Abstract

As it takes a lot of time and money to develop an aircraft, an environment for renovating and using existing operating aircraft has been created. As a result, many old aircraft were renovated, and due to the aging of the aircraft, more demanding cable requirements were required for renovation projects, and as the number of equipment inside the aircraft gradually increased, the difficulty of system integration increased. In order to solve the difficulties of system integration through systematization of verification procedures, this paper explains VSWR, I-loss, which are the main indicators of antenna cable modification, and explains DTF, one of the problem detection methods. It also explains the elements required for cable design, the environment to be measured, and procedures, and introduces the overall process and effect of antenna cable improvement through demonstration cases.

항공기를 개발하는 데는 시간과 비용이 많이 요구됨에 따라, 기존 운용 항공기를 개조하여 사용하는 환경이 조성되었다. 이에 따라 많은 노후 항공기들의 개조사업이 진행되고 항공기의 노후로 인해 개조 사업에는 점차 더 까다로운 케이블 요구사항이 요구되었으며 여러번의 개조사업을 거침에 따라 항공기 내부의 장비 수가 점차 많아져 체계통합의 난이도가 증가하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 체계통합의 어려움을 검증 절차 체계화를 통해 해결하고자 안테나 케이블 개조를 주된 대상으로 주요 지표인 VSWR, I-loss를 설명하고, 문제 검출 방법 중 하나인 DTF를 설명한다. 그리고 케이블 설계에 필요한 요소, 측정하는 환경, 절차를 설명하고, 설계에 영향을 미치는 측정 결과를 실증 사례를 통해 안테나 케이블 개량의 전반적인 과정과 효과를 소개한다.
