Remote-controlled and autonomous driving based on artificial intelligence are key elements required for unmanned combat vehicles. The required capability of such an unmanned combat vehicle should be expressed in reasonable required operational capability(ROC). To this end, in this paper, the requirements of an unmanned combat vehicle operated under a manned-unmanned teaming were analyzed. The functional requirements are remote operation and control, communication, sensor-based situational awareness, field environment recognition, autonomous return, vehicle tracking, collision prevention, fault diagnosis, and simultaneous localization and mapping. Remote-controlled and autonomous driving of unmanned combat vehicles could be achieved through the combination of these functional requirements. It is expected that the requirement analysis results presented in this study will be utilized to satisfy the military operational concept and provide reasonable technical indicators in the system development stage.

This paper proposes a local path planning method for stable autonomous driving in rough terrain. There are various path planning techniques such as candidate paths, star algorithm, and Rapidly-exploring Random Tree algorithms. However, such existing path planning has limitations to reflecting the stability of unmanned ground vehicles. This paper suggest a path planning algorithm that considering the stability of unmanned ground vehicles. The algorithm is based on the genetic algorithm and assumes to have probability based obstacle map and elevation map. The simulation result show that the proposed algorithm can be used for real-time local path planning in rough terrain.

본 논문은 국방로봇의 하나인 무인지상차량이 자율주행 시 요구되는 기능수준을 도출하기 위한 방법에 대한 연구이다. 기존의 무기체계는 운용환경에 크게 영향을 받지 않는 반면 국방로봇은 동일한 플랫폼이라 할지라도 운용환경 변화에 따라 다른 성능이 표출된다. 만약 운용제대에 따라 무기체계인 국방로봇의 성능이 각각 다르게 발현된다면 임무수행의 결과는 달라질 것이다. 그러므로 소요군은 국방로봇에 요구하는 기능의 수준을 명확히 도출해야 최적의 국방로봇을 연구개발 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 국방로봇의 주요 기능 중 하나인 자율주행을 중심으로 하여 무인지상차량의 요구기능수준을 도출하는 방법을 제시하였다. 소요군 내 각 운용제대별로 무인지상차량이 자율주행 시 요구되는 기능의 수준을 평가 할 수 있는 문항과 운용자의 개입정도에 따른 자율주행 기능의 요구수준을 나타내었으며, 더불어 여러 운용환경에 따른 변수 중에서 지상 환경에 대한 수준을 제시하였다.

This paper develops scenarios to evaluate the safety performance of Unmanned Ground Vehicle on military circumstances. The scenarios were created using Pegasus Project 6-layer format. These scenarios consist of straight road, curved road, merging road and crossroad. We adapt these scenarios to unpaved road. The characteristics of unpaved roads were divided into roughness, friction coefficient and road frequency. This adaption is validated via computer simulation. We observe the scan lines of vehicle become tangled of the straight road that make the cognitive abilities of the vehicle low and the lane-keeping is unable when vehicles entering curved off-roads over 40 km/h. The developed scenarios will contribute to enhancing stability from the perspective of introducing autonomous driving technology to Korean military.

In this paper, the development of an autonomous electric vehicle for logistics with a robotic arm is introduced. The manual driving electric vehicle was converted into an electric vehicle platform capable of autonomous driving. For autonomous driving, an encoder is installed on the driving wheels, and an electronic power steering system is applied for automatic steering. The electric vehicle is equipped with a lidar sensor, a depth camera, and an ultrasonic sensor to recognize the surrounding environment, create a map, and recognize the vehicle location. The odometry was calculated using the bicycle motion model, and the map was created using the SLAM algorithm. To estimate the location of the platform based on the generated map, AMCL algorithm using Lidar was applied. A user interface was developed to create and modify a waypoint in order to move a predetermined place according to the logistics process. An A-star-based global path was generated to move to the destination, and a DWA-based local path was generated to trace the global path. The autonomous electric vehicle developed in this paper was tested and its utility was verified in a warehouse.

In this paper, we propose a novel concept foran unmanned delivery service using a cooperative heterogeneous unmanned system consisting of a self-driving car and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The proposed concept is suitable to deliver parcels in high-density and high-rise urban or residential areas. In order to achieve the proposed concept, we will develop acooperative heterogeneous unmanned system. Customers can order goods using a smartphone application and the order information, including the position of the customer and the order time, and the package is transported automatically by the unmanned systems. The system assigns the tasks suitable for each unmanned vehicle by analyzing it based on map information. Performance is validated by experiments consisting of autonomous driving and flight tests in a real environment. For more evaluation, the landing position error analysis is performed using circular error probability (CEP).

Path tracking of unmanned vehicle is a basis of autonomous driving and navigation. For the path tracking, it is very important to find the exact position of a vehicle. GPS is used to get the position of vehicle and a direction sensor and a velocity sensor is used to compensate the position error of GPS. To detect path lines in a road image, the bird's eye view transform is employed, which makes it easy to design a lateral control algorithm simply than from the perspective view of image. Because the driving speed of vehicle should be decreased at a curved lane and crossroads, so we suggest the speed control algorithm used GPS and image data. The control algorithm is simulated and experimented from the basis of expert driver's knowledge data. In the experiments, the results show that bird's eye view transform are good for the steering control and a speed control algorithm also shows a stability in real driving.
