최초에 군용으로 개발되었던 무인기(Unmanned Air Vehichle, 이하 드론)가, 최근 많은 연구를 통해 다양한 분야에 활용되고 있다. 본고에서는 다수의 드론을 통해 드론 편대를 구성하고, 이를 활용하여 무선 통신 네트워크 인프라를 구축하며, 재난 지역과 같은 무선 네트워크 접속이 불가능한 지역에 있는 사용자가 인터넷을 연결할 수 있게 해주는 Net-Drone을 제안한다. Net-Drone은 무인기간 유기적인 비행 정보 교환을 통해 드론 편대에 기반한 네트워크망 구축에 있어서의 안정성을 증강시키고, 드론 편대의 위치 정보를 중앙에서 관리하는 체계를 통해 최적의 라우팅 경로를 파악하여 지상의 네트워크 트래픽에 기반한 최상의 드론 배치를 설정한다. 본고에서는 Net-Drone의 물리적인 구현에서부터 사용자에게 네트워크를 공급하게 되는 전체 과정을 소개함으로써, 재난 지역 등의 네트워크가 연결되지 않은 지역에서의 무선 네트워크 인프라 구축에 대한 새로운 가능성을 제시한다.

본 논문은 전파의 다중경로에 의한 추적레이더의 추적 오차에 대한 분석과 모사 알고리즘 개발에 관한 것이다. 일반적으로 알려진 저고도 추적 레이더의 연구내용을 분석 하였고 이를 바탕으로 Matlab을 이용한 추적오차 계산용 수치해석 프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서는 고도 오차의 요인들을 분석하고 안테나 빔 폭, 확산계수, 지면의 반사계수 등을 고려한 오차 계산방법을 제시 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과들이 이론적인 예측 결과와 잘 일치함을 볼 수 있다.

This paper describes an automatic landing approach algorithm for fixed-wing UAVs using waypoint guidance. The proposed algorithm utilizes simple 2D Dubin's vehicle pre-simulations in planning the waypoints for landing approach. The remaining time to reach the runway is also estimated in the pre-simulation, and it is used for altitude control. The performance of the designed algorithm was verified by simulations and flight tests.

조류충돌(Bird Strike)은 경제적 손실, 인명적 피해를 야기하여 공군의 항공작전을 제한하는 위협요소이다. 현 공군에서는 조수퇴치조(Bird Alert Team)의 경보 발령에 의존하거나 조류의 행동을 연구하는 등 인적 역량에 의존하는 시스템을 채택하고 있다. 본 연구는 CNN을 이용하여 활주로의 유해조류를 인식 및 분류하는 자동화 시스템에 대한 제안이다. 웹캠을 활용한 실시간 유해조류를 인식하는 연구를 통해 향후 운항관제대와의 연계, 지향성 조류퇴치 장비와의 연동 방안을 제시하여 공군의 조수퇴치조(Bird Alert Team)에 대한 자동화를 실현하고 공군에서 추진중인 스마트 비행단에 이바지하고자 한다.

Existing studies on the UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)-based CPS (Cyber Physical System) environment lack forest fire monitoring and forest fire reconnaissance using real-world UAVs. So, it is necessary to monitor forest fires early through CPS based on real-world UAVs with high reliability and resource management efficiency. In this paper presents an MFG (Misstion File Generater) that automatically generates a flight path of an UAV for forest fire monitoring in a CPS environment. MFG generates flight paths based on a hiking trail with a high fire probability due to a true story of an entrant. We have confirmed that the flight path generated by MFG can be applied to the UAV. Also, we have verified that the UAV flies according to the flight path generated by MFG in simulation, with a negligible error rate.

The potential impact of aircraft emissions on the current and projected climate of our planet is one of the more important environmental issues facing the aviation industry. Increasing concern over the potential negative effects of greenhouse gas emissions has motivated the development of an aircraft emission estimation and prediction system as one of the ways to reduce aircraft emissions and mitigate the impact of aviation on climate. Hence, in this research, using Piano-X software which was developed by Lissys Co., fuel consumption and emissions for 3 types of aircraft were estimated for different design payloads with various flight distances and flight paths. Fuel burns for economy speed, long range cruise speed, maximum range speed were also investigated with various flight distances and altitudes.

A LIDAR can rapidly generate 3D points by densely sampling the surfaces of targets using laser pulses, which has been efficiently utilized to reconstruct 3D models of the targets automatically. Due to this advantage, LIDARs are increasingly applied to the fields of Defense and Security, for examples, being employed to intelligently guided missiles and manned/unmanned reconnaissance planes. For the prior verification of the LIDAR applicability, this study aims at generating simulated LIDAR data. Here, we derived the sensor equation by modelling the geometric relationships between the LIDAR sub-modules, such as GPS, IMU, LS and the systematic errors associated with them. Based on this equation, we developed a program to generate simulated data with the system parameters, the systematic errors, the flight trajectories and attitudes, and the reference terrain model given. This program had been applied to generating simulated LIDAR data for urban areas. By analyzing these simulated data, we verified the accuracy and usefulness of the simulation. The simulator developed in this study will provide economically various test data required for the development of application algorithms and contribute to the optimal establishment of the flight and system parameters.

This paper presents development activities of the T700/701K turbo-shaft engine for Korean Utility Helicopter(KUH). The T700/701K is the first rear-drive variant of the GE's T700 engine which is proven for military applications in the world. The main workscope of the development includes a modification from a front-drive engine to a rear-drive one, an performance enhancement of the power turbine and an incorporation of two channel FADEC(Full Authority Digital Engine Control) system for more reliable operation. The first engine run for development and qualification test was successfully completed in 2008. Since the PFRT(Preliminary Flight Rating Test) has been completed, the first flight of the engine installed in the first prototype of KUH has been successfully demonstrated in March, 2010 and the engine installation compatibility tests are being carried out during KUH flight test. The test and evaluation for qualification has been done except for the low cycle fatigue test up to date.

Recently, the RPAS(Remote Piloted Aircraft System), by remote control and autonomous navigation, has been increasing in interest and utilization in various industries and public organizations along with delivery drones, fire drones, ambulances, agricultural drones, and others. The problems of the stability of unmanned drones, which can be self-controlled, are also the biggest challenge to be solved along the development of the drone industry. drones should be able to fly in the specified path the autonomous flight control system sets, and perform automatically an accurate landing at the destination. This study proposes a technique to check arrival by landing point images and control landing at the correct point, compensating for errors in location data of the drone sensors and GPS. Receiving from the Google Map API and learning from the destination video, taking images of the landing point with a drone equipped with a NAVIO2 and Raspberry Pi, camera, sending them to the server, adjusting the location of the drone in line with threshold, Drones can automatically land at the landing point.
