실제 시스템 적용에 있어서, 수중비행체(Underwater Flight Vehicle : UFV)의 자율제어(autonomous control)를 위한 장애물회피(obstacle avoidance) 시스템은 다음과 같은 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 즉, 소나(sonar)는 지역적 탐색영역 내의 장애물 정보만을 제공할 수 있으므로 지역적 정보를 가지며, 에너지 소비 및 음향학적 소음이 적은 시스템이 필요하므로 연속적인 제어입력을 요구한다. 나아가, 구조와 파라메터의 관점에 있어서 용이한 설계 절차를 요구한다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 진화 전략(Evolution Strategy : ES) 및 퍼지논리 제어기(Fuzzy Logic Controller : FLC)를 이용하는 지능형 장애물회피 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해 UFV 장애물회피가 수행되었다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 알고리즘이 실제 시스템에 존재하는 문제점들을 효과적으로 해결하고 있음을 보여준다.

Obstacle defines all fixed and mobile objects, or parts thereof, that are located on an area intended for the surface movement of aircraft or extend above a defined surface intended to protect aircraft in flight or stand outside those defined surfaces and that have been assessed as being a hazard to air navigation. The airspace around airports are maintained free from obstacles so as to permit the intended aeroplane operations at the airports to be conducted safely and to prevent the airports from becoming unusable by the growth of obstacles around the airports. This is achieved by establishing a series of obstacle limitation surfaces or airspace imaginary surfaces that define the limits to which objects may project into the airspace. This is a case study that shows an application of obstacle limitation criteria, which must be maintained free from an critical obstacle, for specific conditions of two airports. For the purpose of the application, aeronautical studies/flight safety influence assessments were used to identify possible solutions and select a solution that is acceptable without degrading aviation safety.

Obstacle defines all fixed and mobile objects, or parts thereof, that are located on an area intended for the surface movement of aircraft or extend above a defined surface intended to protect aircraft in flight or stand outside those defined surfaces and that have been assessed as being a hazard to air navigation. Aircraft operations are based on electronic supporting systems using radio frequencies to assist pilots. These frequencies can receive outside interference that change their courses or power, such as distortion, attenuation or reinforcements by an obstacle. This is a preliminary case study that shows the relation of instrument flight procedures and the degree of interferences introduced by a planned obstacle, which is a main bridge post, within the service volume of the radio navigation aids. For the purpose of this study, the case airport's data and it's VOR/DME and ILS systems' limitations are analyzed, as well as the relation of interferences between the obstacle and navigation aides were reviewed with the internal regulations in Korea.

실제 시스템 적용에 있어서, 수중비행체(Underwater Flight Vehicle : UFV)의 자율제어(autonomous control)를 위한 3-D 장애물회피(obstacle avoidance) 시스템은 다음과 같은 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 즉, 소나(sonar)는 지역적 탐색영역 내에서 장애물의 거리(range)/방위(bearing) 정보를 제공하며, 자율수중운동체(Autonomous Underwater Vehicle : AUV) 관점에서 에너지 소비 및 음향학적 소음이 적은 시스템을 필요로 하며, 최대 피치 및 심도와 같은 UFV 운용 제약조건을 가진다. 나아가, 구조와 파라메터의 관점에 있어서 용이한 설계 절차를 요구한다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 진화 전략(Evolution Strategy : ES) 및 퍼지논리 제어기(Fuzzy Logic Controller : FLC)를 이용하는 지능형 3-D 장애물회피 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해 UFV의 3-D 장애물회피가 수행되었다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 알고리즘이 실제 시스템에 존재하는 문제점들을 효과적으로 해결하고 있음을 보여준다.

송전선은 항공사고를 야기하는 대표적인 장애물로써 인지되며, 비행 중 충돌회피를 위해 송전선의 실시간 탐지는 아주 중요하다. 최근 들어 이러한 비행장애물 회피를 위해 기상조건에 영향을 덜 받으며 주야에 관계없이 데이터 획득이 가능한 라이다의 활용이 증가하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 라이다 데이터를 이용하여 비행장애물 회피를 위해 송전선을 고속으로 탐지하는 방법을 개발하였다. 제안된 방법은 먼저 지표면에서 반사된 점을 필터링 과정을 통해 제거하여 비지면점을 추출하고, 이중에서 분산 행렬의 고유값 비율을 이용하여 선형적으로 분포하는 점들을 추출하고, 마지막으로 송전탑(기둥)이나 굴뚝같이 수직방향으로 선형적으로 분포하는 점들이나 길이가 작은 선형점들을 제거한다. 구현된 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해 송전선이 포함된 영역에서 취득된 실측 및 시뮬레이션 데이터에 적용하였다. 탐지성능은 약 80%정도로 분석되었고, 처리시간은 평균 0.2초가 소요되었다. 향후 제시된 방법을 다양한 시험환경에 대해 실험을 수행하여 개선한다면, 비행장애물 회피용 시스템에 효과적으로 활용될 것을 판단된다.

