본 논문에서는 센서 네트워크를 이용하여 로봇 자신의 위치를 인식할 수 있는 위치인식 시스템을 제안하였다. 그리고 센서 네트워크에서 얻은 정보와 사용자의 운행 정보를 이용하여 사용자의 선호도 및 성향과 주변의 환경 상태를 판단하여 사용자에게 적합한 경로를 추천하는 지능형 네비게이션 시스템을 제안하였다. 이 시스템은 소프트 컴퓨팅 기법을 사용하여 인간의 선호도와 성향을 학습 및 추론하였다. 그리고 사용자와 모바일 로봇을 중계자 역할을 담당하고 휴대가 가능한 지능형 보조 모듈(IAM)을 정의하고 제안하였다. 마지막으로 제안한 알고리즘을 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하였다.

As intelligent autonomous driving vehicle development has become a big topic around the world, accurate reference dynamics estimation has been more important than before. Current systems generally use speed and heading information sensed from a distant point as a vehicle reference dynamic, however, the dynamics between different points are not same especially during rotating motions. In order to estimate properly estimate the reference dynamics from the information such as velocity and heading sensed at a point distant from the reference point such as center of gravity, this study proposes estimating reference dynamics from any location in the vehicle by combining the Bicycle and Ackermann models. A test system was constructed by implementing multiple GNSS/INS equipment on an Robot Operating System (ROS) and an actual car. Angle and speed errors of 10° and 0.2 m/s have been reduced to 0.2° and 0.06 m/s after applying the suggested method.

유비쿼터스 사회는 초고속 인터넷, 모바일, 디지털 컨버전스 단계를 거치면서 점차 가시화 되고 있다. 현재 일상적인 커뮤티케이션뿐만 아니라 경제 및 산업 분야로 다양하게 확산되고 있다. 특히 RFID와 내비게이션은 국내외적으로 이슈화되고 있으며 점점 발전하고 경제적 산업적으로 국가 경쟁력 향상에 도움을 줄 것으로 예상된다. 하지만 이러한 RFID와 내비게이션의 활용 범위를 살펴보면 가장 일반적인 경우에 치중되었다. 본 논문에서는 RFID와 내비게이션을 사용하여 개별화된 특성을 반영하고 그것을 사용하는 사용자들의 특성을 고려하여 변화하는 환경에 적응하기 쉬운 시스템을 제안하고자 한다. 그리고 특정환경에서 어떠한 정보가 이에 활용될 수 있는지를 정의하고, 여러 가지 정보를 이용하여 지능형 경로 안내 시스템을 만들기 위해 퍼지 로직과 TSP를 적용한다.

최근 초고속 인터넷, 모바일, 디지털 컨버전스 단계를 거치면서 유비쿼더스(Ubiquitous) 사회는 점차 가시화 되고 있다. 현재 일상적인 통신뿐만 아니라 경제 및 산업 분야로 다양하게 확산되고 있다. 특히 RFID와 네비게이션(Navigation) 시스템은 국내 외적으로 많은 분야에 사용되고 있으며 점점 발전하고 경제적 산업적으로 국가 경쟁력 향상에 도움을 줄 것이다. 하지만 이러한 RFID와 네비게이션의 활용 범위를 살펴보면 가장 일반적인 경우에 치중되어있다. 본 논문에서는 RFID와 네비게이션을 사용하여 개별화된 특성과 환경 상태 정보를 반영하고 그것을 사용하는 사용자들의 특성을 고려하여 변화하는 환경에 적응하기 쉬운 시스템을 제안하고 특정 환경에서 어떠한 정보가 이에 활용될 수 있는지를 정의한다. 또한 여러가지 정보를 이용하여 지능형 경로 탐색 및 안내 시스템을 위해 퍼지 로직과 TSP 개념을 적용한다.

An autonomous unmanned underwater vehicle is a type of marine self-propelled robot that executes some specific mission and returns to base on completion of the task. In order to successfully execute the requested operations, the vehicle must be guided by an effective navigation algorithm that enables it to avoid obstacles and follow the best path. Architectures and principles for intelligent dynamic systems are being developed, not only in the underwater arena but also in related areas where the work does not fully justify the name. The problem of increasing the capacity of systems management is highly relevant based on the development of new methods for dynamic analysis, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, and adaptation. Among the large variety of navigation methods that presently exist, the dynamic window approach is worth noting. It was originally presented by Fox et al. and has been implemented in indoor office robots. In this paper, the dynamic window approach is applied to the marine world by developing and extending it to manipulate vehicles in 3D marine environments. This algorithm is provided to enable efficient avoidance of obstacles and attainment of targets. Experiments conducted using the algorithm in MATLAB indicate that it is an effective obstacle avoidance approach for marine vehicles.

