This study started with the background that future South Korean military organizations should develop a complex system linking unmanned systems by analyzing and considering cases using "drone," which has recently become an essential means of war. In 2014 and 2022, South Korea is facing serious security threats from North Korean drones that have recently invaded South Korea's airspace in a row. If a North Korean drone was loaded with explosives and poisonous gas and invaded our airspace, the damage would be more serious. Furthermore, what the Azerbaijan-Armenian War of 2020 and the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war have in common is that battles using "combat drones" are underway. Watching this shift in the domestic and overseas war paradigm, drones have become essential for military operations. In the context of a "ceasefire" and the military environment on the Korean Peninsula, South Korea should actively develop "Combat drones" that take into account precise strikes and portability against targets linked to military drones.

Anti-drone (anti-drone) is at the center of the debate over the failure to shoot down a North Korean drone that invaded the metropolitan area at the end of 2022. Anti-drone is a means of detecting and restraining drone flights in unauthorized airspace. Anti-drone technology is a key defense system for drone technology that is essential in the current illegal situation of various drones. We must be alert in the war in Ukraine, where the role of drones has increased. Drone attacks, which are not easy to defend, may determine the victory or defeat of the war. Competition for anti-drone technology development in countries around the world will rise. When new anti-drone technology emerges, drones that go beyond it will be developed. This study presented the current status of anti-drone by analyzing the defense system of domestic drones.

Drones in the contemporary landscape have transcended their initial public utility, expanding into various industries and making significant inroads into the private sector. The majority of commercially available drones are presently equipped with GPS receivers to relay location signals from artificial satellites, aiming to inform users about the drone's whereabouts. However, a notable drawback arises from the considerable distance over which these location signals travel, resulting in a weakened signal intensity. This limitation introduces vulnerabilities, allowing for the possibility of location manipulation and jamming attacks if the drone receives a stronger signal than the intended location signal from satellites. Thus, this paper focuses on the safety assessment of drones relying on GPS-based location acquisition and addresses potential vulnerabilities in wireless communication scenarios. Targeting commercial drones, the paper analyzes and empirically demonstrates the feasibility of GPS spoofing attacks. The outcomes of this study are anticipated to serve as foundational experiments for conducting more realistic vulnerability analysis and safety evaluations.

People may operate unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones) thousands of miles from the drone's location. Drones were first used (like balloons) for surveillance. By 2001, the United States began arming drones with missiles and using them to strike targets during combat in Afghanistan. By mid-2010, over forty states and other entities possessed drones, many with the capability of launching missiles and dropping bombs. Each new development in military weapons technology invites assessment of the relevant international law. This Insight surveys the international law applicable to the recent innovation of weaponizing drones. In determining what international law rules govern drone use, the most salient feature is not the fact that drones are unmanned. The fact drones carry no human operator may be the most important new technological breakthrough, but the key feature for international law purposes is the type of weaponry drones carry. Whether law enforcement rules govern drone use depends on the situation and not necessarily who is operating the drone. Battlefield weapons may also be lawfully used before an armed conflict in the following situations: when initiating self-defense under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter; when authorized by the UN Security Council; when a government seeks to suppress internal armed conflict; and, perhaps, when a state is invited to assist a government in suppressing internal armed conflict. The rules governing resort to force in self-defense are found in Article 51 of the UN Charter and a number of decisions by international courts and tribunals. Commentators continue to debate whether drone technology represents the next revolution in military affairs. Regardless of the answer to that question, drones have not created a revolution in legal affairs. The current rules governing battlefield launch vehicles are adequate for regulating resort to drones. More research must be undertaken, however, to understand the psychological effects of deploying unmanned vehicles and the effects on drone operators of sustained, close visual contact with the aftermath of drone attacks.

Since Amazon announced plans to deliver goods to customers using drones, many countries and companies have become interested in drone logistics delivery services and have begun testing drone delivery for various goods based on service scenarios. Whenever there is news of a successful drone delivery anywhere in the world, people increasingly expect the delivery of goods through drones. Although delivery services using drones are currently in a trial-and-error stage, given technical limitations and institutional and social constraints, a complete shift to drone logistics delivery is not yet possible. In anticipation of the drone logistics delivery service, recent drone delivery tests, current service trends, and requirements for drone delivery service will be examined.

Recently, unmanned aerial vehicle, also known as drone is being used in variety of areas. Previously drones are used as military purposes. After unmanned technology went abroad to civil, drones are used as multipurpose such as hobby, business and other more. Even though drones are very useful in many areas, problems such as safety and personal privacy infringement raised new social issues. In this thesis it will analyze and suggest solutions to the social problems of personal privacy infringement which occurred by drone filming. This thesis will also suggest that new law of drone safety must legislate quickly. Drone is exploration of new filed. Varies of new technology help to grow drone industries. Drone is able to complete tasks which are impossible or very difficult to do. To constantly grow drone industries, people must have solutions for problems of drone. If people can figure out solutions problem of drone which introduced by this thesis, value of drone will grow even more.

Drones are now widely used in civilian applications such as filming, leisure, agricultural control, monitoring, and the generation of 3D-spatial information, deviating only from military drones. In the field of logistics, prototypes are emerging in the area of logistics transportation, and to develop a future transportation service under the name of a drone tax, each country is introducing its first flight results using its own unique drones. In this paper, we review the domestic and overseas trends of drone delivery service technology, which requires various capabilities such as automatic flight, and review the related core technologies. We then propose the flight capability and road map of a drone delivery service according to the detailed conditions such as the flight area, visibility, and flight method. Additionally, in connection with the postal processing of the Korea Post Office, which would be a main demand for this type of service, we describe a method for realizing a drone delivery service based on the structure, scenario, and deployment of the drone delivery system.

Drones are controlled by the remote pilot from the ground stations using the radio control or autonomously following the pre-programmed flight plans. In this paper, we develop a method and an optimal path search system for providing 3D augmented reality flight (ARF) images for safe and efficient flight control of drones. The developed system consisted of the drone, the ground station and user terminals, and the optimal path search server. We use the Dijkstra algorithm to find the optimal path considering the drone information, flight information, environmental information, and flight mission. We generate a 3D augmented reality flight (ARF) image overlaid with the path information as well as the drone information and the flight information on the flight image received from the drone. The ARF image for adjusting the drone is generated by overlaying route information, drone information, flight information, and the like on the image captured by the drone.
