In the next generation of ATM, ADS-B(Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) and multilateration are the main technology recommended by ICAO(International Civil Aviation Organization). However, there are a lot of non-equipped ADS-B aircraft today. Therefore, TIS-B(Traffic Information Service-Broadcast) provides traffic information, which has obtained from radars for non-equipped ADS-B aircraft. In this paper, we presented an onboard multilateration system for non-equipped ADS-B aircraft using SSR(Secondary Surveillance Radar) signal instead of TIS-B. TIS-B has a lot of error because of using radar data, but multilateration has less error than radar because of using TDOA(Time Difference of Arrival) method. Results of performance analysis show that the position accuracy is improved by the proposed method using on-board multilateration.

In this paper, cross ambiguity function map is proposed to estimate the location of a unknown interferer which emits the harmful radio in the satellite communication network. To estimate the interferer, a time difference between received radio signals at earth stations and a frequency difference caused by the movement of interferers or receiving earth stations are calculated. Therefore, cross ambiguity function is used to calculate that values. The calculating process of the time and the frequency differences using cross ambiguity function is operated at every designated time then the correlation values between the time and frequency are calculated. After calcuation, the final location of the harmful interferer is estimated. From the simulation results, about 800 m distance error is occurred at 10~4 dB of $E_b/N_0$ and about 13 km distance errer is occurred at -20 dB of $E_b/N_0$.

GPS based car navigation systems show significant problems in such environment as a tunnel, a road surrounded by high buildings. In this study, we thus propose a method to determine positions and attitudes using only in-vehicle sensory data without a GPS. To check the feasibility of this method, we constructed a system to acquire in-vehicle sensory data and reference data simultaneously. We acquired test data using this system, estimated the trajectory based on the proposed method and evaluated the accuracy of both the sensory data and the trajectory. The speed and angular velocities provided by the in-vehicle sensors include 1.1 km/h and 0.8 deg/s RMS errors, respectively. The estimated trajectory using these data shows 20.8 m RMS errors for a 15 minute drive. In future, if we further combine additional sensors such as a camera and a GPS, we can achieve a high accurate navigation system at a low cost without an expensive high-grade external IMU.

Smart City, a key application area of the AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things), provides various services in safety, security, and healthcare sectors through location tracking and location-based services. an IPS (Indoor Positioning System) is required to implement location-based services, and wireless communication technologies such as WiFi, UWB (Ultra-wideband), and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) are being applied. BLE, which enables data transmission and reception with low power consumption, can be applied to various IoT devices such as sensors and beacons at a low cost, making it one of the most suitable wireless communication technologies for indoor positioning. BLE utilizes the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) to estimate the distance, but due to the influence of multipath fading, which causes variations in signal strength, it results in an error of several meters. In this paper, we conducted research on a path loss model that can be applied to BLE IPS for proximity services, and confirmed that optimizing the free space propagation loss coefficient can reduce the distance error between the Tx and Rx devices.

In this paper, we propose a simple technique for the detection of a frequency jump in the GPS clock behavior. GPS satellite atomic clocks have characteristics of a second order polynomial in the long term and a non-periodic frequency drift in the short term, showing a sudden frequency jump occasionally. As satellite clock anomalies influence on GPS measurements, it requires to develop a real time technique for the detection of the clock anomaly on the real-time GPS precise point positioning. The proposed technique is based on Teager energy which is mainly used in the field of various signal processing for the detection of a specific signal or symptom. Therefore, we employed the Teager energy for the detection of the jump phenomenon of GPS satellite atomic clocks, and it showed that the proposed clock anomaly detection strategy outperforms a conventional detection methodology.

This paper presents the carrier phase DGPS method providing a stable navigation solution under the condition of frequent blockage of the GPS signals. The proposed algorithm reject the channels having large errors using a clock bias drift and then calculated the more accurate solution. By investigating the relation between visible satellites` elevation and their clock bias drift, a proper threshold is set. Simulation shows that the presented result is as good as that of commercial system with real data.

스마트폰의 GPS 기능으로 위치 정보를 수집하여 사용자에게 서비스를 제공하는 시스템이 많아지고 있다. 이러한 GPS 기능은 위성에서 송신된 신호로 위도와 경도를 측정하여 위치를 계산한다. 하지만, 이러한 기능은 사용자가 실외에 있을 경우에만 사용이 가능한 것으로, 실내에서는 사용이 불가능하다는 단점이 있다. 최근 상용화 되고 있는 UWB 레이더 센서는 실내외에서 사용이 가능하고, 객체 탐지 및 거리측정이 간단함과 동시에 저렴하다는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 UWB 레이더 센서와 표준편차를 이용하여 거리 측정 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 제시하고 있는 방법은 레이더 센서에서 나오는 raw data를 그래프화 하여 최대 탐지 거리가 몇 m 인지 파악하고, 파악된 최대 감지 거리를 일정 구간으로 나누어 구간별 거리를 측정한다. 그 후 표준편차 공식을 이용하여 객체의 유무를 판단한다. 실험 결과에서는 제시하는 방법으로 최대 거리 9.7m에서 최대 오차 0.27m 이내로 측정되는 것을 확인하였다.

An array aperture synthesis technique is proposed. The proposed method does not require the condition that the overlapped hydrophones have the identical position in space to estimate the phase correction factors. while the existing ETAM algorithm does. Therefore the proposed method increases the available data applied to extend the effective aperture length of the towed array. From the numerical experiments, the proposed method can reduce the mean square error in estimating the direction of a target signal.

This paper proposes an estimation algorithm to find the moment of inertia, which is essential to design high performance controller for motor drive system. The algorithm finds the moment of inertia observing the position error signal, which contains an error information of moment of inertia, generated by speed observer. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is easily realized in the observer-based speed detection method. The simulation and experimental results are also presented to confirm the performance of moment of inertia estimation method, which shows that the moment of inertia converges to the actual value within several seconds. The speed control responses and the designed speed controller performance match well.
