In the GPS/DR integrated system, the GPS position(or velocity) is used to compensate the DR output and to calibrate errors of the DR sensor. This synergistic relationship ensures that the calibrated DR accuracy can be maintained even when the GPS signal is blocked. Because of the observability problem, however, the DR sensors are not sufficiently calibrated when the vehicle speed is low. This problem can be solved if we use a multi-antenna GPS receiver for attitude determination instead of conventional one. This paper designs a two-antenna GP receiver integrated with DR sensors. The proposed integration system has three remarkable features. First, the DR sensor can be calibrated regardless of the vehicle speed with the aid of two-antenna GPS receiver. Secondly, the search space of integer ambiguities in GPS carrier-phase measurements is reduced to a part of the surface of the sphere using DR heading. Thirdly, the detection resolution of cycle-slips in GPS carrier-phase measurements is improved with the aid of DR heading. From the experimental result, it is shown that the search space is drastically reduced to about 3/20 of the non-aided case and the cycle-slips of 1 or half cycle can be detected.

The GPS can provide accurate position information on the earth. But GPS receiver can't give position information inside buildings. DR(Dead-Reckoning) or INS(Inertial Navigation System) gives position information continuously indoors as well as outdoors, because they do not depend on the external navigation information. But in general, the inertial sensors severely suffer from their drift errors, the error of these navigation system increases with time. GPS and DR sensors can be integrated together with Kalman filter to overcome these problems. In this paper, we developed a personal navigation system which can be carried by person, using GPS and electronic pedometer. The person's footstep is detected by an accelerometer installed in vertical direction and the direction of movement is sensed by gyroscope and magnetic compass. In this case the step size is varying with person and changing with circumstance, so determining step size is the problem. In order to calculate the step size of detected footstep, the neural network method is used. The teaming pattern of the neural network is determined by human walking pattern data provided by 3-axis accelerometer and gyroscope. We can calculate person's location with displacement and heading from this information. And this neural network method that calculates step size gives more improved position information better than fixed step size.

The Kinematic GPS is well known to provide a quite good accuracy of positioning within an level. Although kinematic GPS assures high precision measurement on the basis of an appreciable distance between a reference station and an observational point, it has measurable distance restriction within 20 km from a reference station on land. Therefore, it is necessary to make out a simple and low-cost method to obtain accurate positioning information without distance restriction In this paper, the velocity integration method to get the precise velocity information of a ship is explained. The experimental results of Zig-zag maneuver and Williamson turn as the ship's maneuvering test, and other experimental results of ship's movement during leaving and entering the port with low speed were shown. From the experimental results, ship's course, speed and position are compared with those obtained by kinematic-GPS, velocity integration method and dead reckoning position using Gyro-compass and Doppler-log.

In this study, a carrier smoothed global positioning system / dead reckoning (CSGPS/DR) integrated system for high-precision trajectory estimation for the purpose of vehicle navigation was proposed. Existing code-based GPS has a low position accuracy, and carrier-phase differential global positioning system (CPDGPS) has a long waiting time for high-precision positioning and has a problem of high cost due to the establishment of infrastructure. To resolve this, the continuity of a trajectory was guaranteed by integrating CSGPS and DR. The results of the experiment indicated that the trajectory precision of the code-based GPS showed an error performance of more than 30cm, while that of the CSGPS/DR integrated system showed an error performance of less than 10cm. Based on this, it was found that the trajectory precision of the proposed CSGPS/DR integrated system is superior to that of the code-based GPS.