In a coastal area, all of the vessels are always exposed to the potential risk, taking into the maritime accident statistics account over the last decades. To manage vessels underway safety, the characteristics of ship movements in a fairway should be recognized by VTS system or VTS operators. The IMO has already mandated the shipboard carriage of AIS since 2004, as stated in SOLAS Chapter V Regulation 19. As a result, the static and dynamic information of AIS data has been collected for vessel traffic management in the coastal areas and used for VTS. This research proposes a simple algorithm of recognizing potentially risky ships by observing their trajectories on the fairway. The static and dynamic information of AIS data are collected and the curvature for the ship trajectory is surveyed. The proposed algorithm finds out the irregularity of ship movement. The algorithm effectively monitors the change of navigation pattern from the curvature analysis of ship trajectory. Our method improves VTS functions in an intelligent way by analyzing the navigation pattern of vessels underway.

In a situation where there are multiple diverse datasets, it is essential to have an efficient method to provide users with the datasets they require. To address this suggestion, necessary datasets should be selected on the basis of the relationships between the datasets. In particular, in order to discover the necessary datasets for disaster resolution, we need to consider the disaster resolution stage. In this paper, in order to provide the necessary datasets for each stage of disaster resolution, we constructed a disaster type and disaster management process ontology and designed a method to determine the necessary datasets for each disaster type and disaster management process step. In addition, we introduce a method to determine relationships between datasets necessary for disaster response. We propose a method for discovering datasets based on minimal relationships such as "isA," "sameAs," and "subclassOf." To discover suitable datasets, we designed a knowledge exploration model and collected 651 disaster-related datasets for improving our method. These datasets were categorized by disaster type from the perspective of disaster management. Categorizing actual datasets into disaster types and disaster management types allows a single dataset to be classified as multiple types in both categories. We built a knowledge exploration model on the basis of disaster examples to ensure the configuration of our model.

The Centimeter Level Augmentation Service (CLAS) is the Precise Point Positioning (PPP) - Real Time Kinematic (RTK) correction service utilizing the Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) L6 (1278.65 MHz) signal to broadcast the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) error corrections. Compact State-Space Representation (CSSR) corrections for mitigating GNSS measurement error sources such as satellite orbit, clock, code and phase biases, tropospheric error, ionospheric error are estimated from the ground segment of QZSS CLAS using the code and carrier-phase measurements collected in the Japan's GNSS Earth Observation Network (GEONET). Since the CLAS service begun on November 1, 2018, users with dedicated receivers can perform cm-level precise positioning using CSSR corrections. In this paper, CLAS-based VRS-RTK performance evaluation was performed using Global Positioning System (GPS) observables collected from the refence station, TSK2, located in Japan. As a result of performing GPS-only RTK positioning using the open-source software CLASLIB and RTKLIB, it took about 15 minutes to resolve the carrier-phase ambiguities, and the RTK fix rate was only about 41%. Also, the Root Mean Squares (RMS) values of position errors (fixed only) are about 4cm horizontally and 7 cm vertically.

For the past three decades, ship-to-ship collision accidents have steadily increased on the coast of South Korea by about 20% annually. Marine accidents have become more likely and more devastating in areas with increasing marine traffic and rising numbers of high-speed ships. Over 30% of the marine accidents in South Korea are concentrated in spring, since Korea's coast is often covered in dense fog at this time of the year. Fog is generated when a large temperature range exists within a day, and this daily temperature range has increased due to abnormal weather conditions. This research proposed a system for transmitting a navigator's intention utilizing electronic methods. A navigator's intention was expressed on the electronic navigation chart for easier understanding of the surrounding situation, and the effectiveness of the system was verified through practical tests.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to extract valid planar regions from stereo images for visual navigation of mobile robots. The algorithm is based on the difference image between the stereo images obtained by applying Homography matrix between stereo cameras. Illegal planar regions are filtered out by the use of labeling of the difference images and filtering of invalid blobs using the size of each blob. Also, illegal large planar regions such as walls are removed by adopting a weighted low-pass filtering of the difference image using the past difference images. The algorithms are experimented successfully by the use of stereo camera system built in a mobile robot and a PC-based real-time vision system.
