Abstract

This paper uses the Apollonius Circle technique to estimate the position of a target that generates a specific signal by using a drone, which is rapidly becoming a rapidly expanding industry. The existing direction finding method is performed through the vehicle on the ground or installed the antenna at a high position to detect the position of the target. However, the conventional direction finding method is difficult to configure the reception environment of the LOS signal, It is difficult. However, the direction finding using the drone is easy to construct and measure the LOS signal receiving environment using the drone flying at high altitude. In this study, we use the 3D 800MHz Path-Loss Model to reconstruct the signal by using the measurement data of the ground direction finding, reconstruct the signal by using the 3-D 800MHz Path-Loss Model, and use the Apollonius Circle method to estimate the position of the target. A simulation was performed to estimate the position of the target. Simulation was performed to determine the target position estimation performance by configuring the ground direction finding and the dron direction finding.

본 논문은 빠르게 확대되고 있는 산업으로 각광 받고 있는 드론을 활용하여 특정 신호를 발생하는 목표물의 위치를 추정하고자 Apollonius Circle 기법을 활용하였다. 기존의 방향탐지 방법은 지상에서 차량을 통해 실시하거나 높은 위치에 안테나를 설치하여 목표물의 위치를 탐지했지만 기존의 방향탐지 방법은 LOS 신호 수신 환경을 구성하기 어렵고 또한 장비의 무게와 크기 때문에 이동 측정이 어렵다. 그러나 드론을 활용한 방향탐지는 높은 고도에서 비행하는 드론을 이용해 LOS 신호 수신 환경을 구성 및 이동 측정이 쉽다. 본 연구에서는 지상 방향탐지의 측정데이터를 이용하여 드론의 신호 수신환경을 3차원 800MHz Path-Loss Model를 활용하여 신호를 재구성하여 드론 수신 Power로 재구성하였으며 목표물의 위치를 추정하고자Apollonius Circle 기법을 활용하여 목표물의 위치를 추정하는 시뮬레이션을 구성하였다. 시뮬레이션은 지상 방향탐지와 드론 방향탐지를 구성하여 목표물의 위치추정 성능을 분석하였다.
