Abstract

An attack aircraft such as a fighter needs an accurate location information of a target for the exact air-to-air or air-to-ground attack. In this paper a method is proposed that generates a location information of an air-to-ground target just in use of HMD without the target tracking sensors such as the radar and the FLIR. HMD is an embedded device to induce the seeker header to indicate the direction of a pilot's head. As a simulation result, it is founded that the target location information is able to be generated with a high degree of precision by using of HMD as a passive sensor.

무장 전투기와 같은 공격용 항공기는 정밀한 공대공 또는 공대지 공격을 위해 표적의 정확한 위치 정보를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 레이더나 FLIR과 같은 표적추적센서 없이 공대공 유도탄의 seeker head를 조종사의 머리가 가리키는 방향으로 유도하는 장비인 HMD만을 사용하여 공대지 표적의 위치정보를 획득하는 방법을 제시한다. 시뮬레이션 실험을 행한 결과 HMD를 수동 센서로 사용할 경우 다른 표적추적센서와의 연동 없이 HMD 만으로도 높은 정밀도의 표적 위치 정보를 획득할 수 있음을 발견하였다.
