육상, 해양, 항공 등의 응용분야에 위성항법보강시스템의 활용을 위해서는 시스템의 정확성, 무결성, 연속성, 가용성 요구 조건을 만족하도록 설계되어야 하며, 무결성 요구 조건을 만족시키기 위하여 측위 오차 및 위협 요인들을 지상국에서 감시해야한다. 특히, 전리층 변화는 지역적으로 경향 및 세기가 달라 전리층 폭풍 발생 시 지상국과 이동체에서 받은 위성항법 신호에 포함된 전리층 지연 오차의 편차가 심하여 위성항법 사용자의 무결성, 즉 안정성이 위협을 받는 상황이 발생할 수 있으므로, 해당지역의 전리층 변화에 대한 사전 정보를 통해 지역별로 적합한 위협 모델을 구성하여 전리층 활동 감시가 필요하다. 전리층 기울기는 전리층 지연값 분포의 불균일 여부를 정량화한 값으로, 전리층 폭풍 발생시 기울기가 급증하여 전리층 폭풍 감지를 위한 지표로 활용될 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 육상 교통 위성항법보강시스템의 무결성 감시에 전리층 변화 기능을 적용하기 위한 기본 연구로 IGS에서 제공하는 전리층 보정정보를 이용하여 한반도 상공에 대한 전리층 기울기 분포 및 변화 경향을 파악하고, 이러한 분석 결과를 전리층 기울기에 대한 보정정보 오차범위 설정이나 전리층 폭풍 발생 판단에 필요한 임계값 설정 등에 적용하고자 한다.

In this paper, we studied the Bartlett method to correctly estimate the targets of a unmanned vehicles. The Bartlett method estimates the desired signals by making the gain constant for the received signal incident on the array antenna. In this paper, the weights of the Bartlett method are updated by applying the winner method and steepest descent method in order to estimation the accurate unmanned. The updated weights improve the resolution of the existing Bartlett method by applying optimal weights to all received signals received at the array antenna. Through simulation, we are comparative analysis about the performance of proposed method. From result of simulation, We showed the superior performance of the proposed method relative to the classical method, and Bartlett using steep descent method showed more superior than one using wiener method.

Unmanned aircraft system traffic management (UTM) service for the safe operation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) such as drones using commercial communication networks such as long-term evolution (LTE) and 5G in low-altitude areas of 150m or less is being studied in several countries. In this paper, whether it is possible to secure three-dimensional (3D) coverage for UTM service using the existing LTE cellular network for terrestrial usersis analyzed through simulations. The practicality in the real environment is confirmed by performing performance analysis in the actual topographical environment and the LTE base station layouts in Korea. According to the analysis results, as the altitude increases, the number of line-of-sight (LOS) interference base stations increases, resulting in a worse signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), but coverage is secured except for the limited areas within 150m. was confirmed to be possible. In addition, it is confirmed that a significant proportion of outage areas could be reduced by placing a small number of additional base stations for the outage area.

The purpose of this study is to develop unmanned equipment that can automatically move to the desired point and measure water quality at the correct depth. For this purpose, we constructed a water sampling lift and water sampling container, an unmanned vessel equipped with a VRS-GPS, an acoustic echo sounder, and a water quality sensor. Also, we developed an automatic navigation algorithm and program, an automatic water sampling program, and a water quality map generation program. As a result of the experiment in the detention pond, the unmanned vessel sailed along the planned route with an accuracy of about 93% within the error range of 3m. In addition, the water quality sensor installed in the lift was able to acquire the water quality of the target area in real time and transmit it to the server via wireless Internet, and it was possible to monitor the water quality of each site in real time. Through field experiments, the water sampling lift was able to control the desired length with an accuracy of about 94%. The stretch length accuracy experiment of the water sampling lift was impossible to measure directly in the water, so it was replaced land-based experiment. We also found some unstable problems due to the weight of the water sampling lift and the weight of the air compressor to operate the water container. Except these two problems, we accomplished purpose of this study. An automated water quality measurement method using an unmanned vessel can be used to measure the quality of water in a difficult to access area and to secure the safety of the worker.

