Aircraft radar has special function which is ranging from aircraft to ground of antenna boresight. Because ranging information is used to calibrate altitude of aircraft or to drop a conventional bomb, the measuring have to be precise and robust. Therefore, we propose a simple and efficient method using monopulse radar for ground ranging. Proposed method calculates balancing weight according to linearity of monopulse ratio and mixes two ranging measurements in proportional to the weight. By exploiting balancing weight, radar is able to react to various environment as monopulse ratio contains characteristics of clutter environment. As a result, robust ranging information can be achieved. We use DEM(Digital Elevation Model) in order to simulate heterogeneous environment. In experimental result, it is shown that proposed method shows better accuracy and precision in any environment.

A dynamic stability test was performed to determine dynamic stability derivatives for the pure pitching motion of air-to-ground missile model in the low speed wind tunnel. The free vibration technique was employed to acquire oscillation characteristics of the model for damping coefficients. Damping coefficients are obtained by the method of logarithmic decrement. Results show good damping effects and stability capability at Mach numbers 0.1 and 0.2, with the angle of attack ranging from -15 to +20 degrees.

Experiments to study high-energy cosmic rays (CRs) employ Monte Carlo codes for extensive air shower (EAS) simulations to figure out the properties of CRs. COSMOS and CORSIKA among EAS simulation codes are currently being used to analyze the data of the Telescope Array experiment. We have generated a library of about 10,000 simulated EASs with the primary energy ranging from $10^{18.5}eV$ to $10^{20}eV$ and the zenith angle of primary particles ranging from 0 to 45 degree for proton and iron primaries. We have compared the results predicted by CORSIKA and COSMOS under the same condition. In this talk, we show the differences in the energy spectra at the ground, the longitudinal shower profile as a function of atmospheric depth, the Calorimetric energy, and the Xmax distribution. We also discuss the lateral distribution function obtained from GEANT4 simulations which is being used to measure the detector response.

Ultra-high energy cosmic rays(UHECRs) refer cosmic rays with energy above 1018eV. UHECR experiments have employed air shower simulations to quantify the properties of cosmic rays. Using COSMOS and CORSIKA, we have produced a library of over 15000 thinned extensive air shower(EAS) simulations with the primary energies ranging from 1018.5eV to 1020eV and the zenith angle of primary cosmic ray particles from 0 to 45 for proton and iron primaries. We have compared the results from CORSIKA and COSMOS. The comparison has shown perceptible differences in the ground distributions, longitudinal distributions, Calorimetric energy, and Xmax distributions. We have also measured the detector response evaluated using GEANT4 simulations. Here, we discuss S(800), i.e. the signal at a distance of 800 m from the shower core, as the primary energy estimator and present the lateral distribution function(LDF) with S(800).

Since 1993, the civil aviation community through RTCA (Radio Technical Commission for Aeronautics) and the ICAO (International Civil Air Navigation Organization) have been working on the definition of GNSS augmentation systems that will provide improved levels of accuracy and integrity. These augmentation systems have been classified into three distinct groups: Aircraft Based Augmentation Systems (ABAS), Space Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) and Ground Based Augmentation Systems (GBAS). The last one is an implemented system to support Air Navigation in CAT-I approaching operation. It consists of three primary subsystems: the GNSS Satellite subsystem that produces the ranging signals and navigation messages; the GBAS ground subsystem, which uses two or more GNSS receivers. It collects pseudo ranges for all GNSS satellites in view and computes and broadcasts differential corrections and integrity-related information; the Aircraft subsystem. Within the area of coverage of the ground station, aircraft subsystems may use the broadcast corrections to compute their own measurements in line with the differential principle. After selection of the desired FAS for the landing runway, the differentially corrected position is used to generate navigation guidance signals. Those are lateral and vertical deviations as well as distance to the threshold crossing point of the selected FAS and integrity flags. The Department of Applied Science in Naples has create for its study a virtual GBAS Ground station. Starting from three GPS double frequency receivers, we collect data of 24h measures session and in post processing we generate the GC (GBAS Correction). For this goal we use the software Pegasus V4.1 developed from EUROCONTROL. Generating the GC we have the possibility to study and monitor GBAS performance and integrity starting from a virtual functional architecture. The latter allows us to collect data without the necessity to found us authorization for the access to restricted area in airport where there is one GBAS installation.

Telescope Array (TA) experiment in Utah, USA, observes ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs); UHECRs refer cosmic rays with energy above $10^{18}eV$. Using COSMOS and CORSIKA, we have produced a library of over 1000 thinned extensive air shower (EAS) simulations with the primary energies ranging from $10^{18.5}eV$ to $10^{20.25}eV$ and the zenith angle of primary cosmic ray particle from $0^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}$. Here, we present the energy spectrum of particles arriving at the ground. We have also calculated the detector response evaluated using GEANT4 simulations. Here, we discuss S(800), i.e. the signal at a distance of 800 m from the shower core, as the primary energy estimator.

