There is a method to enhance the pure navigation performance of INS(Inertial Navigation System) through the rotation of inertial measurement unit to compensate error sources of inertial sensors each other and that INS using this principle of operation is called rotational INS. In this paper, the exact error analysis of rotational INS based on ring laser gyro considering the coupling effect with gravity and earth rate is performed to evaluate the navigation performance by inertial sensor error sources. And error analysis and performance evaluation result confirmed by modelling and simulation is also proposed in this paper.

Air Traffic Management aims to fulfill the requirement of the aviation demander by constructing the most effective and safety aviation systems for providing safety and cost-effective service. All concerned parties of aviation present the needs of improving Air Traffic Management system for solving the issue of the current system and the air traffic capacity in the 21st century, and introduce the significant improvements from the conventional technology and method for the past 40 years. Accordingly, ICAO promotes the development of innovative procedures and technologies to solve the problems and meet the demands. It is the concept of Performance based Navigation(PBN) based on Communication, Navigation, and Surveillance/Air Traffic Management(CNS/ATM). This study defines differences between RNAV and RNP RNAV as methods of air navigation based on the CNS/ATM, and needs and requirements of PBN as an emerging global standard. It also outlines basic elements supporting and implementing the PBN concept.

Recently, researches on DBRN(DataBase Referenced Navigation) system are being carried out to replace GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System), as weaknesses of GNSS were found that are caused by the intentional interference and the jamming of the satellite signal. This paper describes the gravity gradient modeling and the construction of EKF(Extended Kalman Filter) based GGRN(Gravity Gradient Referenced Navigation). To analyze the performance of GGRN, fourteen flight trajectories were made for simulations over whole South Korea. During the simulations, we considered the errors in both DB(DataBase) and sensor as well as the flight altitudes. Accurate performances were found, when errors in the DB and the sensor are small and they located at lower altitude. For comparative evaluation, the traditional TRN(Terrain Referenced Navigation) was also developed and performances were analyzed relative to those from the GGRN. In fact, most of GGRN performed better in low altitude, but both of precise gravity gradient DB and gradiometer were required to obtain similar level of precisions at the high altitude. In the future, additional tests and evaluations on the GGRN need to be performed to investigate on more factors such as DB resolution, flight speed, and the update rate.

우리나라 R-Mode(Ranging Mode) 항법시스템은 국제해사기구(IMO, International Maritime Organization)에서 요구하는 항구 입출항용 항법 요구성능(정밀도 10m)을 만족하도록 개발을 진행하고 있다. R-Mode 항법시스템은 위성국 송출을 기반으로 하는 GPS와 달리 지상국 송출을 기반으로 한다. 또한 신호가 세기가 높아서 의도적 전파간섭이 어려우므로 국제해사기구가 요구하는 강인한 PNT(Resilient PNT) 시스템에 적합한 것으로 평가받고 있다. 이러한 요구조건과 기회신호(SoOp, Signal of Opportunity)의 국내 환경에 맞추어 중파(MF, Middle Frequency) 및 초단파(VHF, Very High Frequency)를 이용하는 항법시스템을 개발하고 있다. 해양수산부의 지원으로 2020년에 착수하여 4국의 중파 R-Mode 송신국과 3국의 초단파 VDES R-Mode 송신국 구축을 진행하고 있다. 항법 성능을 확보하기 위하여 R-Mode 보정시스템과 R-Mode 감시시스템을 구축하였다. 해양에서 R-Mode 항법시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 중파 R-Mode 수신기, VDES R-Mode 수신기 및 이를 포함하는 통합항법수신기를 함께 개발하고 있다. 항법 송신기 및 수신기의 성능 검증을 위한 테스트베드는 기존의 지상파 항법(eLoran) 서비스 영역, 중파 R-Mode 서비스 영역 및 주요 항만 등을 고려하여 충청남도 서산시 대산항 지역으로 선정하였다. 보정국 및 감시국을 포함하는 테스트베드 기지국은 대산항에 설치하여 운영을 시작하였다. 테스트베드 실해역 시험을 통한 성능 검증은 2023년 상반기에 진행될 계획이다.

