The software running on avionic systems is required to be highly reliable and productive. Due to these demands, the standard such as ARINC 653 has been suggested, which includes the abstraction of resource partitioning and defines interfaces between avionic operating system and applications. Though there are many manned aerial vehicles employing ARINC 653 based operating systems, Linux-based ARINC 653 for unmanned aerial vehicles has not been studied yet. In this paper, we propose the design of Linux-based ARINC 653 process model and present preliminary implementation. The experiment results present that the implementation is enough to support control software of unmanned helicopter.

Al-Qaeda follower who planned to attacks the Pentagon and the Assembly by unmanned aircraft equipped with explosives was caught in the dictionary in September 2011. In addition, high-performance unmanned aerial vehicles in the United States 'sentinel' of the technology being leaked to Iran in late 2011 was an accident. Terrorist attacks on the forces used unmanned aircraft will be the day the not too distant. The purpose of this research is to provide response plans against acts of terrorism utilizing unmanned aircrafts to prevent large losses of lives such as the terrorist attacks of September 11. Discussing in detail, this research suggests revising and newly implementing the definition and categorization of unmanned aircrafts as well as relevant punishment in current aeronautics regulations as an initial response against acts of terrorism utilizing unmanned aircrafts. This is in order to newly implement and revise current relevant regulations that inadequately address the rapidly developing and changing unmanned aircrafts which will lead to increased sense of alarm for the potential terrorists, and also to introduce a systematic tool to punish those who commit such acts by clearly establishing the grounds for punishment. Also, under the binary operating system over airspace currently implemented globally, it is impossible to identify and control the infiltration of airspace by unmanned aircrafts. Recognizing such limitations, this research suggests a combined operation of airspace for unmanned and manned aircrafts as a second way of response for acts of terrorism utilizing unmanned aircrafts. A systematic integrated operation of airspace will appropriately control unmanned/ manned aircrafts that were not previously reported or otherwise have deviated from navigation routes, and will be able to prevent terrorism attempts utilizing aircrafts beforehand.

조종사가 탑승하지 않고도 지정된 임무를 수행할 수 있도록 제작된 무인항공기(드론)가 다양한 장비(광학, 적외선, 레이더 센서 등)를 탑재하여 활용되고 있다. 지금까지는 국가안보 유지 수단으로서 감시 정찰 정밀공격무기의 유도 등의 임무를 수행하여 왔다. 최근에는 민간부문에서도 다양한 용도로 활용되고 있어서 정부(국토교통부 산업통상자원부)는 무인항공기의 국내경제발전의 파급효과를 인지하고, 세계 무인항공기시장에서 우선순위를 선점하기 위해 투자확대를 기해 왔다. 무인항공기시장이 산업발전과 고용촉진에 도움이 되어 국내경제에 긍정적인 효과가 많다고 하더라도 무인항공기의 안전운행을 담보할 다양한 법적 제도적인 장치의 마련이 필요하다. 따라서 무인항공기로 야기되는 다양한 유형의 사고를 검토하여 이에 대한 법적 책임에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 무인항공기의 사고는 운영자의 운영상의 과실로 인한 사고도 있고 무인항공기 자체의 결함으로 인한 사고도 발생할 수 있다. 또한 운행자의 고의과실로 인한 타인의 권리(프라이버시권 등)를 침해하는 경우나 무인항공기끼리의 충돌사고도 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 사고로 인한 책임은 민사책임으로서 대부분 지상 제3자에 대한 생명 신체 또는 재산상의 손해배상책임이다. 이러한 책임을 규율하는 국제협약으로 로마협약이 있지만 체약국이 없기 때문에 국제협약으로서의 역할을 못하고 있다. 따라서 현재로서는 각국의 국내법에 의하여 해결될 가능성이 많을 것으로 생각된다. 무인항공기 운영자의 과실로 인한 사고는 민법이나 상법이 적용될 수 있고, 무인항공기의 제작결함으로 인해 사고가 발생하였을 경우와 시스템의 오작동으로 인해 사고가 발생하였다면 제조물 책임을 물어야 할 경우도 있을 수 있다. 이러한 법적 쟁점에 대한 검토를 통하여 무인항공기 공급과 활용의 확대로 인한 다양한 사고발생과 책임범위를 명확히 하여 사고당사자들의 책임관계를 인식시키는 것이 필요하다.

Owing to the rapid development of infrared guided weapon systems, the threat to aircraft survivability is constantly increasing, and research on infrared stealth technologies are being conducted to ensure aircraft survival. In this study, we analyze the minimum infrared signature of an aircraft according to its flight altitude by considering the characteristics of infrared guided missiles, which detect the contrast signature between the aircraft and background. We conducted computational fluid dynamics simulations for the convective coefficient, and heat transfer simulations were performed considering convection, conduction, and radiation for flight conditions. Thus, we obtained the surface temperature distribution of the aircraft and analyzed the aircraft infrared signature based on the flow characteristics around it. Furthermore, the optimum emissivity for the minimum infrared signature was derived, and the effect of the infrared signature was analyzed when this optimum emissivity was applied to the fuselage surface for each flight condition.

