Utilization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are rapidly expanding to various fields ranging from defense, industry, entertainment and personal hobbies. Due to the increased activities of unmanned airplanes, many security problems have emerged, including flight path errors to undesired destinations, secondary threats due to exposed securities caused by the capture of unmanned airplanes in hostile countries. In this paper, we find security vulnerabilities in UAVs such as GPS spoofing, hacking captured video information, malfunction due to signal attenuation through jamming, and exposure of personal information due to image shooting. In order to solve this problem, the stability of the unstructured data is secured by setting the encryption of the video shooting information section using the virtual private network (VPN) to prevent the GPS spoofing attack. In addition, data integrity was ensured by applying personal information encryption and masking techniques to minimize the secondary damage caused by exposure of the UAV and to secure safety. It is expected that it will contribute to the safe use and stimulation of industry in the application field of UAV currently growing.

In the agricultural environment, pesticide control requires a high risk of work and a high labor force for farmers. The effectiveness of pesticide control using unmanned aerial vehicles varies according to climate, land type, and characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicles. Therefore, an effective method for pesticide control by unmanned aerial vehicles considering the spraying conditions and environmental conditions is required. In this paper, we propose an efficient pesticide control system based on agricultural unmanned aerial vehicles considering the application conditions and environmental information for each crop. The effectiveness of the proposed model was demonstrated by measuring the drop uniformity of pesticides according to the change in altitude and speed after attaching the sensory paper and measuring the penetration rate of the drug inside the canopy according to the change in crop growth conditions. Experiment result, the closer the height of the UAV is to the ground, the more evenly the crops are sprayed, but for safety reasons, 2m more is suitable, and on average a speed of 2m/s is most suitable for control. The proposed control system is expected to help develop intelligent services based on the use of various unmanned aerial vehicles in agricultural environments.

The performance analysis code has been developed for vertical take-off and landing(VTOL) UAV which can be utilized as a trade analysis tool in the pre-conceptual design phase. The UAV requires VTOL capability and high speed cruise performance. The main logic of this performance analysis code is to estimate performance parameters of each mission segment by mission fuel weight iteration. The reliability of this performance analysis code is discussed by comparing the data of existing dual flight mode VTOL UAVs such as Boeing CRW and Bell Tilt Rotor.

For flight loads analysis of Smart UAV, applicable regulations and loads conditions should be prepared in advance, and modeling for aerodynamics, weight, and structure should be performed. Panel method is usually adopted for aircraft loads analysis to obtain aerodynamic loads. In this study, ARGON which is a multidisciplinary fixed wing aircraft design software co-developed by KARI and TsAGI was used for loads analysis. ARGON can be utilized for flutter and stress analysis as well as for flight and ground loads analysis. In this paper, flight loads analysis of Smart UAV which is a FAR 23 category airplane was performed with ARGON and the results were presented.

In conjunction with the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the unmanned aerial vehicle industry is being developed to a new paradigm by combining advanced technologies such as AI, Big Data and the IoT. Aeronautical developed countries such as the U.S. are focusing their efforts on the development of the safer unmanned aerial vehicles. The Korea Aerospace Research Institute, as part of the national R&D project in 2011, had succeeded in developing the first vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) UAS, called Smart-UAV. However, although the development technology of the VTOL UAS is possessed, developing and operating of the VTOL UAS for commercial or military use are limited. The type certification procedure of the VTOL UAS developed by domestic technology is stipulated in the Korean Aviation Safety Act, but the Korean VTOL UAS airworthiness standards (KAS) hsve not been established. Thus, this study investigated the development trends of the VTOL UAS in Korea and abroad and national certification systems and procedures, and benchmarked the special conditions for the VTOL aircraft, announced by the EASA on July 2, 2019, to establish standards for type certificate of the VTOL UAS in Korea.

The Smart UAV must have the control characteristics of propulsion system necessary for both rotary aircraft and fixed wing aircraft though it equips turbo-shaft engine. To develop an electronic engine controller in the future, it is necessary to accumulate the experience of engine operation and data of tilt rotor aircraft. For this purpose, the computer programs which predict engine performance in the steady state and transient state can be utilized for the supplementation of flight test data. In this work, we developed a dynamic analysis program using engine performance data gathered during the flight tests. In addition the accuracy of the program was verified through comparison with flight test data and the results of steady-state performance analysis program.

We propose the design of the warfighting experiment process for software intensive systems using the intelligent maturity model and suggest the application results of the target searching capability in smart UAV. For this, we design the intelligent maturity model to evaluate the intelligent degree of the software intensive systems considering the domain and intelligent level. Then we classify the IS0/1EC-12207 process and CMMI process as LITO domain for designing the warfighting experiment process, map the classifed process to the five factors of the warfighting experiment and derive the process as warfighting experiment element and phase. Based on the derived process, we design the warfighting experiment process using the IDEF0. Finally we apply the proposed process to the target search capability and suggest the results which are required to develop and acquire the smart UAV.
