The satellite navigation system was developed for the purpose of calculating the location of local users, starting with the Global Positioning System (GPS) in the 1980s. Advanced countries in the space industry are operating Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) that covers the entire earth, such as GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou, by establishing satellite navigation systems for each country. Regional Navigation Satellite Systems (RNSS) such as QZSS and NavIC are also in operation. In the early 2010s, only GPS and GLONASS could calculate location using a single system for location determination. After 2016, the EU and China also completed the establishment of GNSS such as Galileo and BeiDou. As a result, satellite navigation users can benefit from improved availability of GNSS. In addition, before Galileo and BeiDou's Full Operational Capability (FOC) declaration, they used combined navigation algorithms to calculate the user's location by adding another satellite navigation system to the GPS satellites. Recently, it may be possible to calculate a user's location for each navigation system using the resources of a single system. In this paper, we evaluated the performance of single system navigation and combined navigation solutions of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou and QZSS individual navigation systems using high-performance GNSS receivers.

GPS 수신기와 안테나로 구성된 위성신호 수신장치는 RS-232 to TC/IP 프로토콜 변환장치를 통해 데이터 처리 및 분석을 수행하는 신호처리장치의 Host PC에 연결되도록 설계되었다. 이는 GPS 수신기의 설치 위치 제한을 극복하고 수신기와 안테나 간의 물리적 거리를 줄일 수 있어 GPS 수신 신호의 열화를 방지할 수 있는 방법이다.

The International GNSS Service (IGS) has managed the global GNSS network and provided the highest quality GNSS data and products, which are GPS ephemerides, clock information and Earth orientation parameter, as the standard for GNSS. An important part of its works is to provide the precise orbits of GPS satellites. GPS satellites send their orbit information (broadcast ephemerides) to users and their accuracies are approximately 1.6 meters level, but those accuracies are not sufficient for the high precise applications which require millimeters precision. The current accuracies of the IGS final orbits are within 5 centimeters level and they are used for Earth science, meteorology, space science, and they are made by the IGS analysis centers and combined by the IGS analysis center coordinator. The techniques making the products are very difficult and require the high technology. The Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) studies to make the IGS products. In this study, we developed our own processing strategy and made GPS ephemerides using Bernese GPS software Ver. 5.0. We used the broadcast ephemerides as the initial orbits and processed the globally distributed 150 IGS stations. The result shows about 6 to 8 centimeters in root-mean-squares related to IGS final orbits in each day during a week. We expect that this study can contribute to secure our own high technology.

The use of dual-frequency measurements from the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) enables us to observe precise ionospheric total electron content (TEC). Currently, many GNSS reference stations in South Korea provide both GPS and GLONASS data. In the present study, we estimated the grid-based TEC values and relative receiver differential code biases (DCB) from a GNSS network operated by the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute. In addition, we compared the diurnal variations in a TEC time series from solutions of the GPS only, the GLONASS only, and combined GPS/GLONASS processing. A significant difference between the GPS only TEC and combined GPS/GLONASS TEC at a specific grid point over South Korea appeared near the solar terminator. It is noted that GLONASS measurements can contribute to observing a variation in ionospheric TEC over high latitude regions.

본 연구에서는 가까운 장래에 실현될 GNSS(Global Navigation Positioning System) 결합측위의 가용성을 평가하기 위하여, GPS(Global Positioning System), Galileo 및 QZSS(Quasi-Zenith Satellites System)의 직달파(direct signal), 반사파(reflected signal), 회절파(diffracted signal) 식별을 위한 신호 전달 모형을 수립하고 이를 3차원 지리정보시스템과 결합함으로써, 위성 가시도와 측위 오차 요소를 모사 측정하였다. 중고층 빌딩이 밀집한 일본 동경도청 부근의 $1km{\times}1km$ 구역을 40,000개의 $5m{\times}5m$ 격자로 구획하여 실시한 시뮬레이션을 통해, GPS 측위와 GNSS 결합측위에 있어서 가시위성의 개수, 위성 고도, 정밀도 저하율(dilution of position : DOP), 의사거리 다중 경로 오차(pseudorange multipath error : PME)를 비교 평가하였다. GNSS 결합측위에서는 가시위성 및 직달파 위성의 개수가 현격히 증가함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 위성고도의 평균은 GPS 측위에서보다 약간 낮게 나타나지만, 위성들의 기하학적 배치가 양호하게 이루어져 정밀도 저하율이 매우 감소함을 알 수 있다. 고밀도 도시공간에서는 빌딩 등의 전파 반사로 인해 발생하는 의사거리 다중경로 오차를 완화하는 것이 사용자 위치 정확도를 향상시키기 위한 핵심적인 요소이므로, 수신기 안테나의 설계 및 배치, 신호처리 및 공간통계 기법 등을 GNSS 결합측위에 적합하도록 개선하는 것이 필요할 것이다.

This paper designs a software signal generator for the new GPS L2 civil signal. The CM/CL code and the message structure of L2CS described in GPS ICD PPIRN-200C-007 are used in designing the signal generator. The output of the GPS signal generator is designed as the sampled IF data with the sampling frequency 5.7MHz and stored in the binary data format. By analyzing both the spectrum characteristics of the output signal and the correlation properties of the CM/CL code, the validation of the designed GPS signal generator is shown. It should be mentioned that the modeling of the GPS satellite constellation and the error sources remains for implementing the software space segment of GPS.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the performance of different solution types(a GPS-only, a GLONASS-only, and a GNSS solution) on GNSS positioning modes which are point positioning and relative positioning(DGNSS-, Static-, and Kinematic-solutions). I started with GNSS sites of seoul metropolitan government's RTK network which providing combined GPS/GLONASS observations : Gangseo(GANS), Dobong(DBON). The positioning accuracy of different solution types on positining modes are compared. Considering the compared results of all cases, can find not only the difference of the performance between the GNSS solution and the GPS-only solution is very small, but also the GLONASS-only solution is not far from the other solution types taking into consideration that GLONASS system is not (yet) a complete system.

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) positioning has been widely used in geodesy, surveying, and navigation fields. RTK can benefit enormously from the integration of multi-GNSS. In this study, we develop a GPS/BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) RTK integration algorithm for long baselines ranging from 128 km to 335 km in South Korea. The positioning performance with GPS/BDS RTK, GPS-only RTK, and BDS-only RTK is compared in terms of the positioning accuracy. An improvement of positioning accuracy over long baselines can be found with GPS/BDS RTK compared with that of GPS-only RTK and that of BDS-only RTK. The positioning accuracy of GPS/BDS RTK is better than 2 cm in the horizontal direction and better than 5 cm in the vertical direction. A lower Relative Dilution of Precision (RDOP) value with GPS/BDS integration can obtain a better positional precision for long baseline RTK positioning.
