Radar Cross Section(RCS) is a measure of how detectable an object is with a radar. A larger RCS indicates that an object is more easily detected. Informally, the RCS of an object is the cross-sectional area of a perfectly reflecting sphere that would produce the same amount of reflection strength as the object in question would. In order to estimate RCS of aircraft weapons the external surface is modeled as a collection of simple shape elements. And the overall RCS is estimated as a vector sum of configuring elements' cross-sections which are well known given by analytic formulae. A RCS estimation code is developed for a typical shape of Air-To-Surface bombs and missiles. Size of weapons and location of fins are implemented in the code in addition to the presence of canards. The ability to predict radar return from flying vehicles becomes a critical technology issue in the development of stealth configurations. This simplified method of RCS estimation is known to be fast and accurate enough in an optical region of high frequency incident radio wave.

A FTS (Flight Termination System) is a system that resides in a flying object such as a rocket, unmanned airplane, helicopter, missile, etc., receives commands from ground stations or detects coordinates automatically, and accomplishes a destruction command in case the object does not follow the presumed orbit. In this paper, we address the implementation of a communication modem for the FTS modem. We present general theory, simulation results using Matlab, and several results on the implementation using VHDL.

드론은 최근 기상관측, 영상촬영, 인명구조 등의 다양한 분야로 활용 가능성이 입증되고 있다. 이에 따라 다양한 산업 분야에서 드론 적용을 위한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있으며, 또한 민간용 시장으로 빠르게 확산되고 있다. 이러한 확산은 일반인들도 드론에 대한 이해와 활용 관점을 가지게 되었고, 실험용 드론 시스템 제작/개발로 이어지고 고 있다. 그러나 드론은 비행체의 물리적 특성상 정밀한 제어가 용이하지 않기 때문에 많은 연습이 필요하다. 또한 법적으로 드론을 비행시킬 수 있는 공간이 다양하지 못하다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 드론을 처음 접하거나 조종이 미숙한 사람들을 대상으로 드론의 비행 조종 연습을 할 수 있는 웹 기반의 교육용 소프트웨어를 개발하고 그 실용 가능성을 평가한다.

In this paper, we propose a system and an intuitive interface that can create an athletic scene among athletes. We allow you to enter motion as if you were playing a game, so that the user's action becomes the player's action. The user can take various actions in front of the motion sensor and control the object flying to him. When a user specifies an opponent to pass or attack, and takes appropriate action in front of the motion sensor, the movement trajectory of the object is automatically generated by the physical optimization technique in accordance with the motion. In this way, you can create scenes where multiple players play together in a virtual environment. The method of this paper will be very useful for rapid prototyping for cinematic trailers of based on athletics games or animations.

The proposed system in the study aims to detect forest fires in real-time stream data received from the drone-camera. Recently, the number of wildfires has been increasing, and also the large scaled wildfires are frequent more and more. In order to prevent forest fire damage, many experiments using the drone camera and vision analysis are actively conducted, however there were many challenges, such as network speed, pre-processing, and model performance, to detect forest fires from real-time streaming data of the flying drone. Therefore, this study applied image data processing works to capture five good image frames for vision analysis from whole streaming data and then developed the object detection model based on YOLO_v2. As the result, the classification model performance of forest fire images reached upto 93% of accuracy, and the field test for the model verification detected the forest fire with about 70% accuracy.

This paper describes test result of the Supersonic Wing Structure and the utility of thermal test equipment, which is possible to heat rapidly and continuously above $1,000^{\circ}C$, the durability and reliability of which are improved compared with the existing equipment. Through the test, we could predict the amount of strength reduction of the wing due to aerodynamic heating, caused by exposure of high temperature. Recently the aerodynamic heating temperature of the supersonic flying object is rapidly increased. It is possible to carry out the High Temperature Strength Test on the hypersonic speed flying object with the newly designed thermal test equipment. Because of that, we can upgrade the High Temperature Strength Structure Test technique and test reliability.

A QRT(Quad-Rotor Type) hovering robot system is developed for quick detection and observation of the circumstances under calamity environment such as indoor fire spots. The UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is equipped with four propellers driven by each electric motor, an embedded controller using a DSP, INS(Inertial Navigation System) using 3-axis rate gyros, a CCD camera with wireless communication transmitter for observation, and an ultrasonic range sensor for height control. The developed hovering robot shows stable flying performances under the adoption of RIC(Robust Internal-loop Compensator) based disturbance compensation and the vision based localization method. The UAV can also avoid obstacles using eight IR and four ultrasonic range sensors. The VTOL(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) flying object flies into indoor fire spots and sends the images captured by the CCD camera to the operator. This kind of small-sized UAV can be widely used in various calamity observation fields without danger of human beings under harmful environment.

This paper proposes a wireless LAN antenna system that tracks an object automatically by using image-based tracking. The proposed system consists of a camera and a pan-tilt unit in addition to a directional wireless LAN antenna. The camera and the directional antenna are set in same direction and they are set on the pan-tilt unit. A target object which has a wireless LAN receiver is tracked by using images captured by the camera. And the directional antenna faces in same direction as the camera by the pan-tilt unit. Therefore, the directional antenna keeps pointing the receiver, and a transmitting efficiency is improved. A result of a fundamental experiment shows that a receiver attached to a flying airship was tracked by a prototype of the proposed antenna system. The airship flied about, and the proposed antenna system was set on a roof of a building. The experimental result indicates an effectiveness of the proposed system compared to the conventional directional LAN antenna.

We introduced a stereo camera on the aircraft to detect flight objects and to estimate the 3D position of them. The Saliency map algorithm based on PCT was proposed to detect a small object between clouds, and then we processed a stereo matching algorithm to find out the disparity between the left and right camera. In order to extract accurate disparity, cost aggregation region was used as a variable region to adapt to detection object. In this paper, we use the detection result as the cost aggregation region. In order to extract more precise disparity, sub-pixel interpolation is used to extract float type-disparity at sub-pixel level. We also proposed a method to estimate the spatial position of an object by using camera parameters. It is expected that it can be applied to image - based object detection and collision avoidance system of autonomous aircraft in the future.

Blasting is a work that destruct an object by use of explosive. Its use covers a wid range, and it is applicable to blast the rocks, minerals, coal, steel and concrete structures, bridges, etc. To execute the blast plan most effectively, the properties of the object and the explosives should be well understood, and all the other conditions must ve incorporated in its design and plan. A safe blasting pattern and procedure should be selected considering the envirinmental effects and dther conditions. At the same time, a protective protective pricedures should be utilized to prevent the safety hazards such as the excessive blast vubration, air pressure, and the flying fragments. This study reviews the controlled blasting techniques in these regards.
