APPARATUS FOR POSITIONING AND METHOD USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: A location measuring device and method are provided to accurately measure the current location of a wireless communication unit by referring to the location of wireless IP network access points employing GPS using a navigation installed in a vehicle. CONSTITUTION: A location measuring device comprises a navigation unit(210) and a wireless communication unit(320). The navigation unit creates reference location data of wireless IP network access points using satellite-based location information of a satellite and reference data obtained from waves received from the wireless IP network access points during movement. The wireless communication unit measures the current location through trigonometry or inverse trigonometry based on the reference location information.