This paper presents a comprehensive investigation into the optimization of Flight Management Systems (FMS) with a particular emphasis on data processing efficiency by conducting a comparative study with conventional methods to edge-computing technology. The objective of this research is twofold. Firstly, it evaluates the performance of FMS navigation systems using conventional and edge computing methodologies. Secondly, it aims to extend the boundaries of knowledge in edge-computing technology by conducting a rigorous analysis of terrain data and its implications on flight path optimization along with communication with ground stations. The study employs a combination of simulation-based experimentation and algorithmic computations. Through strategic intervals along the flight path, critical parameters such as distance, altitude profiles, and flight path angles are dynamically assessed. Additionally, edge computing techniques enhance data processing speeds, ensuring adaptability to various scenarios. This paper challenges existing paradigms in flight management and opens avenues for further research in integrating edge computing within aviation technology. The findings presented herein carry significant implications for the aviation industry, ranging from improved operational efficiency to heightened safety measures.

도시의 국지기후 분석에 충분한 공간해상도의 정확한 분석을 위해서는 이를 지원할 정밀한 공간정보가 필요하다. 1~4m 해상도의 항공 LiDAR(Light Detection And Ranging) 자료와 KOMPSAT-2(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-2) 위성영상 자료를 이용하여 초고해상도(5m) 입체적 지형 지면 토지피복 모델을 개선하였다. CAS(Climate Analysis Seoul)를 이용하여 도시내부의 지표면 속성비율과 건물의 밀집도 높이 면적에 따른 열적용량과 국지규모 기온을 분석하였다. 자료의 정밀도 향상 결과가 국지규모 기온 분석에 미치는 효과를 평가하기 위해, 개선이전 및 이후 국지기온 분석 결과와 ASTER 위성영상 지표면온도 및 지상 기온관측 자료를 각각 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 개선이후 국지규모 기온분석 결과와 ASTER 지표면온도 비교시, 건물(BS)지역에서 높은(R=0.76) 상관관계가 나타났다. 지상 기온관측과의 비교에서도 그 편차가 개선이전 1.27K보다 개선되어 0.70K로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과로부터 초고해상도 공간정보가 현실을 잘 반영할 뿐만 아니라 이를 이용한 상세한 기온분석이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 향후 도시 개발 계획 시나리오에 대한 상세도시기후 예측 및 분석에 본 연구의 정밀한 지형 지면 토지피복 모델 기술 등이 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Objective: This paper presents a study to evaluate the WBGT index for assessing the effects of a wide range of outdoor weather conditions on human responses. Background: The Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) index was firstly developed for the assessment of hot outdoor conditions. It is a recognised index that is used world-wide. It may be useful over a range of outdoor conditions and not just for hot climates. Method: Four group experiments, involving people performing a light stepping activity, were conducted to determine human responses to outside conditions in the U.K. They were conducted in September 2007 (autumn), December 2007 (winter), March 2008 (spring) and June 2008 (summer). Environmental measurements included WBGT, air temperature, radiant temperature (including solar load), humidity and wind speed all measured at 1.2m above the ground, as well as weather data measured by a standard weather station at 3m to 4m above the ground. Participants' physiological and subjective responses were measured. When the overall results of the four seasons are considered, WBGT provided a strong prediction of physiological responses as well as subjective responses if aural temperature, heart rate and sweat production were measured. Results: WBGT is appropriate to predict thermal strain on a large group of ordinary people in moderate conditions. Consideration should be given to include the WBGT index in warning systems for a wide range of weather conditions. However, the WBGT overestimated physiological responses of subjects. In addition, tenfold Borg's RPE was significantly different with heart rate measured for the four conditions except autumn (p<0.05). Physiological and subjective responses over 60 minutes consistently showed a similar tendency in the relationships with the $WBGT_{head}$ and $WBGT_{abdomen}$. Conclusion: It was found that either $WBGT_{head}$ or $WBGT_{abdomen}$ could be measured if a measurement should be conducted at only one height. The relationship between the WBGT values and weather station data was also investigated. There was a significant relationship between WBGT values at the position of a person and weather station data. For UK daytime weather conditions ranging from an average air temperature of $6^{\circ}C$ to $21^{\circ}C$ with mean radiant temperatures of up to $57^{\circ}C$, the WBGT index could be used as a simple thermal index to indicate the effects of weather on people. Application: The result of evaluation of WBGT might help to develop the smart clothing for workers in industrial sites and improve the work environment in terms of considering workers' wellness.
