One of the major advancements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is the use of Internet of Drones (IoD), which combines the Internet of Things (IoT) and drone technology. IoD technology is especially important for efficiently and economically operating C4ISR operations in actual battlefields supporting various combat situations. The purpose of this study is to solve the problems of limited battery capacity of drones and lack of budgeting criteria for military drone transcription, introduction, and operation. If the mission area is defined and corresponding multi-drone hovering check points and mission completion time limits are set, then an energy and time co-optimized scheduling and operation control scheme is needed. Because such a scheme does not exist, in this paper, a Drone Force Deployment Optimization (DFDO) scheme is proposed to help schedule multi-drone operation scheduling and networked based remote multi-drone control.

In this paper, we have undertaken a comprehensive investigation into the current state of anti-drone technology due to the increasing concerns and risks associated with the widespread use of drones. We carefully analyze anti-drone technology, dividing it into three crucial domains: detection, identification, and neutralization methods. This categorization enables us to delve into intricate technical details, highlighting the diverse techniques used to counter evolving drone threats. Additionally, we explore the legal and regulatory aspects of implementing anti-drone technology. Our research also envisions potential directions for advancing and evolving anti-drone tech to ensure its effectiveness in an ever-changing threat environment.

As drone industry increase with the advent of the 4th industrial revolution, yet ensured the safety of a drone crashing and incurring accidents which may result in significant damage to human life and assets. Thus, the authentication of drone safety is very urgent. For this reason, many countries are in need of institutional improvement in the aspect of authentication/legal systems by considering the importance of safety for drone. In this study, the regulations, research, and standards concerning drone safety are compared and analyzed. The analysis results can be used for improving the regulations of drone safety and standardization. The study can be contributed to invigorate drone industry by ensuring drone safety.

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.

Recently Drone technology is emerging as an alternative new way of distribution systems services. Amazon, Google which are global network chain distribution companies are developing an idea of Drone based delivery service and applied for patent for Drone distribution systems in USA. In this paper, we investigate a way to adopt Drone system to Air Cargo logistics, in particular, drone system based on combination of Light ID and RFID technology in the management procedure in stock warehouse. Also we explain the expected impact of Drone systems to customs declaration process. In this paper, we address the investigated limitations of Drone by the Korean Aviation Act as well as suggest the directions of future research for application of Drone to Air logistics industry with investigated limitations.

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.

In this research, we suggest a real-time tele-driving system for unmanned drone operations using the LTE communication system. The drone operator is located 180km away and controls the altitude and position of the drone with a 50ms time delay. The motion data and video from the drone is streamed to the operator. The video is played on the operator's head-mounted display (HMD) and the motion data emulates the drone on the simulator for the operator. In general, a drone is operated using RF signal and the maximum distance for direct control is limited to 2km. For long range drone control over 2km, an auto flying mode is enabled using a mission plan along with GPS data. In an emergency situation, the autopilot is stopped and the "return home" function is executed. In this research, the immersion tele-driving system is suggested for drone operation with a 50ms time delay using LTE communication. A successful test run of the suggested tele-driving system has already been performed between an operator in Daejeon and a drone in Inje (Gangwon-Do) which is approximately 180km apart.

Drones will evolve from military to personal or social purposes. How can people socially interact with a drone that is familiar to them? This study explored the social proximity of human drone interaction with safety glass wall between participants and drone. The experiment results showed that drone's altitude, size and gender factor did not significantly affect social proxemics as to what extent participants got closer to hovering drones by the limitation of the distance from the safety wall. However, it shows a tendency that participants more closely approached an eye-level drone compared with an overhead drone, and females tended to approach more closely males. This study consequently demonstrated that most participants are nearly ready to allow a near field operation of social drone under safe conditions.

drones are used in a variety of fields, including business, leisure, lifesaving, and war. Various research using drones is being conducted in the military. In particular, the use of drones in 『Manned-Unmanned Complex combat performance plan』, powered by various unmanned vehicles deployed in the Army TIGER system, is expected to be a major factor realizing the Army's future combat performance that minimizes damage to ally combat troops while causing maximum damage to the enemy. As the deployment of various systems progresses, combat performance methods utilizing each system are evolving, but there is a lack of research to identify and resolve limitations in the perspective of unmanned vehicle operators. Based on the Ukrainian military's FPV drone combat case, we would like to make suggestions from the operator's perspective on overcoming perspective limitations through the introduction of FPV and the designation of military drone frequency.

This research explored methods for improvements to be made within the field of drone usage within the construction industry based on an investigation of factors which limit their efficiency and productivity. Limiting factors and improvement measures were presented in terms of technology, service, law and policy for employing drones at construction sites. Our first suggestion is, from a technical point of view, that companies need to expand professional manpower and infrastructure for systematic management. Second, in terms of service expansion, it is necessary to have management capabilities for operation such as the use of drones with enhanced safety and reinforced on-site education and personal information management. Third, in terms of legal and institutional support measures, it is necessary to prepare a plan for reforming the legal system for revitalization and to expand the training of professional manpower. This study may contribute not only to the development of drone technology, but also to effectively respond to various problems that appear at construction sites.
