of satellites, GPS can not supply accurate position information continuously. In recent years, RFID has been considered to be one of key technologies in positioning and localization area. But its application and research results in the area of vehicular positioning are not popular. RFID system consists of tag, reader, antenna and software such as drivers and middleware. The main function of RFID system in a vehicular positioning is to retrieve ID recorded position information from tags which set on the center of road. We propose a positioning method for vehicles using RFID and we present some indoor and outdoor experiment results to show that the proposed method is available in vehicle operational environments.

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is undergoing dramatic changes. Nowadays, much more satellites are transmitting navigation data at more frequencies. A multi-GNSS analysis is performed to improve the positioning accuracy by processing combined observations from different GNSS. The multi-GNSS technique can improve significantly the positioning accuracy. In this paper, we present a combined Global Positioning System (GPS), the GLObal NAvigation Satellite System (GLONASS), the China Satellite Navigation System (BeiDou), and the Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) standard point positioning (SPP) method to exploit all currently available GNSS observations at Mokpo (MKPO) station in South Korea. We also investigate the multi-GNSS data recorded at MKPO reference station. The positioning accuracy is compared with several combinations of the satellite systems. Because of the different frequencies and signal structure of the different GNSS, intersystem biases (ISB) parameters for code observations have to be estimated together with receiver clocks in multi-GNSS SPP. We also present GPS/GLONASS and GPS/BeiDou ISB values estimated by the daily average.

Wide-Area Differential Global Positioning System (WADGPS) is a system that operates a number of reference stations to provide correction information to improve the accuracy of GPS users, and it is available to service users within the area where the wide-area reference stations are installed. Recently, as positioning information has been used in various applications, the need for WADGPS for precise navigation in long-distance spaced areas where the wide-area reference stations cannot be installed has been raised. This paper tested the user navigation performance outside the wide-area reference stations of the WADGPS system, which serves both GPS Precise Positioning Service (PPS) and Standard Positioning Service (SPS) users. Static and dynamic tests were conducted using vehicles, and as a result, position accuracy improvement through WADGPS was confirmed even at points hundreds of kilometers outside the network area of the wide-area reference stations. Through this, the performance of the PPS/SPS correction system and the possibility of expanding the service area were confirmed.

기존의 전파에 의존한 실내 위치측위 시스템의 한계점 발생으로 실내환경에서 정확도 향상을 위한 새로운 방법의 도입이 필요한 시점이다. 최근 생태계 모방 기술이 미래의 핵심기술이 되었고, 이에 따라 귀소본능을 가진 동물들이 지구자기장을 탐색하여 생체자석으로 위치친지에 사용하는 점을 적용한 정확한 위치 측위 방법을 연구하였다. 실내 위치측위를 위한 새로운 자원인 지구자기장의 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 건물구조, 구성재료를 구분하고 실제 자기장센서를 탑재할 수 있는 구조물과 데이터수집 모듈을 설계한 뒤, Fingerprint 기법의 위치측위 시스템을 구성하여 위치측위 자원으로서의 지구자기장의 적용 가능성을 연구하였다. 위치측위 시스템 성능 평가에서 기존의 무선랜이 설치된 건물에서는 지구자기장 세기 기반의 위치측위 시스템이 무선랜 기반 위치측위 시스템과 유사하거나 약 20% 성능이 높이 나타났다. 이와같이 실내 위치측위를 위한 인프라 설치가 되어 있지 않는 환경에서는 지구자기장이라는 고유의 지구자원으로 실내 위치측위가 가능하다.

In indoor environments, since global positioning system (GPS) signals can be blocked by obstacles, such as building structure. the performance of GPS-based positioning methods can be degraded because of the loss of GPS signals. To solve this problem, various localization schemes using inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors, such as gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer, have been proposed to enhance the positioning accuracy in indoor environments. IMU-based positioning methods can estimate the location of the user by calculating the velocity and heading angle of the user without the help of GPS. However, low-cost MEMS IMUs may lead to drift error and large bias. In addition, positioning errors in IMU-based positioning approaches can be caused by the irrelevant motion of the pedestrian. In this study, we propose an enhanced indoor positioning method that provides more reliable localization results by using the camera, light detection and right (LiDAR), and ARKit framework on the iPhone. Through reliable positioning results and augmented reality (AR) experiences, our indoor positioning system can provide indoor space guidance services.

유비쿼터스 환경에 있는 사용자는 현재 자신의 위치, 시간 그리고 주변의 상태에 기반한 상황 인식 서비스를 받을 수 있다. 이러한 상황 인식 컴퓨팅에서 위치 기반서비스는 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 위치를 측정하기 위하여 전용 장비를 설치하고 운영하는 데 많은 비용이 소요되기 때문에 기존의 WLAN(Wirless Local Area Netowork) 인프라스트럭처가 구축된 환경에서 무선 장비만을 이용하여 위치를 측정하는 방법들이 연구되고 있다. 이미 위치가 알려지고 고정된 AP(Access Point)와 노드간의 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator)만을 이용하는 비콘 기반의 위치 측정 시스템 보다 무선 장비들 간의 RSSI 까지도 이용하는 상호 협력 위치 측정 시스템(Cooperative Positioning System)은 정확성이 높기 때문에 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 논문에서는 상호 협력 위치 측정 시스템 중의 하나인 기존의 WiPS(wireless LAM based indoor Positioning System)의 문제점을 분석하고, 이웃하는 노드간의 영향 관계를 밝히고, 노드의 밀도에 따라 위치 수렴 조정 계수를 결정하여 성능을 개선한 WiCOPS-d(Wireless Cooperative Positioning System using node density)를 제안한다.

This paper describes the development of an INS (Inertial Navigation System) integrated positioning system, which can monitor and track the firefighter's position for assisting effective fire-fighting activity and rescue services. The INS consists of highly accurate three-axis gyro sensor and three-axis accelerometer. By integrating an INS to positioning system, it is also possible to obtain the information of firefighter's physical state (e.g. standing, collapse and crouch) of posture including velocity. Consequently, this research would obviously make a contribution to effective rescue activities and safety of firefighters. Besides, this paper presents results from field tests conducted at Tokyo University demonstrating its viability and utility. We also summarize the overall system requirements and architecture, and describe the hardware and software used in the prototype system in detail.
