Ionosphere is the largest error source on propagation of GPS signals. Dual frequency (L1,L2) GPS receiver can be effectively able to eliminate the ionosphere error by using linear combination of two frequencies, but the single frequency receiver (L1) have to compute the ionosphere error. In this research, we developed the new ionospheric model with $1^{\circ}$ by $1^{\circ}$ spatial resolution based on the grid from using 9 GPS reference stations which have been operated by KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) and computed TEC (Total Electron Contents) over South Korea by epoch. This paper gives the positioning results of Klobuchar model with that of a newly developed KASI regional ionospheric model and shows the positioning precision of the KASI regional ionospheric model along with TEC variation of ionosphere.

A wireless positioning system using ultra-wideband (UWB) for indoor wireless positioning uses ranging data in order to accurately estimate location. Commonly, ranging uses time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA) based on arrival time. The most fundamental issue in the ranging for wireless positioning is to obtain clock synchronization among the sensor nodes and to correct an error caused by the relative clock offset from each node. In this paper, we propose ranging and positioning technique using common clock in order to solve both clock synchronization and clock offset problems. To verify the performance of proposed, we simulated ranging and positioning in channel model introduced by IEEE 802.15.4a Task Group and then results show that location estimation is unaffected by clock offset.

Purpose - We perform an empirical analysis of the effects of global consumer culture positioning (GCCP) in TV advertisements on consumer's brand evaluations (perceived quality, perceived price, and brand prestige) and attitude toward brand. Also, we analyze the moderating roles of consumer characteristics (ethnocentrism and level of product knowledge) in those effects. Design/methodology - This research is based on a survey of 210 randomly-selected university students in Seoul, Korea. The participants in the survey were shown a total of 8 TV advertisements of consumer goods of nondurable goods (fast food and carbonated drinks), and durable goods (sports shoes and digital camera), which included two advertisements for each product where one uses GCCP strategy while another uses LCCP strategy. We estimate the structural model using the AMOS 18.0 computer program. Findings - We find that GCCP has more positive effects on consumers' brand evaluations and attitude toward brand than LCCP in TV advertising. We also find that GCCP has stronger effects on brand evaluation and attitude toward brand in consumers with weak ethnocentrism and in those with a low level of product knowledge. Practical implications - Using GCCP in an advertisement is an effective way of improving consumer's evaluation of the brand and attitude toward the brand mainly when cosmopolitan consumers and consumers with low knowledge levels are segmented as targets. Originality/value - The study contributes to identify how and for what consumer groups' global brand positioning strategies in TV advertisements affect consumers' brand evaluations and their attitudes toward brands.

This study attempts to integrate causal model with competitiveness evaluation model, both of which have developed independently of each other, in connection with many studies on PMES (performance measurement and evaluation system) including the BSC (balanced scorecard) of Kaplan and Norton (1992, 1996). For this attempt, this study is composed of four analyses : First, this study develops a structural model for evaluating and diagnosing corporate ‘comprehensive’ competitiveness including quality competitiveness, derive CCI (comprehensive competitiveness index) and QCI (quality competitiveness index) ; Second, this study analyzes the determinants of quality competitiveness, the impacts of quality competitiveness, on product design and product reliability, and the impacts of product design and product reliability on quality competitiveness in the comprehensive competitiveness evaluation model of this study. Third, this study empirically identifies the positioning of product design in the quality competitiveness evaluation model of this study and the functional relationship between product design and other functions : product development, manufacturing, marketing, and marketing, and sales in the same comprehensive competitiveness evaluation model, estimate the determinants of product design and its impacts, thereby providing some empirical findings for the foundation of design management theory, and Fourth, this study identifies the positioning of product reliability in the same quality competitiveness evaluation model, estimate the reliability function and the functional relationship between product reliability and other dimensions of product quality, and tests the hypotheses on the causality of product reliability.