한국항공우주연구원은 향후 고흥항공센터가 종합적 비행시험센터로서의 역할을 수행할 수 있는 능력을 확보하고자 중장기발전계획수립을 위한 기획연구를 수행하였다. 고흥항공센터가 비행장으로 확장되기 위해서는 필요한 법적 요건을 갖추어야 한다. 즉, 활주로를 비롯한 장비/설비, 장애물제한표면/거리, 비행공역, 제한고도 등 많은 법적 요구사항을 항공법이 규정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이들 요구사항 중 비행장 설치에 비중이 높은 장애물 제한표면에 대하여 기존 활주로의 확장과 신규 대형 활주로 구축을 전제로 한 조사결과를 중점적으로 제시하고자 한다.

For safe walking of the people who are blind, walking assistance robot which can detecting and avoiding the obstacle was investigated. The implemented prototype walking assistance robot consists of a obstacle detecting module, a user interface using acoustic signal and a driving module. The obstacle detecting module uses 6 ultrasonic sensors those located at the front part of the robot can perceive the obstacle which is in 3 meter distances and $180^{\circ}$ degrees. It calculates the distance and degree from the obstacle using TOF (time of flight) method and decides the 3-dimensional location of the obstacle. The obstacle information is delivered to the user using acoustic alarm and guide sound. The robot is designed to avoid by itself when the obstacle is detecting and the user only follows it to safe walking. After the designed robot was implemented, driving and obstacle detecting experiments were carried out. The result showed that the designed walking assistance robot will help the people who are blind to walk around safe.

We implementated an ultrasonic wave cane for the blind. The cane detect walking obstacle and provide a walking direction. The cane used time of flight method of ultrasonic-wave for a measurement of obstacle distance and fluxgate geomagnetic sensor for guidance of walking direction. This system can detect an obstacle of upward, forward, downward and that warn to the blind with vibration, pitch sound. And the blind can know walking direction to voice output. As a result, the blind could efficiently avoid a exposed obstacle, obstacles beyond knee, an exposed street obstacle, a branch of tree person's height and it is usable search for surrounding land mark.

Due to the inherent nature of the low flying UAV, obstacle detection is a fundamental requirement in the flight path to avoid the collision from obstacles as well as manned aircraft. In this paper, a preliminary sensor requirements of an obstacle detection system for UAV in low-altitude flight are analyzed, and the automated obstacle detection sensor system is proposed assessing both passive and active sensors such as EO camera, IR, Laser radar, microwave and millimeter radar. In addition, TCAS (Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System) are reviewed for the collision avoidance of the manned aircraft system. It is suggested that small-sized radar sensor is the best candidate for the smart UAV because an active radar can provide the real-time informations on range and range rate in the all-weather environment. However, an important constraints on small UAV should be resolved in terms of accommodation of the mass, volume, and power allocated in the payload of the UAV system design requirements.

Obstacle Limitation Surface (OLS) is conceptual surface establishing the airspace around aerodromes to be maintained from obstacles to ensure safe aircraft operations. Despite advances in the technologies for aircraft, navigation systems and the development of new flight procedures, the criteria defining OLS have not been amended since its initial establishment, resulting in the overestimation of areas for height restriction. As there were requests to examine OLS at the 12th Air Navigation Conference and the 38th ICAO Assembly, the research on the OLS revision began in earnest and ICAO has proposed Obstacle Free Surface (OFS) and Obstacle Evaluation Surface (OES) as an alternative of the existing OLS. OFS is surfaces where obstacles shall not be permitted, and OES is ones where obstacles be evaluated with an aeronautical study and could be permitted under some conditions. The purpose of this study is to preemptively assess the efficiency and safety of OFS and OES by applying them to the second runway (15L/33R) of Incheon International Airport. The results show that OFS and OES are capable of serving the instrument flight procedure safely with a smaller obstacle clearance area compared to the existing OLS.
