  • Positioning technology for moving object is an important and essential component of ubiquitous. Also RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) is a core technology of ubiquitous wireless communication. In this study we adapted kalman-filter theory to RFID-based Positioning System in order to trace a time-variant moving object and verify the positioning accuracy using RMSE (Roong technology for moving object is an important and essential component of ubiquitous Mean Square Error). The purpose of this study is to verify an effect of kalman-filter on the positioning accuracy and to analyze what does each design factor have an effect on the positioning accuracy by means of simulations and to suggest a standard of optimal design factor of a RFID-based Positioning System. From the results of simulations, Kalman-filer improved the positioning accuracy remarkably; the detection range of RFID tag is not a determining factor. The smaller standard deviation of detection range improves the positioning accuracy. However it accompanies a smaller fluctuation of the positioning accuracy. The larger detection rate of RFID tag yields the smaller fluctuation in the positioning accuracy and has more stable system and improves the positioning accuracy;

  • Purpose: The main function of INS (Inertial Navigation System) is to measure the position of an armed vehicle and its performance is confirmed through the positioning accuracy test of Korean Defense Standards (KDS). The current standards, however, do not provide clear test methods and the conditions for performing positioning accuracy tests. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to develop a new method for positioning accuracy test which would be effective. Methods: In this study, a new INS positioning accuracy test method is suggested based on the analysis of test data collected through a statistical experiment known as central composite design. For the positioning accuracy experiment of K105A1, a self-propelled artillery, two factors of driving velocity and driving distance are considered. Results: Based on the analysis of experimental data, a regression model for the positioning error is fitted and the positioning accuracy test of INS is so developed to maximize the positioning error. The standard proximity rate is used as an additional test criterion to evaluate the performance level of INS. Conclusion: The proposed new positioning accuracy test for INS has the advantage of finding the nonconforming items effectively. It is also expected to be utilized for the other similar INS positioning accuracy tests.

  • The International GNSS Service (IGS) provides the IGS-Real Time Service (IGS-RTS) corrections that can be used in stand-alone positioning in real time. In this study, the positioning accuracy before and after the application of the corrections to broadcast ephemeris by applying the IGS-RTS corrections at code pseudo-range based stand-alone positioning was compared with positioning result using precise ephemeris. The analysis result on IGS-RTS corrections showed that orbit error and clock error were 0.05 m and 0.5 ns compared to precise ephemeris and accuracy improved by about 8.5% compared to the broadcast ephemeris-applied result when the IGS-RTS was applied to positioning. Furthermore, regionally dispersed five observatories were selected to analyze the effect of external environments on positioning accuracy and positioning errors according to location and time were compared as well as the number of visible satellites and position dilution of precision by observatory were analyzed to verify a correlation with positioning error.

  • This study analyzed positioning accuracy of the multi-differential global navigation satellite system (DGNSS) algorithm that integrated GPS, GLONASS, and BDS. Prior to the analysis, four sites of which satellite observation environment was different were selected, and satellite observation environments for each site were analyzed. The analysis results of the algorithm performance at each of the survey points showed that high positioning performance was obtained by using DGPS only without integration of satellite navigation systems in the open sky environment but the positioning performance of multi-DGNSS became higher as the satellite observation environments degraded. The comparison results of improved positioning performance of the multi-DGNSS at the poor reception environment compared to differential global positioning system (DGPS) positioning results showed that horizontal accuracy was improved by 78% and vertical accuracy was improved by 65% approximately.

  • Due to the large size and high complexity of modern buildings, the interest and the studies about indoor spatial information are increasing. Previous studies related to indoor spatial information were mostly about relevant technologies, and the application of indoor spatial information has been less studied. In the present study, the public administrative work areas where indoor spatial information may be applied were identified by using a modified delphi technique. And the indoor LOD (Level of Detail) and indoor positioning accuracy for indoor spatial information applications considering user requirements was established as standards for efficiently establishing and providing services. The required LOD and positioning accuracy for services was established by reestablishing indoor LOD and positioning accuracy and classifying services with reference to those. The indoor LOD was reestablished from LOD 0 to 4 by focusing on service utilization and general recognition, and the positioning accuracy was reestablished in three levels by considering the accuracy of the present positioning technology and service utilization status.

  • This paper presents a development of an analog type magnetic positioning system and its positioning accuracy improvement using fuzzy inference system. As the magnetic positioning system used on a magnet-gyro guidance system for AGV(automatic guided vehicle), it measures a position of magnet embedded in floor of the work place. The existing product of the magnetic positioning system is very expensive in Korea because it is being sold in a foreign country exclusively. Moreover, the positioning accuracy of the product is low because it uses digital type unipolar hall sensors. Hence, we developed the magnetic positioning system by ourselves and improved the positioning accuracy of the developed magnetic positioning system using fuzzy inference system. For experiment, we used the analog type magnetic positioning system which we have developed, and compared the performance of the proposed method with the performance of the existing positioning method for the magnetic positioning system. In experimental results, we verified that the proposed method improved the positioning accuracy of the magnetic positioning system.

  • The demand for indoor positioning is increasing day by day. However, the widely used positioning methods today cannot satisfy the requirements of the indoor environment in terms of the positioning accuracy and deployment cost. In the existing research domain, the localization algorithm based on three-dimensional space is less accurate, and its robustness is not high. Visible light communication technology (VLC) combines lighting and positioning to reduce the cost of equipment deployment and improve the positioning accuracy. Further, it has become a popular research topic for telecommunication and positioning in the indoor environment. This paper proposes a surface centroid TOA localization algorithm based on the VLC system. The algorithm uses the multiple solutions estimated by the trilateration method to form the intersecting planes of the spheres. Then, it centers the centroid of the surface area as the position of the unknown node. Simulation results show that compared with the traditional TOA positioning algorithm, the average positioning error of the surface centroid TOA algorithm is reduced by 0.3243 cm and the positioning accuracy is improved by 45%. Therefore, the proposed algorithm has better positioning accuracy than the traditional TOA positioning algorithm, and has certain application value.

  • In this paper, we propose a method to improve the positioning accuracy of TOA based indoor positioning system in NLOS environments. TOA based indoor positioning systems have been studied mostly considering LOS environments. However, it is almost impossible to maintain the LOS environments due to obstacles such as people, furniture, walls, and so on. The proposed method in this study compensates the range error caused by the NLOS environments. We confirmed that positioning accuracy of a proposed method is improved than conventional algorithms through simulation and field test.
