  • This paper describe the Lateral Navigation algorithm design and verification that implementation on Mission Computer's OFP for Korean Utility Helicopter(KUH) instead of Auto Flight Control System(AFCS) Vehicle Management System. The LNAV function transmits Roll command into the AFCS System. The Roll command value will be calculated by control algorithms in MC. The Operational Flight Program(OFP) shall use for its calculations different measurements of the aircraft's attitude and place. Using these inputs, the OFP will translate a navigational demand(for example-to perform the selected flight plan) into Roll commands to the autopilot. By conducting integration test using SIL and ground test, flight test, it is confirmed that the introduced algorithm meets the requirements of the Mission Equipment Package(MEP) system. LNAV function is verified through the System Integration Laboratory(SIL) test, ground and flight test.

  • Because there are some mistakes by hand in processing electronic maps using a navigation terminal, this paper proposes an automatic offline recognition for traffic signs, which are considered ingredient navigation information. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), which have been used widely in the field of 2D face recognition as computer vision and pattern recognition applications, was used to recognize traffic signs. First, using PCA, a high-dimensional 2D image data was projected to a low-dimensional feature vector. The LDA maximized the between scatter matrix and minimized the within scatter matrix using the low-dimensional feature vector obtained from PCA. The extracted traffic signs under a real-world road environment were recognized successfully with a 92.3% recognition rate using the 40 feature vectors created by the proposed algorithm.

  • The objective of this paper is to describe the result of development of collision avoidance supporting system, based on the electronic chart display and information system(ECDIS). In real ship operations, collision accidents happen frequently due to human errors such as the lax vigilance, misinterpretation of international regulations for preventing collisions at sea (COLREGs). We developed a system which will help to avoid these kind of accidents. This system can automatically recognize the risk of collisions, generate the safe alternative routes that comply with COLREGs, and then deliver the results into auto pilot. A virtual simulation assuming progressive collision situations revealed the usefulness of this system.

  • The purpose of this paper is to describe the design of the decision support system for container terminal ship planning and to introduce the implemented system. The ship planning in container terminals consists of three major decision processes -the working schedule of gantry cranes the discharging sequence of inbound containers the loading position and sequence of outbound containers. For making these decision the proposed system can provide two ship planning modes the interactive planning mode with user-friendly GUI and the automated planning made. To implement the automated planning routine we acquired the planning rules from the expert planner in container terminals and developed an expert system based on the rules. Finally we evaluated the system developed and the potential for commercialization by using container terminal data.

  • During the operation of crane system in container yard, the objective is to transport the load to a goal position as quick as possible without rope oscillation. The container crane is generally operated by an expert operator, but recently an automatic control system with high speed and rapid transportation is required. Therefore, we developed an optimal controller which has to control the crane system with disturbances. In this paper, we present a design of optima 2-DOF PID controller for the control of gantry crane which has to control swing motion and trolley position. We used evolution strategy(ES) to tune the parameters of 2-DOF PID controller. It was compared with general PID controller. The computer simulations show that the proposed method has better performances than the other method.

  • The objective of this paper is to suggest a decision support system allowing automated stowage planning for containerships, and provide a working prototype. Unlike most previous works in this topic which concentrated mainly on the theoretical aspects. this paper attempts to develop a feasible system for improving the speed and accuracy of stowage planning by combining practice and theoretical solution methods. The paper includes a definition of the containership stowage problem, and details on the design and development of the automated stowage plan generation routine. Several program tests are undertaken with randomly generated input data. The results suggest that the prototype system is quite meaningful even though there are still some unsolved problems. The paper concludes with a discussion of issues for future development of the decision support system.

  • The present study is to estimate the effects of diffracted wave fields in a harbor and around harborentrance due to random waves, when a navigation channel is dredged in the vicinity of the a harbor entrance. The cross sections of harbor boundary are considered to be partial or full reflection in this study. The numerical simulation has been performed by the boundary element method, which is to discrete segments of pit- and harbor- boundary with the algorism of auto generated elements. The incident wave conditions are specified using discretized forms of the Mitsuyasu's frequency spectrum and directional function. The results of the present numerical simulation agreed well with those of the published experimental data. It is shown that the ratios of wave height reduction are about 20% for the case of fully reflecting boundary, and 10% for the case of partially reflecting boundary by the effect of placing a pit, respectively.

  • Services for navigation and entertainment through AI-based voice user interface devices are becoming popular in the connected car system. Given the classification of VUI agent developers as IT companies and automakers, this study explores attributes of agent persona and user experience that impact the driver's perceived safety and satisfaction. Participants of a car simulator experiment performed entertainment and navigation tasks, and evaluated the perceived safety and satisfaction. Results of regression analysis showed that credibility of the agent developer, warmth and attractiveness of agent persona, and efficiency and care of the UX dimension showed significant impact on the perceived safety. The determinants of perceived satisfaction were unity of auto-agent makers and gender as predisposing factors, distance in the agent persona, and convenience, efficiency, ease of use, and care in the UX dimension. The contributions of this study lie in the discovery of the factors required for developing conversational VUI into the autonomous driving environment.
