To expand the application area of global navigation satellite systems, precision landing is one of the most critical area to be solved. For the development and validation of the precision landing system, many aspects need to be analyzed including the system architecture, signal characteristics, atmospheric delay, communication delay, accuracy, integrity, and availability. Among them, the signal characteristics analysis requires the processing of measurements collected by real-flight experiments. This paper presents the processing results of the real measurements collected by a flight and landing experiment. To process and analyze the data, double differencing position-domain hatch filter is utilized. Accuracy of the proposed filter is evaluated utilizing reference trajectory generated by commercial software. Finally, by comparing with conventional range domain characteristics of position domain filter is analyzed.

Michibiki is the first QZSS satellite, which was launched by a H-IIA rocket departing from the Tanegshima in Japan on 11 September, 2010 and now operated successfully. This paper presents the results obtained from processing of the L1 C/A signal transmitted from the QZSS satellite. The acquisition and tracking are performed by the L1 software receiver implemented by ETRI. The signal processing results show that QZSS L1 C/A signal is normally processed through the tracking loop results of FLL, PLL, and DLL, the EPL correlator output, and the C/No output. Finally, the paper demonstrates that the QZSS satellite could be used in the navigation system together with the GPS satellite in Korea.

Launch of the first Quasi-Zentih Satellite System (QZSS) satellite, dubbed Michibiki, took place September 11, 2010 and technical and application verification of the satellite is being carried out. This paper presents the results obtained from processing of the L5 signal transmitted from the QZSS satellite. The QZSS L5 signal is collected in ETRI, Korea. And then, the acquisition and tracking are performed by the L5 software receiver implemented by ETRI. The tracking loop of FLL, PLL, and DLL, the EPL correlator output, and the C/No output results show that the QZSS L5 signal is normally processed. Finally, the paper demonstrates that the QZSS L5 signal could be used as GPS satellite based augmentation system in Korea as well as Japan.

China has deployed BDS along with the service of SBAS by 2020. Currently, the correction information for testing BDSBAS is provided through the BDS B1I signal. Many research on SBAS other than BDSBAS has been conducted in Korea. However, studies on BDSBAS are insufficient although Korea is included in both the coverage area of MSAS and BDSBAS. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously analyze the performance of MSAS and BDSBAS. In this paper, the performance of MSAS and BDSBAS in Korea, China, and Japan is analyzed in the aspect of positioning accuracy using the GNSS RINEX data provided by IGS. A Software platform is designed to analyze the performance of GPS-only, BDS-only, GPS/MSAS and BDS/BDSBAS. From the result, it can be concluded that the accuracy enhancement can be hardly seen when using the correction information of MSAS and BDSBAS in Korea

An ongoing research project is devoted to the design and implementation of a satellite based asset tracking for supporting emergency management in crisis operations. Due to the emergency environment, one has to rely on a low power consumption wireless communication. Therefore, the communication hardware and software must be designed to match requirements, which can only be foreseen at the level of more or less likely scenarios. The latter aspect suggests a deep use of a simulator (instead of a real network of sensors) to cover extreme situations. The former power consumption remark suggests the use of a minimal computer (Raspberry Pi) as data collector.

The main function in operating the satellite navigation system is to accurately determine the orbit of the navigation satellite and transmit it as a navigation message. In this study, we developed software to determine the orbit of a navigation satellite by combining an extended Kalman filter and an accurate dynamic model. Global positioning system (GPS) and quasi-zenith satellite system (QZSS) orbit determination was performed using international gnss system (IGS) ground station observations and user range error (URE), a key performance indicator of the navigation system, was calculated by comparison with IGS precise ephemeris. When estimating the clock error mounted on the navigation satellite, the radial orbital error and the clock error have a high inverse correlation, which cancel each other out, and the standard deviations of the URE of GPS and QZSS are small namely 1.99 m and 3.47 m, respectively. Instead of estimating the clock error of the navigation satellite, the orbit was determined by replacing the clock error of the navigation message with a modeled value, and the regional correlation with URE and the effect of the ground station arrangement were analyzed.

Currently, GPS data process software appears different results that according to user's skills or software. Also, lots of time and efforts are necessary for using GPS data process software to general user, not a specialist On the other band, on-line GPS data process service have a merit that can cony out GPS data process without technical efforts and time. In this study, permanent GPS site's observation data of NGII(National Geographic Information Institute) was processed by on-line GPS data process service, and utilization assessment of on-line GPS data process service was performed by comparing this result with notified coordinates by the NGII in order to analyze positional accuracy. 10 permanent GPS sites of NGII including Suwon which is registered in IGS(International GNSS Service) were selected and these GPS observation data was processed by AUSPOS and CSRS-PPP.

Hardware dedicated off-the-shelf maritime differential GPS RSIM lacks the open architecture to meet all the minimum maritime user requirements and to include future GNSS improvements after recapitalization. This paper carries out a study to replace existing hardware dedicated differential GPS RSIM with software differential GPS RSIM in order to make up the weak point of hardware dedicated off-the-shelf maritime differential GPS RSIM. In this paper, the architecture of software RSIM is proposed for maritime DGPS recapitalization. And the feasibility analysis of the proposed software differential GPS RSIM is performed as the first phase to realize the proposed architecture. For the feasibility analysis, the prototype RF module and DSP module are implemented with properties as wide RF bandwidth, high sampling frequency, and high speed transmission interface. This paper shows that the proposed architecture has the possibility of real time operation of software RSIM functionality onto the PC-based platform through the analysis of computation time. Finally, this paper verifies that the L1/L2 dual frequency software differential RSIM designed according to the proposed method satisfies the performance specifications set out in RTCM paper 221-2006-SC104-STD.
