Currently, GPS(Global Positioning System) is used to find user location information. However, in some cases, especially in urban environments, we receive unreliable location information deu to multipath fading. In order to resolve this problem, we propose a closely coupled positioning technique where GPS signal is combined with QZSS signal. Also we proposed and analyze a combining algorithm of GNSS and Wi-Fi signals to get closely coupled location information by referring AP information. Finally, this paper proposes a combined GPS/QZSS/Wi-Fi navigation algorithm to improve navigation performance, and it is verified by testing of car deriving according to availability and accuracy standard.

Currently many vessels determine an overhead obstruction by a rule of thumb based on their draft for maritime navigation. Therefore they doesn't have a good overhead obstruction clearance because vertical position of vessels varies on time by tidal. As a result, it is occurred maritime accidents that the mainmast of vessels is bumped against overhead facilities. And disaster by global warming and rising sea levels have increased casualties. So we feel keenly the necessity of warning system for not an earthquake but disaster wave such a tsunami. This paper analyzes a precise GPS ephemeris for maritime precise positioning to solve these problems. The precise GPS ephemeris provided by International GNSS service gives a difficulty to real-time application because of its sample interval. This paper proposes an effective interpolation method for real-time application, and it analyzes an accuracy of precise GPS ephemeris through an interpolation method.

Nowadays, Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS) which is the new concept of positioning system has been developed because of satisfaction human's intelligent desire and rapid science development. GNSS which is represented by GPS provides 3-Dimension positioning information not expensively in whenever, wherever. The industry of positioning information has extending civil market widely as well as military market. So GNSS is running the role of society infra structure including car and airborne navigation, civil engineering, GIS resource, telematics and LBS, and so on. As USA removes the SA(Selective Availability), GPS has monopolizing the market and other countries have been depended on GPS, absolutely. In this paper, the author developed the software for analysis of influence using next generation, Galileo system. The local analysis was performed according to positioning mode. And GPS/Galileo combined system can implement positioning in the worst mask environment like urban cannon.

In order to prepare for recapitalization of differential GNSS (DGNSS) reference station and integrity monitor (RSIM) due to GNSS diversification, this paper focuses on differential correction algorithm using GPS/Galileo pesudorange. The technical standards on operation and broadcast of DGNSS RSIM are described as operation of differential GPS (DGPS) RSIM for conversion of DGNSS RSIM. Usually, in order to get the differential corrections of GNSS pesudorange, the system must know the real positions of satellites and user. Therefore, for calculating the position of Galileo satellites correctly, using the equation for calculating the SV position in Galileo ICD (Interface Control Document), it estimates the SV position based on Ephemeris data obtained from user receiver, and calculates the clock offset of satellite and user receiver, system time offset between GPS and Galileo, then determines the pseudorange corrections of GPS/Galileo. Based on a platform for performance verification connected with GPS/Galileo integrated signal simulator, it compared the PRC (pseudorange correction) errors of GPS and Galileo, analyzed the position errors of DGPS, DGalileo, and DGPS/DGalileo respectively. The proposed method was evaluated according to PRC errors and position accuracy at the simulation platform. When using the DGPS/DGalileo corrections, this paper could confirm that the results met the performance requirements of the RTCM.

QZSS (Quasi-Zenith Satellite System) provides the CLAS (Centimeter Level Augmentation Service) through the satellite's L6 band. CLAS provides correction messages called C-SSR (Compact - State Space Representation) for GPS (Global Positioning System), Galileo and QZSS. In this study, CLAS messages were received by using the AsteRx4 of Septentrio which is a GPS receiver capable of receiving L6 bands, and the messages were decoded to acquire C-SSR. In addition, Multi-GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Code-PPP (Precise Point Positioning) was developed to compensate for GNSS errors by using C-SSR to pseudo-range measurements of GPS, Galileo and QZSS. And non-linear least squares estimation was used to estimate the three-dimensional position of the receiver and the receiver time errors of the GNSS constellations. To evaluate the accuracy of the algorithms developed, static positioning was performed on TSK2 (Tsukuba), one of the IGS (International GNSS Service) sites, and kinematic positioning was performed while driving around the Ina River in Kawanishi. As a result, for the static positioning, the mean RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) for all data sets was 0.35 m in the horizontal direction ad 0.57 m in the vertical direction. And for the kinematic positioning, the accuracy was approximately 0.82 m in horizontal direction and 3.56 m in vertical direction compared o the RTK-FIX values of VRS.

SBAS(Satellite Based Augmentation System) provides GNSS satellite orbit and clock corrections for positioning accuracy improvement of GNSS users. In this paper, the accuracy of SBAS satellite orbit and clock corrections were analyzed by comparing with the IGS(International GNSS Service) precise ephemeris. The GPS antenna phase center offsets and the P1-C1 bias are considered for the analysis. The correction data of the US WAAS and the Japanese MSAS were analyzed. The analysis results showed that the SBAS satellite orbit and clock corrections are highly correlated. The correction data accuracy depends on the SBAS ground network size and orbit trajectories.

항법분야에 있어서 위성항법시스템의 다양한 오차를 제거한 정밀한 위치 정보를 이용하여 이동체에 활용하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 실제 환경에서 이동체를 이용한 항법실험을 수행하기 전 실제 환경과 유사한 가상의 실시간 테스트베드를 구축하여 알고리즘 테스트 및 검증 실험을 수행하려 한다. 이를 위해 이동체의 운동을 시뮬레이션하는 운동궤적제어시스템과 실제의 항법신호를 시뮬레이션하는 GNSS 시뮬레이터 사이의 시각동기화는 실시간 시뮬레이션을 구현하기 위해 필수적으로 요구된다. 동기화 되지 않은 시각정보는 이동체 운동궤적제어시스템에 의해 생성된 실제의 궤적과 GNSS 시물레이터로부터 생성된 궤적사이의 오차를 유발하여 항법수신기의 부정확한 항법신호를 유발한다. 이 연구는 GNSS 시뮬레이터를 이용한 실시간 테스트베드의 구축에 있어 필요한 이동체 운동궤적의 시각동기화 기술 개발을 목표로 한다. GNSS 시뮬레이터는 Spirent 사의 GPS 시뮬레이터가 사용되었다. 이동체의 위치, 속도, 가속도와 같은 움직임을 나타내는 운동에 관한 명령은 적용되어야 하는 정확한 시각이 함께 전송되므로, 이는 그 시각 이전에 GPS 시뮬레이터에 도달해야 한다. 따라서 1초(1 Hz) 또는 0.1초(10 Hz) 사이에 원격제어시스템과 GPS 시뮬레이터사이의 시각 동기화를 구현하였다. 시뮬레이터와의 시각정보 동기화를 위해 Amplicon사의 PCI-215 타이머카드를 이용하였고, 그 결과, 이동체 운동궤적제어시스템과 시뮬레이터의 시각정보를 $10^{-3}$ 내의 위치오차를 가지는 정밀도로 동기화됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we introduce a method of predicting time offset by applying LSTM, a deep learning model, to a precision time comparison technique based on measurement data extracted from code signals transmitted from GPS satellites to determine Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). First, we introduce a process of extracting time information from code signals received from a GPS satellite on a daily basis and constructing a daily time offset into one time series data. To apply the deep learning model to the constructed time offset time series data, LSTM, one of the recurrent neural networks, was applied to predict the time offset of a GPS satellite. Through this study, the possibility of time offset prediction by applying deep learning in the field of GNSS precise time transfer was confirmed.
