Nowadays, the combined land navigation system using GPS(Global Positioning System) and DR(Deduced Reckoning), etc. has been used. Although GPS is popular with the land navigation system, this is not useful for the kinematic positioning of the vehicles in the urban canyon because of its few satellites. Thus, this study deals with the kinematic positioning of the vehicles with the combined GPS/GLONASS(GLObal Navigation Satellite System) to compliment the drawbacks of GPS. So the kinematic positioning of the vehicles can be performed constantly by the combined GPS/GLONASS based on the high acquisition rate of data with the help of GLONASS despite of many obstacles and few satellites tracked in the test sites. Consequently, the combined GPS/GLONASS can be applicable to the control of traffic flow and the effective management of read system.

상시 이용가능한 전천후, 범세계적인 정확한 항법을 개발하는 것이 항해자들의 숙원이었다. 이제 시스템의 보완의 문제가 국제적인 규모에 초점이 맞추어 진다면 현시점의 기술로도 이 숙원이 앞으로 10년 내에 이루어 질 가능성이 엿보인다. 범세계적인 전파항법은 그 정의상 수신지점이 아무리 멀리 떨어지고 고립되어 있다 하더라도 육·해·공 어디서나 아무런 전파간섭 없이 수신될 수 있는 것이어야 한다. 범세계적인 항법방식을 채택하는 데 있어서 중요하게 고려되는 사항은 간섭이 없는 주파수 스펙트럼의 이용과 전파항법의 송신사양의 발천이다. 국가안보를 위한 항해와 민간의 목적을 위한 항해 사이의 갈등과 국가간의 요구의 상이는 국가적 결정과 국제적 협력을 위한 의미있는 도전을 나타낸다. 송신국이 육지에 있는 장거리항법방식 2가지, 즉 Loran-C와 Omega는 현재 시행되고 있으며, 인공위성항법방식이 앞으로 실현될 가능성이 있는데, 지금이 바로 행동을 취할 때라고 제안한다. 본 논문은 Loran-C와 Omega 방식의 기술사양서 발행의 절실한 필요성과 이러한 범세계적인 전파항법의 송신에 요구되는 주파수, 스펙트럼의 정의의 필요성을 기술한다. 그리고 국제 전기통신협회의 후원하에 1979년 Genova에서 열린 World Administrative Radio Conference에 앞서서 주의를 요하는 특별한 기술적인 분야에 대해서 기술한다.

현재 운용중인 전 세계적인 위성항법시스템(GNSS : Global Navigation Satellite System)은 미국의 GPS(Global Positioning System)와 러시아의 GLONASS(Global Navigation Satellite System)가 있다. 전 세계적으로 주로 사용되는 시스템은 GPS이며, GLONASS는 러시아의 경제사정 악화로 인하여 지속적인 위성발사가 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 추가적으로 추진되고 있는 위성항법시스템은 유럽의 갈릴레오(Galileo), 중국의 북두(Beidou), 일본의 JRANS(Japanese Regional Advanced Navigation System) 그리고 2006년 5월에 구축 프로젝트가 승인된 인도의 IRNSS(Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System)가 있다. 보강시스템의 경우, 미국 FAA(Federal Aviation Administration)는 광역오차보정시스템(WAAS)을 Raytheon사와 개발하였으며, 현재 착륙용 근거리오차보정시스템(LAAS)을 Raytheon사 및 Honeywell사와 함께 정부/산업체 공동개발 사업(GIP; Government Industry Partnership)으로 진행 중에 있다. 유럽은 EGNOS(European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service)를 사용하고 있으며, 일본의 MSAT(MTSAT Satellite Based Augmentation System)와 인도의 GAGAN(GPS and GEO Augmented Navigation)은 추진 중이다. 이 글에서는 위성항법시스템과 위성항법 보강시스템의 현황을 살펴본다.

A Basic Plan for the Promotion of Space Development (hereinafter referred to as "basic plan"), which prescribes mid- and long-term policy objectives and basic direction-setting on space development every five years, is one of the matters to be deliberated by the National Space Committee. Confirmed February 2018 by the Committee, the 3rd Basic Plan has a unique matter, compared to the 2nd Basic Plan. It is to construct "Korean Positioning System(KPS)". Almost every country in the world including Korea has been relying on GPS. On the occasion of the shooting down of a Korean Air flight 007 by Soviet Russia, GPS Standard Positioning Service has been open to the world. Due to technical errors of GPS or conflict of interests between countries in international relations, however, the above Service can be interrupted at any time. Such cessation might bring extensive damage to the social, economic and security domains of every country. This is why some countries has been constructing an independent global or regional satellite navigation system: EU(Galileo), Russia(Glonass), India(NaVic), Japan(QZSS), and China(Beidou). So does South Korea. Once KPS is built, it is expected to make use of the system in various areas such as transportation, aviation, disaster, construction, defense, ocean, distribution, telecommunication, etc. For this, a pan-governmental governance is needed to be established. And this governance must be based on the law. Korea is richly experienced in developing and operating individually satellite itself, but it has little experience in the simultaneous development and operation of the satellites, ground, and users systems, such as KPS. Therefore we need to review overseas cases, in order to minimize trial and error. U.S. GPS is a classic example.

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has become an indispensable tool for providing precise position, velocity and time information for many applications like traditional surveying and navigation etc. However, Global Positioning System (GPS), which was developed and is maintained and operated by the U.S. Department of Defence (DoD), has monopolized the world industry and market, and hence there exists the situation that most of GNSS users absolutely depend upon the GPS. In order to overcome the monopoly, some countries, such as Russia, Japan and European Union (EU), have developed their own GNSSs, so-called GLONASS, JRANS and Galileo systems. Among them, the most prospective system in near future is EU's Galileo system scheduled to launch in 2008. This research has focused on the next generation GNSS system based on GPS and Gralileo system with developing a GNSS simulation software, named as GIMS2005, which generates and analyzes satellite constellation and measurements. Based on the software, a variety of simulation tests have been carried out to recognize limits of GPS-only system and potential benefits of integrated GPS/Galileo positioning. Geometry simulation results have showed that comparing with GPS-only case, the number qf visual satellites, Dilution of Precision (DOP) values, internal reliabilities and external reliabilities.

Globally, global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is being developed and operated in advanced countries. China's Beidou is developing rapidly, starting with global positioning system (GPS), which is the most representative system. In this paper, we analyze the visibility of Beidou satellite in Korea at present time to utilize rapidly changing Beidou. In this analysis, it is compared with GPS which is stable service. The results of the visibility analysis are based on the results of the mask angle (the low elevation satellite exclusion angle) and the result of the skyplot (a visual representation of the position of the satellite at the user location). Visibility analysis shows that the high elevation angle of Beidou satellite is higher than that of GPS satellite in Korea. In addition, GPS and Beidou's availability and positioning accuracy analysis are performed to confirm the effect of increasing elevation angle satellites. According to the results, Beidou is more effective than GPS in using high elevation satellites in Korea.
