An aircraft collision accident is a disaster that causes great losses of inventories and lives. Though a collision avoidance warning function is provided automatically to pilots in the aircrafts by the enhancement of the aircraft capability, achieving fast decision-making to escape a collision situation is a complex and dangerous work for pilots. If an in-flight collision situation is controlled by the air traffic control system which monitors all airplanes in the air, it would be more efficient to prevent in-flight collisions because it can handle the emergency before the pilot's action. In this paper, we develop the collision avoidance warning function in the air traffic control system. Specifically, we design and implement the five stages of the collision avoidance function, and propose a visualization method which could effectively provide the operators with the trajectories and altitudes of the aircrafts in a collision situation. By developing an in-flight collision warning function in the air traffic control system that visualizes flight patterns through the state transition data of in-flight aircrafts on the flight path lines, it can effectively prevent in-flight collisions with traffic alerts. The developed function allows operators to effectively select and control the aircraft in a collision situation by providing the operators with the expected collision time, the relative distance, and the relative altitude while assessing the level of alert, and visualizing the alert information which includes the Attention-Warning-Alert phase via embodying the TCAS standard. With the developed function the air traffic control system could sense an in-flight collision situation before the pilot's decision-making moment.

This paper is focused on dynamic modeling and control system design as well as vision based collision avoidance for multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Multi-rotor UAVs are defined as rotary-winged UAVs with multiple rotors. These multi-rotor UAVs can be utilized in various military situations such as surveillance and reconnaissance. They can also be used for obtaining visual information from steep terrains or disaster sites. In this paper, a quad-rotor model is introduced as well as its control system, which is designed based on a proportional-integral-derivative controller and vision-based collision avoidance control system. Additionally, in order for a UAV to navigate safely in areas such as buildings and offices with a number of obstacles, there must be a collision avoidance algorithm installed in the UAV's hardware, which should include the detection of obstacles, avoidance maneuvering, etc. In this paper, the optical flow method, one of the vision-based collision avoidance techniques, is introduced, and multi-rotor UAV's collision avoidance simulations are described in various virtual environments in order to demonstrate its avoidance performance.

최근 멀티콥터는 비행 안정성 향상을 위해 다양한 충돌회피 센서를 탑재하고 있다. LiDAR를 이용해 3차원 위치를 인식하거나 다수 카메라와 실시간 SLAM 기술을 이용해 장애물과의 상대 위치를 계산하기도 한다. 또한 소형 프로세스와 카메라로 구성된 3D 깊이 센서를 사용하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 충돌회피 소프트웨어 기술 개발을 위한 플랫폼으로써 상용 부품을 활용해 실내 비행이 가능한 소형 충돌회피 멀티콥터 시스템을 개발하였다. 멀티콥터 시스템은 LiDAR, RealSense, GPU 보드를 탑재하였고, 비행시험을 통해 YOLO 알고리즘 기반의 사물 인식 및 충돌회피 기능을 검증하였다. 이 논문에서는 시스템 설계/제작 및 탑재 장비 선정과정, 비행시험 결과에 관해 기술하였다.

Traffic accidents are normally caused by late or faulty judgements due to the driver's inaccurate estimation of the distance, velocity, and acceleration from the surrounding vehicles as well as his carelessness or inattention. Thus, the development of collision avoidance systems is motivated by their great potential for increased vehicle safety. A typical collision avoidance system consists of the forward-looking sensor, the criteria for activation of collision warming and avoidance, the collision avoidance maneuvers, and the user interface. This thesis is concerned with the development of a collision warning algorithm in which the driver is warned of approaching collision with the visual and/or the audible signals . The warning algorithm based on fuzzy logic is presented here based on new warning criteria. It has been newly derived from the conventional warning equation by adding a new input variable of the required deceleration to avoid collision. The algorithm is also able to adapt to the individual driver's taste along with the different road conditions by externally controlling the warning intensity. Finally , the proposed algorithm has been validated using computer simulation.

This paper proposes a decision support model for USVs to improve the accuracy of collision avoidance decision-making. It is formed by Navigation Safety Domain (NSD) and domain-based Collision Risk Index (CRI), capable of determining the collision stage and risk between multiple ships. The NSD is composed of a warning domain and a forbidden domain, which is constructed under the constraints of COLREGs (International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea). The proposed domain based CRI takes the radius of NSD in various encounter situations as threshold parameters. It is found that the value of collision risk in any directions can be calculated, including actual value and risk threshold. A catamaran USV and 6 given vessels are taken as study objects to validate the proposed model. It is found that the judgment of collision stage is accurate and the azimuth range of risk exists can be detected, hence the ships can take direct and effective collision avoidance measures. According to the relation between the actual value of CRI and risk threshold, the decision support rules are summarized, and the specific terms of COLREGs to be followed in each encounter situation are given.

