Abstract
Accurate target coordinate is very important in military operations especially field artillery's ground-to-ground attack and air-force's air-to-ground attack. DOS(or TAS) is used to acquire target coordinates from long distance. DOS is comprised of LRF and goniometer. LRF measures distance between DOS and target. Goniometer is comprised of azimuth and vertical angular sensors, DMC and internal GPS receiver. DOS must set the position and orientation(finding grid north) before measurement step(target coordinate acquisition). To improve accuracy of target coordinate, VRS RTK and reference point method are proposed in DOS setup step. VRS RTK provides accurate location coordinate with small deviations, providing high accuracy and precision in positioning and orientation. As a result, horizontal coordinate(easting and northing) accuracy is improved from 2.68 mil(C.L. = 0.95) mil to 0.58 mil(C.L. = 0.95).
