This paper analyzes the availability and Dilution Of Precision (DOP) of GPS, widely used in positioning, with and without augmentation using QZSS (Quasi-Zenith Satellite System). Orbit simulator for QZSS is developed using Kepler‘s orbital parameters. Also 3D modeling technique based on three-Dimensional GIS digital map and satellite tracking algorithm for visible satellite simulation system are discussed. Performance improvement of the availability and DOP were achieved by combining GPS with QZSS at urban environment of Seoul.

As a dependency on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) becomes increase in various applications, its reliability has been very important. However, in South Korea, Global Positioning System (GPS) jamming incident happened four times since 2010. GNSS signal is so weak that it is highly susceptible to all types of the jamming. GNSS jamming can cause serious damage in the safety-critical applications based on the GNSS. In this paper, we present the GNSS jamming signal propagation prediction simulator based on ITU-R P.1546 model. This simulator is developed for preventing or reducing the damage from the GNSS jamming attack by predicting the jamming propagation strength based on the geographical information in Korean peninsula.

본 논문에서는 골프 코스 시뮬레이션을 위해 수집된 데이터의 정제 및 처리에 요구되는 딥 러닝 모델과 모델 적용 과정에 대해서 논의한다. 최근 스크린 골프 시장의 확대와 골프 시뮬레이터 기술의 발전으로, 위성 이미지, 항공 촬영 이미지, 공간 정보 시스템 (GIS) 등 다양한 데이터 소스로부터 골프 코스에 대한 정보를 수집에 대한 요구가 증가하였다. 이번 연구에서는 이러한 데이터 소스로부터 생성된 원시 데이터를 최적의 시뮬레이션 입력으로 변환하기 위한 컴퓨터 비전 기법과 딥 러닝 모델 구조에 대해서 검토한다. 특히, 데이터에서 골프 코스 시뮬레이션에 요구되는 메타 데이터를 도출하기 위해 코스 분할(Segmentation)과 코스 오브젝트 분류(Classification) 모델을 적용하는 과정을 다룬다. 이를 통해, 본 연구는 골프 코스 시뮬레이터의 개발 과정에서 중요한 기술 요소를 제공하며, 이는 시뮬레이션의 정확도와 골프 코스의 다양성을 증진시키는데에 기여한다.

The altitudes of GEO satellites are higher than those of GPS satellites. Therefore the visibility and the received power of GPS signals are totally different from those of the users near the Earth's surface. In this study, we analyzed the visibility of GPS signals received on GEO satellites. And we also developed a software GPS receiver that works on GEO satellites using CCMDB algorithm which is a weak signal receiver algorithm. GPS signals received on a GEO satellite are generated by a commercial hardware GPS simulator and used for the verification of the developed software GPS receiver. The mean 3D position and velocity error are calculated as 165.636 m and 0.5081 m/s.

We propose the design of an INS simulated equipment to evaluate the enhanced jamming resistance of an INS-aided GPS receiver with INS, when a jamming signal is injected into a simulated high dynamic platform. We propose the design of a relative cheap INS simulated equipment, instead of an expensive INS simulator connected to GPS simulators. Based on the design, we implement the equipment and setup high dynamic test environment using the equipment to evaluate an INS-aided GPS receiver. In the GPS L1 C/A and L2C simulations that inject jamming signals of the narrow and wide bandwidth into the GPS receiver with and without INS-aided algorithm, we obtain increased jamming resistance performance as +5 dB compared with the GPS receiver without INS-aided algorithm in all kinds of jamming bandwidth. Based on the simulations, we verified that the INS simulated equipment can be used to evaluate the enhanced jamming resistance of INS-aided GPS receivers.

