Optimal collision avoidance algorithm for unmanned aerial vehicles based on proportional navigation guidance law is investigated this paper. Although proportional navigation guidance law is widely used in missile guidance problems, it can be used in collision avoidance problem by guiding the relative velocity vector to collision avoidance vector. The optimal navigation coefficient can be obtained if an obstacle if an obstacle moves at constant velocity vector. The stability of the proposed algorithm is also investigated. The stability can be obtained by choosing a proper navigation coefficient.

본 연구에서는 광산안전관리를 위한 충돌방지시스템의 개발 현황과 적용사례를 분석하였다. 광업 선진국인 미국과 호주에서 사용하는 충돌방지시스템의 용어를 정의하고 이용되는 센서 기술들을 비교하였다. 또한 해외의 광산 회사들이 개발한 충돌방지시스템인 $MineAlert^{TM}$ Collision Awareness System, Cat $MineStar^{TM}$, Intelligent Proximity Detection 기술 등에 대해 소개하였다. 국내 광업 분야에서는 충돌방지시스템을 개발한 사례가 없었으며 건설과 철도 분야에서 이와 유사한 개념의 시스템을 확인할 수 있었다. 충돌방지시스템을 도입하면 광산에서 발생할 수 있는 충돌사고를 방지하여 작업자의 안전을 개선시킬 수 있을 것이며, 해외의 개발 사례를 통해 국내 광산 환경에 적합한 센서 기술을 개발하고 적용하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Evaluating the risk of collision quantitatively plays a key role in developing the expert system of navigation and collision avoidance. This study analysed thoroughly how to determine the threshold function related to the avoidance time as described in the new evaluation of collision risk using sech function, and developed the appropriate equation as applicable.

An expert system of collision avoidance developed by CLIPS and Visual C++ is continuously introduced in this paper. Further, a simulation function of collision avoidance is added to the expert system, the function can simulate the avoidance actions of own ship and a specific target of a period of future time. This function can help navigators to estimate collision risk and make proper collision avoidance actions in dangerous situations for navigational safety of ships. Furthermore, navigational rules can also be evaluated during the process of simulation.

This paper is focused on dynamic modeling and control system design as well as vision based collision avoidance for multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Multi-rotor UAVs are defined as rotary-winged UAVs with multiple rotors. These multi-rotor UAVs can be utilized in various military situations such as surveillance and reconnaissance. They can also be used for obtaining visual information from steep terrains or disaster sites. In this paper, a quad-rotor model is introduced as well as its control system, which is designed based on a proportional-integral-derivative controller and vision-based collision avoidance control system. Additionally, in order for a UAV to navigate safely in areas such as buildings and offices with a number of obstacles, there must be a collision avoidance algorithm installed in the UAV's hardware, which should include the detection of obstacles, avoidance maneuvering, etc. In this paper, the optical flow method, one of the vision-based collision avoidance techniques, is introduced, and multi-rotor UAV's collision avoidance simulations are described in various virtual environments in order to demonstrate its avoidance performance.

This study addresses autonomous ship collision avoidance in narrow channels using curvilinear coordinates. Navigation in narrow channels or fairways is known to be much more difficult and challenging compared with navigation in the open sea. It is not straightforward to apply the existing collision avoidance framework designed for use in the open sea to collision avoidance in narrow channels due to the complexity of the problem. In this study, to generalize the autonomous navigation procedure for collision avoidance in narrow channels, we introduce a curvilinear coordinate system for collision-free path planning using a parametric curve, B-spline. To demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, ship traffic simulations were performed and the results are presented.

This study presents an automatic collision avoidance algorithm for autonomous navigation of unmanned surface vessels. The performance of the collision avoidance algorithm is heavily dependent on the estimation quality of the course and speed of traffic ships because collision avoidance maneuvers should be determined based on the predicted motions of the traffic ships and their trajectory uncertainties. In this study, the collision avoidance algorithm is implemented based on the Probabilistic Velocity Obstacle (PVO) approach considering the maritime collision regulations (COLREGs). In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithm, an extensive set of simulations was conducted and the results are discussed.

This paper intends to develop a Prototype Expert Collision Avoidance System by introducing expert system techniques into the decision block of anti-collision loop. The problem domain of this study is characterized and specified by combining the concepts of anti-collision loop and knowledge -based system for collision avoidance. Domain in knowledge which may originates from the appropriate sources such as the International Regulations for Preventing Collision at Sea 1972, Marine Traffic Laws, and many texts on the subject of anticollision navigation and good seamanship is acquired and formalized into the knowledge-base system using production rule. Finally, a Prototype Expert Collision Avoidance System is built by using the CLIPS, developed by AIS NASA written in and fully integrated with the C language, and some test-and-run results of the system are demonstrated and examined. The author considers the proposed system which is named PECAS to be meaningful as a test bed for a further refined Expert Collision Avoidance System on board the Automated Ship.

본 연구에서는 교항하는 두 선박 간의 충돌 회피에 적용 가능한 해석적 기법에 바탕을 둔 피항 조선 알고리듬을 소개한다. 충돌 회피를 위하여 두 선박 간의 최소이격거리를 설정하고 교항하는 두 선박의 적절한 피항 조선을 통해 안전하고 효과적인 피항이 가능하도록 하였다. 이의 구현을 위하여 1) 선박의 운항속도를 조절하는 속도 변화에 의한 충돌회피 기법과 2) 선박의 선수각을 변경하여 침로를 변경하는 충돌회피 기법을 고려하였고, 두 선박의 기하학적 배치를 감안하여 충돌 회피를 위해 조선 동작을 개시하는 피항 개시거리를 해석적으로 전개하였다. 제안한 기법의 타당성 검증을 위하여 다양한 교항 시나리오를 설정하고 이에 대한 수치 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다.

선박의 충돌회피 알고리즘은 인적 요인에 의한 해난사고를 방지하고, 보다 효과적이고 안전한 운항을 위해 개발되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 충돌사고의 위험성을 줄이고, 안전운항을 지원하기 위하여, 베이지안 추정 이론을 이용하여 충돌 위험도를 추정하는 알고리즘을 고안한다. 기존의 선박 충돌 회피를 시스템보다 안전한 충돌 회피를 위해서 베이지안 추정 이론을 이용하여 충돌 위험도를 계산하고 일정 시간 이후에 타선들의 위치 및 속도정보와 자선의 위치 및 속도정보를 이용하여 충돌 위험도를 예측함으로써 보다 안전하고 효율적인 충돌 위험도를 결정한다. 본 논문에서 타선박의 항해정보는 AIS 정보를 가정하였고, 기존의 DCPA와 TCPA를 이용한 퍼지 추론 방법보다 효율적으로 충돌 위험도를 추정할 수 있다.
