Abstract

In the unmanned vehicle industry, the market is exploding due to the rapid development of public and private demands along with the technological development of the 4th Industrial Revolution. In addition, unmanned mobiles are being used for communication services. In this paper, we analyzed the communication performance of unmanned aerial vehicle according to the characteristics of Doppler frequency. The Doppler frequency was calculated using the geometric model of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the Doppler frequency of 10km, 30km, 300km, 1000km per hour and the BER performance by AWGN were measured by considering the unmanned high speed unmanned vehicle based on the position of the controller. The Doppler frequency model uses a Dent model and adds additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) to check the bit errors of the transmitter and receiver. Low speed unmanned vehicles generally exhibited a BER performance of 0.2, while high speed unmanned vehicles generally exhibited a BER performance of 0.06. As the frequency band increases at the same speed, the BER performance increases, and when the speed increases in the same frequency band, the BER performance decreases. This is confirmed by the simulation results to predict theoretically predictable BER performance. In the frequency bands of 2.6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 28 GHz, the BER characteristics by Doppler frequency and the BER characteristics by controller function are verified. effect was confirmed.

무인 이동체 관련 산업은 4차 산업혁명 기술발전과 더불어 공공 및 민간 수요의 급증으로 시장이 폭발적으로 성장하고 있다. 뿐만 아니라 통신 서비스에도 무인 이동체가 활용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 도플러 주파수의 특성에 따른 무인 비행체의 통신 성능을 분석하였다. 무인 비행체의 기하학적 모델을 이용하여 도플러 주파수를 계산하고, 제어기의 위치를 원점으로 고속의 무인 비행체를 고려하여 시속 10km, 30km, 300km, 1000km의 도플러 주파수와 AWGN에 의한 BER 성능을 측정하였다. 도플러 주파수 모델은 Dent 모델을 이용하였으며, 가산성 백색 가우시안 잡음(AWGN)을 추가하여 송신단과 수신단의 비트 오차를 확인하였다. 저속의 무인 비행체는 일반적으로 0.2의 BER 성능을 나타내었으며, 고속의 무인 비행체는 일반적으로 0.06의 BER 성능을 나타내었다. 동일한 속도에서 주파수 대역이 증가하면 BER 성능은 증가하였으며, 동일한 주파수 대역에서 속도가 증가하면 BER 성능은 감소됨을 확인하였다. 이는 이론적으로 예상 가능한 BER 성능 예측을 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 확인하였다. 2.6GHz, 5GHz, 28GHz 각각의 주파수 대역에서 도플러 주파수에 의한 BER 특성과 제어기 함수에 의한 BER 특성을 확인하였으며, 무인 비행체의 이동시 발생하는 도플러 주파수는 제어기의 위치와 가까운 곳에서 통신 성능에 많은 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.
