이 연구에서는 국토해양부 해양교통시설과 위성항법중앙사무소가 운영하고 있는 DGNSS 기준국의 신호수신환경을 파악하기 위해 관측자료의 TEQC 품질평가와 현장조사를 병행하였다. TEQC는 GPS 수신기로 관측한 원시자료를 RINEX형식으로 변환 편집하고, 관측자료의 품질을 점검하는데 이용하는 GPS 전처리 소프트웨어이다. TEQC 품질점검 기능을 통해 GPS 관측자료의 데이터수신율, L1과 L2 신호의 의사거리 다중경로오차, 사이클슬립에 관한 지수를 산출하였고, 이를 현장조사결과와 상호 비교하였다. 장기 관측 자료의 TEQC 품질지수 결과를 통하여 시간변화에 따른 관측소의 주변환경 및 장비변화 시점을 간접적으로 확인하였다.

위성항법중앙사무소는 다수의 DGNSS 기준국을 운영하고 있으며, 이 중 일부 기준국은 타 기준국에 비해 TEQC 품질평가 결과가 저조하다. 이에 이 연구는 TEQC 품질평가가 상대적으로 불량한 충주기준국을 대상으로 비교실험을 수행한다. 이전에 다른 관측장비를 이용하여 수행한 동시 관측에서는 TEQC 품질평가가 다른 기준국과 유사한 수준으로 나타나 지형이나 전파방해 등과 같은 주변 환경적인 요인은 아닌 것으로 확인하였다. 이번 충주비교실험은 기존 설치된 관측장비의 이상유무를 고려하여 크게 세 부분으로 나누어 진행한다. 안테나 이상판단은 기존 관측기기에 다른 기종의 안테나로 교체하여 확인하고, 수신기 이상 유무는 분배기를 이용하여 두 수신기에 동시 관측값을 기록하여 판단한다. 마지막으로 케이블의 경우, 상위 두 실험을 통해 수집된 관측자료의 품질평가를 통해 확인 가능하다. 이 연구를 통하여 TEQC 품질평가 저하요인을 확인하고 개선방안을 제시하여 양질의 DGNSS 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, we analyzed the signal environment of 17 DGNSS stations operated by DGPS Central Office through TEQC quality checking, visibility analysis and site visits. With TEQC, we produced times series of four indices of TEQC quality checking: observation ratio, L1 pseudorange multipath, L2 pseudorange multipath, and the frequency of cycle slip events. From visibility analysis, the directions where missing observations are happening were identified and the result was verified through onsite investigation. Without considering TEQC indices at the six sites(Palmido, Eochungdo, Geomundo, Pyeongchang, Seongju, and Chungju), the average TEQC indices were: 98% observation ratio, 0.19m of L1 pseudorange multipath, 0.71m of L2 pseudorange multipath, and 1.3 cycle slips per 1000 observations. The observation ratios at Palmido and Eochungdo were low. It was found that receiver settings were incorrect so that they could track the P2 signal of GPS satellites with L2C capability. No signal-blocking obstacles were found around the Geomundo station except the lighthouse. Thus, we guess that the poor TEQC indices at the site are believed to be caused by problems in the GPS hardware or cables. The low observation ratio at Pyeongchang is being caused by the surrounding hills blocking the satellite view from the south to the northwest directions. Even though all of four TEQC indices were bad at Seongju and Chungju stations, we found that the signal reception environment at the two sites is in good condition. We think that the quality indices got poor probably because of malfunctioning equipment. So, further investigation is needed for the Seongju and Chungju sites.

National Geographic Information Institute has installed the first permanent Global Positioning System (GPS) station SUWN in 1995 and, as of today, the number of sites is 14. In this study, we visited all the 14 stations and determined if the site mount and antenna configuration conforms to the international site guidelines published by International GNSS Service and National Geodetic Survey. The environment around each station was also checked for the possibility of causing positioning errors. In addition, the GPS data quality was evaluated using the quality-checking program called TEQC. As a result of site visits, we found that low stations (TABK, CHJU, KWNJ, and WNJU) have unfavorable environment and TEQC results validated it. TEQC results also showed that the GPS receiver change during years 2005-2006 reduced the multipath errors and the number of cycle slips at every station.

As of September 2002, there are more than 60 operational permanent Global Positioning System (GPS) stations in South Korea. Their data are being used for a variety of purposes: geodynamics, geodesy, real-time navigation, atmospheric science, and geography. Especially, many of the sites are reference stations for DGPS (Differential GPS). However, there has been no comprehensive and qualitative analysis published to evaluate the data quality. In this study, we present preliminary results of our assessment of the permanent GPS sites in South Korea. We have analyzed the multi-path characteristics of each station using a quality-checking software package called TEQC. Another multipath analysis tool based on post-fit phase residuals was used to check the repeating patterns and the amount of the multipath at each site. The long-term stability of each station was analyzed using the root-mean-square (RMS) error of the estimated site positions for one year, which enabled us to evaluate the mount stability. In addition, the number of cycle slips at each site was derived by TEQC. Based on these series of tests, we compared the stability and data quality of permanent GPS stations in South Korea.

The DGNSS Central Office operates 17 DGNSS reference stations. Compared to the other DGNSS sites, the TEQC data quality of some sites is poorer. In this study, we tried to find out the causes that degrade the quality of GPS data for the purpose of improving the signal quality of the DGNSS stations. We selected the Chungju station that is the one of those stations with bad data quality. Through the on-site visit, we found that there is no signal-blocking obstacles. In addition to site surveys, we conducted two experiments; simultaneous observation considering environmental factors and comparison test through equipment replacements to check the malfunctioning of GPS equipments. In the simultaneous test results, we realized that environmental factors do not induce any bad effects on the data quality. In equipment replacement experiments, we confirmed that the data quality is of excellent quality when the test receiver was used instead of the original one installed at the site. When we replaced the antenna instead of the receiver, the data quality was bad. Through those two experiments, we concluded that the receiver is the main factor that degrades the signal quality.
