This paper describes development of automatic flight control system for an unmanned target drone which is operated by Korean army as for anti-air gun shooting training. Current target drone is operated by pilot control of on-board servo motor via remote control system. Automatic flight control system for the target drone greatly reduces work load of ground pilot and can increase application area of the drone. Most UAVs being operated now days use high-priced sensors as AHRS and IMU to measure the attitude, but those are costly. This paper introduces the development of low-cost automatic flight control system with low-cost sensors. The integrated automatic flight control system has been developed by integrating combining power module, switching module, monitoring module and RC receiver as an one module. The performance of automatic flight control system is verified by flight test.

본 논문은 군에서 운용중인 대공포 사격 훈련용으로 개발한 무인 표적기용 자동비행시스템 개발에 관한 논문이다. 조종사에 의해 수동으로 운용중인 표적기를 자동화함으로써 조종사 측면에서는 비행업무를 경감시키고, 군 측면에서는 사격훈련 예산절감이라는 장점을 가지게 된다. 현재까지 개발된 대부분의 UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)는 항공기 자세를 측정하기 위해 AHRS(Attitude & Heading Reference System)와 IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit)등의 고가의 센서를 장착하고 있지만 이를 장착하고 무인기를 사격훈련용으로 사용하기에는 예산절감이라는 목적에 적합하지 않다. 이에 본 논문은 저가의 센서를 장착하고 자동비행이 가능하도록 저가형 자동비행시스템을 개발하였으며, 자동비행 컴퓨터를 포함한 센서, 전원모듈, 스위칭 모듈, 모니터링 모듈, RC 수신기를 하나의 모듈로 단일화하여 통합형 자동비행시스템을 개발하였다. 또한 비행시험을 통하여 자동비행시스템 성능을 입증하였다.

This paper presents an integrated navagation control concept for underwater vehicles under high speed navigation circumstance. First of all, in order to control an underwater vehicle with respect to automatic navigation, an integrated navigation control method is suggested in view of synchronous control for course keeping, diving and depth control. An exact nonlinear model equation with six-degree-of-freedom is derived for control algorithm. To identify various hydrodynamic coefficients of the equation, an experimental approach is introduced and results are demonstrated for MANTA type model.

본 논문은 파티클 필터(particle filter)를 이용한 레이저 내비게이션(laser navigation)의 위치측정 성능 향상에 관한 연구이다. 레이저 내비게이션은 무선항법장치(wireless navigation system)로써 무인 자율주행 장치(automatic guided vehicle)의 위치측정 및 제어에 주로 사용되며, 이는 기존의 유선유도장치(wired guidance system)들에 비해 유지보수에 유연하면서도 완전한 자율주행이 가능하다. 하지만 무선항법장치인 레이저 내비게이션은 반응속도가 느리며 고속주행 혹은 회전주행 시에 위치 정밀도가 크게 떨어지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해, 비선형(non-linear)/비가우시안(non-gaussian)의 시스템에서도 강인한 특성을 지닌 파티클 필터를 이용하여 위치 정밀도를 향상시키는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법의 성능을 검증하기 위해, 레이저 내비게이션과 엔코더, 자이로가 장착된 지게차 AGV(automatic guided vehicle)를 사용하였으며, 제안된 방법과 상용화된 레이저 내비게이션의 위치측정 결과를 비교하였다. 실험 결과, 제안된 방법이 상용화된 레이저 내비게이션의 위치 정밀도에 비해 약 66.5% 향상됨을 확인하였다.

In this paper, an adaptive neural network controller and its application to automatic berthing control of ship is presented. The neural network controller is trained online using adaptive interaction technique without any teaching data and off-line training phase. Firstly, the neural networks used to control rudder and propeller during automatic berthing process are presented. Secondly, computer simulations of automatic ship berthing are carried out in Pusan bay to verify the proposed controller under the influence of wind disturbance and measurement noise. The results of simulation show good performance of the developed berthing control system.

As a sense of practical field, most researchers emphasize the importance of safety management to prevent marine accidents. The purpose of this paper is to develope a new safety evaluation method using Safety Index (SI) which is to measure the emotional feeling of navigation officer by traffic situations. In this study, the questionnaires with SI are used to investigate the degree of sensing levels of navigation officers according to the navigation situations. In addition, the traffic data obtained from AIS (Automatic Identification System) data are used to give actual situations in the questionnaire investigation. As results of questionaries investigations based upon the AIS data, it is shown that the Safety Index can be used as a criterion to determine the safety levels of ship navigating in a coastal areas.

When an automatic course keeping is introduced, as is quite popular in modern navigation, the closed-loop control system consists of autopilot device, power unit, steering gear, ship dynamics, and magnetic or gyrocompass. We derive mathematical models of each element of the automatic steering system. We provide a method of theoretical analysis on the propulsive energy loss related to automatic steering of ships in the open seas, taking account of the on-off(non-linear) characteristics of power unit. Also we paid attention to non-linear element installed in autopilot device, which is normally called weather adjuster. Next we make numerical calculation of the effects of autopilot control constants on the propulsive energy loss for two kinds of ship, a fishing boat and an ore carrier. Realistic sea and wind disturbances are employed in the calculation.
