Abstract

Normally, aero photography using UAV uses about 430 MHz bandwidth radio frequency (RF) modem and navigates and remotely controls through the connection between UAV and ground control system. When using the exhausting method, it has communication range of 1-2 km with frequent cross line and since wireless communication sends information using radio wave as a carrier, it has 10 mW of signal strength limitation which gave restraints on life my distance communication. The purpose of research is to use communication technologies such as long-term evolution (LTE) of smart camera, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and other communication modules and cameras that can transfer data to design and develop automatic shooting system that acquires images to UAV at the necessary locations. We conclude that the android based UAV filming and communication module system can not only film images with just one smart camera but also connects UAV system and ground control system together and also able to obtain real-time 3D location information and 3D position information using UAV system, GPS, a gyroscope, an accelerometer, and magnetic measuring sensor which will allow us to use real-time position of the UAV and correction work through aerial triangulation.

일반적으로 UAV를 이용한 항공촬영은 약 430 MHz 대역폭의 radio frequency (RF) 모뎀을 이용하여 UAV와 지상관제시스템간의 연결을 통해 UAV의 통제 및 원격 조종을 한다. 기존의 방법을 이용한 경우 1~2 km 정도의 통신 범위를 가지고 있으며 잦은 혼선이 일어나고, 무선통신은 전파를 매개로 정보를 전달하기 때문에 신호세기를 10 mW로 제한을 두고 있어 장거리 통신을 하는데 제약이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 스마트 카메라의 long-term evolution (LTE), 블루투스, WiFi와 같은 무선 데이터 통신 기술을 이용하여 데이터 송수신이 가능한 통신 모듈 시스템과 카메라를 이용하여 영상 획득이 필요한 지역에서 UAV에 영상을 획득하는 자동촬영 시스템을 설계하고 개발하는데 그 목적은 둔다. 본 연구에서 제안한 안드로이드 기반의 UAV 촬영 및 통신모듈시스템은 스마트 카메라 하나로 영상 획득뿐만 아니라 UAV 시스템과 지상관제 시스템을 연결해주며, UAV 시스템의 GPS와 자이로스코프, 가속도계, 자기 계측 센서 등의 센서로 부터 획득된 3차원 위치정보와 3차원 자세정보를 실시간으로 제공받을 수 있어서 항공삼각측량을 통한 UAV의 위치 및 보정 작업에 실시간으로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
