  • If the EOIR equipment mounted on an unmanned aircraft transmits images and receives commands through a data link, there may be delays in data transmission depending on the transmission path of the data and the conditions of the ground equipment or wireless network. This increases the possibility of initial target LOCK-ON failure due to the difference between the time when the received image is viewed and the time when the image is taken. Therefore, this paper proposed a way to use frame indexes to synchronize with images, and to increase the success of target tracking by adding frame indexes to commands from the ground station.

  • This paper studied the high-velocity impact behavior characteristics of metal materials by crosschecking the high-velocity impact analysis with the high-velocity impact experiment results of aluminul 6061. The coefficients of the Huh-Kang material model and the Johnson-Cook fracture model were calculated through quasi-static using MTS-810 and dynamic experimenting using the Hopkinson bar equipment for high-velocity impact analysis. The penetration velocity and shape were predicted through high-velocity impact analysis using the LS-DYNA. The resultes were compared with the experiment results using a high-velocit experiment equipment. It is intended to be used the containment evaluation research for aircraft gas turbine engine blade.

  • This paper presents a method to suppress multipath induced by pulses using supervised learning. In modern electronics, pulses have been used for various purposes such as communication or distance measurements. Like other signals, pulses also suffer from multipath. When a pulse and a multipath are overlapped, the original pulse shape is distorted. The distorted pulse could result in communication failures or distance measurement errors. However, a large number of samples available from a pulse can be used to effectively reject multipath by using a supervised learning method. This paper introduces how a supervised learning method can be applied to Distance Measuring Equipment. Simulation results show that multipath induced distance measuring error can be suppressed by 10 ~ 45 percent depending on the allowed pulse shape variation allowed in a standard.

  • To perform effective integration test of avionics equipments, the importance of a setup for integration test environment has been increasing in recently developed aircraft. Especially, the development of integration test equipment is necessary for minimizing the development period and reliability of integration test. This paper treats the model development for optimal working of integration test after analyzing the characteristics of each MEP equipments for Surion(KUH). Models, whose main role is troubleshooting of equipment and simulation for missing equipments, consists of dynamic, behavior, and ICD models depending on the dynamic characteristics. Software test for both unit level and system level are performed to verify the model reliability. By conducting integration test using SIL, it is confirmed that the developed models are suitable for integration function test of the MEP system.

  • The FPGA is used to the high speed digital satellite communication on the Digital Signal Process Unit of the next generation GEO communication satellite. The high capacity FPGA has the high power dissipation and it is difficult to satisfy the derating requirement of temperature. This matter is the major factor to degrade the equipment life and reliability. The thermal control at the equipment level has been worked through thermal conduction in the space environment. The FPGA of CCGA or BGA package type was mounted on printed circuit board, but the PCB has low efficient to the thermal control. For the FPGA heat dissipation, the heat sink was applied between part lid and housing of equipment and the performance of heat sink was confirmed via thermal vacuum test under the condition of space qualification level. The FPGA of high power dissipation has been difficult to apply for space application, but FPGA with heat sink could be used to space application with the derating temperature margin.

  • In this paper, we propose an ultra compact S-Band PCM/FM telemetry transmitter. The equipment is compact, so it can be applied to a limited space and capable of stable data transmission was designed and manufactured even with specifications set differently for each operating environment and system. RF direct conversion structure is used for the miniaturization of equipment, an RF transmission board, Power distribution board, and a signal processing board were implemented on a single PCB, so that the function of the transmitter could be performed with a minimum device. According to the target specification, variable output of 1~10W and variable data rate of 390kbps~12.5Mbps is possible in S-Band(2,200~2,400MHz) without degradation of performance. To verify the performance of the equipment, the RF performance test and BER measurement test were performed after the equipment was manufactured. It was confirmed that the OBW, null-to-null bandwidth, 1st IMD, Spurious emission, Phase noise specification of the PCM/FM modulated signal which is presented by the IRIG standard were satisfied, and we can confirm the data received using the transmitter inspection equipment were transmitted normally without distortion.

  • With the exception of some large domestic airlines with adequate maintenance capability, most low-cost and small airlines do not have the facilities, equipment/tools, or manpower to perform periodic inspections over "C check." They are repaired according to maintenance programs specified by manufacturers. The outsourcing (domestic or overseas) of maintenance contracts is thus crucial to achieve good quality service at low cost, and these contracts therefore need to be signed with a full understanding of what is to be expected. This study aims to determine the requirements to be considered prior to finalizing such contracts.

  • This paper presents a virtual boundary element-equivalent collocation method (VBEM) for the plane magnetoelectroelastic solids, which is based on the fundamental solutions of the plane magnetoelectroelastic solids and the basic idea of the virtual boundary element method for elasticity. Besides all the advantages of the conventional boundary element method (BEM) over domain discretization methods, this method avoids the computation of singular integral on the boundary by introducing the virtual boundary. In the end, several numerical examples are performed to demonstrate the performance of this method, and the results show that they agree well with the exact solutions. So the method is one of the efficient numerical methods used to analyze megnatoelectroelastic solids.
