The airline industry has been growing steadily since 2016 with more than 100 million air passengers, renewing the largest number of air passengers every year. Increasing air demand leads to an increase in air traffic in limited airspace, increasing the likelihood of accidents between aircraft. Due to the massive human and material damage caused by a single mistake, aviation safety is being heavily focused around the world to efficiently use limited airspace. Studies related to various human factors are underway as most of the aviation accidents are found to be caused by human factors, but research on human factors by controllers is insufficient while they are active in terms of control and operation. Given that 82% of air accidents caused by controllers are caused by human error, the importance of management of human error and changes in perception are urgently needed. This study aims to understand the seriousness of the controller's human error by analyzing the accident cases caused by the controller's human error using TEM to identify threats and errors and derive common human factors.

This paper discusses the qualification criteria for international hub airport and suggests the strategies for Inchon International Airport (IIA) to be the hub airport in the East Asia. Recently, many East and Southeast Asia countries have invested on large scale international airports like Chap Lak Kok airport, Pudong airport etc.. as Korea have done on IIA. IIA to be open in 2001 will face a serious competition with these airport. Being a hub airport requires geographic proximity. sufficient volume of local traffic. uncongested infrastructure, a good accessibility to surrounding industrial centers. high quality of service to the airline. In order to promote airlines to land at IIA. Korea Government need to establish Open Sky Policy to many countries and national flag carriers of Korea need to be involved in a global alliance. Developing vicinity of IIA as free trade zone will generated more local traffic which makes IIA as more attractive candidate for airlines. The Korea airspace is one of the most restricted area in the world becuase of the national security. which limits civil aircraft maneuvers. The airspace need to be re-structured to exploit the full capacity of IIA.

In aviation, with the rapid transformation of the mobility industry, UAMs are emerging to operate green low-altitude airspace in urban environments. In order for UAM aircraft to fly safely transporting passengers and cargo in low-altitude urban airspace, a traffic control system that supports the safe operation of the aircraft is essential. In particular, traffic control systems that reflect the characteristics of the flight environment, such as operating at low altitude in urban environments for a short period of time, are required. In this study, we define the definition of UATM and its main services that perform traffic control for the safe operation of UAMs. In addition, we analyzed the development trends of UATM systems based on domestic and overseas cases. Based on these analyses, we present the results of the concept design of the UATM system. After analyzing UATM development cases, we found that there is no commercialized UATM system, but overseas development is focused on systems that can integrate ATM and UTM. And we identified key stakeholders and interface data, and performed UATM system architecture and functional design based on the identified data. Finally, as a necessary element for the future development of UATM systems, we propose the establishment and advancement of UAM traffic flow management systems, the establishment of integrated control systems, and the development of interface with aircraft operation systems in preparation for the unmanned UAM aircraft.

본 논문에서는 우리나라 항공용 위성항법 보강시스템의 구축 방안에 대해 ICAO기준을 만족하는 전공역 위성항법 보강시스템 성능기준을 바탕으로 정량화하여 검토하였다. 국제적 동향으로부터 구축예상시점에서의 추세변화를 예측하고, 우선적으로 우리나라 여건에 적합한 구축 시나리오를 설정하여 가용성(Availability)에 대한 성능분석을 수행하였다. 국내 구축 시나리오로는 GBAS의 경우 국내 모든 공항에 구축하고, SBAS와 GRAS의 경우 5개 지역의 기준국과 2개의 중앙처리국이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 추가적으로 SBAS의 경우는 2개의 지상 송신국(Uplink Station)과 2개의 정지위성이 소요되고, GRAS의 경우는 15개의 VDB가 소요되는 것으로 분석되었다. 전공역에 대한 각 보강시스템들에 대한 우리나라에서의 기용성 분석결과를 제시하였으며, 위성항법기술의 발전추세를 종합적으로 고려하더라도, SBAS와 GRAS의 경우는 CAT-I 수준 이상의 가용성을 보장하지 못할 것으로 판단되는 반면, ABAS의 성능은 지속적으로 개량되어 나갈 것이 확실시 되므로 대형기 중심의 우리나라 상황에서의 항공항법용 보강시스템으로서는 ABAS와 GBAS만으로 충분할 것으로 평가되었다.

Due to the lack of navigable airspace caused by worldwide air traffic increases, air traffic control(ATC) services are becoming more complex, which results in the increase of aircraft accidents. To cope with these challenges, major aviation institutes abroad are actively conducting research regarding the human factors affecting controllers but as of late, no such specialized activities have been found in Korea. Due to the dynamic attributes of ATC operations, management of controller's situation awareness(SA) and workload, and knowledge on the impact of abnormal aircraft to controllers are very important. Furthermore, using actual flight data of each country will lead to valuable results, because individually, it has different airspace characteristics and air traffic volumes. This study assumed that air traffic difficulties would affect the controller's SA and workload. To testify the above hypothesis, the abnormal air traffic situations are simulated by using ATC simulator. The findings indicated that the effect of traffic situations containing abnormal aircraft on the controller's SA and workload, it led to demand increase and supply decrease in SA, and increased mental demand, temporal demand, effort and mean workload score in the workload.