선박의 충돌회피 방법을 제시하는 관점에 있어, 두 선박의 조우각도에 따라 속력이 충분히 고려되어야 할 것이다. 하지만 선박의 충돌회피를 위해 새롭게 연구된 근접상황 선박충돌회피지원 모델의 안전경계영역(Safe-Guard Ring) 설정은 본선과 상대선박의 속력비가 약 1.7이하로 제한되어 있으므로 제한된 범위 이외의 경우에서 충돌 위험이 존재 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 두 선박이 조우하는 각도 및 속력을 고려한 안전경계영역 설정을 연구함으로써 안전한 충돌회피 조종을 위한 선박충돌회피모델을 제시하고자 한다.

Human factors have been considered the primary reason of marine accidents. Especially, the collision between vessels is mostly mused by human behavior. However, there have not been many researches to clarify the reason of marine accidents mused by human factors quantitatively. In order to understand human factors and to enhance safe navigation systematically, using a full mission ship-handling simulator, we've investigated the characteristics of avoiding behavior taken by mariners. Further in order to apply the characteristics more widely and effectively, it's necessary to formulate the standard behavior for ship-handling in the condition of collision avoidance. Is this study, therefore, we intended to propose the concept to model the mariner's standard behavior on the handling of collision avoidance as the first step. As a result, we confirmed the contents of information processing in ship-handling that mariner's generally taking to avoid collision.

선박 충돌 사고를 예방하기 위해 충돌위험도를 미리 추정하여 알려주는 다양한 연구들이 꾸준히 소개되고 있고, 일부 항해장비에 적용되고 있다. 하지만, 충돌위험을 미리 알려주었을 때, 실제 운항자는 충분히 피항 가능한 상황인데 위험성을 알린다고 판단하여 위험 경고를 무시하거나 장비의 알람 기능을 꺼놓는 경우도 많은 것으로 알려져 있다. 선박 충돌 위험 예측이 운항자들에게 좀 더 유용해지기 위해서는 실제 선박들의 습관화된 충돌 회피 동작을 고려할 필요가 있다. 이 연구는 선박에서의 충돌 회피 조치가 어떻게 이루어지고 있는지 조우 유형별로 분석하고 이력을 관리하기 위한 시스템을 제안한다. 특히, 충돌회피를 위한 초기대응에 대한 적절성을 판단하는 핵심 모듈을 뉴로-퍼지 기반 추론 형태로 상세히 설계하고 테스트함으로써 제안하는 시스템의 타당성을 보인다.

The operation planning of multi-AUV is considered as a very difficult task. This paper proposes the qualitative method about the operation plan of multi-agents. In order to achieve this goal, it applies an extension collision map method as a tool to avoide collision between multi AUVs. This tool has been developed for the purpose of collision forecasting and collision avoidance for the multi - agents system in a land where a control is much easier. This paper analyzes the avoidance value of maximum path of AUV in order to apply this to a water environment where a tidal, a wave and disturbances are common. And it suggests the method that the maximum path avoidance can be applied to the collision avoidance on the extension collision map. Finally, the result proves that multi AUVs effectively navigates to the goal point, avoiding the collision by the suggested method.

최근 국내 해양사고는 선박충돌사고가 전체 해양사고의 약 $20\%\~34\%$를 차지하며 구성비 또한 매년 증가하는 경향을 나타내고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 선박충돌회피를 효과적으로 지원하기 위해, 선박마다 다르게 나타나는 선박의 선박조종성능을 갖추고 근접상황 충돌회피지원을 위해 연구된 CCAS-Model(Close Quarters ship Collision Avoidance Support Model : 근접상황 충돌회피지 원모델)을 기반으로 한 선박충돌회피지원 프로그램 개발을 목적으로 수행되었다. 이 프로그램은 선박의 다양한 조우상황을 비교하고, 자선의 선회특성을 이용하여 상대선박의 침로, 속도 유지에 대한 충돌회피 가능영역과 방법을 나타냄으로써 근접상황에서도 신속한 피항동작의 검토 및 결정을 가능케 하며 효과적인 충돌회피 조선을 지원할 것이다.
