Recently, variety services are more and more developed due to supply of PDA, cellular phone, and etc. Also, a services based on location information are very helpful in traffic, shopping, and emergency. Thus the user position is positively necessary for these services. One of the latest applications in GPS is the E911 call service for wireless phones. In this case, current GPS Navigation accuracy meets the FCC requirements but the hardware size and power consumption of GPS is issued for implementation. And, some case of applications need to snapshot location solution with fast TTFF(Time-To-Fist-Fix) than continuous location solution. The software GPS receiver could be the solution ...

The GPS tracking loop consists of three parts in general: discriminator, loop filter and DCO (Digitally Controlled Oscillator). The loop filter is the main part of the tracking loop designed to ensure a good tracking performance. Generally, the loop filter is designed using classical PI(Proportional Integral) control. Although the carrier Doppler and code Doppler are generated by the same relative movement between the satellite and the user, often, the loop filters for each tracking loop are designed separately and independently. Sometimes, they are used in a combined manner such as carrier aided code tracking, FLL assisted PLL, etc. For better GPS signal tracking, we need to design the FLL/PLL/DLL altogether optimally. The purpose of this paper is to design a GPS receiver tracking loop based on the Kalman filter in a combined manner. Also, the proposed GPS receiver tracking loop is compared with a conventional tracking loop in terms of the transfer function and the DCO input. This paper shows that conventional tracking loop is equal to the Kalman filter based tracking loop.

This paper presents a design of a real-time software GPS receiver which runs on a PC. The software GPS receiver has advantages over conventional hardware based receivers in terms of flexibility and efficiency in application oriented system design and modification. In odor to reduce the processing time of the software operations in the receiver, a shared memory structure is used with a dynamic data control, and the byte-type IF data is processed through an Open Multi-Processing technique in the mixer and integrator which requires the most computational load. A high speed data acquisition device is used to capture the incoming high-rate IF signals. The FFT-IFFT correlation technique is used for initial acquisition and FLL assisted PLL is used for carrier tracking. All software modules are operated in sequence and are synchronized with pre-defined time scheduling. The performance of the designed software GPS receiver is evaluated by running it in real-time using the real GPS signals.

In location-based services, most trigger technologies have been implemented on the server side by periodically requesting the locations of mobile phones from mobile network servers. However, bottlenecks and communication interruptions occur when the servers are overloaded by trigger requests. In this letter, we propose a new multilevel location trigger specification which distributes the event detecting role to mobile phones and redesigns the location triggering into a multilevel step. Our suggested location trigger specification can reduce bottlenecks caused by triggers in a mobile core network and reduce power consumption caused by embedded GPS devices in mobile phones.

최근 위성을 통한 위치정보서비스를 이용하여 응용서비스를 제공하려는 움직임이 늘고 있다. 이처럼 위치기반서비스(LBS: Location Based Service)를 제공하려는 현재의 추세를 볼 때에 단말에 위치기반을 위한 기능은 필수적인 추가사항이며 이를 위한 단말의 부담은 고려해야 할 사항이다. 그러나 A-GPS(Assisted GPS) 기술 중 A-GPS Server(Assistance GPS Server)을 이용함으로써 단말에 부담을 적게 하면서 위치기반의 서비스를 제공받을 수 있고, 핸드오버 지연을 효과적으로 줄일 수 있다면 1 석 2 조의 효과를 얻을 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 기존 PMIPv6(Proxy Mobile IPv6) 메커니즘에 A-GPS Server 를 두어서 효과적인 핸드오버 수행과정을 거치고, 위치기반서비스(LBS)를 제공하는 메커니즘을 제안한다.

