본 논문은 안전 서비스를 제공하는 Global Positioning System(GPS) 보호 비(Ratio of Interference to Noise: I/N) 도출을 위해 Ultra Wide Band(UWB)로부터 GPS 간섭 영향을 분석하였다. GPS 측위 오차 2.5 m 이하를 만족하기 위한 UWB 송신기와 GPS 수신기 사이의 최소 보호 거리를 산출하였고, 최소 결합 손실 방법(Minimum Coupling Loss: MCL)을 이용하여 측위 오차를 만족하는 UWB 송신기와 GPS 수신기 사이의 보호 거리 값에 근거하여 GPS 시스템의 보호비(I/N)를 도출하였다. 그 결과, 측위 오차 2.5 m 이하를 만족하기 위한 GPS 보호 거리는 10 m 이상으로 계산되었고, 이를 만족하기 위한 GPS 보호비(I/N)는 -20 dB 이하로 도출되었다. 제안된 GPS 시스템 보호비는 국제전기통신연합(ITU-R)에서 제안한 GPS 시스템 중 안전 서비스에 해당하는 보호비(I/N)를 만족시킴을 확인하였다. 또한, 본 논문을 통해 얻어진 GPS 보호 비의 결과는 안정적인 국내 GPS 시스템 운용을 위한 기준으로 이용될 수 있다.

The Global Positioning System, GPS technology has been widely used in positioning and attitude determination. It is well known that the accuracy, availability and reliability of the positioning results are heavily dependent on the number and geometric distribution of tracked GPS satellites. Because of this limitation, in some situations, such as in urban canyons, underground space or inside of buildings, it is really hard to navigate with GPS receiver. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of satellite-based positioning, the integration of GPS with the pseudolite technology has been proposed. With this pseudolite technology, it is expected that seamless positioning service can be provided in wider area without replacing existing GPS receivers. On the other hand, to adopt pseudolites at larger scale, it is necessary to verify how the pseudolites can complement the existing GPS-based positioning. In this paper the authors present the detail of experimental investigations and the results of the fundamental verification for seamless positioning using integration of GPS and pseudolite. This paper shows that the accuracy and efficiency of integrating GPS and pseudolite through the dynamic and static positioning experiment and discuss about the influence on GPS receiver by pseudolite signal. The experimental results indicate that the accuracy of the height component can indeed be significantly improved, to approximately the same level as the horizontal component.

Precise point positioning (PPP) is increasingly used in several parts such as monitoring of crustal movement and maintaining an international terrestrial reference frame using global positioning system (GPS) measurements. An accuracy of PPP data processing has been increased due to the use of the more precise satellite orbit/clock products. In this study we developed PPP algorithm that utilizes data collected by a GPS receiver. The measurement error modelling including the tropospheric error and the tidal model in data processing was considered to improve the positioning accuracy. The extended Kalman filter has been also employed to estimate the state parameters such as positioning information and float ambiguities. For the verification, we compared our results to other of International GNSS Service analysis center. As a result, the mean errors of the estimated position on the East-West, North-South and Up-Down direction for the five days were 0.9 cm, 0.32 cm, and 1.14 cm in 95% confidence level.

This paper presents a fingerprint database construction method for WLAN RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator)-based indoor positioning. When RSSI is used for indoor positioning, the fingerprint method can achieve more accurate positioning than trilateration and centroid methods. However, a FD (Fingerprint Database) must be constructed before positioning. This step is a very laborious process. To reduce the drawbacks of the fingerprint method, a radio propagation model-based FD construction method is presented. In this method, an FD can be constructed by a simulator. Experimental results show that the constructed FD-based positioning has a 3.17m (CEP) error. In this paper, a spatial correlation method is presented to estimate the NLOS(Non-Line of Sight) error included in the FD constructed by a simulator. As a result, the NLOS error of the FD is reduced and the performance of the error compensated FD-based positioning is improved. The experimental results show that the enhanced FD-based positioning has a 2.58m (CEP) error that is a reasonable performance for indoor LBS (Location Based Service).

