This paper addresses on the International technical trends, standards, and development status of terrestrial radionavigation system to provide more accurate and fail-safe Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) Information available in maritime navigation environment. We analyze the performance result of pilot service in enhanced Long range navigation (eLoran) testbed environment using Low Frequency (LF) signal, and describe the development status of Ranging-Mode (R-Mode) system using Medium Frequency (MF) and Very High Frequency (VHF) to meet the Harbor Entrances and Approaches (HEA) requirement of International Maritime Organization (IMO) within 10m position accuracy. Furthermore, we present an architecture for integrated service of satellite-terrestrial navigation system and future maritime applicable fields. As the core information infrastructure of future navigation for 4th industrial revolution, this paper will be contributed to determining the direction of present and future to provide fail-safe PNT service with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) based on the technical enhancement of terrestrial integrated navigation system.

For a relatively small country like Korea, a radionavigation system using airships can be considered, which is to provide the navigation service utilizing the stratospheric airships that are deployed in the stratosphere at the altitude of around 20-23km, and which is an independent or a back-up radionavigation system other than current GPS or GLONASS. In this paper, a feasibility study on the constellation of stratospheric airships for the navigation system has been performed. A measure of a geometrical condition between a receiver and navigation transmitters. called the DOP (Dilution of Precision), determines the resulting positioning error of the navigation system, if the error of range measurement is predictable. Therefore, with assumption that the range measurement error of the stratospheric airship navigation system is quite similar to GPS. the several DOP values have been used to evaluate the performance of the navigation system with comparing with the DOP values of GPS as the reference values. To provide the position information of the navigation transmitters to users, a receiver cluster system fixed on the ground, called an IGPS (inverted GPS), is proposed, and the error is also evaluated using the DOP values. Five areas around five major cities in South Korea have been selected, and then by numerical simulations the DOP values are compared those of GPS to assess the performance of the proposed navigation system using stratospheric airships. The possible frequency bands have been proposed. and then link budget of the navigation transmitter has been analyzed for the proposed navigation system.

미국의 전파항법정책(FRP Federal Radionavigation Plan)은 여전히 SA정책(미국방성에서 GPS 위성 궤도에 오차를 실어 전파발사를 하는 정책)을 유지하고 있고, P(Y)코드 접속에 의한 고정밀 위치정보 사용 역시 미군 및 NATO군 등 미 국방성에서 인가한 사용자에게만 허용되고 있는 관계로 그 외의 사용자는 3차원 고정밀 위치정보가 요구되는 항공기 이착륙 유도시스템, 해ㆍ육상 정밀 구조/탐색 및 육ㆍ해ㆍ공 특수목적 등에 군사용 P(Y)코드대신 DGPS를 사용하고 있다. 본 연구는 한반도 남해안 및 동해안 일부까지를 유효거리로 하고 있는 일본 Marine Radiobeaeon/DGPS 시스템에 대한 한반도 연근해에서의 위치정보 사용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 한반도 남해안에서 측정 가능한 일본 DGPS국을 선택 모델로 하여 DGPS Data 측정실험 및 위치정보 정밀도 분석을 하였다. 연구결과 군사용 P(Y) 코드수준의 정밀도를 유지하고 있어 곧 구축 예정인 한국형 DGPS 국가망과 함께 선택적으로 사용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

극동지역에서 Loran-C 국제협력 체인의 구성에 따란 한국, 중국, 러시아 3개국에 상호호혜원칙에 따라 이용범위의 증대 및 전파표지의 연구 발전을 도모하는 등 전파표지분야의 협력과 발전을 위하여 협정서에 명시된 정책수행과 협정 체약국간 활동을 조정하는 역할을 하며 초기('92.9.7)에는 기관간의 협정으로 시작하였으나 '00.12.22에 정부간 협정으로 변경되어 그동안 Loran-C 국제 협력체인을 구성하는 한편 전파표지에 관한 정보 교환 및 운영절차 마련 등으로 해상교통안전에 크게 기여하고 있다. 최근 해사안전정보(MSI) 제공과 GNSS 전파간섭에 대비한 위치정보 제공에 관한 관심이 대두되면서 향후 FENRS에서 협력하고 발전해나갈 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