UTM is an air traffic management ecosystem under development for autonomously controlled operations of UAS by the FAA, NASA, other federal partner agencies, and industry. They are collaboratively exploring concepts of operation, data exchange requirements, and a supporting framework to enable multiple UAS operations beyond visual line-of-sight at altitudes under AGL 500ft in airspace where air traffic services are not provided. Minimum Safe Altitude is a generic expression, used in various cases to denote an altitude below which it is unsafe to fly owing to presence of terrain or obstacles. The European drone regulation mentions that the UAS is maintained within 120 metres from the closest point of the surface of the earth during flight, except when overflying an obstacle. This study attempted to develop a minimum flight altitude database system. Based on domestic and international rules and regulations on setting the minimum flight altitude it is expected that it can be applied to the operation of aircraft and unmanned aerial system in UTM environments for specific area in Korea.

General aviation and air transport are two wings of the civil aviation industry. Chinese air transport is developing rapidly, and has become the world second air transport system only second to US since 2005. However, Chinese civil aviation is far behind the world average level, and cannot meet requirements of economic construction and social development. The transition and structural adjustment of Chinese economy provide the general aviation with a unprecedented broad market. The prospect of general aviation is promising and anticipated. The development of general aviation industry needs the legislative supports, and the current legislative conditions of Chinese general aviation are undoubtedly far behind the realistic requirements. Accelerating the legislation in Chinese general aviation industry requires scientific legislation concept. First, Legislation must promote development of general aviation industry. The general aviation will serves as a Chinese emerging industry that boosts domestic demand, promotes employment and expedite domestic economic development. We should, based on both the concept of promoting the industrial development of general aviation and national industrial planning, enact and rectify relative laws and regulations. And we should also straighten out the relationship between aviation security and industrial development and promote the revolution of low-altitude airspace management in an all-round way, in order to improve the utilization rate of airspace resources, classify and establish airspace, simplify examination and approval procedure and intensify operation management. In addition, what we should do is to expedite the infrastructure layout construction, guide the differentiated but coordinated development of general aviation industries in various areas, establish a united supervision mechanism of general aviation, redistrict the responsibilities of Chinese Air Control Agency and set up legislation, law enforcement and judicial systems with clarified institutions, clear positioning and classified responsibilities, so as to usher in a new era of the legislative management of Chinese general aviation industry. Second, shift the focus from regulations to both regulations and services. Considering the particularity of the general aviation, we should use American practices for reference and take into account both regulation and service functions when enacting general aviation laws. For example, we should reduce administrative licensing and market supervision, and adopt "criteria" and "approval" management systems for non-commercial and commercial aviation. Furthermore, pay attention to social benefits. Complete social rescuing mechanism through legislation. It should be clarified in legislation that general aviation operators should take the responsibilities of, and ensure to realize social benefits of environmental protection and ecological balance .Finally, rise in line with international standards. Modify Chinese regulations which is inconsistent with international ones to remove barriers to international cooperation. Specify basic legislative principles. One is the principle of coordination. Realize coordination between the civil aviation and general aviation, between military aviation and civil aviation, and among departments. Two is the principle of pertinence. The general aviation has its own rules and specialties, needing to be standardized using specialized laws and regulations. Three is the principle of efficiency. To realize time and space values of general aviation, we should complete rules in aerospace openness, general aviation airport construction, general aviation operations, and regulation enforcement. Four is the principle of security. Balance the maximum use of resources of Chinese airspace and the according potential threats to Chinese national interests and social security, and establish a complete insurance system which functions as security defense and indemnificatory measure. Establish a unified legal system. Currently, the system of Chinese general aviation laws consists of national legislation, administrative laws and regulations and civil aviation regulations (CAR). Some problems exist in three components of the system, including too general content, unclear guarantee measures, incomplete implementation details, and lacking corresponding pertinence and flexibility required by general aviation regulations, stringency of operation management and standards, and uniformity of standards. A law and regulation system, centered on laws and consisting of administrative laws regulations, industrial regulations, implementation details, industrial policies and local laws and regulations, should be established. It is suggested to modify the Civil Aviation Law to make general aviation laws complete, enact the Regulations of General Aviation Development, and accelerate the establishment, modification and abolition of Chinese general aviation laws to intensify the coordination and uniformity of regulations.

Arrival management is a tool which provides efficient flow of traffic and reduces ATC workload by determining aircraft's sequence and schedules while they are in cruise phase. As a decision support tool, arrival management should advise on air traffic control service based on the understanding of human factor of its user, air traffic controller. This paper proposed a prediction model for air traffic controller sequencing strategy by analyzing the historical trajectory data. Statistical analysis is used to find how air traffic controller decides the sequence of aircraft based on the speed difference and the airspace entering time difference of aircraft. Logistic regression was applied for the proposed model and its performance was demonstrated through the comparison of the real operational data.

