Existing Differential GPS (DGPS) pseudorange correction (PRC) generation techniques based on a virtual reference station cannot effectively assign a weighting factor if the baseline distance between a user and a reference station is not long enough. In this study, a virtual reference station DGPS PRC generation technique was developed based on an enhanced inverse distance weighting method using an exponential function that can maximize a small baseline distance difference due to the dense arrangement of DGPS reference stations in South Korea, and its positioning performance was validated. For the performance verification, the performance of the model developed in this study (EIDW) was compared with those of typical inverse distance weighting (IDW), first- and second-order multiple linear regression analyses (Planar 1 and 2), the model of Abousalem (1996) (Ab_EXP), and the model of Kim (2013) (Kim_EXP). The model developed in the present study had a horizontal accuracy of 53 cm, and the positioning based on the second-order multiple linear regression analysis that showed the highest positioning accuracy among the existing models had a horizontal accuracy of 51 cm, indicating that they have similar levels of performance. Also, when positioning was performed using five reference stations, the horizontal accuracy of the developed model improved by 8 ~ 42% compared to those of the existing models. In particular, the bias was improved by up to 27 cm.

본 연구에서는 GPS/GLONASS/BDS 통합 측위를 수행하기 위해 고려해야 할 사항을 소개하였으며, 저가형 수신기를 통해 개활지 환경과 난수신 환경에서의 통합 측위의 정확도를 분석하였다. 개활지 환경에서는 통합 측위 시 수평 RMSE가 1.2m로 단일 시스템만을 이용한 측위에 비해 수평 정확도가 17-55%만큼 향상되었으며 편향이 개선되어 높은 측위 성능을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 난수신 환경에서의 가시 위성 개수를 파악한 결과 단일 시스템을 이용하여 측위를 할 때에는 가시 위성의 개수가 4개 미만이 되어 측위가 되지 않는 경우가 발생했으나, 통합 측위를 할 때에는 가시 위성 개수가 항상 4개 이상이 되어 측위가 되지 않는 경우가 발생하지 않았다. 난수신 환경에서 통합 측위의 수평 RMSE는 6.4m로 단일 시스템만을 이용하여 측위를 수행했을 때보다 8-47%만큼 수평 정확도가 향상되는 것을 확인하였다.

Indoor positioning is considered an enabler for a variety of applications, the demand for an indoor positioning service has also been accelerated. That is because that people spend most of their time indoor environment. Meanwhile, the smartphone integrated powerful camera is an efficient platform for navigation and positioning. However, for high accuracy indoor positioning by using a smartphone, there are two constraints that includes: (1) limited computational and memory resources of smartphone; (2) users' moving in large buildings. To address those issues, this paper uses the TC-OFDM for calculating the coarse positioning information includes horizontal and altitude information for assisting smartphone camera-based positioning. Moreover, a unified representation model of image features under variety of scenarios whose name is FAST-SURF is established for computing the fine location. Finally, an optimization marginalized particle filter is proposed for fusing the positioning information from TC-OFDM and images. The experimental result shows that the wide location detection accuracy is 0.823 m (1σ) at horizontal and 0.5 m at vertical. Comparing to the WiFi-based and ibeacon-based positioning methods, our method is powerful while being easy to be deployed and optimized.

Fields of high-precision positioning applications are growing fast across the mass market worldwide. Accordingly, the industry is focusing on developing methods of applying State-Space Representation (SSR) corrections on low-cost GNSS receivers. Among SSR correction types, this paper analyzes Safe Position Augmentation for Real Time Navigation (SPARTN) messages being offered by the SAfe and Precise CORrection DAta (SAPCORDA) company and validates positioning algorithms based on them. The first part of this paper introduces the SPARTN format in detail. Then, procedures on how to apply Basic-Precision Atmosphere Correction (BPAC) and High-Precision Atmosphere Correction (HPAC) messages are described. BPAC and HPAC messages are used for correcting satellite clock errors, satellite orbit errors, satellite signal biases and also ionospheric and tropospheric delays. Accuracies of positioning algorithms utilizing SPARTN messages were validated with two types of positioning strategies: Code-PPP using GPS pseudorange measurements and PPP-RTK including carrier phase measurements. In these performance checkups, only single-frequency measurements have been used and integer ambiguities were estimated as float numbers instead of fixed integers. The result shows that, with BPAC and HPAC corrections, the horizontal accuracy is 46% and 63% higher, respectively, compared to that obtained without application of SPARTN corrections. Also, the average horizontal and vertical RMSE values with HPAC are 17 cm and 27 cm, respectively.

