  • Developed safety system which transfers danger information to rear cars for accident prevention when drivers detect a accident, a dropping or a freezing during driving on the high way. To prevent an accident, each vehicles mount OBU which is made up of a GPS unit and a transmitter-receiver and the trace of road is always renewed and saved in OBU per a regular past distance. When the driver see dangerous situation, transfer a danger pattern and a trace information by pressing button. All cars which receive information compare the received data with the original data. And then, only cars which are located at the rear in a regular distance respond and occur a warning. Performed a road test at the rate of $30{\sim}50$ kilometer a hour using two test cars which saved about 120meter's space between them were mounted OBU which had 447Mhz transceiver. As a result of the experiment, communication between test cars had no problem. Accordingly, it can use a safety driving device because driver can notice a danger situation and set themselves ready for it using this system in advance.

  • The drastic growth of mobile communication and spreading of smart phone make the significant attention on Location Based Service. The one of most important things for vitalizations of LBS is the accurate estimating position for mobile object. Focusing on an image sensor deployed in smart phone, we develop a LED based positioning estimation framework. The developed approaches can strengthen the advantages of independent indoor applicability of LED. The estimation of LED based positioning is effectively applied to any indoor environment. We put a focus especially on the algorithmic framework. of image processing of smart phone. From LED lighting, we can obtain a typical signal image which contains the unique positioning information. Furthermore test-bed based on smart phone platform is practically developed and all data have been harvested from the actual measurement of test indoor area. This can approve the practical usefulness of proposed framework.

  • Since 1993, the civil aviation community through RTCA (Radio Technical Commission for Aeronautics) and the ICAO (International Civil Air Navigation Organization) have been working on the definition of GNSS augmentation systems that will provide improved levels of accuracy and integrity. These augmentation systems have been classified into three distinct groups: Aircraft Based Augmentation Systems (ABAS), Space Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) and Ground Based Augmentation Systems (GBAS). The last one is an implemented system to support Air Navigation in CAT-I approaching operation. It consists of three primary subsystems: the GNSS Satellite subsystem that produces the ranging signals and navigation messages; the GBAS ground subsystem, which uses two or more GNSS receivers. It collects pseudo ranges for all GNSS satellites in view and computes and broadcasts differential corrections and integrity-related information; the Aircraft subsystem. Within the area of coverage of the ground station, aircraft subsystems may use the broadcast corrections to compute their own measurements in line with the differential principle. After selection of the desired FAS for the landing runway, the differentially corrected position is used to generate navigation guidance signals. Those are lateral and vertical deviations as well as distance to the threshold crossing point of the selected FAS and integrity flags. The Department of Applied Science in Naples has create for its study a virtual GBAS Ground station. Starting from three GPS double frequency receivers, we collect data of 24h measures session and in post processing we generate the GC (GBAS Correction). For this goal we use the software Pegasus V4.1 developed from EUROCONTROL. Generating the GC we have the possibility to study and monitor GBAS performance and integrity starting from a virtual functional architecture. The latter allows us to collect data without the necessity to found us authorization for the access to restricted area in airport where there is one GBAS installation.

  • The objective on this project is to develop a cooperative Field Robot (FR), by using a customize Open Control Platform (OCP) as design and development process. An OCP is a CORBA-based solution for networked control system, which facilitates the transitioning of control designs to embedded targets. In order to achieve the cooperation surveillance system, two FRs are distributed by navigation messages (GPS and sensor data) using CORBA event-channel communication, while graphical information from IR night vision camera is distributed using CORBA Asynchronous Method Invocation (AMI). The QoS features of AMI in the network are to provide the additional delivery method for distributing an IR camera Images will be evaluate in this experiment. In this paper also presents an empirical performance evaluation from the variable chunk sizes were compared with the number of clients and message latency, some of the measurement data's are summarized in the following paragraph. In the AMI buffers size measurement, when the chuck sizes were change, the message latency is significantly change according to it frame size. The smaller frame size between 256 bytes to 512 bytes is more efficient fur the message size below 2Mbytes, but it average performance in the large of message size a bigger frame size is more efficient. For the several destination, the same experiment using 512 bytes to 2 Mbytes frame with 2 to 5 destinations are presented. For the message size bigger than 2Mbytes, the AMI are still able to meet requirement far more than 5 clients simultaneously.

