  • The purpose of this study is to maximize the use of framework data by a method for updating road framework data using a economical, rapid, and accurate Vehicle-based kinematic survey to get the latest road data among "transportation framework data" which was built in 2003. We collected data using a Vehicle-based kinematic survey with DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System) in Daejeon and Pyeongtaek city and verified the accuracy of line and point features between surveying and previous results. The result showed that Daejeon city which is located near GPS CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Station)s and receive a signal well had lower errors than 1/5,000 digital base map, and Pyeongtaek city which is located far from the stations and receive a signal badly had errors beyond the limits. The study showed that postprocessing method or Total Station surveying should be used where signals cannot be detected well after analyzing a receiving rate from GPS CORSs, the stations of other organizations should be shared, and further studies are needed.

  • UWB impulse radio signals have an very short duration, extremely wide bandwidth and share the same frequency spectrum with other existing systems. It was determined by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that UWB systems could cause interference with other systems, such as Global Positioning System (GPS) for example. Therefore, at present. the FCC has restricted the use of UWB systems to frequencies above 3.1㎓. In this paper, We evaluated performance of UWB system using proposed pulses in [1][2] that are strictly limited in time to remove interference while, at the same time, contain their power distribution to a frequency band from 3.1㎓ to 10.6㎓. In particular, We evaluated the BER Performance in relation to system parameters such as pulse duration. $\delta$, the number of users. Nu. and the number of symbols, M. We found the optimal pulse duration $\delta$ through computer simulation using developed UWB pulses in [1][2]. It is shown that performance evaluation between the UWB communication system using these UWB pulses [1][2]and the Gaussian monocycle pulse in M-ary PPM and BPSK schemes. These results can be contributed to construct M-ary PPM UWB communication system in terms of multiuser parameters and pulse duration.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of Network-RTK(VRS) survey for applying to Ground Control Points(GCPs) survey required for mapping aerial photographs. Network-RTK has been serviced by National Geographic Information Institute since 2007. On the basis of the global coordinates system(ITRF2000), the coordinates of GCPs determined by Static GNSS survey with relative positioning techniques were regarded as accurate values. The coordinates of GCPs were also determined by Network-RTK survey using two kinds of receivers, and then they were converted into the global coordinates system(ITRF2000) by applying suitable geoid model and coordinate transformation. These coordinates of GCPs were compared with those from Static GNSS survey. The root mean squares error (RMSE) of coordinate differences between Network-RTK and Static GNSS was ${\pm}2.0cm$ in plane and ${\pm}7.0cm$ in height. Therefore, Network-RTK survey that enables single GNSS receiver to measure positions in short time is a practical alternative in positioning GCPs to either RTK survey that uses more than two sets of GNSS receivers or Static GNSS survey that requires longer observation time.

  • Generally, loop filter based scalar tracking loops (LF-STL) have been used for global positioning system (GPS) signal tracking algorithm. This paper introduces the accuracy and robustness of linear-quadratic-Gaussian based vector tracking loop (LQG-VTL) algorithm instead of LF-STL. To verify the accuracy of LQG-VTL, we confirm that the measurements estimation errors of the LQG based scalar tracking loops (LQG-STL) are improved by more than 60 % compared to LF-STL. Also, when LQG-VTL is used, measurements estimation errors decrease compared to LQG-STL, and position/velocity estimation errors also decrease as the number of satellites increases. To verify the robustness of LQG-VTL, we confirm that LQG-VTL can estimate position/velocity and measurements successively compared to LF-STL in temporal signal attenuation of 30 dB-Hz during 4 seconds.

  • To share an understanding of trajectory measurement in surveys using borehole, this tutorial summarizes the relevant mathematical principles of the borehole deviation survey based on coordinate transform. For uncased or open holes, calculations of the azimuth-deviation-tool face rotation using three-component accelerometer and magnetometer measurements are summarized. For the steel-cased holes, calculations are based on the time-derivative formula of the coordinate transform matrix; yaw-pitch-roll angles through time are mathematically determined by integrating the threecomponent angular velocity measurements from the gyroscope while also removing the Earth's rotation effect. Sensor and data fusion to increase the accuracy of borehole deviation survey is explained with an example of the method. These principles of borehole deviation surveys can be adapted for attitude estimation in air-borne surveys or for positioning in tunnels where global positioning system (GPS) signals cannot be accessed. Information on the optimization filter that must be incorporated in sensor fusion is introduced to help future research.

