This paper presents a new attitude stabilization and control of an unmanned helicopter based on neural network compensation. A systematic derivation on the dynamics of an unmanned small-scale helicopter is performed. Combined rotor-fuselage-tail dynamics is derived in body-fixed reference frame with its origin at the C.G. of the helicopter. And the resulting nonlinear equation of motion consists of 6-DOF air vehicle dynamics as well as the rotor flapping and engine torque equations. A simulation model was modified using the existing simulator for an unmanned helicopter dynamic model, which reflects the unmanned test helicopter(CNUHELI). The dynamic response of the refined model was compared with the flight test data. It can be shown that a good coincidence was accomplished between the real unmanned helicopter system and the mathematical model. This dynamic model was linearized for classical controller design using small perturbation method. A Neuro-PD control system was designed for both longitudinal and lateral flight modes, and the results were compared with the PD-only control response. Simulation results show that the proposed Neuro-PD control system demonstrates better performance.

This paper describes the development procedure for Tail-Fan system which has the role of anti-torque and yaw control in helicopter. A detailed design of Tail-Fan system was done and structural analysis also was done. After finishing detailed design, Detailed drawings were generated for manufacture. Through detailed design and manufacture, required techniques were achieved for helicopter development. After validation through performance and stability test, acquired techniques will be applied to development of Korea Multi-role Helicopter(KMH) which will be launched

Nowadays many peoples are using helicopter in various fields, not only military use but also common people applications such as air-measurement, photography, transportation of goods and persons, saving life and fire fighting etc. And it will be expected more popular than now. Most important part of helicopter to increasing performance and to reducing noise is rotor hub-system. Hub system consists of rotor-blade and rotor-hub. We participate to develop next-generation rotor hub system with elastomeric bearing, part of rotor hub. In this paper we introduce about the role and shape of elastomeric bearing in next-generation helicopter hub system. Then we study about bearing-material requirements and measuring methods. Finally we represent some experimental results.

The structural modification to install a heavy sensor was made at the front extremities of the foreign-produced helicopter operated in the Korea Navy Mounting the sensor directly to the nose structure is unlikely to be practical because it lowers a dynamic mode of the airframe close to rotor blade passing frequencies, leading to increased helicopter vibration. Unfortunately we have no information on dynamic characteristics of the imported helicopter. So the experimental modal model derived from shake testing on the overall airframe of a working helicopter was used to solve the sensor Installation problems. The sensitivity analysis was done to evaluate what the best of modification woo)d be. Simple ID model and experimental modal data for mount system with sensor were Incorporated into overall dynamic model to assess the effects of the sensor installation on helicopter. Modal testing for the modified helicopter shows that the airframe modes are sufficiently displaced from rotor passing frequencies. The mount system has been proven fight to be sufficiently stable to meet vibration-level requirement for all required operational profiles.

This paper developed Helicopter Chassis Dynamometer System(HCDS) to perform the bench test of the scaled rotor blade and to design a scaled model helicopter flight test bed and accomplished the scaled helicopter ground test. The scaled helicopter should be checked the relation of thrust and power input to maintain regular RPM by collective pitch angle versus throttle input. It showed hovering performance results of IGE with OGE, the max. F.M. was 0.76 without ground effect. The results of the chassis dynamometer test of scaled helicopter will usefully apply to design the scaled helicopter and evaluate the rotor blade performance.

We study the possibility of entering into helicopter market with respect to demand, industry structure and infrastructure. In conclusion, it is possible to enter into it based on domestic demand if we complement some technology, financial assistance system and helicopter operation related regulation. Strategy is made for helicopter industry to be a growth driver and then we suggest five projects to carry out it. Those are lasting creation of helicopter demand, possession of core part material and competitive technology, construction of airworthiness certification system and infrastructure for activation of helicopter operation, improvement of financial assistance system and finally strengthening policy modulation between civil, army, and government.

Since the global economic crisis in year 2008, the world civil helicopter market has been growing recently. According to the market outlook in the next decade, the demand of civil helicopter will be driven by the demand of Private & Corporate, Oil & Gas, Off-shore and EMS(Emergency Medical Service) usages. On the other side, the demand of military market will be driven by the modification and upgrading for life extension or performance enhancement than the new helicopter development for replacing old models. To summarize these situations, the demand of MRO(Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul) market has also been on the rise because of the demand due to above several usages in civil side and the life-extension in military side. Through the MRO market analysis for characteristics, developmental trends and a supply chain, this paper describes that the potential of MRO business is considerably large as a propulsive power of domestic helicopter industry. And also, it proposes the construction direction of MRO network because the domestic industry must make the developmental awareness and reliability a stepping-stone towards own helicopter.

Korean Air has set the goal of the first stage of the development of unmanned helicopters to perform in hovering flight by remote control. In order to achieve the development goal, Korean Air carried out system integration, ground test, and safety wire test in sequence after carrying out programmed depot maintenance and aircraft modification of manned aircraft, and verified the controllability and flight safety of the unmanned helicopter system step by step. In particular, it was confirmed that the safety wire test technique used in the final stage of verification was an effective method to verify flight safety and controllability for a fully unmanned helicopter system.

Unmanned Helicopter has several abilities such as vertical Take off, hovering, low speed flight at low altitude. Such vehicles are becoming popular in actual applications such as search and rescue, aerial reconnaissance and surveillance. These vehicles also used under risky environments without threatening the life of a pilot. Since a small aerial vehicle is very sensitive to environmental conditions, it is generally known that the flight control is very difficult problems. In this paper, a flight control system was designed for an unmanned helicopter. This paper was concentrated on describing the mechanical design, electronic equipments and their interconnections for acquiring autonomous flight. The design methodologies and performance of the helicopter were illustrated and verified with a linearized equation of motion. The LQG based estimator and controller was designed and tested for this unmanned helicopter.