20세기 이후 항공우주 군사과학기술의 발달과정에 비추어 보면, 국가의 존립과 번영을 위해서 하늘은 매우 중요하다. "하늘을 지배하는 자, 세계를 지배한다!"는 격언이 제공권(制空權)의 필요성을 강조하고 있다. 이 글은 남북의 통일 과정과 통일 이후 공역(空域, airspace)의 지위에 관한 최초의 연구로서, 이를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 영공(領空)은 영토와 영해의 상공으로 국경선과 영해선에 의하여 그 수평적 범위가 결정된다. 국경문제에 관하여 역사적 진실규명을 통한 재조정의 시도보다는 현질서의 수용이 가장 합리적이고, 통일전후과정에서 인접 국가의 지지를 받을 수 있으며, 동북아 평화를 위해서 통일한국은 북한과 중국 러시아 사이의 기존 국경협정을 그대로 존중할 필요가 있다. 그러나 현재 북한이 동해 황해에 설정한 직선기선은 국제법상 직선기선이 적용될 수 있는 사정을 갖추지 못하였기 때문에 이를 폐기하고, 통일한국은 국제법에 부합하는 기선을 다시 정하여 그 바깥쪽 12해리의 선까지에 이르는 수역을 영해로 결정하는 것이 바람직하다. 둘째, 비행정보구역(Flight Information Region)은 항공기의 안전하고 효율적인 비행과 항공기의 수색 구조에 필요한 정보를 제공하기 위하여 국제민간항공기구(ICAO)에서 획정한 구역이므로 국제법상 효력이 있다. 현재 한반도 일대에는 남한이 관할하는 인천 FIR과 북한이 관할하는 평양 FIR로 나누어져 있다. 급변사태가 발생하여 북한에서 일시적으로 평양 FIR의 관제권을 행사할 수 없는 경우에는 원칙적으로 남한이 평양 FIR의 관제권을 행사하고, 부득이한 경우에는 ICAO가 일시적으로 이를 행사하는 것이 바람직하다. 통일한국에서는 FIR의 체계적 관리와 통제, 항로개설 관리의 효율성 등을 감안하여, ICAO의 승인을 얻어 평양 FIR을 폐지하고 인천 FIR로 통합하여 운용하는 것이 바람직하다. 셋째, 방공식별구역(Air Defense Identification Zone)은 국가안전보장 목적상항공기의 용이한 식별, 위치 확인 및 통제가 요구되는 공역으로서, 해당 국가가 일방적으로 설정한다. 미국은 1951. 3. 22. 전시포고령에 의하여 한국방공식별구역(KADIZ)을 일방적으로 설정하였는데, 국방부는 2013. 12. 8. 이어도 상공을 포함하는 지역까지 확장한 새로운 KADIZ를 선포하였다. 현재 북한의 군사경계수역은 동해 황해 등 해상경계선으로만 설정되어 있는 점, 중국 러시아와의 관계에서 ADIZ로서 기능을 수행하기에 부족한 점에 비추어 보면, 통일한국이 이를 승계할 의무는 없다. 한반도의 경우에는 종심(縱深)이 짧기 때문에 영공보다 외곽에 ADIZ 경계선을 설정하여야 ADIZ 본래 목적을 달성할 수 있으므로, 통일한국의 인천 FIR과 일치하는 경계선으로 통일한국의 KADIZ를 새로 설정하여 이를 선포하는 것이 타당하다. 다만, 인접국가의 ADIZ와 중첩되거나 경계선을 같이하여 완충지역이 존재하지 않는 경우에는 군사적 긴장감이 고조될 수 있으므로, 동북아 평화를 위해서는 상호간 협상을 통하여 해상에서는 인접국가의 ADIZ 사이에 완충공간을 설정하는 것이 바람직하다.

항공교통흐름관리의 목적은 공항 및 공역의 수용량 안에서 항공교통 수요를 만족시키는 것이다. 그러므로 수용량을 정확하게 예측하는 것은 항공교통흐름관리의 성능에 많은 영향을 준다. 본 논문은 특정 공항의 예상 출·도착 수요, 시각, 기상 및 실제 처리한 항공기 대수 등 과거의 항공기운항 데이터를 기계학습의 한 방법론인 부스팅 앙상블 알고리즘으로 학습하여 시간당 출·도착하는 항공기의 수를 예측하는 회귀모형을 개발하였다. 기계학습을 통해 도출된 모델은 실제 인천국제공항의 출·도착 항공편 데이터를 이용해 검증하였으며, 결정계수가 0.95 이상으로 나타났다. 이 모델을 이용하여 접근관제구역의 수용량을 간접적으로 예측할 수 있었다.
