The celestial navigation is one of alternatives to GPS system and can be used as a backup of GPS. In the celestial navigation system using more than two star trackers, the vehicle's ground position can be solved based on the star trackers' attitude information if the vehicle's local vertical or horizontal angle is given. In order to determine accurate ground position of flight vehicle, the high accurate local vertical angle measurement is one of the most important factors for navigation performance. In this paper, the Earth geophysical deflection was analyzed in the assumption of using the modern electrolyte tilt sensor as a local vertical sensor for celestial navigation system. According to the tilt sensor principle, the sensor measures the tilt angle from gravity direction which depends on the Earth geoid surface at a given position. In order to determine the local vertical angle from tilt sensor measurement, the relationship between the direction of gravity and the direction of the Earth center should be analyzed. Using a precision orbit determination software which includes the JGM-3 Earth geoid model, the direction of the Earth center and the direction of gravity are extracted and analyzed. Appling vector inner product and cross product to the both extracted vectors, the magnitude and phase of deflection angle between the direction of gravity and the direction of the Earth center are achieved successfully. And the result shows that the angle differences vary as a function of latitude and altitude. The maximum 0.094$^{circ}$angle difference occurs at 45$^{circ}$latitude in case of 1000 Km altitude condition.

비상체가 자세를 유지하기 위한 자세기준에는 비상체의 무게중심을 지나 서로 직교하는 3축을 취하는데 그것을 각각 롤(roll)축, 피치(pitch)축, 요(yaw)축 이라 부른다. 자세측정 장치는 이 3축에 대한 변동을 검출하는 센서이다. 본 논문에서는 HMD에 자세측정 장치를 부착하고. 이동로봇플랫폼에 팬틸트를 장착하여 카메라를 제어한다. 가속도센서는 진동에 매우 취약하기 때문에 센서데이터에 노이즈가 심하게 발생하며, 센서데이터를 매핑(mapping)하는 과정에서 데이터들의 간격이 많이 벌어지는 문제도 발생한다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 평균필터와 Cosine Interpolation을 적용하여 팬틸트 동작을 방해하는 요소를 제거하였다. 제안한 성능을 평가하기 위해 실외환경에서 HMD에 부착한 센서데이터를 원격으로 전송하여 이동로봇에 탑재된 팬틸트 카메라를 제어하였다. 실험결과 약간의 지연은 발생하였으나 비교적 안정하게 팬틸트 카메라가 제어됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 이동로봇은 평지나 경사면 등 어떠한 지형에서도 주행이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper proposes a wireless LAN antenna system that tracks an object automatically by using image-based tracking. The proposed system consists of a camera and a pan-tilt unit in addition to a directional wireless LAN antenna. The camera and the directional antenna are set in same direction and they are set on the pan-tilt unit. A target object which has a wireless LAN receiver is tracked by using images captured by the camera. And the directional antenna faces in same direction as the camera by the pan-tilt unit. Therefore, the directional antenna keeps pointing the receiver, and a transmitting efficiency is improved. A result of a fundamental experiment shows that a receiver attached to a flying airship was tracked by a prototype of the proposed antenna system. The airship flied about, and the proposed antenna system was set on a roof of a building. The experimental result indicates an effectiveness of the proposed system compared to the conventional directional LAN antenna.

The power plant system of a tilt rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was verified by the Ironbird ground test, which considerably reduces cost and risk during the developmental stages. The function and performance of the engine, drive line, nacelle conversion, and rotor systems were evaluated using a building block test approach. The Ironbird test concept facilitates the discovery of potential faults in earlier stages of the testing period. As a result, the developmental testing period could effectively be shortened. The measured test data acquired through a ground control and data acquisition system exhibited satisfactory results which meet the developmental specifications of a tilt rotor UAV.

In optical disk drive(ODD), pickup actuator, which comprises a key part of an optical disk drive equipment. must be thin. compact, and high sensitive. Low tilt is also an important requirement for the actuator, since optical disks are to high density. This tilt occurs from around the axis parallel to the tangential and radial direction of the disk. The main reason of the moment is the coupling effect between focus driving system and tracking driving system. This paper analyzed tut quantity due to focusing and tracking force through coupled fields analysts with electromagnetic analysis and structural analysis.

In solar generation, the PV array's azimuth is headed due south and the tilt is generally $33^{\circ}$ in order to acquire maximum generation. However, when installed in a site where there are buildings or other facilities, the azimuth and tilt are adjusted. Yet, when the azimuth and tilt are deviated from due south and $33^{\circ}$, the generation quantity is decreased substantially and currently a method to estimate the decreasing proportion is unavailable. Therefore, in this thesis, an equation on the "change ratio of solar radiation due to the changes in tilt and azimuth" was deduced by utilizing empirical data on the amount of solar radiation received according to the changes of tilt and azimuth and Interpolation. By using this equation, the decreasing proportion of generating quantity due to the installation methods of PV system can be estimated, therefore, it can be usefully utilized when designing and going through feasibility studies for development of solar generation systems.

This paper deals with an autonomous flight guidance and control algorithm design for TR301 tilt-rotor airplane under development by Korea Aerospace Research Institute for simulation purpose. The objective of this study is to design autonomous flight algorithm in which the tilt-rotor airplane should follow the given waypoints precisely. The approach to this objective in this study is that, first of all, model-based inversion is applied to the highly nonlinear tilt-rotor dynamics, where the tilt-rotor airplane is assumed to fly at helicopter flight mode(nacelle angle=0 deg), and then the control algorithm, based on classical control, is designed to satisfy overall system stabilization and precise waypoint following performance. Especially, model uncertainties due to the tiltrotor model itself and inversion process are adaptively compensated in a simple neural network(Sigma-Phi NN) for performance robustness. The designed algorithm is evaluated in the tilt-rotor nonlinear airplane in helicopter flight mode to analyze the following performance for given waypoints. The simulation results show that the waypoint following responses for this algorithm are satisfactory, and control input responses are within control limits without saturation.