본 연구에서는 전술급 무인항공기의 GPS 신호간섭 및 재밍(Jamming)/기만(Spoofing) 공격 시 위치항법 정보의 취약성을 보완하기 위해 개발한 영상정보 기반 실시간 비행체 위치보정 시스템을 기술하고자 한다. 전술급 무인항공기는 GPS 두절 시 항법장비가 GPS/INS 통합항법에서 DR/AHRS 모드로 전환하여 자동비행이 가능하나, 위치 항법의 경우 대기속도 및 방위각을 활용한 추측항법(DR, Dead Reckoning)으로 인해 시간이 지나면 오차가 누적되어 비행체 위치 파악 및 데이터링크 안테나 자동추적이 제한되는 등의 문제점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 위치 오차의 누적을 최소화하기 위해 영상감지기를 이용한 특정지역 위치보정점을 바탕으로 비행체 자세, 영상감지기 방위각/고각 및 수치지도 데이터(DTED)를 활용하여 비행체 위치를 계산하고 이를 실시간으로 항법장비에 보정하는 시스템을 개발하였다. 또한 GPS 시뮬레이터를 이용한 지상시험과 추측항법 모드의 비행시험으로 영상정보 기반 실시간 비행체 위치보정 시스템의 기능 및 성능을 검증하였다.

In this paper, a map-matching (MM) algorithm which combines an estimated position with digital road data is proposed. The presented algorithm using a virtual track is appropriate for a MEMS-based pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) system, which can be used in mobile devices. Most of the previous MM algorithms are for car navigation systems and GPS-based navigation system, so existing MM algorithms are not appropriate for the pure DR-based pedestrian navigation system. The biggest problem of previous MM algorithms is that they cannot determine the correct road segment (link) due to the DR characteristics. In DR-based navigation system, the current position is propagated from the previous estimated position. This means that the MM result can be placed on a wrong link when MM algorithm fails to decide the correct link at once. It is a critical problem. Previous algorithms never overcome this problem because they did not consider pure DR characteristics. The MM algorithm using the virtual track is proposed to overcome this problem with improved accuracy. Performance of the proposed MM algorithm was verified by experiments.

CNS(Car Navigation System)는 국내외적으로 자율주행차량(Autonomous Land Vehicle)연구분야에서 주행계획 용도보다는 일반차량에서 운전자 보조 시스템으로 더 많이 쓰이고 있다. 본 논문에서는 CNS에 한 연구분야인 Global Path Planning의 새로운 위치추적 알고리즘 결과를 개발하였다. 일본과 같은 경우에는 벌써 이러한 CNS의 연구가 활발히 진행되어서 현재는 상품화되어 년간 $40{\sim}50$만개 정도가 팔리고 있고 미국 및 유럽 각국(EC)에서도 CNS의 개발 및 상품화가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 우리나라의 경우엔 아직 주행중인 차량의 현재위치를 구하고 이를 Digital Map상에 실시간으로 구현하는 제 1세대 CNS가 연구 중에 있으나 아직은 초기 단계에 있다. 이에 본 논문은 현재까지 우리나라에서 연구중인 인공위성과 범지구적 위치결정체계(Global Positioning System)만을 이용한 차량 위치 추정 방법에 추측항법체계(Dead_Reckoning)라는 다른 방법을 결합하여 기존의 차량 위치 추정 오차를 줄여주는 새로운 알고리즘을 제시하고 실제차량에서의 실험결과를 보인다.

This paper proposes a method for PDR (Pedestrian Dead-Reckoning) using a low cost IMU. Generally, GPS has been widely used for localization of pedestrians. However, GPS is disabled in the indoor environment such as in buildings. To solve this problem, this research suggests the PDR scheme with an IMU attached to the pedestrian's waist. However, despite the fact many methods have been proposed to estimate the pedestrian's position, but their results are not sufficient. One of the most important factors to improve performance is, a new calibration method that has been proposed to obtain the reliable sensor data. In addition to this calibration, the PDR method is also proposed to detect steps, where estimation schemes of step length, attitude, and heading angles are developed. Peak and zero crossings are detected to count the steps from 3-axis acceleration values. For the estimation of step length, a nonlinear step model is adopted to take advantage of using one parameter. Complementary filter and zero angular velocity are utilized to estimate the attitude of the IMU module and to minimize the heading angle drift. To verify the effectiveness of this scheme, a real-time system is implemented and demonstrated. Experimental results show an accuracy of below 1% and below 3% in distance and position errors, respectively, which can be achievable using a high cost IMU.