In order to investigate the fish behavior in the water tank, the three dimensional positioning system with two CCD cameras was designed. The positioning system was tested at the vertical circulation water channel with observational part of 1,500L$\times$1,500W$\times$500H mm and the circular water tank with 2,050ø sub(1)$\times$1,850ø sub(2)$\times$400H mm. The observational error of vertical direction was larger than that of horizontal direction, and the observational error became enlarged in all directions according to the increase of depth and distance from the visual axis. The maximum observational errors of horizontal and vertical directions at the circulation channel ranged from -1.7 cm to 1.8 cm (2.4%) and zero to 2.1 cm (4.2%), respectively. But the errors of horizontal and vertical directions at the circular tank ranged from -1.3 cm to 1.3 cm (1.3%) and zero to 1.3 cm (3.3%), respectively.

최근에 GPS가 차량항법시스템으로 큰 역할을 해왔지만, 가로수와 고층빌딩 등이 산재한 도심지에서는 가시위성의 수의 제한으로 연속적으로 정확하게 차량의 동적위치를 결정할 수 없는 실정이다. 이런 GPS의 단점을 보완하기 위해 1996년 완전히 가동된 러시아의 위성항법시스템인 GLONASS를 도입하여 GPS의 보조항법시스템으로 사용하고자 하는 연구가 활발하다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 Real-time code differential positioning 기법으로 차량의 동적위치를 결정하여, Real-time DGG(DGPS/DGLONASS)가 차분측위해의 획득율과 수평위치 정밀도저하율(HDOP ; Horizontal Dilution of Precision)에서 Real-time DGPS보다 훨씬 우수한 값을 얻었으며, 이를 통해 GPS와 GLONASS의 결합이 정확한 차량의 동적위치결정에 기여하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

eLoran refers to a terrestrial navigation system using high-power low-frequency signals. Thus, it can be regarded as a positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) system to back up a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) or an alternative to GNSS. South Korea is vulnerable to interference such as GNSS jamming in particular. Therefore, South Korea has made an effort to develop an independent navigation system through eLoran system. More particularly, an eLoran testbed has been developed to be used in the northwest sea area and research on applicability of eLoran in South Korea has been underway. The present study analyzes expected performance of eLoran according to locations of newly built eLoran transmitting stations as part of the eLoran testbed research. The performance of eLoran is analyzed in terms of horizontal position accuracy, and horizontal dilution of precision (HDOP) information was used since it affects accuracy significantly. The target service areas of the eLoran testbed are Incheon and Pyeongtaek Ports, and the required target performance is positioning accuracy of 20 m position within 30 km coverage of the target service area.

Kalman filtering (KF) is hard to be applied to the SINS (Strap-down Inertial Navigation System)/RDSS (Radio Determination Satellite Service) integrated navigation system directly because the time delay of RDSS positioning in active mode is random. BP (Back-Propagation) Neuron computing as a powerful technology of Artificial Neural Network (ANN), is appropriate to solve nonlinear problems such as the random time delay of RDSS without prior knowledge about the mathematical process involved. The new algorithm betakes a BP neural network (BPNN) and velocity feedback to aid KF in order to overcome the time delay of RDSS positioning. Once the BP neural network was trained and converged, the new approach will work well for SINS/RDSS integrated navigation. Dynamic vehicle experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of the system. The experiment results demonstrate that the horizontal positioning accuracy of the new approach is 40.62 m (1 ${\sigma}$), which is better than velocity-feedback-based KF. The experimental results also show that the horizontal positioning error of the navigation system is almost linear to the positioning interval of RDSS within 5 minutes. The approach and its anti-jamming analysis will be helpful to the applications of SINS/RDSS integrated systems.