  • In the mid 90's, the U.S. government released images acquired by the first generation of photo reconnaissance satellite missions between 1960 and 1972. The Declassified Intelligent Satellite Photographs (DISP) from the Corona mission are of high quality with an astounding ground resolution of about 2 m. The KH-4A panoramic camera system employed a scan angle of $70^{\circ}$ that produces film strips with a dimension of $55\;mm\;{\times}\;757\;mm$. Since GPS/INS did not exist at the time of data acquisition, the exterior orientation must be established in the traditional way by using control information and the interior orientation of the camera. Detailed information about the camera is not available, however. For reconstructing points in object space from DISP imagery to an accuracy that is comparable to high resolution (a few meters), a precise camera model is essential. This paper is concerned with the derivation of a rigorous mathematical model for the KH-4A/B panoramic camera. The proposed model is compared with generic sensor models, such as affine transformation and rational functions. The paper concludes with experimental results concerning the precision of reconstructed points in object space. The rigorous mathematical panoramic camera model for the KH-4A camera system is based on extended collinearity equations assuming that the satellite trajectory during one scan is smooth and the attitude remains unchanged. As a result, the collinearity equations express the perspective center as a function of the scan time. With the known satellite velocity this will translate into a shift along-track. Therefore, the exterior orientation contains seven parameters to be estimated. The reconstruction of object points can now be performed with the exterior orientation parameters, either by intersecting bundle rays with a known surface or by using the stereoscopic KH-4A arrangement with fore and aft cameras mounted an angle of $30^{\circ}$.

  • GPS로 대표되는 위성항법시스템(GNSS : Global Navigation Satellite System)은 지구 주위를 돌면서 연속적으로 항법신호를 보내고 있다. 그 중 지구표면으로부터 반사되는 항법신호를 수신하고 해석함으로써 지구표면에 관한 정보를 취득할 수가 있다. GPS로 대표되는 항법신호는 L밴드를 사용하기 때문에 토양수분의 변화 등에 대한 반사강도의 감도가 비교적 높다고 알려져 있으며, 토양수분 측정 등에 사용할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 경량화, 소형화하기 쉬운 점, 능동적 마이크로웨이브 리모트센싱시스템(Active Microwave Remote Sensing System)과 달리 스스로 신호를 발사하지 않기 때문에 관측의 스텔스성(Stealth)dl 뛰어난 점 등의 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 향후 10년 이내에 준천정위성(QZSS), Galileo, COMPAS, IRNSS 등 많은 위성항법시스템이 본격 운용되어 GPS와 함께 120기 정도의 항법위성이 항법신호를 송신할 예정이므로 이용 가능성은 크게 늘어날 것으로 기대된다.한편, 항법위성을 이용한 바이스테이틱 리모트센싱은 반사파의 강도가 상당히 미약하기 때문에 정량적 계측모델의 구축은 미미한 상태이다. 즉, 지상 타워에서의 관측, 항공기에서의 관측, 소형 위성에서의 관측 등이 수행되고 있으나, 타워관측과 같이 지상의 거의 동일한 장소를 계속적으로 관측하는 경우를 제외한 기존의 연구에서는 토지의 피복상황이나 토양수분 등의 상관관계를 제시하는 수준으로써 정량적인 계측방법은 아직 확립되어 있지 않다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구에서는 GPS위성으로부터의 항법신호를 이용하여 지구표면에 관한 정보를 얻는 바이스테이틱 리모트센싱(Bi-static Remote Sensing) 기술을 바탕으로 육지면과 해면의 판별에 신호특성이 어떻게 유효한가를 실험적으로 밝혔다. 이러한 기술은 토양수분 측정 등 수자 원인자를 추출하는데 유용할 뿐만 아니라 수면의 고도 측정, 해상풍 산출 등에도 응용 가능하다.
