This paper proposes a new method achieving computationally efficient attitude reference system for low cost strapdown sensors and microprocessor platform. The main idea in this method is to define and compare velocity differential vectors, geometrically computed from INS and GPS data with different update rate, for generating attitude error measurements which is further used for filter construction. A quaternion based Kalman filter configuration is applied for the attitude estimation with the adapted measurement model of differential vector comparison. Linearized model for Extended Kalman Filter and low pass filtered characteristics of measurement greatly extend the affordability of the proposed algorithm to the field of simple low cost embedded systems. For performance verification, experiment are done employing a practical low cost MEMS IMU and GPS receiver specification. Performance comparison with a high grade navigation system demonstrated good estimation result.

In this paper, the GPS cycle-slip detection for carrier-phase based positioning of land vehicle is presented. For the carrier phase based positioning, cycle-slip detection is necessary to get the reliability of positioning result. There exists many cycle-slip detection algorithms, but we detect the cycle-slip by using the monitoring value which is defined as residual between the carrier phase measurement and estimated value from low-cost inertial sensor. To achieve goal of paper, low-cost cycle-slip detection system, permissible specification region of inertial sensor is derived. By using the result of permissible region, appropriate inertial sensor of cycle-slip detection can be decided, proper cost and proper specification. To verify the result of this paper, we conduct the rate table test. As a result, required cycle-slip detection performance is satisfied conservatively.

Various studies such as INS(: Inertial Navigation System) are conducting to estimate the position of UAV, because the GPS information of UAV is at risk like the GPS jamming. The position estimation using DoA and RTT are used to apply many radar systems, and that process can be applied in datalink of UAV. The general monopulse feed in UAV datalink is Multi-horn, because of the wide BW(: Band Width) and frequency range. And it needs wide SNR range of tracking because of the limited transmit power of airborne unit. The estimation error of position increase at low SNR, and the DoA is valid in only 3dB beam width but high SNR causes false of mainlobe detection because of large sidelobe. In this paper, We propose the method to achieve higher accuracy of DoA estimation on low SNR and review some idea that able to detect mainlobe.

A distributed missile system is composed of command control center, radar and launcher which exchange information each other to use wire or wireless network. The distributed missile system is required mobility for operational convenience and survivability. Also missile system requests land navigation system to provide relatively accurate attitude. For reason of these requirements, each subsystem needs land navigation which provides information of position and attitude. This paper represents operational concept for land navigation to consider operational environment and concrete operational procedure to apply the operational concept. In state that there is no operation for land navigation of distributed missile system internally so for, this paper could be helped to establish operational concept and procedure of this kind of system.

MMS(Mobile Mapping System) generates a efficient image data for mapping and facility management. However, this image data of MMS has many difficulties in a practical use because of huge data volume. Therefore the important information likes road sign post must be extracted from huge MMS image data. In Korea, there is the HMS(Highway Management System) to manage a national road that acquire the line and condition of road from the MMS images. In the HMS each road sign information is manually inputted by the keyboard from moving MMS. This manually passive input way generate the error like inaccurate position, mistaking input in this research we developed the automatic road sign identifying technique using the image processing and the direct geo-referencing by GPS/INS data. This development brings not only good flexibility for field operations, also efficient data processing in HMS.

Geo-pointing is a function that maintains LOS(Line of Sight) to a stationary ground target by controlling azimuth and elevation angles of a EOS(Electro-Optical System) which are calculated from aircraft navigation data and target coordinates. In design and implementation of the geo-pointing, a transmission time delay between GPS/INS and EOS is a major degradation factor of the geo-pointing performance when the aircraft is rapidly maneuvered especially. In this paper, a kalman filter is designed to compensate the transmission time delay of aircraft navigation data. Simulation and test results show that the geo-pointing performance is enhanced by the proposed compensation technique.

지형 참조 항법(TRN, Terrain reference navigation)은 항체에 탑재된 지형 데이터베이스와 센서로부터 측정된 고도값을 대조하여 항체의 위치를 알아내는 것으로, GPS/INS 결합항법 시스템의 대체 항법으로 많이 알려져 있다. 지형의 형태에 따라서 시스템의 정확도와 안정성이 달라지기 때문에 특정적인 지형 정보를 이용하여 지형 데이터베이스와 대조하는 과정이 매우 중요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 센서 측정값과 지형 데이터베이스 상의 값에서 지형의 특성적 변화가 발생하는 지점인 Model Key Point를 2D Douglas-Peucker 알고리즘을 이용하여 추출하고 이를 항법 알고리즘에 적용하여 시뮬레이션 하였다. 그 결과 오차가 발산하지 않고 수십m 급의 항법 정밀도를 얻을 수 있었다.

Airborne LIDAR systems have been increasingly used for various applications as an effective surveying mean that can be complementary or alternative to the traditional one based on aerial photos. A LIDAR system is a multi-sensor system consisting of GPS, INS, and a laser scanner and hence the errors associated with the LIDAR data can be significantly affected by not only the errors associated with each individual sensor but also the errors involved in combining these sensors. The analysis about these errors have been performed by some researchers but yet insufficient so that the results can be critically contributed to performing accurate calibration of LIDAR data. In this study, we thus analyze these error sources, derive their mathematical models and perform the sensitivity analysis to assess how significantly each error affects the LIDAR data. The results from this sensitivity analysis in particular can be effectively used to determine the main parameters modelling the systematic errors associated with the LIDAR data for their calibration.

All around tile world there has been great human and economical damage continuously by disasters like the earthquakes and storms(Tsunami) in eastern asia which recently occurred, and like the New Orleams hurricane in USA. The situation is our countries damage from natural disasters due to heavy snow, storms, forest fires have been increasing In this research we obtained GSIS data of the 05' Yang-yang forest fire disaster area using multi-sensors like airborne laser data, GPS/INS, aerial photograph surveying. In result we produced digital topographical maps, digital elevation models, digital external models, digital images, infrared images. By, analyzing and comparing with past aerial photography we obtained the exact damage area, amount of damage, estimated tile areas where a landslide might occur, and we analyzed vegetations amount of damage and possibility of recovery.