This paper proposes an image processing algorithms for detection and tracking of aerial vehicles in short-range. Proposed algorithm detects moving objects by using image homography calculated from consecutive video frames and determines whether the detected objects are approaching aerial vehicles by the Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis Tracking method(PMHT). This algorithm can perform better than simple color-based detection methods since it can detect moving objects under complex background such as the ground seen during low altitude flight and consider the characteristics of vehicle dynamics. Furthermore, it is effective for the flight test due to the reduction of thresholding sensitivity against external factors. The performance of proposed algorithm is verified by applying to the onboard video obtained by flight test.

Immersive contents is content that provides a realistic experience by maximizing the user's five senses, and includes virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality. In order to provide a sense of reality to users in immersive content, it is necessary to provide realistic visual images, hearing, and touch. However, due to the rapid change in the environment for developing immersive content, experts in training human resources are having difficulties in designing the curriculum. In this study, we propose a series of educational courses that use drones to acquire and process real-world measurement data and apply the derived data to VR, AR, and MR to help experts in training immersive content develop talent. The design of training process composes through demand survey and analysis of companies, students, and local communities. This study can be a useful resource for education experts who want to train immersive contents manpower.

20세기에 탄생한 동력비행기는 인간의 이동능력을 비약적으로 향상시켰다. 인류의 미개척지였던 항공분야의 발전은 지속적인 기술개발을 통해 더 빨리, 더 멀리, 더 높이 향하기 위해서 계속 나아가고 있다. 이러한와중에 최근에 괄목할 만한 성장을 이룬 컴퓨터와 소프트웨어 산업의 발전은 비행임무에 따라 위험성이 높거나, 사람이 하기 힘든 반복적이고 지루한 비행을 대신하기위한 로봇 비행체 즉, 무인항공기의 개발을 가능하게 하였다. 무인항공기의 탄생 초기에는 조종사의 희생을 줄이기 위해 군사 분야에서 주로 사용되었으나, 산림감시나 해안정찰, 기상관측, 재난관측, 조난자 수색 등 민수분야의 임무로 점차 활동영역이 넓혀지고 있다. 현재 무인항공기에 탑재된 인공지능의 수준은 안정된 비행이 가능하도록 하는 자동조종(autopilot)과 주어진 비행경로를 추종하기위한 항법유도(Navigation & Guidance)정도이며, 비행 중 발생하는 비상상황에 대처하기 위한 의사판단은 지상의 조종자에 의해 결정된다. 앞으로는 계획되지 않은 상황을 맞이했을 때 무인기 스스로 판단하여 경로를 변경하고, 동시에 여러 무인기들과 협력하여 임무를 수행함으로써 임무효율을 높이는 방향으로 인공지능의 수준이 향상될 것이다. 본 논문에서는 최근의 무인항공기 개발추세와 이들 무인기에 고려되고 있는 제어기에 대해 살펴보고, 향후 무인항공기에 적용될 자율비행 알고리듬과 제어기 시스템의 개발동향에 대해 고찰하였다.

The increases in UAVs(Unman Aerial Vehicle) such as drone result in safety issues and the threat of illegal drone as well. Recognizing the need for Drone forensics, domestic and foreign organizations and agencies are trying to establish drone forensic guidelines. The definition of Drone forensic artifacts and examination of forensic tools must be provided, in order to establish a practical drone forensic framework on security sites and also the concept of drone live forensic which provides meaningful data that can be extracted in a live state. In this study, the drone forensic methodology covering various types of drones is explained, and the practical forensic methodology with live forensic PoC(Proof Of Concept) tools; LiPFo(Live-PX4-Forenensic) is proposed.

A MDO study of a midium-sized solar powered High Altitude Long Endurance (HALE) UAV has been performed, focused on energy balance. In the MDO process, Vortex Lattice Method(VLM) is employed for the aerodynamic modeling of the vehicle, of which structural weight is estimated with the modeling proposed by Cruz. Tail volume ratios have been set as constants, while the location of tail surfaces is determined from longitudinal static stability criterion. By balancing the available energy from solar cells, battery, and altitude, with the energy-requirement of the vehicle, the possibility of continuous flight over 24-hours has been investigated. The solar radiation level is set as that of summer at the latitude of $36^{\circ}$ north. During the daytime, the aircraft climbs using solar energy, accumulating potential energy, which supplements energy balance during the night. Optimizations have been sought in size of the vehicle, its weight distribution, and flight strategy.
