무인항공기를 UAV(Un-maned Aerial Vehicle)이라고 한다. 사람이 타지 않고 원거리에서 전파로 조종한다는 점에서 원격조종인 Radivom과 비슷하지만 점차 그 기술이 진보함에 따라 이방면에 대한 미국의 국방연구개발비 예산이 늘고 있어 다시 주목을 받고 있다. 미국은 21세기의 전쟁에 대한 새 전략의 일부로 무인항공기를 실용화하려는 것인데 미국뿐 아니라 유럽과 미국등에서도 연구가 추진중이라고 한다.

With the development of information and communication technology, the unmanned aerial vehicle industry began to attract attention as a new growth industry as it entered the fourth industrial revolution. As the size of the unmanned aerial vehicles and the scope of airspace vary from small drones to large unmanned aerial vehicles, the developed countries such as USA and Europe are developing plans for the integrated operation of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles. ICAO is also working on amendments to the relevant ICAO annexes to establish international standards and recommendations for unmanned aerial vehicles. Korea also needs to prepare for the integrated operation of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles that will come in the future, and for this purpose, it is necessary to review and revise the national regulation systems for the safe operation of unmanned aerial vehicles. This study analyzes the amendments of related annexes discussed on the Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) pannel, and suggests the direction of revision of the Aviation Safety Act for the safe operation of unmanned aerial vehicles in comparison with the existing Aviation Safety Act.

Military UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) operated as a RC(Remotely Control) model level within the limit of the military special use airspace until now. However, the high and medium altitude of URA(Unmanned Reconnaissance Aircraft) which the ROKAF have been trying to import recently is at the UAV level and needs the criteria for the classified airspace flights. The required flight criteria includes operator location, mission operation limit, equipment, etc., which are the principle and standard applied based on the airspace use for UAV. Also, the general flight rules, visual flight rules, instrument flight rules are required in order to have to be applied to the actual flight. Besides, an appliance regulation needs to be arranged regarding two-way communication, ATC and communication issue, airspace and area in-flight between UAS( Unmanned Aircraft System) users. An operation of the UAV in the air significantly requires the guarantee of the aircraft's capacity, and also the standardized flight criteria. A safe and smooth use is ensured only if this criteria is applied and understood by the entire airspace users. For the purpose, a standardized military UAV flight operations criteria that is to be applied for each airspace by UAV is to be prepared through analysis of the present state, a legend UAV system, and a special character analysis.

Recently, the need of RPA(Remotely Piloted Aircraft) pilots is increasing rapidly with many requirements in order to be a beginner RPA pilot, including basic flight training, instrument flight qualification training, and aircraft type switching training. When RPA pilot gets disqualified, there will be generated much waste of efforts and expenses of trainees those pilots who are disqualified. Therefore, the methodology of pre-verifying those pilots who are not proper as RPA pilots through various scientific methods will save time and expenses with pre-reducing the pilots who will get disqualified later on. The methodology of aptitude test of RPA pilots is laid out as a consideration of pre-study of RPA pilots work analysis, and select types of aptitude test. A suitability of aptitude test is verified. In order to diagnose the flight aptitude precisely, it requires to be developed. Flight aptitude test tools might be connected with training program which could foster piloting aptitude with pre-diagnosing RPA pilot trainee selecting process. For that reason, we made an experiment in order to verify credibility and suitability of these selected programs with developing RPA pilot aptitude test tools. And also, we analyzed relationships among characteristics, analysis of data, and variables to verify the efficiency of data from prior experiment. Through this thesis, we expect to raise efficiency of flight training by providing pre-flight aptitude test information of RPA pilots.

Currently, the domestic UAS technology is lagging behind the leading countries in terms of both advanced technology and industrial competitiveness, but it cannot avoid the global efforts of integrating UAS into existing manned aviation system and applying them to industries. UAS is a relatively new system to existing aviation world, but ICAO is making a great effort to help Contracting States and the aviation industries to better understand and promote UAV systems. In particular, the UAS is classified as RPAS and other UAS, leading to the standardization work for integrating the RPAS into the manned aviation in the near future. For this purpose, ICAO has been promoting the standardization for the global operation of the RPAS, and in this study, it has been carrying out the study on the strategy to establish the domestic RPAS certification system including the ICAO standardization activities. This paper analyzes the domestic and international regulatory frameworks for RPAS and presents a strategy for building the domestic RPAS certification system.

