초록

무인항공기의 비행조종컴퓨터는 비행 안전에 필수적인 장비로써 개발 단계에서부터 신뢰성과 안전성의 확보가 필수적이며, 고장 발생 시에도 정상적으로 기능을 수행할 수 있는 다중화 기반의 고장관리 설계가 요구된다. 무인기의 경우에는 비용, 무게, 전력소모 등을 감소하기 위하여 비행조종시스템의 이중화 설계를 고려하지만, 고장관리를 위한 고장 검출 및 분리 설계에 많은 제약이 있다. 본 논문에서는 무인기용 이중화 비행조종컴퓨터의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위한 고장 검출 및 고장 분리를 위한 고장관리 설계 방안을 제안한다. 그리고 고장관리 설계를 적용해 개발한 비행조종컴퓨터는 통합시험환경에서 기능 시험을 수행하고 HILS 환경에서 고장 영향성 확인 시험을 수행한 후 무인기에 탑재하여 비행시험을 통해 그 신뢰성을 검증하였다.

Since the flight control computer of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is a flight critical equipment, it is necessary to ensure reliability and safety from the development step, and a redundancy-based fault management design is required in order to operate normally even a failure occurs. To reduce cost, weight and power consumption, the dual-redundant flight control system design is considered in UAV. However, there are various restrictions on the fault management design. In this paper, we propose the fault detection and isolation designs for the dual-redundant flight control computer to satisfy the safety requirements of an UAV. In addition, the flight control computer developed by applying the fault management design performed functional tests in the integrated test environment, and after performing FMET in the HILS, its reliability was verified through flight tests.
