Abstract

Flight control computer of tiltrotor UAV was designed by redundancy system with primary and secondary channels to improve reliability. The redundancy functions consist of channel switching and data recovery. The channel switching function consists of software method by using cross channel data link and hardware method by using watchdog timer. The data recovery is the function to maintain flight condition when the flight control computer is restarted exceptionally in operation. The redundancy system was verified by flight control computer bench test, system integration test and HILS test. This paper describes the redundancy function of tiltrotor UAV flight control computer and test-verification method.

틸트로터 무인기의 비행제어컴퓨터는 신뢰도 향상을 위하여 주 채널과 보조 채널을 갖는 이중화 시스템으로 설계되었다. 이중화 기능은 채널 전환과 데이터 복원으로 구성된다. 채널 전환 기능은 교차채널 데이터링크를 이용한 소프트웨어 방식과 워치독 타이머를 이용한 하드웨어 방식으로 구성되었다. 데이터 복원 기능은 운용 중 비행제어컴퓨터가 비정상적으로 재시작 되었을 때 비행 상태를 유지하기 위한 기능이다. 이중화 기능은 비행제어컴퓨터 벤치 시험, 체계 통합 시험 그리고 HILS 시험을 통해 검증되었다. 본 논문에서는 틸트로터 무인기 비행제어컴퓨터에 구현된 이중화 기능과 시험-검증 방법에 대해서 기술하였다.