QZSS (Quasi-Zenith Satellite System)는 위성의 L6 밴드를 통해서 CLAS (Centimeter Level Augmentation Service)를 제공한다. CLAS는 현재 GPS (Global Positioing System), Galileo 그리고, QZSS 위성군에 대한 보정정보를 제공하며, 이러한 보정정보를 C-SSR (Compact - Space State Representation)라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 L6 밴드를 수신할 수 있는 GPS 수신기인 Septentrio의 AsteRx4를 이용하여 CLAS 메시지를 수신하고, 그 메시지를 디코딩하여 C-SSR을 획득하였다. 그리고, GPS, Galileo, QZSS의 코드의사거리 관측치에 Compact SSR을 적용하여 GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) 오차를 보정하고, 비선형 최소제곱법으로 수신기의 3차원 위치 및 위성군의 시계오차들을 추정하는 다중 위성항법 기반의 Code-PPP (Precise Point Positioning)를 개발하였다. 개발한 알고리즘의 정확도를 평가하기 위해서 IGS (International GNSS Service) 사이트 중 하나인 TSK2 (Tsukuba)를 대상으로 정지측위를 수행하고, 일본의 가와니시(Kawanishi)시의 이나강(Ina river) 주변을 주행하며 이동측위를 수행하였다. 그 결과, 정지측위의 경우 모든 데이터셋의 평균 RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error)는 수평방향으로 0.35 m, 수직방향으로 0.57 m의 정확도를 나타냈다. 그리고 이동측위의 경우 VRS의 RTK-FIX 값과 비교해 봤을 때 수평방향은 약 0.82 m, 수직방향은 약 3.56 m의 정확도를 나타냈다.

휴대용 단말에 간편하게 구현 가능하도록 GPS의 코드의사거리 관측치 기반의 정밀단독측위(PPP; Precise Point Positioning) 알고리즘을 개발하고 그 성능을 검증하였다. PPP에 필요한 기본 모델로 그룹 딜레이, 상대성 효과, 위성안테나 위상중심오프셋 보정모델을 적용하였다. 위성 궤도와 시계오차는 IGS(International GNSS Service) 공식 산출물에 최적의 알고리즘을 통해 보간하고, 대류권과 전리층 오차는 각각 과학기술용 GPS 자료처리 소프트웨어로 산출한 참값과 GIM(Global Ionosphere Model)을 사상함수를 적용해 시선방향 오차로 변환해 적용하였다. 개발된 알고리즘을 4일간 테스트한 결과 수평오차는 0.8~1.6m, 수직오차는 1.6~2.2m 수준으로 나타났다. 이는 DGPS 측위결과와 유사한 성능으로 향후 PPP 알고리즘의 추가개선이 이루어질 경우 다양한 측량 및 위치기반서비스 분야에 활용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

In the 5G era, the communication networks tend to be ultra-densified, which will improve the accuracy of indoor positioning and further improve the quality of positioning service. In this study, we propose an indoor three-dimensional (3D) dynamic reconstruction fingerprint matching algorithm (DSR-FP) in a 5G ultra-dense network. The first step of the algorithm is to construct a local fingerprint matrix having low-rank characteristics using partial fingerprint data, and then reconstruct the local matrix as a complete fingerprint library using the FPCA reconstruction algorithm. In the second step of the algorithm, a dynamic base station matching strategy is used to screen out the best quality service base stations and multiple sub-optimal service base stations. Then, the fingerprints of the other base station numbers are eliminated from the fingerprint database to simplify the fingerprint database. Finally, the 3D estimated coordinates of the point to be located are obtained through the K-nearest neighbor matching algorithm. The analysis of the simulation results demonstrates that the average relative error between the reconstructed fingerprint database by the DSR-FP algorithm and the original fingerprint database is 1.21%, indicating that the accuracy of the reconstruction fingerprint database is high, and the influence of the location error can be ignored. The positioning error of the DSR-FP algorithm is less than 0.31 m. Furthermore, at the same signal-to-noise ratio, the positioning error of the DSR-FP algorithm is lesser than that of the traditional fingerprint matching algorithm, while its positioning accuracy is higher.

Navigation satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS etc.) provide three main services, i.e., positioning for location based services, navigation for multi-modal transportation services, and timing for communication and critical infrastructure services. They were started as military systems but were extended to civil service. Navigation satellite navigation system began with GPS in the USA and GLONASS in Russia at nearly the same time. Indian NavIC and Chines BDS announced their FOCs in 2016 and 2020, respectively and European Galileo and Japanese QZSS are catching up others. In these days, Navigation Satellite System, Positioning, Navigation, and Timing services are part of our daily life very closely. They are required for autonomous driving car, Unmanned vehicles like UAV, UGV, and UMV, 5G/6G telecommunications, world financial system, power system, survey, agriculture, and so on. The services among navigation satellite systems are very competitive and also cooperative one another. This article describes the status of these systems and evolution in the technical and service senses, which may be helpful for planning korea positioning system(KPS).
