본 논문은 미국 무인체계 정책의 발전과정에 대한 분석을 통하여 시행착오를 최소화하여 효율적으로 한국의 무인체계를 발전시킬 수 있는 방안을 제시하였다. 미국은 2001년 9·11테러 이후 군사혁신 차원에서 무인체계 개발에 집중하여 선도국가가 되었다. 미국은 무인체계를 발전시키면서 개발 및 획득 과정에서 수많은 시행착오를 겪었다. 이에 따라 2012년에 무인체계 개발지침을 마련하고 국방 무인화위원회를 발족시켜 무인체계 획득방안을 구체화했다. 또 다양한 무인화 사업이 진행되면서 사업의 중복성 등 예산 낭비 요소를 제거하고자 핵심기술 개발 공유 및 무인체계 기능 단순화를 추진하였다. 한국도 미래형 게임체인저인 무인체계를 개발하는 초기단계부터 정책적으로 산·학·연·군 간의 협업체계를 구축하고, 진화적 개발 전략을 적용해야 한다. 또 운용분야에서는 유·무인체계 복합작전 개념을 정립하고, 이를 구현하기 위한 지능형 S/W와 개방형 구조, 사이버 보안기술을 발전시켜야 한다.

The use of unmanned combat systems is of interest for future battlefield. Advanced techniques are being actively studied to build fully autonomous unmanned systems. However, there are technical, ethical and legal limitations for the fully autonomous unmanned combat systems. In addition, a remote controlled system is necessary so far in order to prepare for situations where fully autonomous unmanned systems fail to function properly. Thus, a procedure of developing operational requirements in system level is proposed and interface requirements of unmanned combat vehicles for remote control are described in this study.

Due to the population of the Republic of Korea is getting less, the shortage of available troops has become a big issue. In response to this, the need for Unmanned weapon systems is rising. To operate an Unmanned weapon system near borderlines or low altitude, it is necessary to protect not only the system itself but also operational information communicated between the Unmanned system and control station, so that they should be safe using Cybersecurity measures. Besides, it is critical to protect a few core technologies applied to Unmanned weapon systems throughout the Anti-Tamper measures. As the precedent studies only focus partially, Cybersecurity or Anti-Tamper, it is acknowledged that comprehensive studies are needed to be conducted. This study is to incorporate both concepts into Korea's defense acquisition process. Specifically, we will outline the concepts and needs of Cybersecurity and Anti-Tamper, and briefly present ways to apply them simultaneously.

Nowadays unmanned ground systems are used in supporting of surveillance and explosive ordnance disposal. Also, we expect that will be used to remarkably enhance combat capability through network-based cooperative operations with other combat systems. In order to effectively develop those unmanned systems, we needs a systematic method to analyze combat effectiveness and validate required operation capabilities. In this paper, we propose a practical approach to simulate remote-operated unmanned ground systems by using OneSAF, an US-Army simulation framework. First of all, we design a simulation model of unmanned system by integrating with core components for wireless communications and remote control of mobility and fire. Next, we extend OneSAF functionality to create communication links that connects a remote controller with an unmanned vehicle and define a simulated behavior to operate unmanned vehicles via the communication links. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed model within OneSAF and summarize system effectiveness analysis results.

In this research, we will devise an obstacle avoidance algorithm for a previously unmanned vehicle. Whole systems consist mainly of the vehicle system and the control system. The two systems are separated; this system can communicate with the vehicle system and the control system through wireless RF (Radio Frequency) modules. These modules use wireless communication. And the vehicle system is operated on PIC Micro Controller. Obstacle avoidance method for unmanned vehicle is based on the Virtual Force Field (VFF) method. An obstacle exerts repulsive forces and the lane center point applies an attractive force to the unmanned vehicle. A resultant force vector, comprising of the sum of a target directed attractive force and repulsive forces from an obstacle, is calculated for a given unmanned vehicle position. With resultant force acting on the unmanned vehicle, the vehicle's new driving direction is calculated, the vehicle makes steering adjustments, and this algorithm is repeated.

This paper describes the process of evaluating maneuverability in still water of an unmanned surface vehicle based on data measured by performing sea trials. First, we set up a test scenario that is easy to analyze the maneuverability of the unmanned surface vehicle and to identify and verify the dynamics model. Since the attitude of hull varies according to the speed of the unmanned surface vehicle which has a planing hull shape, the relationship between waterjet RPM, speed and attitude is analyzed by performing straight forward tests at various speeds. The turning tests of the unmanned surface vehicle in which the waterjet angle rotates while turning are performed by changing the waterjet rotation angle under the condition of two representative speeds to analyze turning ability. The turning ability of the unmanned surface vehicle includes speed reduction, yaw rate, heel, and turing diameter at steady turning phase according to the speed and RPM.

Autonomy of unmanned systems is important because the unmanned system with high level of autonomy is able to perform desired tasks in unstructured environments without continuous human guidance. Evaluation of their autonomy is vital to realize the autonomous operation ability of unmanned system. Compared to the methods of evaluating the level of autonomy(LOA) for an unmanned ground vehicle(UGV) and unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV), the method of expressing the LOA of unmanned maritime system(UMS) is not established yet. Since UMS has a unique characteristics in terms of operational area, mission complexity and required technologies, compared to the UGV and UAV, it is required to establish for expressing the LOA for UMS. This paper reviews the current approaches to assess the LOA of unmanned system and proposes potential metrics for UMS in order to determine the autonomy levels of UMS.