Batch process TRN(Terrain Relative Navigation) using an altimeter is a technique to correct position by correlating a series of periodically measured terrain height profile and terrain height candidate profile of the DEM(Digital Elevation Map). However, it is generally known that the performance of TRN is degraded when measured terrain height profile and terrain height candidate profiles of the DEM are similar at hill or repetitive terrain. In this paper, area based terrain slope roughness index[11] is applied and area based terrain curvature roughness index which can detect similarity of terrain in ROI(Region Of Interest) is proposed to overcome this problem. Applying terrain roughness indexes to terrain relative navigation system of lunar lander, it is shown that TRN using area based terrain roughness results in improved performance compared to conventional trajectory based method through simulation.

사용자의 위치기반 서비스에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 보행자의 현재 이동경로와 위치를 나타내는 '보행자 항법 시스템(PDR, Pedestrian Dead Reckoning)'에 관한 많은 연구들이 진행 중이다. 보행자 관성 항법 시스템은 IMU를 통해 데이터를 수신하여 각속도와 가속도 값을 구하고, 이 값을 토대로 사용자의 속도와 위치를 추정 한다. 또한 Zero-velocity(영속도)검출을 통해 누적되는 오차를 보정한다. 지금까지 대부분의 보행자 관성항법 시스템의 성능평가는 보행속도가 느리고 제한적인 상황에서 수행되었다. 하지만 이러한 상황은 보행자의 실제 보행상태를 반영하지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 보행속도에 따른 관성 항법 시스템의 성능을 실험하고 결과를 분석한다.

In the paper, we predict the number of multi-GNSS satellites and visible satellites with the navigation satellite launch plans and their nominal orbit parameters. Based on the methodology, the multi-GNSS navigation performance and DOP (Dilution of Precision) variation from 2015 to 2020 were forecasted by the Matlab simulation. To calculate the position using the multi-GNSS constellation, we determined the time-offset between the two different systems. Two different algorithms were considered for the sake of time-offset determination; that of each was applied to system level and user side. Also, the results from two algorithms were compared for evaluating each performance. For the reality, we applied the 3D map information to the simulation, which is expected to contribute for predicting the future navigation performance in urban canyon.

Link-K is a tactical data link system for joint operation capability upgrade of ROK forces. Link-K is inter-operable with Link-16 and transmit and received information of operations and target. In Link-K communication channel, PPLI message including transmitter position and TOA measurement can be used for relative navigation. Therefore Link-K based relative navigation system can be operated. In this paper, software based simulations were carried out for operational feasibility test and performance verification as error factors of proposed Link-K based relative navigation system.

이 연구에서는 네트워크 기반의 다중기준국을 이용하여 육상교통환경에서 항법위성의 궤도력에 따른 위치결정 성능향상의 정도를 분석하였다. 위성항법보정시스템(Differential Global Positioning System)을 활용하였을 경우 항법위성의 궤도력 오차정보가 소거되지 않는다는 가정 하에 방송궤도력이 아닌 International GNSS Service(IGS) 정밀궤도력중 신속궤도력(Ultra-Rapid)을 이용하여 궤도력 오차에 따라 위치결정 정확도가 향상됨을 확인하였다. 일반적으로 사용하는 위성항법보정시스템을 활용한 위치결정 방법은 기준국과 사용자의 거리에 따라서 그 성능이 달라진다. 이는 궤도 오차, 대류층 및 전리층 오차 등이 거리에 의존적이기 때문이다. 다중기준국을 활용하는 방법은 거리가 멀어짐에 따라 소거되지 않는 오차등을 극복하기 위한 기술이며 사용자 주변을 둘러싼 기준국들의 측정값을 조합하여 보상을 하거나 정확하게 모델링하여 사용자에게 오차정보를 보정정보로 전송하여 위치결정의 성능을 향상시키는 방법이다. 분석된 결과는 네트워크 기반의 다중기준국 환경에서 사용자와 기준국간의 거리에 따른 공간이격 오차정보 보정정보 생성 연구에 활용하며 이를 통해 육상교통 사용자의 위치결정 정확도 성능을 향상하는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
