Abstract
Recently, many studies for interoperability of UAV in the NAS has been performed since the application range and demand of UAV are continuously increased. For the interoperation of UAV in the NAS, technical standards and certification system for UAV which is equivalent to the commercial aircraft are required and test and evaluation methodology must be presented by standards. In this paper, qualification test and evaluation methodology aboutfor the UAV navigation system is proposed. For the research, the mission profile and operation environment of UAV were analyzed. Thereafter the test criteria were derived and the test methodology were established. Finally, the simulation and demonstration using test-bed UAV were performed. As a result of the test, it was confirmed that the navigation system of test UAV has a position accuracy about 1.4 meters at 95% confidence level in the entire flight stage.
