비콘 수신기는 위성에서 송출된 비콘 신호를 검출하여 그 신호세기를 측정하는 장치이다. 위성에서 송출된 비콘 신호는 지구국의 안테나를 목표 위성 방향으로 이동시키는 포지셔너의 조정 및 송신출력 제어 목적을 위한 것으로 무변조 저전력 연속파(CW)로 구성되어 있다. 일반적으로 비콘 신호 검출은 협대역 아날로그 필터를 사용한 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Intensity) 방식이 대표적으로 사용되고 있으나, 온도변화 및 장시간 동작에 따른 위성 송출 비콘 주파수 변동이 발생됨에 따라 비콘 수신기에서 주파수를 추적하는 스캔 기능 구현을 필요로 한다. 본 설계에서는 보다 빠른 비콘 신호 검출을 위하여 협대역 디지털필터를 다중 배열하여 비콘 주파수를 추적하고, SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) 방식에 의한 비콘 신호 검출방식 수신기로 설계한다. 이를 위하여 위성과 지구국 사이의 강우감쇠를 고려한 무선채널 링크 버젯을 사용하여 비콘 신호 수신 $C/N_o$ 및 비콘 신호 검출을 위한 필요 C/N을 고려한 뒤 디지털필터의 대역폭 및 배열 개수를 도출한다.

Due to the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) modernization, recently launched GNSS satellites transmit signals at various frequency bands such as L1, L2 and L5. Considering the Korean Positioning System (KPS) signal and other GNSS augmentation signals in the future, there is a high probability of applying more complex communication techniques to the new GNSS signals. For the reason, GNSS receivers based on flexible Software Defined Radio (SDR) concept needs to be developed to evaluate various experimental communication techniques by accessing each signal processing module in detail. This paper proposes a novel SDR-based A-GNSS receiver capable of processing multi-GNSS/RNSS signals at multi-frequency bands. Due to the modular structure, the proposed receiver has high flexibility and expandability. For real-time implementation, A-GNSS server software is designed to provide immediate delivery of satellite ephemeris data on demand. Due to the sampling bandwidth limitation of RF front-ends, multiple SDRs are considered to process the multi-GNSS/RNSS multi-frequency signals simultaneously. To avoid the overflow problem of sampled RF data, an efficient memory buffer management strategy was considered. To collect and process the multi-GNSS/RNSS multi-frequency signals in real-time, the proposed SDR A-GNSS receiver utilizes multiple threads implemented on a CPU and multiple NVIDIA CUDA GPGPUs for parallel processing. To evaluate the performance of the proposed SDR A-GNSS receiver, several experiments were performed with field collected data. By the experiments, it was shown that A-GNSS requirements can be satisfied sufficiently utilizing only milliseconds samples. The continuous signal tracking performance was also confirmed with the hundreds of milliseconds data for multi-GNSS/RNSS multi-frequency signals and with the ten-seconds data for multi-GNSS/RNSS single-frequency signals.

This paper considers the ability of counting and positioning multi-targets by using a mobile UWB radar device. After a background subtraction process, distinguishing between clutters and human body signals, the position of targets will be computed using weighted Gaussian mixture methods. While computer vision offers many advantages, it has limited performance in poor visibility conditions (e.g., at night, haze, fog or smoke). UWB radar can provide a complementary technology for detecting and tracking humans, particularly in poor visibility or through-wall conditions. As we know, for 2D measurement, one method is the use of at least two receiver antennas. Another method is the use of one mobile radar receiver. This paper tried to investigate the position detection of the stationary human body using the movement of one UWB radar module.

Automatic target recognition surveying method is very important technology one-man surveying system. But in the case of loss of prism's position, it have to be re-tracking for searching it, consuming the searching time and complicated in processing. In this study, it is proposed new GPS receiver combination technology for orientation of both. In conclusion, the robotic TS(totalstation) is well assisted by absolute coordinates from single GPS receiver and multi-functional surveying instrument.

A design of CPS attitude determination system is described in this paper. The designed system is a low cost high precision 24 channel single frequency GPS(Global Positioning System) receiver which provides a precise absolute heading and pitch (or roll) as well as a position. It uses commercial chip-set and consists of two RF parts, two signal-tracking parts, a processor, memory parts and I/Os. In order to determine precise attitude, accurate carrier phase measurements and an efficient integer ambiguity resolution method are required. To meet these requirements, a PLL (Phase Locked Loops) is designed, and an algorithm called ARCE (Ambiguity Resolution with Constraint Equation) is adopted. The hardware and software structure of the system will be described, and the performance evaluated under various conditions will be presented. The test results will promise that more reliable navigation system be possible because the system provides all navigational information such as position, velocity, time and attitude.

In this paper, the design, construction and basic characteristics of an electronically adaptive array antenna for the GPS receiver is described. The susceptibility of the GPS signals to the interference is of concern to the GPS user community. Because of the low received power of the GPS signals, outages can easily occur due to the unintentional interference and the easily obtainable low cost GPS jammer denying access to the GPS signals. We propose a technique of the adaptive array antenna that detects the GPS interference sources and controls the null beam pattern only toward the jamming sources to acquire GPS navigation data after acquisition and tracking of the GPS signals.

Since the first commercialization of beacon-based services in 2011, various services have been provided to improve Bluetooth performance, and research has been conducted to accurately recognize user locations using beacons. The various measurement methods of indoor positioning systems (IPS) include methods using receiver signal strength indicator (RSSI) the strength of which varies greatly in accuracy depending on whether there are obstacles such as cement walls or doors. In this paper, we present a method to provide accurate positioning services even in the presence of obstacles in indoor spaces. To this end, we connect the HM-10 module supporting the beacon with Arduino Uno, to place beacons in three directions in real-world indoor space, and derive an optimal trilateration equation. Based on the derivation, we select the optimal expression for calculating the distance between the beacon and the moving station and use it to verify the coordinate determination for the moving station.
