Abstract

This paper provides the basic data of low-altitude small drone management technology to solve the problem of drone's dysfunction that generally increases with the demand of the drone. Accordingly, various low-altitude small drone identification technology employed in many countries were investigated and analyzed. Herein, the research cases which have been developed to obtain diverse information such as the flight's plan, pilot's identity and contact number, and the flight's information such as the location and speed of small drones were mainly investigated. Furthermore, the list of the features of each case was analyzed. Moreover, the present paper suggests a drone identification system configuration which complements the problems of existing technologies and verifies the proposed system through a flight test.

본 논문에서는 드론 수요와 함께 증가하는 드론의 역기능을 해결하기 위한 저고도 소형드론 관리 기술의 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 이를 위해 여러 나라에서의 저고도 소형드론 식별기술을 조사 및 분석하였다. 소형드론의 위치, 속도 등 비행정보 이외에도 비행 계획, 조종자의 신원 등 다양한 정보를 얻어내기 위해 진행되어온 연구 사례들을 중심으로 조사하였고, 각각의 사례들의 특징을 분석하여 나열하였다. 더 나아가 기존의 드론 식별기술들의 문제점을 보완하는 시스템 구성안을 제안하였으며, 비행시험 환경을 구성하여 제시한 시스템을 비행시험을 통해 검증하였다.
