  • This paper proposed an application of agile management method to resolve the electrical system issues identified during the mass production phase of aged aircraft performance improvement. The proposed method was applied from issue analysis to on-site verification and testing stage, before the formal configuration control process. At this time, the project was carried out by setting a sprint period to complete the verification according to requirements through daily scrum and sprint review. As a result, It was verified that the wiring installation of the aircraft, which was the output of the sprint, met requirements within the defined sprint period.

  • In this paper, we propose an image-based output feedback robust controller of robot manipulators which have bounded parametric uncertainty. The proposed controller contains an integral action and high-gain observer in order to improve steady state error of joint position and performance deterioration due to measurement errors of joint velocity. The stability of the closed-loop system is proved by Lyapunov approach. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated by simulations on a 5-link robot manipulators with two degrees of freedom.

  • In this paper, we implemented a flight posture simulator that intuitively understands aircraft flight posture and visualizes the principle of motion. The proposed system operates the 6 - axis motion platform according to the change of the navigation information and transmits the flight attitude to the simulator using the gyro sensor. A gyro sensor and an acceleration sensor are used together to analyze the attitude of the aircraft. The reason is that the gyro sensor has a cumulative error in the integration process. And the accelerometer sensor was compensated by using the complementary filter because noise was serious due to short term vibration. Using the compensated sensor information, the motion platform is operated by calculating the angle to be transmitted to the 6-axis motor. And visualization result is implemented using OpenGL. The results of this study can be used as teaching materials for students related to aviation in the future.

  • Fingerprinting is a widely used positioning technology for received signal strength (RSS) based wireless local area network (WLAN) positioning system. Though spatial RSS variation is the key factor of the positioning technology, temporal RSS variation needs to be considered for more accuracy. To deal with the spatial and temporal RSS characteristics within a unified framework, this paper proposes an extended signal propagation mode (ESPM) and a fingerprint generation method. The proposed spatiotemporal fingerprint generation method consists of two algorithms running in parallel; Kalman filtering at several measurement-sampling locations and Kriging to generate location fingerprints at dense reference locations. The two different algorithms are connected by the extended signal propagation model which describes the spatial and temporal measurement characteristics in one frame. An experiment demonstrates that the proposed method provides an improved positioning accuracy.

  • This paper describes an implementation of a wide-range dimming controller of a LED backlight for Avionics applications such as the control data unit(CDU) and multi-function display(MFD). A feedback controller using a light sensor is proposed to control the brightness in the low dimming range. The proposed controller provides an improved control performance in the wide dimming range of 1:3000 even under the temperature variations. The experimental results are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed control system.

  • For the phase measurement in the radar system using the magnetron pulse source, the STALO (Stable Local Oscillator) frequency need to be controlled to provide the stable intermediate frequency. In radar receiver, AFC(Automatic Frequency Control) circuit detects the transmitting frequency change and controls the STALO frequency to keep the intermediate frequency stable. In this paper, we designed and implimented AFC circuits for radar receiver. The frequency deviation is detected and compared with the reference frequency and the STALO frequency is controlled by the digital command signal.

  • This paper present the brief generation process of system requirements or mart UAV from a development obejective. The current Snart UAV requirements deal with the restricted life cycle from development to test and verification exclusive of full life cycle beacuse of the new technology demonstration research program funded by goverments. The Smart UAV system consists of flight vechicle, avionics, communication link, payload, ground control stationand ground supporting system. In thus paper, top-down flown requirememts are intoduced how to allocate to each sub-system.

  • As the use of software is increasing in aircraft system, an exposure to the threat of safety and security also continues to grow. Although certification criteria for software safety such as DO-178C have already been established, specific certification criteria for software security have not yet been included. Recently DO-326A, DO-356 and DO-355 have been published separately for aircraft and system airworthiness security certification criteria. However, to comply individual certification criteria and procedures, it requires the additional cost and effort. Therefore, this paper proposes the efficient integrated certification criteria saving cost, effort and time by combining the certification criteria for software safety and security.

  • Recently, autopilot is essential to reduce pilot's workload and increase flight safety. Avionics system of the small aircraft also has progressively adopted centralized multi-processor and multi-process computing architectures similar to the integrated modular avionics of B-777. It is increased more and more that importance of the flight control system. In this paper, the performance of the autopilot for the small aircraft has been verified with Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation(HILS). Also, the autopilot algorithm that is operated in the Flight Control Computer(FCC) for the Fly by Wire(FBW) was verified with PILS and compared with the HILS results for the several commercial autopilots.
