A Study on Availability of Marine DGPS in Land

해상용 DGPS의 육상 활용에 관한 연구

The DGPS is used to improve the accuracy of the GPS by determining the positioning error data known locatio and subsequently transmitting the determined error, or corrective factors, to users of the GPS operating in the same geographical area. The accuracy of the DGPS available to real0time users is published in the Federal Radio-Navigation Plan to be better than 10 meters, although users often experience accuracies of better than 3 meters. USA recently decided to expand the marine DGPS service for land applications and initiated the Nationwide DGPS chain. Korea is processing for improving the marine DGPS. We have not achieved Full Operational Capability. But after announcing FOC, we have to begin expansion of DGPS into land. This paper investigate the availability of marine DGPS in land. The results will provide a basic guide for estimation of a propagation loss of the marine DGPS frequency in land.
