군용 전투 차량은 전시 상황에 여러 종류의 장애물들이 존재하는 험로를 주행해야 한다. 이런 환경에서는 전투 차량의 무거운 차체와 험로의 큰 장애물로 인해 큰 반력이 발생한다. 차륜형 견마 로봇에는 큰 장애물을 극복하기 위해서 회전형 현가장치가 적용되고, 미끄럼 조향 방식이 적용된다. 본 논문에서는 실시간 해석에 유리하도록 모델을 단순화시킨 방법을 제시하고, 기존 다물체 동역학 모델과 비교를 통해서 신뢰도 및 효율성을 확인하였다.

Recently, unmanned electric vehicles are increasingly interested among all of the world since they can provide low exhaust gas, high efficiency and high mobility. To exploit their silent maneuver and high mobility, unmanned electric vehicles have been developed since early 1980's for military. However, it is not easy to design and control a power system satisfying operating duration and mobility performance requirements based on various mission profiles for military use under the conditions of limited space and weight. Moreover it is also necessary to prevent over-charge, over-discharge and voltage unbalance between cells of battery to secure high voltage battery which is serially connected with muti-cells. In this paper, we presents power control and optimal management method for the dog-horse robot which adopts a electric power system and suggests a guide-line to manage and control to secure high voltage battery.

In this paper, we develop a detailed full dynamic model which includes various rough terrains for 6-wheel skid-steering mobile robot based on the real experimental autonomous vehicle called Dog-Horse Robot. We also design a co-simulation for performance comparison of path tracking algorithms. The control architecture in the co-simulation can be divided into two levels. The high level control is the closed-loop control of path tracking to follow a given path, and the low level is concerned about torque control of wheel motion. The simulation using the mechanical data of the Dog-Horse Robot is performed under the Matlab/Simulink environment. We also simulate and evaluate the performance of the model based adaptive controller.

This paper presents a motor selection technique for a manipulator design that is used in a multipurpose dog-horse robot. Since the dynamics of a manipulator and its servo drives are closely related to each other, it requires a repetitive analysis to determine a suitable motor. In order to simplify this procedure, Straete et al. proposed a simple normalization method to separate the load dependent terms and the motor dependent terms. This technique is adopted in this paper for selecting a motor in designing a manipulator.

견마로봇의 통신시스템은 견마로봇이 경계작전을 통해 얻은 멀티미디어 데이터를 지휘국으로 전송하는 상향링크 위주의 시스템으로, 현재의 하향링크 위주의 와이브로 시스템을 견마로봇 통신시스템에 이용하기 위해서는 많은 데이터를 전송하는 상향링크 위주의 전송변수를 갖는 시스템으로 재설계해야 한다. 본 논문은 상향링크에 중점을 둔 견마로봇 시스템에 적합한 전송변수를 결정하였다. WiBre 프레임 내의 슬롯의 개수는 하향링크시 6개 상향링크시 30개로 하였고, AMC, PUSC 전송방식 등을 이용하여 견마로봇의 요구 데이터율을 만족하는 변조율과 부호화율에 맞는 Nep(실효부호패킷의 크기)를 결정하였다. 전산모의실험은 ITU-R. M1225 채널모델을 기반으로 각 전송방식별 Nep와 견마로봇의 이동속도에 따른 전산모의실험을 하였고 설계한 통신변수의 성능분석을 하였다.

In this paper, it is suggested a method of mission planning and management for robots based on the unit mission. In order to make robots execute given missions continuously as time goes by, a new concept for planning the mission which is composed of one or more unit missions and an automatic mission management scheme are developed. For managing robot's missions in real time, six management methods are devised as well in order to cope with the mismatches, which occur frequently during the mission execution, as to the initial plan. Without the operator's involvement, any mismatch can be adjusted automatically by applying one of the mission management methods. The suggested concept of mission planning and mission management methods based on the unit mission are partially realized in the Dog-Horse robot system and it is checked that it can be a viable one for developing effective robot operation systems.

In this paper, a new user interface for unmanned combat vehicle(UCV) is developed based on the mission planning and global path planning. In order to complete a tactical mission given to an UCV, it is essential to design an effective interface scheme between human and UCV considering changing combat environment and characteristics of the mission. The user interface is mainly composed of two parts, mission planning and global path planning, since they are important factors to accomplish combat missions. First of all, mission types of UCV are identified. Based on mission types, the concept of mission planning for UCVs is presented. Then a new method for global path planning is devised. It is capable of dealing with multiple grid maps to consider various combat factors so that paths suitable for the mission be generated. By combining these two, a user interface method is suggested. It is partially implemented in the Dog-horse Robot of ADD and its effectiveness is verified.
