  • 덕티드팬을 추진 장치로 사용하는 소형 무인항공기는 도심 및 협소한 공간에서 정찰 및 감시에 사용 가능하며, 프로펠러에 비해 높은 추진 효율과 추력 특성을 나타낸다. 덕티드팬 무인항공기의 운용 거리와 비행 시간을 증가시키기 위해서는 정지 비행 및 전진 비행시의 추력 특성연구가 중요하며 비행 안정성 확보를 위해서는 비정상 3차원 유동 특성 연구가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 동익과 정익으로 구성된 덕티드팬의 설계 결과 검증과 안정적인 비행 특성을 확인하기 위해 덕티드팬의 추력 특성과 비정상 3차원 유동장을 계측하였다. 덕티드팬의 정지 및 전진 비행시의 추력 특성은 소형 아음속 풍동의 6분력 밸런스 시스템을 이용하여 측정되었고, 비정상 3차원 유동장은 $45^{\circ}$ 경사열선의 프로브 고정법에 의해 분석되었다. 덕티드팬의 덕트와 정익이 추력특성에 다소 큰 영향을 미치며, 정익에 의해 덕티드팬의 안정적인 비행이 가능함을 확인하였다.

  • 무선통신(wireless networks)과 마이크로메카트로닉스 시스템(MEMS; microelectromechanical system)의 발달로 다양한 소형 자동항법 UAV가 개발되어 다양한 목적으로 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 중소규모지역에 대한 지형정보획득을 목적으로 저가의 소형 자율항법 UAV를 개발하고 사전계획된 비행 루트와 실제 비행한 경로를 비교함으로써 비행의 안정성을 평가하였다. 개발 후 비행테스트 결과, 최대항속시간은 1시간, 비행거리는 50km, 비행항로의 수평정확도는 약 ${\pm}6{\sim}8m$, 고도정확도는 약 ${\pm}8m$로 안정된 비행이 가능하였으므로 지형정보에 활용할 수 있는 고해상영상의 획득이 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 이는 200m의 고도로 비행할 경우 $2km{\times}3km$의 지상촬영범위를 약25분 내에 촬영이 가능하다는 의미로 향후 저고도 고해상영상의 획득목적으로 활용이 기대된다.

  • The purpose of this paper is to analyze the static and dynamic stability-of the unmanned airship under development ; the target airship's over-all length of hull is 50m and the maximum diameter is 12.5m. For the analysis, the dynamic model of an airship was defined and both the nonlinear and linear dynamic equations of motion were derived. Two different configuration models (KA002Y and KA003Y) of the airship were used for the target model of the static stability analysis and the dynamic stability analysis. From the result of analyses, though the airship is unstable in static stability, dynamic characteristics of the airship can provide the stable dynamic stability. All of the results, airship models and dynamic flight equations will be an important basement and basic information for the next step of developing the automatic flight control system(AFCS) and the stability augmentation system(SAS) for the unmanned airship as well as for the stratospheric airship in the future.

  • In this study. differences in attention allocation patterns between expert and novIce pilots were investigated by a verbal protocol when pilots were engaged in a task during the instrument flight. Ten pilots including experts and novices were participated to conduct a pre-determined task(a fix-to-fix) on F-5E Cockpit Procedure Trainer Simulator. Experts show better performance as expected with more stable variations in speed. altitude. and attitude. In attention allocation patterns. novices allocated about 83% of attentional resources on the primary instruments (airspeed indicator. altitude indicator. and attitude) relating to the task of the basic flight while experts spent 57%. This difference in the availability of attentional resources allowed expert pilots to accomplish the task better than novices. In other words. training a pilot should consider a program for building up wider instrument scanning patterns to become an expert in a shorter time.

  • Multi-crew Pilot License (MPL) is an international pilot certification adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in 2006 under the recognition of the need for efficient and systematic pilot training including the education of pilots with advanced aviation technology and ability to respond to flight environment, resolution of the human factor problems of pilots, and provision of stable training tools for transport aircraft pilots for potential risk of pilot shortage in the future. South Korea also has prepared a legal basis for operating an MPL system in the Aviation Act in 2009, but there has been no domestic MPL qualifier. The biggest reason for this seems to be the insufficient domestic MPL training system. Therefore, it is necessary to benchmark the international standards of the ICAO, and to promote the development of the Korean MPL training system through revision and supplementation of laws and regulations in consideration of Korean circumstances.

