Teleoperation of a robot arm working in hazardous environments has been studied in the field of defense and security. A master system is an essential part that plays an important role in the teleoperation. We developed a master system, which is an essential part in the teleoperation, so that it can operate the slave robot arm intuitively and has excellent mobility and portability compared to conventional master systems. The master system adopted a Stewart platform to minimize the size and weight, and the legs of the Stewart platform are composed of wires to improve the operation range of the system. The experimental validation of the developed master system is conducted with a commercial IMU, and the experimental results show that the proposed master system can perform reliable and dexterous teleoperation.

The FPGAs are semiconductors that can be redesigned after initial fabrication. It is used in various embedded systems such as signal processing, automotive industry, defense and military systems. However, as the complexity of hardware design increases and the design and manufacturing process globalizes, there is a growing concern about hardware trojan inserted into hardware. Many detection methods have been proposed to mitigate this threat. However, existing methods are mostly targeted at IC chips, therefore it is difficult to apply to FPGAs that have different components from IC chips, and there are few detection studies targeting FPGA chips. In this paper, we propose a method to detect hardware trojan by learning the static features of hardware trojan in LUT-level netlist of FPGA using machine learning.

Most warship combat systems inquire human operator to control several sensor and another equipments as well as decision-modeling. For this reason, many researches with multi-agent based M&S (Modeling and Simulation) have been increasingly conducted. However there cannot find any researches of M&S based analysis for anti-submarine warfare that requires a high level of mission complexity between multiple platforms. In this research, we have been developed various combat platform models such as warship, submarine and helicopter, etc. In order to apply the multi-agent-based M&S technology to the anti-submarine warfare i.e. a HVU (High Value Unit) escort mission scenario. Then we have successfully analyzed the measures of effectiveness according to the different tactics and different situations. In future, the defence engineer maybe employ our methodology and tools to analyze actual tactical problem by simply inserting actual data into our agent model.

Our Automatic Replanning enables simulation entities to execute goal oriented behavior planning by dynamic behavior linking. Existing methods especially in Semi-Automated Forces (SAF) are mainly executing strict plans which are given at initial stage, thus they are not effective to cope with contingencies especially in a human in the loop simulation where humans interrupt. Moreover, those usually suffer from explosion of behavior combination in attempt to describe all possible countermeasures, and such combinations may be prone to being inconsistent to the situations. Our method generates behavior sequence in which behavior are linked from the goal in the manner of back-propagation. Each behavior has tags of pre/post-conditions. The tags are linked dynamically according to a certain contingency. The method is being applied to a national defense research project to show feasibility.

Radars are used to detect the motion of the low flying enemy planes in the military. Radar-detected raw data are first processed and then inserted into the ground tactical C4I system. Next, these data we analyzed and broadcasted to the Shooter system in real time. But the accuracy of information and time spent on the displaying and graphical computation are dependent on the operator's capability. In this paper, we propose the Flying Object Tracking Management System that allows the displaying of the objects' trails in real time by using data received from the radars. We apply the coordinate system translation algorithm, existing communication protocol improvements with communication equipment, and signal and information computation process. Especially, radar signal duplication computation and synchronization algorithm is developed to display the objects' coordinates and thus we can improve the Tactical Air control system's reliability, efficiency, and easy-of-usage.

Recently, developments in the field of communication and network technologies induced new paradigm in the defense weapon system. As a consequence, military authorities develop the Tactical Information Communication Network(TICN) system to adapt to the changing paradigm. One of the most important functions of TICN is real-time communication. As a result, TICN system needs to receive real-time information from the battlefield, and the key technology to support these features is MANET(Mobile Ad-Hoc Network) routing protocol. In this paper, we analyze problems of the shortest path scheme in tactical Ad-Hoc networks, which is widely used in common Ad-Hoc networks. We propose efficient routing protocol for tactical MANET by considering the environment of small combat units, such as node position, speed and data size. The proposed algorithm shows reliable data transfer and low latency in battlefield.

Purpose: Recently, many quality issues are aroused in military forces, such as failures in K-series weapons, combat boots defects and 40mm ammunition explosion accident. To address these problems, this paper suggests to use so called, Defense Quality Score, which is based on Taguchi loss function and developed in this research. Methods: Current defense specification states only the minimum requirement to produce the military supplies. Therefore, it is not easy to indue the continuous quality improvement of the supplies. This research suggests to use the defense quality score which measures the current status of defense supplies'quality characteristics. Results: We applied the defense quality score concept into the hot pepper sauce and long time stockpiled ammunition. We first categorize the quality characteristics into three categories, then assign the certain amount of score based on the importance of the characteristics. Lastly, we applied the modified Taguchi loss function to calculate the achieved score of the characteristics. The perfect score is 100 and the closer to the score, the better product it indicates. Conclusions: In this research, we developed the modified Taguchi loss function to apply into the korean defense supplies. The loss function is utilized to calculate the achieved level of satisfaction of the supplies based on the defense specifications. The application of defense quality score may help to stimulate the continuous quality improvement and encourage the good will quality competition among the military providers.

3차원 영상 기술은 방송, 영화, 게임, 의료, 국방 등 다양한 기존 산업들과 융합하며 새로운 패러다임을 형성하고 있으며, 고품질 및 고해상도의 3차원 영상 획득에 대한 필요성이 강조되고 있다. 이에 따라, 최근에는 3차원 입체 영상을 제작 하는 방법 중 하나인 2D-plus-Depth 구조에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 2D-plus-Depth 구조는 Charge-Coupled Device(CCD) 센서 등을 이용한 일반 카메라와 깊이 카메라를 결합한 형태로써 이 구조로부터 얻은 깊이 영상의 해상도를 상향 변환하기 위해서 Joint Bilateral Upsampling(JBU)[1], 컬러 영상의 정보를 활용한 보간법[2] 등의 방법들이 사용된다. 하지만 이 방법들은 깊이 영상을 높은 배율로 상향 변환할 경우 텍스처가 복사되거나 흐림 및 블록화 현상이 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 2D-plus-Depth 구조에서 얻은 고해상도 컬러 영상에서 보간 정보를 구하고 이 정보를 저해상도의 깊이 영상에 적용하여 상향 변환된 가이드 깊이 영상을 제작한다. 이 가이드 깊이 영상을 Bilateral Filtering[8]을 이용함으로써 고품질의 고해상도 깊이 영상을 획득한다. 실험 결과 제안하는 방법으로 해상도를 상향 변환을 할 경우에 기존의 보간법들에 비해 깊이 영상의 특성을 잘 보존함을 확인할 수 있고, 가이드 깊이 영상에 필터링을 처리한 결과가 JBU의 결과보다 향상됨을 확인할 수 있다.

This thesis is the study of the analysis about Direction of Promote and Acquisition Program of Human Strength. Now we have question 'How we should develop the human resources program to gain human strength in the strategic environment of the future?' We know that if we don't estimate our project precisely, then we can't get good human resources. The purpose of this study is to find the way that how to gain excellent human resources now and in the future. The Ministry of National Defense to study US military Acquisition system. Korean military strategy in the situation of the confrontation between South and North Korea and in the situation of the international relationship and the way of constructing the military strength for the future. To improve Acquisition Program of Human Strength, we must develope and assess the future strategic environment of the Korean Peninsula especially Acquisition Program of Human Strength.