AIS(Automatic Identification System) is a radionavigation equipment for exchanging safety related information between ships as well as ship and shore station, introduced by SOLAS convention and widely used especially in vessel traffic service. However, in an area of broad communication coverage of coast station, various problems may appear in receiving AIS data from ships. In this paper, AIS problems that may happen in broad communication coverage of coast station are analyzed using received data.

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles plays specific role in underwater investigation. Generally, this kind of vehicles will move along a planned path for sea bottom or underwater installations inspections, search for mineral deposits along shelves, seeking lost items including bottom mines or for hydrographic measurements. A crucial barrier for it remains the possibility of precise determination of their underwater position. Commonly used radionavigation systems do not work in such circumstances or do not guarantee the required accuracies. In the paper some new solution is proposed on the assumption that it is possible to increase the precision by certain processing of a combination of measurements conducted by means of different techniques. Objective of the paper is the idea of navigation of AUV which consists of two phases: firstly a trip of AUV along pre-planned route and after that postprocessed transformation of collected data in post-processing mode. During the processing of collected data the modern adjustment methods have been applied, mainly estimation by means of least squares and M-estimation. Application of these methods should be associated with the measuring and geometric conditions of navigational tasks and thus suited for specific scientific and technical problems of underwater navigation. The first results of computer aided investigation will be presented and the basic scope of these application and possible development directions will be indicated also. The paper is prepared as an partial results of the works carried out within a framework of the research Project: 'Improvement of the Precise Underwater Vehicle Navigation Methods' financed by the Polish Ministry of Education and Science (No 0 T00A 012 25).

AIS(Automatic Identification System) is a radionavigation equipment for exchanging safety related information between ships as well as ship and shore station, introduced by SOLAS convention and widely used especially in vessel traffic service. The dynamic data of AIS is transmitted at intervals of 2 second to 3 minutes depending on ship's navigational status and speed. However, so often times it happens that some AIS data can not be received due to increasing AIS traffic and it's time slot confliction. In this paper, a revised reporting intervals of AIS dynamic data is proposed in order to decrease AIS data link load.

The development motive and maintenance of navigation system were military strategy purpose since middle of 20th century. During cold war period between the United States and the Soviet since the Second World War, advanced navigation system that two countries are responded individually have done development competitively. These systems are exhibited on general except military purpose gradually and are taking charge of point role in economy transport activity such as transportation of logistics between the country. Navigation system can divide into ground system and satellite system. Representative system of ground system is Loran-C(Long Range Navigation), and representative system of satellite system is GPS(Global Position System). Loran-C system is a system that use much in all the world country sea and ground, but GPS and DGPS that present is a satellite navigation system are used much. According to development of satellite system, examine about actual conditions of Loran-C navigation system and practical use plan in this paper because there is controversy about role of Loran-C navigation device along with Loran-C's operation and user decrease, and discusses for Loran-C's development direction.

With the advent of Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems(ECDIS) and Automatic Identification Systems (AIS) as the principal navigation equipment of E-navigation strategy, mariners will begin to practice "e-navigation" and increasingly rely upon these systems to navigate safely and efficiently. However, these electronic systems require "e-inputs" in order to function. At present, the choices for e-input are limited, and they are installation dependent. This means that the mariner must be suitably equipped in order to use an alternative e-input. If the primary e-input is lost, and the vessel is not equipped to make use of suitable alternative e-inputs, then continued operations will have to be done the "old fashioned way" using conventional navigation The final objective is a recommendation of dual harbor positioning system on the most appropriate mix of positioning systems to satisfy the marine needs for radionavigation, positioning services.
