This paper presents a new robot calibration algorithm with joint stiffness parameters for the enhanced positioning accuracy of industrial robot manipulators. This work is towards on-going development of an industrial robot calibration software which is able to identify both the kinematic and non-kinematic robot parameters. In this paper, the conventional kinematic calibration and its important considerations are briefly described first. Then, a new robot calibration algorithm which simultaneously identifies both the kinematic and joint stiffness parameters is presented and explained through a computer simulation with a 2 DOF manipulator. Finally, the developed algorithm is implemented to Hyundai HX165 robot and its resulting improvement of the positioning accuracy is addressed.

In October 2019, the European Galileo navigation system operates a total of 24 satellites, two of them are in the testing phase. There are enough satellites in operation to enable precise point positioning (PPP) using Galileo signals. The number of visible satellites for Galileo in South Korea is investigated. In addition, to assess the latest performance of the Galileo kinematic PPP, data received at DAEJ reference station from October 1 to October 7, 2019, are analyzed. Galileo kinematic PPP presents some results in two categories, single-frequency PPP (SPPP) and dual-frequency PPP (DPPP). The positioning accuracy for Galileo kinematic SPPP solutions is less than 1 m root mean square (RMS) in all direction components. The Galileo kinematic DPPP achieves the positioning accuracy with an RMS value of less than 7 cm in all direction components. The results show that the latest performance of Galileo kinematic PPP at DAEJ station in South Korea is still relatively poor compared to GPS kinematic PPP. However, the residuals of Galileo code measurements are smaller than those of GPS code measurements.

Currently, fast and accurate long baseline positioning in kinematic mode is a challenging topic, but positional accuracy can be improved with the help of the network-derived external ionospheric corrections. To provide not only ionospheric corrections, but also their variances, satellite-by-satellite interpolation for the ionospheric delays is performed using the least-squares collocation (LSC) method. Satellite-by-satellite interpolation has the advantage in that the vertical projection used in single-layer ionospheric model is not required. Also, more reliable user positioning and the corresponding accuracy assessment can be obtained by providing not only external ionospheric corrections but also their variances. The rover positioning with and without the external ionospheric delays in both rapid-static and kinematic mode was performed and analyzed. The numerical results indicate that the improvement in the positioning quality is achieved using the proposed method. With the TAMDEF network in Antarctica, 18 % improvement in mean time-to-fix in kinematic mode was achieved.

Kinematic global positioning system precise point positioning (GPS PPP) technology is widely used to the several area such as monitoring of crustal movement and precise orbit determination (POD) using the dual-frequency GPS observations. In this study we developed a kinematic PPP technology and applied 3-pass (forward/backward/forward) filter for the stabilization of the initial state of the parameters to be estimated. For verification of results, we obtained GPS data sets from six international GPS reference stations (ALGO, AMC2, BJFS, GRAZ, IENG and TSKB) and processed in daily basis by using the developed software. As a result, the mean position errors by kinematic PPP showed 0.51 cm in the east-west direction, 0.31 cm in the north-south direction and 1.02 cm in the up-down direction. The root mean square values produced from them were 1.59 cm for the east-west component, 1.26 cm for the south-west component and 2.95 cm for the up-down component.

Based on the possibility theory and the fuzzy set, the Maximum Possibility Estimation method and its applications in kinematic GPS positioning are presented in this paper. Firstly, the principle and the optimal criterion of the Maximum Possibility Estimation method are explained. Secondly, the kinematic GPS positioning model of single epoch single frequency with baseline length constraint is developed. Then, the authors introduce the artificial immune algorithm and use this algorithm to search the global optimum of the Maximum Possibility Estimation model. The results of some examples show that the method is efficient for kinematic GPS positioning.

다수의 고정수신기를 이용하여 이동수신기의 위치를 정확히 측정하고자 하는 필요성은 계속적으로 대두되고 있었으나, 현재 사용되고 있는 대부분의 상용 소프트웨어에서는 단일기선에 대한 GPS 결과만을 제공하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 다수의 단일기선 결과를 이용하여 네트워크를 구성함으로써 이동수신기의 위치측정 정확도를 향상시키기 위한 방안을 연구하였다. 이를 위해 기존의 측지 망 조정 이론을 도입하여 이동수신기의 위치결정 분야에 적용함으로써 위치정확도 향상 뿐만 아니라 전체적인 네트워크의 안정에도 기여할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 측지망의 계수부족(Rank-deficiency)을 제거하기 위해서 하나의 고정수신기의 위치를 고정시키는 방법(RLESS), 이동수신기의 바이어스(Bias)를 최소화하는 방법(BLIMPBE), 그리고 고정수신기의 위치에 확률적 제약 조건을 주는 방법(SCLESS)에 대해서 비교 분석하였다. 네트워크 기반의 위치결정을 통해서 3차원 평균제곱근오차(RMSE)는 최대 3.5cm에서 2.1cm 수준으로 향상되었고, 기준점의 위치정확도에 따라 BLIMPBE 및 SCLESS 방법을 적절히 적용하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper describes kinematic analysis of a 6-degrees-of-freedom (DOF) ultra-precision positioning stage based on a flexure hinge. The stage is designed for processes which require ultra-precision and high load capacities, e.g. wafer-level precision bonding/assembly. During the initial design process, inverse and forward kinematic analyses were performed to actuate the precision positioning stage and to calculate workspace. A two-step procedure was used for inverse kinematic analysis. The first step involved calculating the amount of actuation of the horizontal actuation units. The second step involved calculating the amount of actuation of the vertical actuation unit, given the the results of the first step, by including a lever hinge mechanism adopted for motion amplification. Forward kinematic analysis was performed by defining six distance relationships between hinge positions for in-plane and out-of-plane motion. Finally, the result of a circular path actuation test with respect to the x-y, y-z, and x-z planes is presented.

이동매핑시스템은 GPS 및 수치영상측정기술의 발달에 의하여 실시간으로 공간데이터를 신속하게 획득할 수 있는 시스템이다. GPS에 의한 동적 측위는 이러한 이동매핑시스템을 가능하게 한 핵심기술이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이동 차량에 탑재된 GPS에 의한 동적 위치측정의 정확도 및 그 효율성을 분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 노선을 선정한 다음 이동차량에 GPS를 탑재하고 동적 GPS 측량을 실시하였다. 연구결과 차량에 탑재된 GPS에 의한 동적측위는 상당한 정밀도를 가지고 효율적으로 공간 위치를 실시간으로 측정할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 도심지 등에서의 신호단절 보완 및 정확한 위치측정을 위해서는 관성항법시스템이 결합되어야 할 것이다.

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.

Precise Point Positioning (PPP) has been widely used in navigation and orbit determination applications as we can obtain precise Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite orbit and clock products. Kinematic PPP, which is based on the GPS measurements only from the spaceborne GPS receiver, has some advantages for a simple precise orbit determination (POD). In this study, we developed kinematic PPP technique to estimate the orbits of GRACE-A satellite. The comparison of the mean position between the JPL's orbit product and our results showed the orbit differences 0.18 cm, 0.54 cm, and 0.98 cm in the Radial, in Along-track, and Cross-track direction respectively. In addition, we obtained the root mean square (rms) values of 4.06 cm, 3.90 cm, and 3.23 cm in the satellite coordinate components relative to the known coordinates.