  • 지상국비행종단지령장비는 위성발사체(KSLV)발사 후 비행 중 일어날 수 있는 비상사태 (안전영역을 벗어나거나 지상에서 더 이상 추적이 불가능할 경우)에 대하여 지상통제장치에서 비행종단을 명령하여 비행을 강제로 종단시키는 역할을 한다. 본 글에서는 나로우주센터에서 위성발사체(KSLV) 발사를 위하여 설치 운용될 지상국비행종단지령장비의 설계에 관한 기본사항을 서술하고 있다. 국내 환경에 맞는 최적의 시스템 설계를 위하여 위성발사체의 비행궤적 및 특성을 고려한 운용개념을 먼저 정의하였고, 발사체에 탑재되는 수신부 특성을 고려하여 RF Link Budget 분석 및 송신시스템의 RF 요구 성능, 신뢰도 및 가용도 등을 분석하였다. 본 분석을 바탕으로 위성발사체(KSLV)에 비행종단명령을 안정적으로 생성, 처리하여 전송할 수 있는 각각의 장비를 설계하였다.

  • This paper deals with the early development of the Anuloid, an innovative disk-shaped VTOL aircraft. The Anuloid concept is based on the following three main features: the use of a ducted fan powered by a turboshaft for the lift production to take-off and fly; the Coanda effect that is developed through the circular internal duct and the bottom portion of the aircraft to provide further lift and control capabilities; the adoption of a system of ducted fixed and swiveling radial and circumferential vanes for the anti-torque mechanism and the flight control. The early studies have been focused on the CFD analysis of the Coanda effect and of the control vanes; the flyability analysis of the aircraft in terms of static performances and static and dynamic stability; the preliminary structural design of the aircraft. The results show that the Coanda effect is stable in most of the flight phases, vertical flight has satisfactory flyability qualities, whereas horizontal flight shows dynamic instability, requiring the development of an automatic control system.

  • In this study, we propose a decentralized mathematical model for predictive control of a system of multi-autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones. Being decentralized and autonomous implies that all members make their own decisions and fly depending on the dynamic information received from other unmanned aircraft in the area. We consider a variety of realistic characteristics, including time delay and communication locality. For this flocking flight, we do not possess control for central data processing or control over each UAV, as each UAV runs its collision avoidance algorithm by itself. The main contribution of this work is a mathematical model for stable group flight even in adverse weather conditions (e.g., heavy wind, rain, etc.) by adding Gaussian noise. Two of our proposed variance control algorithms are presented in this work. One is based on a simple biological imitation from statistical physical modeling, which mimics animal group behavior; the other is an algorithm for cooperatively tracking an object, which aligns the velocities of neighboring agents corresponding to each other. We demonstrate the stability of the control algorithm and its applicability in autonomous multi-drone systems using numerical simulations.

  • 비행기록장치는 사고원인 분석이나 사고방지를 위한 용도로 사용되고 있는데 비행 기록장치의 해석에서 가장 중요한 변수는 항공기의 위치 추정방법으로, 일반적인 항법과는 달리 항공항법에서는 정밀한 위치 추정이 쉬운 일은 아니다. 이에 본 논문에서는 정확한 항공기의 위치 추정을 위해 센서들의 특성과 비행기록장치 제한사항을 분석하였고 이를 바탕으로 비행기록장치 기반의 최상의 추정조건을 추출하여 복합항법알고리즘을 구성하고 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 기준 위치에 근사화된 위치를 추정해 낼 수 있음을 증명하였다.

  • In the design of flight control systems there are issues that deserve special consideration and attention such as external perturbations or systems failures. A Simple Adaptive Controller (SAC) that does not require a-priori knowledge of the faults is proposed in this paper with the aim of realizing a fault tolerant flight control system capable of leading the pitch motion of an aircraft. The main condition for obtaining a stable adaptive controller is the passivity of the plant; however, since real systems generally do not satisfy such requirement, a properly defined Parallel Feedforward Compensator (PFC) is used to let the augmented system meet the passivity condition. The design approach used in this paper to synthesize the PFC and to tune the invariant gains of the SAC is the Population Decline Swarm Optimization ($P_DSO$). It is a modification of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique that takes into account a decline demographic model to speed up the optimization procedure. Tuning and flight mechanics results are presented to show both the effectiveness of the proposed $P_DSO$ and the fault tolerant capability of the proposed scheme to control the aircraft pitch motion even in presence of elevator failures.
