  • In this paper, we propose an unambiguous correlation function to improve tracking performance for binary offset carrier (BOC) signals. Specifically, we divide a BOC sub-carrier into multiple rectangular pulses, and analyze that the BOC autocorrelation function is made up of the sum of several partial correlation functions. Then, we obtain two sub-correlation functions by combining two partial correlation functions and propose a novel unambiguous correlation function with no side-peak which can be regulated its width based on the combination of the sub-correlation functions and partial correlation functions. From numerical results, it is confirmed that the proposed correlation function provides a tracking performance improvement over the conventional correlation functions in terms of the tracking error standard deviation.

  • In this paper, We analysed the technical characteristics of a automatic identification system that will introduce in aviation and marine radio stations. IMO's Marine Safety Committee approved revision of chapter V of the Safety of Life at Sea(SOLAS) Convention in 73rd meeting. According to this, AIS will become a mandatory carriage requirement by 01 July 2002. AIS as a surveillance system continuously receives its own position from the GNSS and then repeatedly broadcasts it on a VHF data link for avoiding traffic conflicts and possible disasters. VHF data link is organized so that a specified number of time slots make up a repeatable frame. Each radio station can autonomously allocate and deallocate slots within the frame using selection algorithm which is called SOTDMA(Self-Organized Time Division Multiple Access). The results can be an aid in the continued of understanding technical characteristics for AIS as a broad surveillance system.

  • This paper describes the design and analysis of five-element planar array antenna of an anti-jamming satellite navigation system. We propose a design of multi-layer patch antenna for Global Positioning System(GPS) $L_1/L_2$ dual bands. The proposed antenna has two ports feeding network with a hybrid chip coupler for a broad bandwidth with Right-Handed Circular Polarization(RHCP). The measurement results show the bore-sight gains of 1.10 dBic($L_1$) and 0.37 dBic($L_2$) for the center element. The bore-sight gains of an edge element are 0.99 dBic($L_1$) and -0.57 dBic($L_2$). At a fixed elevation angle of $30^{\circ}$, antennas show average gains of -2.08 dBic ($L_1$) and -5.33 dBic($L_2$) for the center element, and average gains of -0.40 dBic($L_1$) and -2.09 dBic($L_2$) for the edge elements. The results demonstrate that the proposed array antenna is suitable for anti-jamming applications.

  • In recent years, Transport Demand Management has been conducted for the efficient management of transport. In ITS applications in particular, the prerequisite is accurate and reliable positioning. However, the major problems are satellite signal outage, and multipath. This paper proposes that outage and multipath measurement can be detected and estimated using elevation angle and signal to noise ratio data association relation in stand-alone GPS. In order to verify the performance of the proposed method, it is then evaluated by the car test. the evaluation test environment has low accuracy and unreliable positioning because of signal outage or multipath such as steep hill and high buildings. In the evaluation test result, 918times abnormal signal occurred and it was confirmed that the proposed method showed more improved 9.48m(RMS) horizontal positioning error than without proposed method.

  • Space geodetic techniques can be used to obtain precise shape and rotation information of the Earth. To achieve this, the representative combination solution of each space geodetic technique has to be produced, and then those solutions need to be combined. In this study, the representative combination solution of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI), which is one of the space geodetic techniques, was produced, and the variations in the position coordinate of each station during 7 years were analyzed. Products from five analysis centers of the International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry (IVS) were used as the input data, and Bernese 5.0, which is the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data processing software, was used. The analysis of the coordinate time series for the 43 VLBI stations indicated that the latitude component error was about 15.6 mm, the longitude component error was about 37.7 mm, and the height component error was about 30.9 mm, with respect to the reference frame, International Terrestrial Reference Frame 2008 (ITRF2008). The velocity vector of the 42 stations excluding the YEBES station showed a magnitude difference of 7.3 mm/yr (30.2%) and a direction difference of $13.8^{\circ}$ (3.8%), with respect to ITRF2008. Among these, the 10 stations in Europe showed a magnitude difference of 7.8 mm/yr (30.3%) and a direction difference of $3.7^{\circ}$ (1.0%), while the 14 stations in North America showed a magnitude difference of 2.7 mm/yr (15.8%) and a direction difference of $10.3^{\circ}$ (2.9%).

  • Very decisive progress was made in advancing fundamental POL-IN-SAR theory and algorithm development during the past decade. This was accomplished with the aid of airborne & shuttle platforms supporting single -to-multi-band multi-modal POL-SAR and also some POL-IN-SAR sensor systems, which will be compared and assessed with the aim of establishing the hitherto not completed but required missions such as tomographic and holographic imaging. Because the operation of airborne test-beds is extremely expensive, aircraft platforms are not suited for routine monitoring missions which is better accomplished with the use drones or UAVs. Such unmanned aerial vehicles were developed for defense applications, however lacking the sophistic ation of implementing advanced forefront POL-IN-SAR technology. This shortcoming will be thoroughly scrutinized resulting in the finding that we do now need to develop most rapidly POL-IN-SAR drone-platform technology especially for environmental stress-change monitoring with a great variance of applications beginning with flood, bush/forest-fire to tectonic-stress (earth-quake to volcanic eruptions) for real-short-time hazard mitigation. However, for routine global monitoring purposes of the terrestrial covers neither airborne sensor implementation - aircraft and/or drones - are sufficient; and there -fore multi-modal and multi-band space-borne POL-IN-SAR space-shuttle and satellite sensor technology needs to be further advanced at a much more rapid phase. The existing ENVISAT with the forthcoming ALOSPALSAR, RADARSAT-2, and the TERRASAT will be compared, demonstrating that at this phase of development the fully polarimetric and polarimetric-interferometric modes of operation must be viewed and treated as preliminary algorithm verification support modes and at this phase of development are still not to be viewed as routine modes.

  • 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.

  • In order to effectively maintain and manage river facilities, on going data collection of associated objects is important. However, the existing data acquisition methods of using a total station, a global navigation satellite system, or a terrestrial laser scanner have limitations in terms of cost/time/manpower when acquiring spatial information data on river facilities distributed over a wide and long area, unlike general facilities. In contrast, a mobile mapping system (MMS), which acquires data while moving its platform, acquires precise spatial information data for a large area in a short time, so it is suitable for use in the maintenance of linear facilities around rivers. As a result of applying a MMS to a research area of 4 km, 184,646,099 points were acquired during a 20-minute data acquisition period, and 378 cross-sections were extracted. By comparing this with computer-drawn river plans, it was confirmed that efficient levee management using a MMS is possible.

  • In The process from design to construction in the existing construction work was less efficient due to the contradictory approach of identifying the 3D state in the plan view and the repeated generation of surveys, floor plans, drawings. Accurate 3D design data is essential for smart construction. However, most of the existing related studies have focused on explaining the development method and main functions of equipment or improving the productivity of smart construction. Therefore, in this study, the utility of 3D design model generation for smart construction and construction survey using 3D laser scanner was evaluated. Plane and vertical road alignment were created using the specifications of the road. The generated road alignment was created as a three-dimensional corridor design using cross-sections at intervals of 20m. In addition, it was possible to create a DTM (Digital Terrain Model) using a digital map and effectively create a 3D design model for the study area through overlapping. Construction survey using a 3D laser scanner showed accuracy within 10cm as a result of the accuracy evaluation. These results proved that construction surveying using a 3D laser scanner is possible because it satisfies the acceptable accuracy of the relevant regulations modeling of target areas using 3D design and construction survey using 3D laser scanner can be a way to address shortcomings of existing GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) methods. And accurate 3D data will be used as essential data as basic data for smart construction.
