In this paper, the structure and the characteristics of the Fly-By-Wire system applied to the civil aircraft was described. The development trend of the redundant method of the flight control system, data communication system, control surface actuation system and the control laws implemented by the Fly-By-Wire system of the civil aircraft are discussed. The Fly-By-Wire system was first applied to the fighter and its inherent advantages lead to the advent of the Fly-By-Wire civil aircraft. Recently even the small jet aircraft shows the trend of adopting the Fly-By-Wire system. In the future, most of the aircraft are expected to be the Fly-By-Wire type.

본 논문에서는 OpenCV의 Marker Detection 기술을 이용하여 특정지점의 마커를 영상처리기술로 인식하여 드론의 자동 이착륙 및 주변 위기상황, 미션수행 등을 마커를 통해서 드론에게 전달하여 비행 제어할 수 있는 체계를 개발한다. 드론은 OpenCV Aruco모듈을 이용하여 Marker ID별로 특정 명령어를 데이터 베이스와 비교하여 비행제어 명령을 수행한다. 지상에서는 마커의 변경을 통해서 실시간으로 미션변경을 할 수 있다. 이를 통해 드론은 제어용 송수신 채널을 통해서 통신을 하고는 있으나, 주파수 채널수가 제한이 되어 있으므로 구체적인 비행 제어 명령을 마커를 통해 이착륙시 추가적이며, 자동적인 진행이 가능하다.

20세기에 탄생한 동력비행기는 인간의 이동능력을 비약적으로 향상시켰다. 인류의 미개척지였던 항공분야의 발전은 지속적인 기술개발을 통해 더 빨리, 더 멀리, 더 높이 향하기 위해서 계속 나아가고 있다. 이러한와중에 최근에 괄목할 만한 성장을 이룬 컴퓨터와 소프트웨어 산업의 발전은 비행임무에 따라 위험성이 높거나, 사람이 하기 힘든 반복적이고 지루한 비행을 대신하기위한 로봇 비행체 즉, 무인항공기의 개발을 가능하게 하였다. 무인항공기의 탄생 초기에는 조종사의 희생을 줄이기 위해 군사 분야에서 주로 사용되었으나, 산림감시나 해안정찰, 기상관측, 재난관측, 조난자 수색 등 민수분야의 임무로 점차 활동영역이 넓혀지고 있다. 현재 무인항공기에 탑재된 인공지능의 수준은 안정된 비행이 가능하도록 하는 자동조종(autopilot)과 주어진 비행경로를 추종하기위한 항법유도(Navigation & Guidance)정도이며, 비행 중 발생하는 비상상황에 대처하기 위한 의사판단은 지상의 조종자에 의해 결정된다. 앞으로는 계획되지 않은 상황을 맞이했을 때 무인기 스스로 판단하여 경로를 변경하고, 동시에 여러 무인기들과 협력하여 임무를 수행함으로써 임무효율을 높이는 방향으로 인공지능의 수준이 향상될 것이다. 본 논문에서는 최근의 무인항공기 개발추세와 이들 무인기에 고려되고 있는 제어기에 대해 살펴보고, 향후 무인항공기에 적용될 자율비행 알고리듬과 제어기 시스템의 개발동향에 대해 고찰하였다.

침수의 경우에, 수중 비행체(UFV : Underwater Flight Vehicle)는 발라스트 탱크들의 내부를 고압 공기로 비워 내어 부상을 수행한다. 그런데, 기존의 blow-off 방법은 가벼운 침수일지라도 부상 후에는 몸체를 수면에 드러나게 한다. 이는 불필요한 임무 실패 또는 몸체 노출의 결과를 가져온다. 따라서, 부상 제어에 의해 침수 및 부상에 의한 오버슈트 심도를 감소시킴과 동시에 몸체를 수면 근처에 유지시키는 것이 필요하다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 전문가 지식 및 FBFE(Fuzzy Basis Function Expansion)를 사용하는 부상 제어 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능 검증을 위한 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 알고리즘이 UFV 부상 제어 시스템에 존재하는 문제점들을 효과적으로 해결하고 있음을 보여준다.

An adaptive control algorithm for spacecraft rendezvous and docking in a Keplerian orbit is presented. The equations of relative motion of two spacecrafts expressed in a local-vertical-local-horizontal rectangular frame are converted to a general Hamiltonian form, then an adaptive control method developed for the uncertain Hamiltonian system is applied to the rendezvous and docking problem. A smooth projection algorithm is applied to keep the parameter estimates inside a singularity-free region, and a numerical example shows that the developed controller successfully deals with the unknown mass of the chaser spacecraft.

In this paper, an embedded program of a flight control system for a small high performance UAV is introduced. The program consists of modules for device management and guidance and control. The device management system handles navigation sensors and mission equipments. The program for the guidance and control system is used to accomplish various kinds of missions and realize automation of flight control. Driver programs embedded in the device management system for operation of sensors and external devices are based on Texas Instrument's DSP/BIOS RTOS(realtime operating system). The on-board programs for the guidance and control system is obtained by using the model-based auto code generation technology.

A certain level of stability margin airworthiness criteria should be met to secure robustness against uncertainties between the real plant and the model in a flight control system design. The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) specification of MIL-F-9490D and airworthiness certification standard of MIL-HDBK-516B uses gain and phase margin criteria of flight control system. However, the same stability margin criteria is applied at all development phases without considering the design maturity of each development phase of the aircraft. Ultimately, a problem arises when the aircraft operation envelope is excessively restricted. This paper proposes the relation of handling qualities and stability margin, and presents re-established stability margin criteria as a development phases and verification methods. The results of the research study are considered to contribute to the verification of the stability margin criteria more flexibly and effectively by applying the method to not only the currently manned developing aircrafts but also the unmanned vehicle to be developed in the future.

This paper deals with a behavior based decentralized control strategy for UAV swarming utilizing the artificial potential functions and the sliding mode control technique. Individual interactions for swarming behavior are modeled using the artificial potential functions. The motion of individual UAV is directed toward the negative gradient of the combined potential. For tracking the reference trajectory of UAV swarming, a swarming center is considered as the object of control. The sliding-mode control technique is adopted to make the proposed swarm control strategy robust with respect to the system uncertainties and the varying mission environment. Numerical simulation is performed to verify the performance of the proposed controller.

LEO satellites have many heaters for thermal control, such as bus module heaters, payload heaters and battery internal heaters. Some of these heaters are controlled by thermisters, and others can be controlled by flight software. These heaters are divided into various types of group according to the location, telemetry variables, flight software logic, power distribution, etc. Thus, it is difficult to find out which heaters are included in a certain group and modify heater control logic for a new/other software developers. This document describes about the general/special control logic for satellite heaters and groups/arrays for heaters.