항공기에는 많은 시스템이 있고 다양한 장치들이 있다. 이 장치들은 사용자의 명령을 입력받아 사용되는데 자동을 제외한 거의 모든 시스템들은 사용자의 직접적인 조작으로 작동된다. 하지만 여전히 완전 자동화는 되지 않아 사소하고 섬세한 부분에서 조종사는 수동으로 작동시켜 주어야하는 부분들이 있다. 사소한 부분들을 신경써야 하기에 조종사에게 피로는 필수적을 따라왔다. 본 연구에선 현재의 기술에서 더 나아가 음성인식(STT, TTS)을 활용하여 항공기의 다양한 장치들을 원격제어할 수 있게 개발하여 완전 자동화를 목적으로 한다. 음성을 이용한 방식은 조종사에게 손을 사용하지 않는 편리함을 제공한다. 조종사에게 원거리에서 음성으로 조작할 수 있게 해줌으로써 손을 사용하여 조작하지 않아 편의성을 제공할 수 있고 명령을 통해 컴퓨터가 처리함으로써 조종이 간단해진다. 본 연구로 인해 사소한 부분까지 신경쓸 필요가 없어져 조종사의 실수나 피로로인해 일어나는 사고를 방지할 수 있다.

최근 카메라와 같은 센서가 장착된 UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, 무인항공기)를 이용하는 분야는 방재, 농업, 군사 분야 등 매우 다양해지고 있다. 그러나 고품질의 영상데이터를 취득하기 위해서는 가벼우면서도 우수한 성능을 지닌 고가의 MEMS 센서 그리고 센서가 안정적으로 데이터를 획득할 수 있도록 안정적인 비행이 가능한 대형 UAV플랫폼으로 구성된 시스템이 필요하기 때문에 시스템 구축비용이 클 수밖에 없다. 본 연구에서는 저비용으로 영상 데이터를 취득할 수 있는 UAV시스템을 구축하여 취득된 영상데이터의 처리를 통해 얻어지는 영상의 품질을 살펴보고 그 효용성을 시험해보았다. 이를 위해서 고가인 UAV를 대신해 비교적 가격이 저렴한 R/C헬기(Remote Control, 원격조종 헬기)를 플랫폼으로 선정하고, 영상데이터를 수집하는 카메라센서를 탑재하였다. 그리고 탑재된 센서가 안정적으로 데이터를 취득할 수 있도록, 센서와 플랫폼 사이에 Gimbal을 장착하였다. 이렇게 구축된 시스템을 이용하여 시험비행을 해보았으며, 그 결과 플랫폼에 탑재된 센서로부터 비교적 안정적이고 양질의 이미지를 획득할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 구축한 R/C 헬리콥터 시스템을 통하여 저비용/고효율의 영상데이터를 취득할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 구축된 시스템은 근접한 거리에서 대상물의 영상을 취득하기 때문에 고품질의 3차원 모델데이터 생성에 매우 도움이 될 것으로 생각한다.

Unmaned Aerial Vehical(UAV) is a flight which is automatically flying by remote control on th ground. However UAV has an advantage of control that is easy, but has an disadvantage of not hovering. By comparison, quadcopter which is one of the UAV is easily operated. Also quadcopter has hovering function and high stability. In this paper, we propose stable flight algorithm associated PID(proportional-integral-derivative) control with fuzzy contorl to implement stable quadcopter system. After getting a positioning information of the drone, This proposed system is implemented for stable flight through flight attitude control using gyro and acceleration sensor. We also propose the flight mode system to hover drone with GPS sensor.

The need of aerial photographs is increasing for small area development such as facility management, site planning, residence planning, and so on. It is not an easy task, however, to take aerial photographs using an aircraft for metric photogrammetry because of the strict regulatins of flying and also photographing in Korea, as well as the cost. As one of efficient methods to take large-scale aerial photographs, we investigated the ways of photographing by a remote controlled model plane(RC plane) with a light weight non-metric camera on board. We had examined the principles of RC planes and assembled a RC plane, And test photographing was performed. Even though we obtained reasonably good stereo-pairs for the grounds and facilities using the RC plane, we found there were yet many problems to be solved, such as difficulties of RC plane control, camera focusing, and accumulation of dust on the camera lens.
