  • Air Traffic Management aims to fulfill the requirement of the aviation demander by constructing the most effective and safety aviation systems for providing safety and cost-effective service. All concerned parties of aviation present the needs of improving Air Traffic Management system for solving the issue of the current system and the air traffic capacity in the 21st century, and introduce the significant improvements from the conventional technology and method for the past 40 years. Accordingly, ICAO promotes the development of innovative procedures and technologies to solve the problems and meet the demands. It is the concept of Performance based Navigation(PBN) based on Communication, Navigation, and Surveillance/Air Traffic Management(CNS/ATM). This study defines differences between RNAV and RNP RNAV as methods of air navigation based on the CNS/ATM, and needs and requirements of PBN as an emerging global standard. It also outlines basic elements supporting and implementing the PBN concept.

  • Recently, inertial sensors like gyros and accelerometers have been quite miniaturized by Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology. JAXA is developing a MEM-based GPS/INS hybrid navigation system named Micro-GAIA. The navigation performance of Micro-GAIA was evaluated through off-line analysis by using flight test data. The estimation errors of the roll, pitch, and azimuth were $0.03^{\circ}$, $0.05^{\circ}$, $0.05^{\circ}$ $(1{\sigma})$, respectively. he horizontal position errors after 60-second GPS outages were reduced to 25 m CEP. The attitude errors and position errors are nearly half of ones reported previously[2]. Furthermore, using the adaptive Kalman filters, the robustness against the uncertainty of the measurement noise was improved. Comparing the innovation-based and residual-based adaptive Kalman filters, it was confirmed that the latter is robuster than the former.

  • In this paper, we survey recent trends of International Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) organizations such as the International Committee on GNSS (ICG), International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), International Maritime Organization (IMO), and International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and investigate their impact on the maritime and aviation sectors. Each international organization promotes international cooperation, improvement of service quality, assurance of security, compliance with international regulations, and technological innovation and development. ICG develops a variety of satellite navigation enhancement systems. ICAO establishes international aviation regulations and standards to enhance aviation safety and security. IMO establishes international shipping conventions and rules to protect and regulate the shipping environment. Lastly, ITU establishes international communication regulations and standards. Investigation of such international organizations plays an important role in increasing the efficiency and reliability of GNSS systems. Each international organization promotes international cooperation, improvement of service quality, assurance of security, compliance with international regulations, and technological innovation and development. In the future, interoperability and compatibility with new satellite navigation systems and other GNSS and satellite navigation enhancement systems must be secured, so and thus investigation of international organizations must be conducted first.

  • Inertial Navigation System(INS) has been used in the field of air navigation for a long time but is not popular in general aviation due to high price. Recently low-price GPS is available but vulnerable to radio interference. As an alternative on these problems, GPS/INS integrated navigation system has been considered. GPS/INS is capable of implementing navigation with low-price inertial sensors but its accuracy is dependent upon how much drift of INS may be calibrated by using GPS. In order to apply GPS/INS to air navigation, it must be investigated how long drift of INS in case of no GPS aiding will be bounded within requirements for safe flight. From the above motivation, the flight test for GPS/INS navigation system was conducted in order to make sense its performance in air navigation and its result was shown.

  • This study will be regarded significant in terms that empirical analysis was used to prove "Aviation Safety", a variable which had not been regarded as a airline choice factor within Korea air transport market so far, has an effect on the aviation consumers' airline preference change and choice after recent frequent aviation accidents. On releasing this paper. I wish, it can be another opportunity for Korean two national flag airlines to reappraise and reinforce the significance of "aviation safety" and set forth immediate vigorous efforts to support the government's aviation safety improvement countermeasures The study was performed to provide data and information for this.

  • International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has recommended the adoption of performance-based navigation (PBN), which utilizes global navigation satellite system (GNSS). As a part of efforts to adopt PBN in South Korea, preparations have been made to implement GNSS. In Oct. 2014, Korea augmentation satellite system (KASS) was officially launched for development. A set of navigation devices need to be on-board for an airplane to utilize GNSS. GNSS navigation devices are used for different phases of flights through en-route, terminal, departure, approach and a wide variety of specification standards have been proposed for GNSS navigation. In this paper, we investigate the many proposed standards for GNSS navigation devices and their interfaces. This paper can be useful for designing procedures and flight test used in KASS implementation.

  • Development of air navigation and avionics technologies led to solve the problems that conventional ATM system had. The International Civil Aviation Organization developed the Aviation System Block Upgrades (ASBU) initiative in order to harmonize global ATM planning and technology upgrades and urged to implement the recommendations for the member States. The ASBUs provide the road map to assist air navigation service providers in the development of their individual strategic plans and investment decisions. In this paper, the operational concepts in 2 performance improvement areas, Airport Operations and Globally Interoperable System and Data in ASBUs, have been summarized. In Airport Operations area the new management technologies and required systems are presented for optimizing the traffic flow in airport area and terminal airspace. Data format standards and required systems presented for information integration and usage of the new system under Globally Interoperable System and Data area.