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal gets delayed as it goes through the troposphere before reaching the GNSS antenna. Various tropospheric models are being used to correct the tropospheric delay. In this study, we compared effectiveness of two popular troposphere correction models: Global Pressure and Temperature (GPT) and Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS). One-year data from a particular site was chosen as the test case. Tropospheric delays were computed using the GPT and SBAS models and compared with the International GNSS Service tropospheric product. The bias of SBAS model computations was 3.4 cm, which is four times lower than that of the GPT model. The cause of higher biases observed in the GPT model is the fact that one cannot get wet delays from the model. If SBAS-based wet delays are added to the hydrostatic delays computed using the GPT model, then the accuracy is similar to that of the full SBAS model. From this study, one can conclude that it is better to use the SBAS model than to use the GPT model in the standard code-pseudorange data processing.

When calculating the user's position using satellite signals, the signals originating from the satellite pass through the ionosphere and troposphere to the user. In particular, the ionosphere delay error that occurs when passing through the ionosphere delays when the signal is transmitted, generating a pseudorange error and position error at a large rate. Therefore, to improve position accuracy, it is essential to correct the ionosphere layer error. In a receiver capable of receiving dual frequency, the ionosphere error can be eliminated through a double difference, but in a single frequency receiver, an ionosphere correction model transmitted from a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) satellite is used. The popularly used Klobuchar model is designed to improve performance globally. As such, it does not perform perfectly in the Korea region. In this paper, the characteristics of the delay in the ionosphere in the Korean region are identified through an analysis of 10 years of data, and an improved ionosphere correction model for the Korean region is presented using the widely employed Klobuchar model. Through the proposed model, vertical position error can be improved by up to 40% relative to the original Klobuchar model in the Korea region.

The internet has dramatically changed a way of business management and competition in the business environment. Especially, it stimulated not only to evolve online floral distribution service but also to change a phase of competition among floral retail stores in industry. And that also led to keen competition among IT service providers as well. This study is to examine how floral retail stores have been evolved and competed with the radical situation of the floral distribution industry through IT service in the aspect of business and information technology. In addition, the Typhoon Positioning Strategy(TPS), a strategy for the IT service positioning, is introduced from IT service provider's perspective. For IT service providers to create high business value and continuous service providing, IT service should be positioned on the customers' "core business" and developed to the level of "solution." The Typhoon Positioning Strategy(TPS) is a strategy for the IT service positioning, indicating that IT service should be positioned according to a Business Process-Service model with the consideration of business development direction, IT service trend, and user's IT capability. That is, IT service providers should find out customers' "core business" area first to provide a right IT service to the company, and the IT service provided should meet to the level of business solution. The capability of the IT solution users is also an important factor to be considered for the advanced IT service. There are four principles of the Typhoon Positioning Strategy(TPS). Principle 1) IT service provided should be an IT solution Map suitable for customer business processes. Principle 2) IT service provided should be able to support customer core business. Principle 3) IT service provided should be a business solution. Principle. 4) IT service provided should be applied differently according to the level of customer's IT capability.

In this paper, an efficient algorithm for recognizing and positioning occuluded objects in a two-dimensional plane is presented. Model objects and unknown input image are approximated by polygonal boundaries, which are compactly represented by shape functions of the polygons. The input image is partitioned into measningful segments whose end points are at the locations of possible occlusion - i.e. at concave vertices. Each segment is matched against known model objects by calculating a matching measure, which is defined as the minimum euclidean distance between the shape functions. An O(mm(n+m) algorithm for computing the measure is presentd, where n and m are the number of veritces for a model and an unknown object, respectively. Match results from aprtial segments are combined based on mutual compatibility, then are verified using distance transformation and translation vector to produce the final recognition. The proposed algorithm is invariant under translation and rotation of objects, which has been shown by experimental results.

A robust positioning control system has been studied using a friction parameter observer and a recurrent fuzzy neural network based on the sliding model. To estimate a nonlinear friction parameters of the LuGre friction model, a dual friction model-based observer is introduced. In addition, an approximating method for a system uncertainty has been developed using a recurrent fuzzy neural network technique to improve positioning performance. Experimental results have been presented to validate the performance of a proposed intelligent compensation scheme.