With broadcasting telecommunication, rapid change detection, and construction of spatial information, a long reconnaissance, resources detection in dangerous area and natural disasters, which are difficult for manned aerial vehicles to perform, international recognition in UAV merely being used for limited military purposes has been changed and its demand for both civil and military purpose have been increased. However, considering the current situation that availability of UAV varies and its working areas also broaden, the stability of UAV and the problems of privacy protection are more important in integrated operation of UAV. In particular, the application of UAV system is urgent for the area where rapid decision making due to expedite data construction such as disaster, calamity, and the acquisition of spatial information for small area are required. However, since technical stability for UAV system and institutional regulation in regard of spatial information are not examined, and UAV system has not been integrated with aerial photograph, the limitation of UAV system has been presented. Thus, this study is aimed at analyzing domestic and foreign research trend and institutional research trend in terms of integrated UAV operation, and proposing its implications and the availability of integrated UAV operation for future national spatial information data construction.

Recently, the range of utilization and demand for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has been continuously increasing, and research on the construction of a separate operating system for low-altitude UAV is underway through the development of a management system separate from manned aircraft. Since low-altitude UAVs also fly in the airspace, it is essential to establish technical standards and certification systems necessary for the operation of the aircraft, and research on this is also in progress. If the operating standards and certification requirements of the aircraft are presented, a test method to confirm this should also be presented. In particular, the accuracy of small UAV's navigation required during flight is required to be more precise than that of a manned aircraft or a large UAV. It was necessary to calculate a separate navigation error. In this study, we presented a test method for deriving navigation errors that can be applied to UAVs that have difficulty in acquiring long-term operational data, which is different from existing manned aircraft, and conducted verification tests.

To design a control law of an aircraft, an accurate aircraft dynamic model is required. To obtain an aerodynamic database (DB) to build a dynamic model, a large number of wind tunnel tests are typically required. However, when flight test data of target aircraft exist such as in the process of unmanned conversion of a manned aircraft, an aircraft dynamic model can be obtained through a parameter estimation method and a DB tuning procedure. This paper describes a nonlinear model construction process and a verification method for KC-100 OPV aircraft. Flight data compatibility analysis was performed to determine suitability of the estimation method application. Linear model estimation was performed using the maximum likelihood estimation method. Results of aerodynamic DB tuning process and verification applying the FFS standard to the nonlinear model constructed are presented.

스텔스 기능을 가진 군사용 항공기는 레이다 망의 추적을 피하기 위해 일반 냉각수 대신에 절연유를 냉각매체로 사용한다. 그러나 절연유는 물에 비하여 열전달특성이 매우 낮기 때문에 항공기 전기전자 기기/부품 발열부를 효과적으로 냉각시키지 못하는 한계성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 나노유체(Nanofluid) 개념을 이용하여 절연유에 알루미나 및 질화알루미늄 나노분말을 미랑 분산시킨 나노절연유를 제조하고 이것의 열전달특성을 순수 절연유의 그것과 비교 평가함으로써, 냉각특성이 크게 개선된 새로운 냉매로서의 적용 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 다만 나노절연유를 제조함에 있어서 가장 큰 장애물은 오일에 대한 분산성 확보에 있기 때문에, 비드밀 및 초음파를 이용한 나노분말 응집체의 습식분산 및 분산제를 이용한 친유성 표면개질을 동시에 수행함으로써 장시간 안정된 분산성을 확보하도록 노력하였다. 나노유체의 열전도도 및 대류열전달계수는 비정상열선법을 이용하여 측정하였으며, 유체 속의 분말 분산 상태는 원심력을 이용한 분산안정성 평가장치 및 cryo FE-SEM을 이용하여 확인하였다. 또한 분말 형상이 대류열전달에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 알루미나 나노분말은 구상과 침상의 분말을 모두 사용하였고, 질화알루미늄 외에 다이아몬드 나노절연유도 함께 제조, 평가함으로써 냉각 및 절연특성, 그리고 물리화학적 안정성이 우수하고 실적용 가능성이 가장 높은 재료를 도출하고자 하였다.

A simple and effective guidance and control scheme that enables autonomous three-dimensional path-following for a fixed wing aircraft is presented. The method utilizes the nonlinear path-following guidance law for the outer loop that creates steering acceleration command based on the desired flight path and the current position and velocity of the vehicle. The scheme considers the gravity in the guidance level, where it is subtracted from the acceleration command to form the specific force acceleration command which the aircraft is better suited to follow than the total acceleration command in the inner-loop. A roll attitude control scheme is also presented that enables inverted flight or sideslip maneuvers such as slow roll and knife-edge. A series of aerobatic maneuvers are demonstrated through simulations to show the potential of the proposed scheme.
