본 논문에서는 간섭상쇄 기능을 갖춘 지역전파항법 수신기의 GNSS (global navigation satellite system) 위성항법신호 획득성능을 분석하였다. GNSS 항법신호와 동일 주파수영역에 지역전파항법 신호를 사용하여 통합 항법을 수행할 경우 혼신에 의한 영향이 발생하나, 이는 순차적 간섭신호상쇄 알고리즘 등과 같은 간섭상쇄 기술을 통해 어느 정도 극복 가능하다. 하지만 J/S(jamming-to-signal ratio)가 클 경우 잔여 신호와 GNSS신호와의 교차상관 특성에 의해 신호획득 시 잘못 된 검출결과를 보일 수 있다. 본 논문은 Kasami코드를 사용할 경우 GNSS신호와의 혼신에 의한 신호획득 성능저하를 Monte Carlo 시뮬레이션을 통해 분석해 보았으며, 비교를 위해 GNSS Gold 코드의 신호획득 성능과 비교하였다.

In this study, we implemented the data quality monitoring algorithm which is the previous step for real-time Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) correction generation and compared Global Positioning System (GPS) and BeiDou System (BDS). Signal Quality Monitoring (SQM), Data QM, and Measurement QM (MQM) that are well known in Ground Based Augmentation System (GBAS) were used for quality monitoring. SQM and Carrier Acceleration Ramp Step Test (CARST) of MQM result were divided by satellite elevation angle and analyzed. The data which are judged as abnormal are removed and presented as Root Mean Square (RMS), standard deviation, average, maximum, and minimum value.

The position accuracy of the stand-alone Regional Navigation Satellite System (RNSS) users is more than tens of meters because of various error sources in satellite navigation signals. This paper focuses on wide-area differential (WAD) positioning technique, which is already applied in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), in order to improve the position accuracy of RNSS users. According to the simulation results in the very narrow ground network in regional area, the horizontal position error of stand-alone RNSS is about RMS 11.6 m, and that of RNSS with WAD technique, named the WAD-RNSS, is about RMS 2.5 m. The accuracy performance has improved by about 78%.

NSS (Navigation satellite system) provides the information for determining the position, velocity and time of users in real time using satellite-networking, and is classified into GNSS (Global NSS) and RNSS (Regional NSS). Although GNSS services for global users, the exactitude of provided information is dissatisfied with the degree required in modern systems such as unmanned system, autonomous navigation system for aircraft, ship and others, air-traffic control system. Especially, due to concern about the monopoly status of the countries operating it, some other countries have already considered establishing RNSS. The RNSS services for users within a specific area, however, it not only gives more precise information than those from GNSS, but also can be operated independently from the NSS of other countries. Thus, for Korean RNSS, this paper suggests the methodology to design the satellite constellation considering the regional features of Korean Peninsula. It intends to determine the orbits and the arrangement of navigation satellites for minimizing PDOP (Position dilution of precision). PGA (Parallel Genetic Algorithm) geared to solve this nonlinear optimization problem is proposed and STK (System tool kit) software is used for simulating their space flight. The PGA is composed of several GAs and iterates the process that they search the solution for a problem during the pre-specified generations, and then mutually exchange the superior solutions investigated by each GA. Numerical experiments were performed with increasing from four to seven satellites for Korean RNSS. When the RNSS was established by seven satellites, the time ratio that PDOP was measured to less than 5 (i.e. better than 'Good' level on the meaning of the PDOP value) was found to 94.3% and PDOP was always kept at 10 or less (i.e. better than 'Moderate' level).

GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) Ground Station performs GNSS signal acquisition and processing. This system generates error correction information and distributes them to GNSS users. GNSS Ground Station consists of sensor station which contains receiver and meteorological sensor, monitoring and control subsystem which monitors and controls sensor station, control center which generates error correction information, and uplink station which transmits correction information to navigation satellites. Monitoring and control subsystem acquires and processes navigation data from sensor station. The processed data is transmitted to GNSS control center. Monitoring and control subsystem consists of data acquisition module, data formatting and archiving module, data error correction module, navigation determination module, independent quality monitoring module, and system maintenance and management module. The independent quality monitoring module inspects navigation signal, data, and measurement. This paper introduces independent quality monitoring and performs the analysis using measurement data.

Since the global positioning system receivers on the surface of the Earth use satellite signals sent from a remote distance and the intensity of received signals is weak, they are vulnerable to jamming. This paper implements a vector-tracking loop (VTL)-based global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver algorithm as an anti-jamming technique and compares the performance of VTL-based receivers with that of scalar-tracking loop (STL) that is used in general GNSS receivers at various jamming environments and a vehicle's dynamics. The simulation results shows that VTL is more robust against jamming than STL in all operating environments.

This paper presents a multi-frequency and multi-constellation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal generator that simulates intermediate frequency level digital signal samples for testing GNSS receivers. GNSS signal generators are ideally suited for testing the performance of GNSS receivers and algorithms under development in the laboratory for specific user locations and environments. The proposed GNSS signal generator features a fully-reconfigurable structure with the ability to adjust signal parameters, which is beneficial to generate desired signal characteristics for multiple scenarios including multi-constellation and frequencies. Successful signal acquisition, tracking, and navigation are demonstrated on a verified Software Defined Radio (SDR) in this study. This work has implications for future studies and advances the research and development of new GNSS signals.

In urban areas, signals can be blocked and reflected by buildings, reducing the reliability of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). To address this, the zonotope shadow matching (ZSM) algorithm has been proposed to estimate the set-valued receiver position by calculating the GNSS shadow based on the zonotope. However, the existing study only analyzed the performance of ZSM in dense urban areas where GNSS shadows occur frequently, and the performance analysis in various urban environments was insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we analyzed the performance of the ZSM algorithm in four urban environments with different characteristics. The results showed that the receiver position estimation performance of ZSM was relatively poor in environments where buildings were not densely populated, and the performance of ZSM was shown to be effective in urban environments with narrow roads and tall buildings.

위성항법 보정 시스템은 형태에 따라 지역보정 시스템과 광역 보정 시스템으로 나뉜다. 광역보정 시스템은 지역 보정시스템에 비해 시스템 구조가 복잡하며, 방송 메시지의 종류와 양이 많다. 또한 제한된 전송속도로 인해 사용자의 정확성과 무결성을 유지하기 위해서는 효율적인 메시지 스케쥴링이 필요하다. 현재 광역보정시스템에서는 30여 가지의 메시지가 방송되며 메시지 타입에 따라 업데이트 주기가 다르다. 본 논문에서는 메시지 스케쥴링 알고리듬을 적용하고 시뮬레이션을 통하여 성능을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 모든 메시지 타입에서 최대 업데이트 주기 요구 조건을 만족시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.
