초록

4차 산업혁명 시대의 미래 전장은 초연결, 고속기동화된 무기체계로 다영역작전을 수행할 것이다. 이러한 미래전 양상의 변화에 대비하기 위해 우리군은 다양한 유·무인 무기체계를 개발하고 이들의 기동간 통신 지원이 가능한 다계층 전술네트워크 구성을 위하여 노력하고 있다. 그러나 현재의 전술네트워크는 단일 계층에서 단일빔 안테나를 활용한 1:1 고속링크 또는 무지향성 안테나를 활용한 1:N 저속링크를 운용하고 있어 기동간 통신 지원이 제한된다. 즉 미래전 대비를 위한 다계층 전술네트워크를 효율적으로 구성하기 위해서 다중빔 안테나의 운용이 필요하다. 특히 공중계층의 공중중계 무인기는 비행체 특징에 따라 다중빔 안테나의 운용 방법이 달라진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 다계층 전술네트워크의 효율적인 운용을 위하여 공중계층에 필요한 다중빔 안테나 운용 시나리오와 고려 요소, 회전익과 고정익 비행체의 특징을 살펴보고 이를 토대로 다중빔 안테나의 공중중계 무인기 설치 위치 및 운용 방안을 회전익과 고정익 비행체로 구분하여 제시한다.

In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the future battlefield will carry out multi-area operations with hyper-connected, high-speed and mobile systems. In order to prepare for changes in the future, the Korean military intends to develop various weapons systems and form a multi-layer tactical network to support On The Move communication. However, current tactical networks are limited in support of On The Move communications. In other words, the operation of multi-beam antennas is necessary to efficiently construct a multi-layer tactical network in future warfare. Therefore, in this paper, we look at the need for multi-beam antennas through the operational scenario of a multi-layer tactical network. In addition, based on development consideration factors, features of rotary-wing and fixed-wing aircraft, we present the location and operation of airborne relay drone installations of multi-beam antennas.
