Abstract

Recently, Hybrid Navigation Systems combining Omega, NNSS, Loran C and Dead reckoning etc. served to give us highly accurate ship's position, and a number of ships are equipped with these navigation systems. In order to evaluate for the accuracy of this navigation system observations of Loran C, 5970 and 9970 chains and Radar at the same time were made on board m.s Jeonbuk 401 and 403 training ships of Gunsan Fisheries Collage at nine stations in the yellow sea from July, 1982 to June, 1983, and then were done by the Hybrid Navigation System combining Dead reckoning and Loran C at the same areas. The authors investigated the accuracy of the Hybrid Navigation System based on measurements of the relative positional error which is defined as the difference between the position fixed by this system or the Loran C system, and the one by the Radar. The obtained results are as follows; 1. The mean standard deviation of the time difference of Loran C were about 0.21$\mu$s in 9970 chain and about 0.06$\mu$s in 5970 chain, and the fluctuation of the time difference of Loran C in 5970 chain was smaller than that in 9970 chain. 2. The positional error between two positions by Radar and the Hybrid Navigation System in 9970 chain was about 0.4 miles, and between two positions by Radar and Loran C was about 0.51 miles. The Hybrid Navigation System was therefore more accurate than Loran C System. 3. The positional error between two positions by Radar and Hybrid Navigation System in 5970 chain was about 0.4 miles, and between two positions by Radar and computer simulation of Loran C was about 0.98 miles. Consequently, Hybrid Navigation System was more accurate than computer simulation of Loran C system.

추측항법과 Loran C 항법을 결합한 Hybrid 항법의 정도를 평가하기 위하여, 군산수산전문대학 실습선 전북 401, 403 호에 설치되어 있는 Hybrid항법장치를 이용하여 1982년 7월부터 1983년 6월 사이에 한국서해안 해역에서 실선관측을 행하여 그 측위의 정도를 Radar 위치와 비교.검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 9970, 5970 Chain의 Loran C 시간차의 표준편차는 각각 약 0.21$\mu$s, 약 0.06$\mu$s로 5970 Chain의 시간차 변동이 9970 Chain보다 적었다. 2. Hybrid위치와 Loran C 위치는 Radar 위치와의 편위거리가 각각 약 0.4 mile, 약 0.51 mile로서 Hybrid 항법이 Loran C 항법보다 정도가 더 높았다. 3. Hybrid 위치와 Loran C의 계산기 simulation 위치는 Radar 위치와의 위치거리가 각각 0.4 mille, dir 0.98 mile로 Hybrid 항법이 Loran C의 계산기 simulation 위치보다 정도가 더 높았으며, 추측위치의 미소한 변동에 대한 Loran C의 변위량을 보정하면 Loran C의 계산기 simulation 위치의 정도도 더 높일 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
