In this paper, a GNSS error generation simulator for Signal Quality Monitoring (SQM) is implemented by using Matlab based on mathematical models derived from the effect of GNSS signal and measurement errors. The GNSS signal measurement errors of interest in this paper include three cases such as Evil Wave Form (EWF), Multipath (MP) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). In order to verify the validity of the generated measurement errors, a simple form of metrics for detecting and monitoring GNSS errors is included in the simulator. The GNSS errors generated by the simulator are added to the GNSS measurement data from commercial GNSS receiver in real time, and then, the SQM is tested for various scenarios of each case configured by scenario setting of the user.

Global Navigation Satellite Systems are expected to meet system-defined integrity requirements when users utilize the system for safety critical applications. While the guaranteed integrity performance of GPS and Galileo is publicly available, their integrity assurance procedure and related methodology have not been released to the public in an official document format. This paper summarizes the integrity assurance procedures of Global Positioning System (GPS) and Galileo, which were utilized during their system development, through a literature survey of their integrity assurance methodology. GPS Block II assures system integrity using the following methods: continuous performance monitoring and maintenance on Space Segment (SS) and Control Segment (CS), through a cause and effect analysis of anomalies and a failure analysis. In GPS Block III, to achieve more stringent integrity performance, safety requirements are integrated into the system design and development from its starting phase to the final phase. Galileo's integrity performance is provided in the Integrity Support Message (ISM) format, as Galileo utilizes a Dual Frequency Multi Constellation (DFMC) Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) and Advanced Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (ARAIM) to serve safety critical applications. The integrity performance of Galileo is ensured by using a methodology similar to GPS Block II (i.e. continuous performance monitoring and maintenance on the system). The integrity assurance procedures reviewed in this paper can be utilized for a new satellite navigation system that will be developed in the near future.

위성항법시스템(GNSS)을 민간항공 분야에 활용하기 위해서는 국제민간항공기구가 정한 비행단계별 정확성(Accuracy), 무결성(integrity), 연속성(continuity), 가용성(availability) 요 구조건을 만족시켜야 한다. 본 논문에서는 GBAS, GRAS 등 지상기반 위성항법보강시스템 개발에 활용될 수 있는 CNSS 원격 무결성 감시시스템을 제안하고 개발결과에 대해 기술한다. GPS 수신기와 안테나로 구성된 위성신호 수신장치는 RS-232 to TC/IP 프로토콜 변환장치를 통해 데이터 처리 및 분석을 수행하는 신호처리장치의 Host PC에 연결되도록 설계되었다. 이는 GPS 수신기의 설치 위치 제한을 극복하고 수신기와 안테나 간의 물리적 거리를 줄일 수 있어 GPS 수신 신호의 열화를 방지할 수 있는 방법이다. GPS 데이터를 수신하여 처리하는 신호처리장치는 실시간 운용 및 후처리 운용이 가능하며 GBAS CAT-I급의 무결성 알고리즘과 차분보정 정보 생성을 지원하는 개발 환경을 제공한다.

본 논문에서는 위성항법시스템(Global Navigation Satellite System, GNSS)의 다양화에 따른 위성항법보정시스템(Differential GNSS, DGNSS) 기준국 설계를 위하여, 중국 위성항법시스템인 BeiDou의 의사거리 보정정보 생성 알고리즘과 시뮬레이션 기반의 성능 검증에 대해 중점적으로 다룬다. 먼저 DGNSS 기준국/감시국(Reference Station and Integrity Monitor, RSIM)에서의 국제적 표준 및 요구성능에 대해 살펴보고, BeiDou 연동제어문서(Interface Control Document, ICD)를 기반으로 위성의 위치를 추정하고 위성시계 옵셋과 사용자 수신기의 시계오차, 그리고 GPS(Global Positioning System)와 BeiDou 위성의 시스템 타임 옵셋을 계산하여 BeiDou 의사거리 보정정보(Pseudorange Correction, PRC)를 생성한다. GPS/BeiDou 시뮬레이터를 연동한 성능검증 플랫폼을 기반으로 BeiDou 보정정보의 오차를 계산하고, 그 측위정확도를 분석하여 성능검증을 수행하였다. 실험결과 BeiDou 의사거리 보정정보가 RTCM(Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services)에서 요구하는 기준국 운영 및 보정서비스를 위한 측위성능을 충족함을 확인하였다.

A Ground Based Augmentation System (GBAS) is an enabling technology for an aircraft's precision approach based on a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). However, GBAS is vulnerable to interference, so effective GNSS interference detection and mitigation methods need to be employed. In this paper, an intentional GNSS interference detection and characterization algorithm is proposed. The algorithm uses Automatic Gain Control (AGC) gain and adaptive notch filter parameters to classify types of incoming interference and to characterize them. The AGC gain and adaptive lattice IIR notch filter parameter values in GNSS receivers are examined according to interference types and power levels. Based on those data, the interference detection and characterization algorithm is developed and Monte Carlo simulations are carried out for performance analysis of the proposed method. Here, the proposed algorithm is used to detect and characterize single-tone continuous wave interference, swept continuous wave interference, and band-limited white Gaussian noise. The algorithm can be used for GNSS interference monitoring in an excessive Radio Frequency Interference environment which causes loss of receiver tracking. This interference detection and characterization algorithm will be used to enhance the interference mitigation algorithm.
