Abstract

The utilization of agricultural drones for pest control operations has been increasing due to its economic efficiency. However, variations in the effectiveness of these operations occur depending on the operator's proficiency. In this study, we applied a smart operating mode to overcome the limitations of manual flight mode and proposed a numerical model. Through comparative validation with prior research, we conducted experimental verification. As a result, we determined the spray time and calculation of spray area for each drone model. We selected a drone for pest control with a high similarity to the numerical model and verified it experimentally. Through this, we confirmed that the application of the smart operating mode is more effective in terms of calculation of spray area and operational efficiency compared to manual flight mode.

농업용 드론을 이용한 방제 작업의 경우 그 경제적 효율성으로 인해 활용도가 증가하고 있으나, 작업자의 숙련도에 따라 효과의 차이가 발생한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 스마트 운영 모드를 적용하여, 수동 비행 모드에서 제어의 단점을 보완하고 이에 대한 수치적 모델을 제안하고, 선행 연구와 비교 검증을 통해 실험적 검증을 수행하였다. 그 결과 농업용 방제 드론들의 분사 시간 및 방제면적을 도출하였고, 수치적 모델과 유사성이 높은 방제용 드론을 선정하여 실험적으로 검증하였다. 이를 통해 수동 비행 모드보다 스마트 운영 모드 적용 시 살포 면적 및 작업(살포 균일도 및 작업 효율)이 상대적으로 효과적인 것을 확인하였다.