  • Moving context determination is an important issue to be resolved in a mobile computing environment. This paper presents a method for recognizing and classifying a mobile user's moving context by Euclidean distance similarity. In the proposed method, basic data are gathered using Global Positioning System (GPS) and accelerometer sensors, and by using the data, the system decides which moving situation the user is in. The decided situation is one of the four categories: stop, walking, run, and moved by a car. In order to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme, we have implemented applications using several variations of Euclidean distance similarity on the Android system, and measured the accuracies. Experimental results show that the proposed system achieves more than 90% accuracy.

  • Recently, the development of sensor devices has accelerated researches on advanced technologies like Wireless Sensor Networks. Moreover, spatial sensors using GPS lead to the era of the Ubiquitous Computing Environment which generally uses spatial information and non-spatial information together. In this new era, a real-time processing system for spatial sensor data is essential. In this reason, new data processing systems called DSMS(Data Stream Management System) are being developed by many researchers. However, since most of them do not support geometry types and spatial functions to process spatial sensor data, they are not suitable for the Ubiquitous Computing Environment. For these reasons, in this paper, we designed and implemented a spatial DSMS by extending STREAM which stands for STanford stREam datA Manager, to solve these problems. We added geometry types and spatial functions to STREAM in order to process spatial sensor data efficiently. In addition, we implemented a Spatial Object Manager to manage shared spatial objects within the system. Especially, we implemented the Simple Features Specification for SQL of OGC for interoperability and applied algorithms in GEOS to our system.

  • Modern information technologies continue to provide industries with new and improved methods. With the rapid development of Machine to Machine (M2M) communication, a smart container supply chain management is formed based on high performance sensors, computer vision, Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites, and Globle System for Mobile (GSM) communication. Existing supply chain management has limitation to real time container tracking. This paper focuses on the studies and implementation of real time container chain management with the development of the container identification system and automatic alert system for interrupts and for normal periodical alerts. The concept and methods of smart container modeling are introduced together with the structure explained prior to the implementation of smart container tracking alert system. Firstly, the paper introduces the container code identification and recognition algorithm implemented in visual studio 2010 with Opencv (computer vision library) and Tesseract (OCR engine) for real time operation. Secondly it discusses the current automatic alert system provided for real time container tracking and the limitations of those systems. Finally the paper summarizes the challenges and the possibilities for the future work for real time container tracking solutions with the ubiquitous mobile and satellite network together with the high performance sensors and computer vision. All of those components combine to provide an excellent delivery of supply chain management with outstanding operation and security.

  • In a power system, an out-of-step condition causes a variety of risk such as serious damage to system elements, tripping of loads and generators, mal-operation of relays, etc. Therefore, it is very important to detect the out-of-step condition and take a proper measure. Several out-of-step detection methods have been employed in relays until now. Most common method used for an out-of-step detection is based on the transition time through the blocking impedance area in R-X diagram. Also, the R-R dot out-of-step relay, the out-of-step prediction method and the adaptive out-of-step relay using the equal area criterion (EAC) and Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) technology have been developed. This paper presents the out-of-step detection algorithm using the time variation of the complex power. The complex power is calculated and the mechanical power of the generator is estimated by using the electrical power, and then the out-of-step detection algorithm which is based on the complex power and the estimated mechanical power, is presented. This algorithm may detect the instant when the generator angle passes the Unstable Equilibrium Point (UEP). The proposed out-of-step algorithm is verified and tested by using Alternative Transient Program/Electromagnetic Transient Program (ATP/EMTP) MODELS.

  • In the paper, we predict the number of multi-GNSS satellites and visible satellites with the navigation satellite launch plans and their nominal orbit parameters. Based on the methodology, the multi-GNSS navigation performance and DOP (Dilution of Precision) variation from 2015 to 2020 were forecasted by the Matlab simulation. To calculate the position using the multi-GNSS constellation, we determined the time-offset between the two different systems. Two different algorithms were considered for the sake of time-offset determination; that of each was applied to system level and user side. Also, the results from two algorithms were compared for evaluating each performance. For the reality, we applied the 3D map information to the simulation, which is expected to contribute for predicting the future navigation performance in urban canyon.
