IT 기술의 발전과 각종 관련 규제가 해결되어 드론으로 불리는 무인비행체(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; UAV)에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 하지만, 현재까지 개발된 UAV는 무선조종 혹은 영상인식 기반의 자율비행에 의해 비행경로가 설정되므로, 안전사고에 대한 대책이 없다면 UAV에 대한 수요 증가는 UAV 간 혹은 UAV와 주변 사물 간의 충돌을 야기할 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 차량 통신 시스템을 활용한 UAV 비행경로 설정 방안을 제안한다. 제안된 방식에서는 차량 통신 시스템 인프라를 이용하여 UAV의 충돌을 방지하고 효율적인 비행이 가능하도록 하였으며, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 방식의 효율성을 검증하였다. 그리고 제안된 방식은 차량 통신 규격을 준수하면서 약간의 오버헤드만 추가되어, 상용 차량 통신 시스템에 적용이 용이하도록 설계하였다.

In this study, the correlation analysis between total system error and environmental factor variables was performed to confirm the effect on the performance of the integrated navigation system by various environmental factors. To collect flight data of hybrid vertical take-off and landing UAVs, scenarios including various turning sections and straight sections such as left turn, right turn, turning rate, and path change angle were selected, and environmental data of wind direction, wind speed, temperature, air pressure, and humidity were collected in real time through weather station. As a result of the correlation analysis between the collected flight data and environmental data, it was concluded that the performance of the integrated navigation system by environmental factors within the collected data was not significant affected and was robust.

Researches on air-ground robot cooperating system has been made recently. The cooperation among homogeneous robots focused on the architecture of the system, quality and influence of the communication. In contrast, the cooperation among heterogeneous robots such as aerial vehicle and ground vehicle robots has not been much handled. There are a couple of main points for those air-ground cooperating robots. One is using UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) as an extra sensor of UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle). This kind of application is usually used in situations such as guiding UGV to an appropriate path which could be better determined from the eye in the sky as UAV. The other main application of air-ground cooperating robot system is the localization. By combining sensor information from both UAV and UGV, the robot system as a whole can localize a target object or find features in the environment with better performance than UGV or UAV alone. Although these applications are recently studied in many different ways and devices, there are still a lot of possibilities in the field of air-ground cooperating robot systems. We introduce those research fields in this paper.

Recently, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency(DARPA) in the United States is studying a new concept of war called Mosaic Warfare, and MUM-T(Manned-Unmanned Teaming) through the division of missions between expensive manned and inexpensive unmanned aircraft is at the center. This study began with the aim of deriving the priority of autonomous functions according to the role of unmanned aerial vehicles in the present and present collaboration that is emerging along with the concept of mosaic warfare. The autonomous function of unmanned aerial vehicles between the presence and absence collaboration may vary in priority depending on the tactical operation of unmanned aerial vehicles, such as air-to-air, air-to-ground, and surveillance and reconnaissance. In this paper, ACE (Air Combat Evaluation), Skyborg, and Longshot, which are recently studied by DARPA, derive the priority of autonomous functions according to air-to-air collaboration, and use AHP analysis. The results of this study are meaningful in that it is possible to recognize the priorities of autonomous functions necessary for unmanned aircraft in order to develop unmanned aerial vehicles according to the priority of autonomous functions and to construct a roadmap for technology implementation. Furthermore, it is believed that the mass production and utilization of unmanned air vehicles will increase if one unmanned air vehicle platform with only essential functions necessary for air-to-air, air-to-air, and surveillance is developed and autonomous functions are expanded in the form of modules according to the tactical operation concept.

Quadrotor is an aircraft which is possible in Vertical Take-off and Landing(VTOL). This aircraft can not only be created as an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV), but also can be easily used in various fields because of its simplicity of construction. This study is mainly conducted with two main purposes. The first goal is designing the quadrotor focusing on the lightweight and protecting the airframe. The second purpose is stabilizing the quadrotor's attitude by using the PID controller. MATLAB simulation is performed for obtaining PID gain based on equations of motion. We used the compensation filter technique for the calibration of sensor data. PID gain has been drawn out based on the MATLAB simulation. The efficiency of the attitude control is improved by calibration of sensor data.

In this paper, the Integrated Guidance and Control (IGC) law is proposed for the Rotary Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (RUAV). The objective of the IGC law is to consider the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the RUAV and to design a guidance law which takes into consideration the nonlinear relationship between kinematics and dynamics. In order to control the RUAV system, sliding mode control scheme is adopted. As the RUAV is an under-actuated system, a slack variable approach is used to generate the available control inputs. Through the Lyapunov stability theorem, the stability of the proposed IGC law is proved. In order to verify the performance of the IGC law, numerical simulations are performed for waypoint tracking missions.

This paper is about EO sensor module control based on the image processing. The main purpose of this research is acquiring a latitude and longitude of the target located on the ground by using image processing. For image processing, OpenCV is employed which is a computer vision library originally developed by Intel, and ATmega128 is used for the EO sensor module control. This task also involves realization of control programs and acquisition of sensor view angle for the position of the target.
