English to Korean: How high precision GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) enables new automotive applications
General field: Tech/Engineering
Detailed field: IT (Information Technology)
Source text - English
In the center of this system, we have a high precision correction server. And there are three basic mechanisms in which this information is brought to the car. One via satellites; two via an internet connection or the 5G, LTE internet connection;
and thirdly, via a 5G system broadcast via possibly, where we can address many, many vehicles at one time. So looking into high precision testing considerations, there are maybe five points that I would like to bring to your attention here. The first of those points today is, we need to be able to test a GNSS receiver in a reproducible, uncontrollable environment. Secondly, as Jose Luis was mentioning, we need the ability to be able to inject errors into the system. So for example, ionospheric errors might not be in a location on a certain day, if you can... And your testing, maybe, it is not so efficient. If you can inject those errors in a controllable manner into the system, you can do things much more efficiently. And we also have the ability that we need to be able to test as a black box or as a system. So, for example, a full vehicle in an automotive chamber, we want to be able to inject these into the system. The fourth point is the possibility, sometimes, to test with the correction data from a live network with a live GNSS. We need to be able to do. And we need to be able to reduce the amount of time and resources spent on using on testing this. And these are maybe five points that I think are very, very important. So what I'd like to do now is, I'd like to give you an overview of some of the different testing applications for high precision GNSS. So if we look at the slide on the left hand side, we see a signal generator generating high precision correction data. And this is typically what you do if you're doing GNSS receiver testing or modules in a lab. And the tier one or tier two or a silicon vendor might be very interested in that type of testing.
The second type of testing is when we have an ECU or a TCU, a telematics control unit and/or a full vehicle, where you want to simulate the GNSS system, but also the delivery of the data over the 5G network. The third type of test system where you might want to do is, again, on the OEM context or tier one context, where you're taking the satellite feed into a chamber or a hole, and you want to do a functional smoke test to see if everything is working before you release the software. And so there's different configurations you can use to connect these up to save time and provide more efficient reproducible testing. So, finally, I'd like to give you a quick summary and conclusion of three things we've learned today. So the first topic which I'd like to bring up would be high precision GNSSs positions based on RTK PPP can achieve the requirements for the automotive industry. The second point there is a four key pillars, high precision, global availability, integrity and continuity of service. And the third point is testing in a controlled and reproducible environment is important to accelerate the development and testing of high precision GNSS.

이 시스템 중앙에는 고정밀 보정 서버가 있죠. 차량으로 정보가 전달되는 기본적인 메커니즘이 세 가지가 있습니다. 첫 번째는 위성을 통해서, 두 번째는 5G, LTE 인터넷 연결 같은 인터넷 연결을 통해서, 세 번째는 5G 시스템 방송을 통해서입니다. 아마도 한 번에 수많은 차량을 처리할 수 있을 겁니다. 그럼 고정밀 테스트시 고려해야 할 사항을 자세히 살펴보죠. 여러분에게 알려 드리고 싶은 핵심 포인트 5가지가 있습니다. 그 중 첫 번째는 재연할 수 있고 통제하기 어려운 환경에서 GNSS 수신기를 테스트할 수 있어야 한다는 것입니다. 두 번째는, 호세 루이스가 얘기한 것처럼, 오차를 시스템에 투입할 수 있어야 한다는 것입니다. 예를 들어서, 전리층 오차가 특정 날에는 그 장소에 없을지도 모릅니다. 어쩌면 테스트가 효율적이지 않을 수도 있죠. 그 오차들을 통제가 가능한 방식으로 시스템에 삽입할 수 있게 되면 훨씬 더 효율적일 것입니다. 또한 블랙박스나 시스템으로 테스트할 수 있어야 합니다. 예를 들어, 자동차 체임버의 전 차량에서 오차들을 시스템에 삽입할 수 있어야 합니다. 네 번째는 때때로 라이브 네트워크와 라이브 GNSS에서 얻은 보정 데이터를 가지고 테스트할 수 있는 가능성입니다. 꼭 필요하죠. 또한 테스트하는 데에 쓰이는 시간과 자원의 양을 줄일 수 있어야 합니다. 여기까지가 제가 생각하기에 아주아주 중요한 5가지 핵심 포인트입니다. 이제 몇몇 고정밀 GNSS 테스트 소프트웨어들에 대한 개괄적인 설명해 드리고자 합니다. 슬라이드 왼쪽을 보시면 고정밀 보정 데이터를 만드는 신호 발생기가 있습니다. 일반적으로 연구실에서 하는 GNSS 수신기 테스트나 모듈에 필요하죠. 1차 벤더나 2차 벤터, 실리콘 벤더에서 이런 유형의 테스트에 큰 관심을 가질지도 모릅니다. 두 번째 유형은 ECU나 TCU, 차량용 통신 장비와, 혹은 전 차량에서 하는 테스트입니다. GNSS 시스템을 모의 체험하는 것뿐만 아니라 5G 네트워크에서 데이터 전달도 할 수 있죠. 세 번째 테스트 시스템 유형은, 여러분이 하고 싶어하시는 테스트일지도 모르겠네요. OEM이나 1차 벤더 환경에서 하는 테스트입니다. 위성 방송을 챔버나 홀에 넣을 것입니다. 기능적인 스모크 테스트를 하면 제대로 작동하는지를 소프트웨어 출시 전에 확인할 수 있습니다. 사용 가능한 기기 구성이 다르고 이것들을 연결해서 시간을 절약하고 더 효율적인 재현 가능 테스트를 제공할 수 있습니다. 마지막으로 오늘 배운 세 가지 요약과 결론에 대해 빠르게 말씀드리겠습니다. 첫 번째는 RTK-PPP 기반 고정밀 GNSS 위치 측정값으로 차량 산업에서 필요한 조건들을 얻을 수 있다는 것입니다. 두 번째는, 4가지 핵심인 고정밀, 범지구적 가용성, 무결성과 서비스의 연속성입니다. 세 번째로, 통제되고 재연할 수 있는 환경에서 하는 테스트가 중요하며, 이것이 고정밀 GNSS의 발전과 테스트를 촉진한다는 것입니다.
