Abstract

Flight data recorder (FDR) for accident investigation is required to comply with EUROCAE(ED-112) standard so that flight data can be restored when exposed to extreme conditions due to aircraft crash. Since the ED-112 standard defines the general requirements for all aircraft, it is essential to analyze detailed requirements for FDR software to apply appropriate requirements selectively according to the configuration and operation concept of a specific aircraft. In this paper, the software requirements applicable to unmanned aircraft will be analyzed and the FDR software design will be proposed. Also, a software verification method for each requirement will be presented to verify that the implemented software is designed to satisfy all requirements.

무인항공기 사고 발생 시 사후 조사를 위한 비행자료 기록장치는 항공기 추락에 따른 극한환경에 노출된 후 비행자료를 정상 복원할 수 있도록 EUROCAE(European Organization for Civil Aviation Equipment)의 ED-112 규격을 준수하여야 한다. ED-112 규격은 유인항공기를 포함한 모든 항공기의 일반적인 요구사항을 규정하고 있기 때문에 특정 플랫폼의 형상 및 운용개념에 따라 적합한 설계 요구사항을 선택적으로 적용하여야 하므로 소프트웨어에 대한 세부 요구사항 분석이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 무인항공기에 적합한 소프트웨어 요구사항을 분석하고 이를 고려한 비행자료 기록장치 소프트웨어의 설계 방안을 제안한다. 또한 구현된 소프트웨어가 모든 요구사항을 고려하여 설계되었는지 확인하기 위한 각 요구사항에 대한 소프트웨어 검증 방안을 제시한다.