In this paper, the novel shipboard Active Phased Array Antenna(APAA) system for maritime mobile satellite communications is introduced. The antenna uses novel technologies like wide range hybrid tracking, single antenna elements with both of Rx and Tx, asymmetrical array structure, interference isolation between Rx and Tx, and error correction method from frequency scan effect. The antenna has single aperture for both of Rx and Tx with 32 $\times$ 4 two-dimensional array. The antenna has two beams. Its frequencies are 7.25 ~ 7.75 GHz for Rx and 7.9 ~ 8.4 GHz for Tx. The antenna gains are 35.4 dBi for Rx and 35.7 dBi for Tx, those are 54 % of efficiency. The electrically steering ranges are $\pm$35$^{\circ}$ of elevation direction and $\pm$4$^{\circ}$ of azimuth direction. The mechanical control ranges at hybrid tracking capability are continuous 360$^{\circ}$ of azimuth direction and $\pm$10$^{\circ}$ of elevation direction. The antenna has 2.2$^{\circ}$ of 3 dB beamwidth, -14 dB of sidelobe level, and 21 dB of cross-pol suppression. The antenna performance was measured by near field measurement set. Its system performance was tested on the ship motion simulator and with the satellite transponder simulator. The test result showed that its tracking error was within -3 dB from its peak gain under motion condition. The antenna system was tested by real modulated Direct Broadcasting Satellite(DBS) signals to check its communication processing function.

A positioning technique using the augmentation system has been researched to improve the accuracy. The network RTK is the precise positioning technique using carrier phase correction data from reference stations and is constantly being researched. The study for the system accuracy has been performed but system integrity research has not been done as much as system accuracy. In this paper, we presented the anomaly detection algorithm by satellite system and the diagnosis algorithm to a basic research in the integrity on network RTK. And the presented algorithms are verified on the DL-V3 dual-frequency receiver and the simulated error scenario using the GSS7700.

Basic and transmission video quality testing was performed in real-time mode using hardware video codec based on MPEG-2 MP@ML standard including subsequent transmitting and receiving satellite simulator unit. The double-stimulus Impairment scale method and the double-stimulus continous quality scale method based on CCIR 500-5 were used as an evaluation method. The whole digital broadcasting satellite system consisting of MPEG-2 codec, system mux/demux, channel codec, channel, modem, antenna, etc. was put into the overall video quality testbed and the basic and transmission error quality assessment was performed at various bitrates and BER for an integrated system performance evaluation. In transmission error video quality testing, transmission error video quality maintained on average above 3.9 point on the 5-point scale. The low-bit rate quality such as film mode(@2Mbps) highly depended on the statitical characteristics of video source and maintained on average around 2.7 point.

현재 개발 중인 탑재컴퓨터의 메인 프로세서는 MCMERC32SC를 사용하고 있으며, 탑재소프트웨어를 개발하기 위하여 Gaisler Reserach사에서 개발된 소프트웨어 기반의 TSIM-ERC32 에뮬레이터를 이용하여 실시간 위성 시뮬레이터를 개발되어 탑재소프트웨어 개발 및 검증에 사용하였다. 차세대 저궤도 위성 탑재 컴퓨터의 메인 프로세서는 현재 LEON2/3이 사용되고 있으며, LEON2/3 프로세서를 모사해주는 소프트웨어 기반의 에뮬레이터의 경우 LEON2/3의 높은 성능 때문에 실시간 성능을 만족시키지 못하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 현재 ESA에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여 하드웨어 기반의 프로세서 에뮬레이터를 개발/사용하고 있으며, 또 다른 방식으로 기존 프로세서 에뮬레이터가 interpretation방식을 사용한 반면 dynamic translation방식의 에뮬레이터를 개발하여 5~10배 이상의 성능 향상을 통해 실시간 성능을 만족시키고 있다. 이 논문에서는 현재 사용 중인 ERC32 프로세서를 dynamic translation emulation 기법을 사용하여 프로세서 에뮬레이터 개발 방법과 현재 상황에 대해서 설명하며, 추후 LEON2/3를 위한 에뮬레이터 개발의 가능성에 대해서 설명한다.
