Abstract

This study analyzed the development status and applications of collision avoidance systems for mine safety management. The definitions of collision avoidance system used in Australia and USA were compared. Sensing technologies utilized in the collision avoidance systems were reviewed. In addition, several collision avoidance systems developed in oversea mining company, such as $MineAlert^{TM}$ Collision Awareness System, Cat $MineStar^{TM}$, and Intelligent Proximity Detection, were reviewed. In the domestic mining industry, no collision avoidance system was used. However, similar systems were utilized in the construction and railroad industry. Collision avoidance system can prevent unexpected collision accident and thus improve worker's safety in mine. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and apply sensors and system appropriate for the domestic mining environment via review of overseas collision avoidance system.

본 연구에서는 광산안전관리를 위한 충돌방지시스템의 개발 현황과 적용사례를 분석하였다. 광업 선진국인 미국과 호주에서 사용하는 충돌방지시스템의 용어를 정의하고 이용되는 센서 기술들을 비교하였다. 또한 해외의 광산 회사들이 개발한 충돌방지시스템인 $MineAlert^{TM}$ Collision Awareness System, Cat $MineStar^{TM}$, Intelligent Proximity Detection 기술 등에 대해 소개하였다. 국내 광업 분야에서는 충돌방지시스템을 개발한 사례가 없었으며 건설과 철도 분야에서 이와 유사한 개념의 시스템을 확인할 수 있었다. 충돌방지시스템을 도입하면 광산에서 발생할 수 있는 충돌사고를 방지하여 작업자의 안전을 개선시킬 수 있을 것이며, 해외의 개발 사례를 통해 국내 광산 환경에 적합한 센서 기술을 개발하고 적용하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
