This paper is to develop the position error equations including the attitude errors, the errors of nadir and ship's heading, and the errors of ship's position in the free-gyro positioning and directional system. In doing so, the determination of ship's position by two free gyro vectors was discussed and the algorithmic design of the free-gyro positioning and directional system was introduced briefly. Next, the errors of transformation matrices of the gyro and body frames, i.e. attitude errors, were examined and the attitude equations were also derived. The perturbations of the errors of the nadir angle including ship's heading were investigated in each stage from the sensor of rate of motion of the spin axis to the nadir angle obtained. Finally, the perturbation error equations of ship's position used the nadir angles were derived in the form of a linear error model and the concept of FDOP was also suggested by using covariance of position error.

A technology of ultrasonic biotelemetry for tracking fish behavior is investigated. The ultrasonic biotelemetry system is constituted by a transmitter and a receiving system. Because a pinger was mainly used for the transmitter, the capability for pinger to possess was investigated and the efficient usage for pinger was examined. A source pressure level and a frequency were synthetically examined so that pinger could realize small size, a light weight, and a long life time. The receiving system is divided roughly into directional hydrophone systems and acoustic positioning systems by the receiving method. The directional hydrophone system is divided into single beam and multiple beam with the number of hydrophone, and the acoustic positioning systems is divided into LBL (Long Base Line), SBL (Short Base Line), and SSBL (Super Short Base Line) on the basis of base line. The present situation, the merits and demerits, and the principle of each receiving method were investigated in detail, and the efficient usage for each receiving method were examined.

A hybrid navigation system is implemented to apply for a mobile robot. The hybrid navigation system consists of an inertial navigation system and a global positioning system. The inertial navigation system quickly calculates the position and the attitude of the robot by integrating directional accelerations, angular speed, and heading angle from a strap-down inertial measurement unit, but the results are available for a short time since it tends to diverge quickly. Global positioning system delivers position, heading angle, and traveling speed stably, but it has large deviation with slow update. Therefore, a hybrid navigation system uses the result from an inertial navigation system and corrects the result with the help of the global positioning system where an indirect feedback Kalman filter is used. We implement and confirm the performance of the hybrid navigation system through driving a car attaching it.

When an incoming Global Positioning System (GPS) signal is acquired, pull-in search performs a finer search of the Doppler frequency of the incoming signal so that phase lock loop can be quickly stabilized and the receiver can produce an accurate pseudo-range measurement. However, increasing the accuracy of the Doppler frequency estimation often involves a higher computational cost for weaker GPS signals, which delays the position fix. In this paper, we show that the Doppler frequency detectable by a long coherent auto-correlation can be accurately estimated using a complex-weighted sum of consecutive short coherent auto-correlation outputs with a different Doppler frequency hypothesis, and by exploiting this we propose a noise resistant, low-cost and highly accurate Doppler frequency and phase estimation technique based on a reverse directional application of the finite rate of innovation (FRI) technique. We provide a performance and computational complexity analysis to show the feasibility of the proposed technique and compare the performance to conventional techniques using numerous Monte Carlo simulations.

COsmicheskaya Sisteyama Poiska Avariynich Sudov Search and Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking (COSPAS-SARSAT) is an international communication support program to perform search and rescue (SAR) operations in emergency situations by using satellite signals relayed from a beacon. The legacy COSPAS-SARSAT was originally composed of low altitude and geostationary Earth orbit satellites; thus, a limited number of directional dish antennas was sufficient to cover the limited number of visible satellites at the local user terminal. However, the second generation COSPAS-SARSAT newly added the medium Earth orbit satellites, e.g., Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) to the existing system, so that the number of visible satellites increase dramatically, and the system upgrade to cover all the visible satellites is foreseen. The additional use of planned Korea Positioning System (KPS) to existing GNSS is envisaged to provide a better performance of their SAR service. This paper presents the benefits of the additional use of KPS together with the phased array antennas at the local user terminal of the COSPAS-SARSAT. This is to effectively response to the increase of the number of visible satellites. Numerical simulation is included to evaluate the performance improvement of COSPAS-SARSAT in terms of the number of visible satellites, geometry between satellites and user, and position estimation accuracy.

