초록

고정익 모선과 자선의 공중에서의 분리-재결합 상황에 대한 실제 비행시험 이전에 시뮬레이션을 통해 자선의 비행제어 시스템을 검증할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 X-Plane의 후류 기능을 기반으로 연구실 환경에서 자선의 비행제어 시스템 개발을 위한 시뮬레이션 환경을 구축하였다. 이를 위해 자선의 공력해석을 수행하고 Simulink를 사용하여 항공기를 모사하였으며, X-Plane을 활용하여 시각화와 바람, 돌풍, 모선의 이동을 구현하였다. 유도제어 알고리즘을 Simulink 내 자선 모델에 적용하여 모의 근접비행을 수행함으로써 구축된 시뮬레이션 환경을 검증하였다. 또한 비행 결과를 통해 자선이 모선 후방에서 안전하게 비행할 수 있는 영역을 확인하였다.

Prior to the actual flight test of the separation-reintegration situation of fixed-wing mother and child UAVs in the air, it is necessary to verify the flight control system of child UAV through simulations. In this paper, we build a simulation environment for the development of a child UAV flight control system in a lab environment based on the wake turbulence of X-Plane. To this end, the aerodynamics analysis of child UAV was performed, and Simulink was used to simulate aircraft, and X-Plane was utilized to implement visualization, wind, gusts, and mother UAV movements. The simulation environment built by performing simulated proximity flights was verified by applying the guidance and control algorithm to the child UAV model within Simulink. Furthermore, the flight results confirm the area in which the child UAV can safely fly from the rear of the mother UAV.
