Abstract

The entertainment system of the aircraft has changed its paradigm in the form of using passenger electronic devices instead of using a fixed monitor. This has simplified the on-board equipment while the risk of safety has increased with the electric charging of portable electronic devices. Unlike personal portable electronic devices that do not have a transmission function, the use of Wi-Fi enabled electronic devices(T-PED) is allowed and the battery is required to be charged in the cabin. In this study, we used the NASA Aviation Safety Reporting System to investigate the effects of changes in wireless environment and entertainment service. Based on this, we analyzed the risks of personal electronic devices by sharing event occurrence cases caused by in-flight electronic equipment or passenger portable electronic devices(especially smart phones) from the viewpoint of aircraft safety management. This analysis includes identification of potential hazards and risk assessment, and finally the strategies for risk mitigation for safe use of portable electronic devices are suggested.

항공기의 엔터테인먼트 시스템은 고정된 모니터를 사용하는 대신에 승객 개인의 휴대용 전자기기를 사용하는 형태로 그 패러다임이 바뀌었다. 이로 인해 기내 설비는 간소해진 반면 휴대용 전자기기들의 전기 충전으로 안전에 대한 리스크는 증가되었다. 송신 기능이 없는 개인 휴대전자기기와 달리 와이파이 기능이 있는 전자기기(T-PED)의 사용이 허용되고 기내에서 배터리의 충전도 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 기내 무선 환경과 엔터테인먼트 서비스의 변화에 따른 영향을 조사하기 위해 NASA 항공안전보고시스템을 이용하여 기내 전자기기 사용 관련 자료를 분석하였다. 이를 기초로 하여, 항공기 안전관리 관점에서 비행 중에 발생된 객실 전자장비나 승객 휴대용 전자기기(특히 스마트폰)로 인한 이벤트 발생 사례를 공유하여 개인용 전자기기의 위험성을 분석하였다. 이러한 분석을 위해 잠재적 위해요인의 식별과 리스크 평가 작업이 수행되었으며, 최종적으로 휴대용 전자기기의 안전한 사용을 위한 리스크 완화 전략이 제시되었다.