근래의 위치 측위 방법으로 GPS(Global Positioning System) 위성정보를 활용하는 전파항법 방식을 많이 사용하고 있다. GPS 활용범위가 넓어지고 다양한 측위 정보를 기반으로 하는 분야가 생기면서 보다 높은 정확도를 얻기 위한 새로운 방법들이 요구되고 있다. 자율주행차의 경우 IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit)를 사용한 항법 시스템인 INS(Inertial Navigation System)와 차량 내부 센서를 이용한 DR(Dead Reckoning) 알고리즘을 사용하여 GPS의 정확도 저하나 음영지역에서의 위치 측정방법으로 사용하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 측위 방법은 대형화되는 빌딩 지역, 터널, 지하 주차장 등 다양한 음영지역과 시간이 지남에 따라 오차가 계속 증가하는 누적 기반 위치추정 방법의 한계로 인해 많은 문제 요소가 있다. 본 논문은 GPS 음영지역에서 차량의 위치 측위를 위해, 대중적 무선 통신인 WLAN을 이용한 Fingerprint 기법을 4개의 Anchor 형태로 AP(Access Point)와 지향성 안테나를 위치하여 넓은 지하 주차공간에서 효율적인 측위 방법을 제시하고 시간이 지남에 따라 주차된 차량이 이동하는 환경에서도 변화가 없는 위치 측위 결과를 입증하였다.

Global Positioning System (GPS)는 정확한 위치추정을 위해 최소 네 개의 위성들을 필요로 한다. 한 개의 일반적인 역확산기(despreader)는 한 개의 GPS 신호를 위해 동작하므로, 다수개의 GPS 신호들을 분리하기 위해서는 일반적으로 다수개의 역확산기들이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 최근에 제안된 일반적인 역확산기와 널(null) 역확산기, 다중단계 CM (constant modulus) 어레이로 구성된 GPS 수신기의 다수개의 GPS 신호들을 검출하기 위한 확장에 대해 소개를 하고, 이에 따른 신호-대-간섭-및-잡음 비(SINR)에 대한 수학적인 표현을 제시한다. 확대된 시스템은 방향성을 가지는 간섭을 제거하기 위해 GPS 신호들에 대한 정확한 도착각(DOA, direction of arrival)을 필요로 하지 않는다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 다수개의 GPS 신호들에 대한 제안된 시스템의 간섭제거 성능을 보일 것이다.

A precision displacement measuring system is proposed, which can detect the 3-DOF translational motions of precision positioning devices. The optical system, which is composed of two diode-laser sources and two quadratic PSDs, is adapted to detect the position of the spherical reflector usually mounted on the platform of positioning devices. Each of the laser beams from diode-laser sources is reflected at the highly reflective surface of the sphere; hence, the 3-dimensional position of the sphere causes the directional change of the reflected beams, which is detected by the PSDs. In this paper, we define the relationships between the output values of the two PSDs and the 3-DOF translational motions of the sphere. Based on a deduced measurement model, we perform measurement simulation and evaluate the performance of the proposed measurement system: linearity, sensitivity, measuring range, and measurement error. The results show that the proposed measuring method is very useful for the measurement of the precision displacement of 3-DOF micro motions.

본 논문은 정밀한 전파항법시스템 구현을 위해 안테나의 방향별 군지연 차이가 시스템에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석은 안테나 시뮬레이션과 시험을 통해서 수행 하였고, 시험은 무반향 챔버에서 진행 하였다. 안테나의 방향별 군지연은 위상(phase)을 기반으로 분석 하였으며, 측정 분석 결과 안테나의 방향별로 최대 약 7.7 ns까지 군지연 차이가 발생했다. 분석된 군지연 차이를 거리로 환산하면 약 2.31 m이며, 이를 실제 TOA (time of arrival)기반의 전파항법시스템에서 시험 하였다. 시험 결과 2.1 m의 거리 변화를 확인 하였으며, 이는 시뮬레이션과 챔버 시험 분석 값과 유사한 수치이다.
