This paper proposes an image processing algorithm to stabilize shaken scenes of UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) caused by vehicle self-vibration and aerodynamic disturbance. The proposed method stabilizes images by compensating estimated shake motion which is evaluated from global motion. The global motion between two continuous images modeled by 6 parameter warping model is estimated by non-linear square method based on Gauss-Newton algorithm with excluding outlier region. The shake motion is evaluated by subtracting the global motion from aerial vehicle motion obtained by averaging global motion. Experimental results show that the proposed method stabilize shaken scenes effectively.

Multi disciplinary approach for aerodynamics, structure, propulsion, and flight control system is necessary to develop High Altitude Long Endurance Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (HALE UAV). Various HALE UAV development trends are surveyed to understand their operational requirements. Separating the UAV Take Off Weight by 150kg, Airworthiness implementation direction for HALE UAV is studied under the current Airworthiness regulations. NATO STANAG 4671 and STANAG 4703 Airworthiness certification criteria are analyzed, and their applicability was proposed for future HALE UAV development. In addition, minimization of the risk for UAV is studied by considering probability of cumulative catastrophic failure for HALE UAV. This Hazard Risk Index can support the future UAV Airworthiness Certification Criteria.

Because of the rapid increase of mobile traffic, flexible broadband supportive unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based 6G mobile networks using free space optical (FSO) links have been recently proposed. Considering the advancements made in UAVs, big data processing, and artificial intelligence precision control technologies, the formation of an additional wireless network based on UAV aerial platforms to assist the existing fixed base stations of the mobile radio access network is considered a highly viable option in the near future. In this paper, a combined time bound optimization scheme is proposed that can adaptively satisfy the control and communication time constraints as well as the processing time constraints in FSO-based 6G UAV aerial networks. The proposed scheme controls the relation between the number of data flows, input data rate, number of worker nodes considering the time bounds, and the errors that occur during communication and data processing. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme is very effective in satisfying the time constraints for UAV control and radio access network services, even when errors in communication and data processing may occur.

본 논문에서는 무인항공기의 운용 범위 내에서 데이터링크 두절을 최소화할 수 있는 탑재 가시선 데이터링크 방향성 안테나의 최적 위치를 EM(Electromagnetic) 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석하였다. 무인항공기의 급격한 거동 시 동체 Blockage로 인한 전자파 왜곡 및 손실로 데이터링크 두절이 발생할 수 있다. 이와 같은 데이터링크 두절을 방지하기 위하여 무인항공기의 거동범위를 제한하면 선회 반경이 커지게 되고, 이로 인하여 임무 수행에 많은 제약이 발생할 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 1축 방향성 안테나의 동체 상/하부 장착을 고려한 최적위치에 대하여 EM시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 장착된 방향성 안테나는 수직빔폭이 넓은 1축 안테나를 적용하여 수직 빔폭 만큼 무인항공기가 데이터링크 두절 없이 거동할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 또한, 2축이 아닌 1축 안테나 탑재로 인하여 탑재 중량도 크게 줄일 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) has several advantages over conventional remote sensing techniques. They can acquire high-resolution images quickly and repeatedly. And with a comparatively lower flight altitude, they can obtain good quality images even in cloudy weather. In this paper, we discussed the state-of-the-art of the domestic and international use of UAV in agricultural sector as well as assessed its utilization and applicability for agricultural environment in Korea. Association of robotic, computer vision and geomatic technologies have established a new paradigm of low-altitude aerial remote sensing that has now been receiving attention from researchers all over the world. In a field study, it has been found that use of UAV imagery in an agricultural subsidy program can reduce the farmers' complain and provide objective evidence. UAV high resolution photography can also be helpful in monitoring the disposal zone for animal carcasses. Due to its expeditiousness and accuracy, UAV imagery can be a very useful tool to evaluate the damage in case of an agricultural disaster for both parties insurance companies and the farmers. Also high spatial and temporal resolution in UAV system can increase the prediction accuracy which in turn help to maintain the agricultural supply and demand chain.

An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV) is a powered pilotless aircraft, which is controlled remotely or autonomously. UAVs are currently employed in many military missions(surveillance, reconnaissance, communication relay, targeting, strike etc.) and a number of civilian applications(communication service, broadcast service, traffic control support, monitoring, measurement etc.). For accomplishing the UAV's missions, guarantee of survivability should be preceded. The main objective of this study is the path planning to maximize survivability for UAV based on 3-dimensional environment. A mathematical programming model is suggested by using MRPP(Most Reliable Path Problem) and solved by transforming MRPP into SPP(Shortest Path Problem). This study also suggests a $A^*PS$ algorithm based on 3-dimensional environment to UAV's path planning. According to comparison result of the suggested algorithm and SPP algorithms (Dijkstra, $A^*$ algorithm), the suggested algorithm gives better solution than SPP algorithms.

This paper describes UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) control system which employs PC104 modules. It is controlled by application program based on Linux OS. This application consists of both Linux device driver in kernel-space and user application in user-space. In order to get data required in the unmanned flight, external devices are connected to PC104 modules. We explain how Linux device drivers deal with data transmitted by external devices and we account for how the user application controls UAV on the basis of data processed in the device driver as well. Furthermore we look into the role of GCS (Ground Control Station) which is to monitor the state of UAV.

본 논문에서는 UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)을 이용하여 목표물을 찾은 후 기지국까지 통신 네트워크를 제공하기 위해 UAV 집단을 제어하는 방안을 제안한다. 기존의 통신 시설을 이용하지 않고 UAV들 간에만 무선 랜 통신이 가능하다고 가정한다. 제안 방안은 UAV들이 탐색지역 내에 위치한 목표물을 찾기 위해 기지국으로부터 선형 형태로 출발하고 목표물을 찾은 후에, 목표물에 대한 정보를 기지국까지 전달하기 위하여 UAV 그룹을 이동시킨다. 이 때, 목표물을 발견한 최소 하나의 UAV는 그 위치에 머무른다. 본 논문은 기지국으로의 이동하는 과정에서 안정적인 연결성을 유지하기 위한 방법을 설명한다. NS-2를 사용한 모의실험을 통하여 제안되는 기법을 검증하고 성능을 평가한다. 제안 기법은 기존의 통신 시설을 이용할 수 없는 재난 상황이나 전시 상황과 같이 UAV가 사람을 대신하여 목표물을 감지하며 기지국으로 신속히 전달하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.