In AGPS method, user position can be obtained even in the shadow region by improving signal sensitivity. A hybrid long integration scheme employing both coherent and non-coherent integration method is commonly used in AGPS receivers. Because coherent loss increases as residual frequency become large, residual frequency should be minimized to maximize coherent integration gain. This paper presents performance analysis of residual frequency estimator using FFT in fine-time assistance AGPS method. Considering the hardware complexity and the estimation accuracy, optimal length of FFT is proposed for GPS L1 C/A signal. Signal sensitivity for estimating the residual frequency is also analysed. By field experimental results, it is found that the residual frequency can be successfully estimated using 1 second snap-shot data when GPS signal strength is larger than -150 dBm and its RMS error is 3Hz.

본 논문은 기존 이동통신 단말기에서 Network-Assisted GPS 기반 위치측위방법의 개선에 관한 것으로서 이동통신 단말기가 전원이 켜져 있는 동안에는 항상 주기적으로 GPS 측위를 수행하도록 구현하고, 측위 된 위치 값을 단말기 내부 메모리에 저장하여 관리하게 구현함으로써 측위시간 단축 및 in-building 진입여부를 용이하게 판단할 수 있도록 구현하였으며, 이때 이동통신 단말기가 주기적 위치측위를 수행함으로써 발생하는 배터리 소모량을 최소화하기 위해 GPS 가시 환경 여부, 이동통신단말기의 이동성에 따라 GPS 측위 주기를 유연하게 조정함으로써 대기시간을 최대화 하는 방안을 제안했다. GPS 가시환경 및 음영환경을 구분하기 위하여 20초 동안 GPS 측위가 불가능하면 음영지역으로 정의 했다. 그리고, 단말기의 이동 여부에 따라 GPS 측위 주기를 조절하기 위해 5회 누적된 위치 정보를 이용한 누적 속도가 0.5 ~ 0.8m/sec 이하이면 정지상태로 정의했다. 이를 바탕으로 가시지역 및 음영지역에서 정지상태에서 GPS 측위 주기를 본 논문에서 제시한 주기로 설정한 경우 실제 단순 주기적인 GPS 위치 측위 대비 단말기 전류 소모량이 20 ~ 30% 이상 감소함을 확인했다.

The GPS new civil signal is modulated on the L2 carrier at a frequency of 1227.6MHz. The L2C signal is composed of two multiplexed code signals, which include CM code with a 10,230 chip sequency repeating every 20ms, and CL code which has a 767,250 chip sequency repeating every 1.5 seconds. Thus, the new civil signal have much improved cross correlation properties so that the position fixing can be possible even with very weak signals. However, it requires very long acquisition time because of its long code length. This paper presents an efficient signal acquisition method for L2C AGPS receiver. Snapshot mode and coarse time assistance are assumed and total integration time is given by 1.5 sec. By SNR worksheet and computer simulation, it is proven that L2C signal can be acquired with very weak power less than -150dBm. Considering the acquisition time and the sensitivity, it is recommended that the highest power signal is acquired with CM code first to reduce TTFF. By the timing synchronization, at this time, search space of the code phase for other signals can be greatly reduced so that CL code can be used in signal acquisition to maximize sensitivity with small computation.

The architecture of the CDMA mobile system (CMS) is developed based on three function groups - service resource, service control, and service management groups. In this paper, the CMS architecture is discussed from the point of view of implementing these functions. The variable length packets are used for transmission. The synchronization clock signals are derived form the GPS receiver. The open loop and closed loop techniques are used for the power control. The internationally accepted signaling and network protocols are employed. The call control for the primary services in designed to provide efficient mobile telecommunication services. The softer handoff is implemented in one card. The mobile assisted handoff and the network assisted handoff are employed in the soft and hard handoffs. The authentication is based on the secret data which includes random numbers. The management functions, which include the location management, resource management, cell boundary management and OAM management, are implemented to warrant the system efficiency, maximum capacity and high reliability. The architecture ensures that the CMS is flexible and expandable to provide subscribers with economic and efficient system configuration. The dynamic power control, adaptive channel allocation. and dynamic cell boundary management are recommended for future work.
