In recent years, the development of defense technology has become digital with the introduction of advanced assets such as drones equipped with artificial intelligence. These assets are integrated with modern information technologies such as industrial IoT, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing to promote innovation in the defense domain. However, the convergence of the technology is increasing the possibility of transfer of cyber threats, which is emerging as a problem of increasing the vulnerability of defense assets. While the current cybersecurity methodologies focus on the vulnerability of a single asset, interworking of various military assets is necessary to perform the mission. Therefore, this paper recognizes these problems and presents a mission-based asset management and evaluation methodology. It aims to strengthen cyber security in the defense sector by identifying assets that are important for mission execution and analyzing vulnerabilities in terms of cyber security. In this paper, we propose a method of classifying mission dependencies through linkage analysis between functions and assets to perform a mission, and identifying and classifying assets that affect the mission. In addition, a case study of identifying key assets was conducted through an attack scenario.

최근 무인항공기는 국내뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 활용에 대한 관심이 높아지며 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 드론은 독립적으로 외부로부터 정보를 수집하는 임무를 수행하거나, 군집을 이루어 데이터를 주고받으며 특정한 임무를 수행하게 된다. 지금까지의 드론에 관한 연구는 신속하고 정확한 임무의 수행에만 초점을 두어왔고, 드론 자체 또는 드론 군집에서 주고받는 데이터의 보안과 안전에 관한 연구는 비교적 소홀히 다루어져 왔다. 따라서 본 연구는 드론 운용에 있어서 구성요소별 보안 취약점을 분석하고 취약점을 해결할 수 있는 대응방안을 설명한다. 특히 드론의 가장 중요한 임무 중 하나인 지상의 목표물 탐색에 있어서 발생할 수 있는 보안위협 요소와 이에 대한 해결방안을 제시한다.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is generally flied via a pre-planned flight path or real-time commands by an operator. To succeed in an assigned mission, analysis such as the line-of-sight analysis for communication between UAV and a ground data terminal should be performed. In this paper, various analysis algorithms which are performed by a ground control station in pre-flight and in-flight phases, are proposed for the safe flight of UAV. Note that the proposed algorithms can be applied to most UAV systems.

The optimized flight path planning which is appropriate for UAV operation with high performance and multiplex sensors is required for efficient ISR missions. Furthermore, a mission visualization tool is necessary for the assessment of MoE(Measures of Effectiveness) prior to mission operation and the urgent tactical decision in peace time and wartime. A mission visualization and analysis tool was developed by combining STK and MATLAB, whose tool was used for UAV ISR mission analyses in this study. In this mission analysis tool, obstacle avoidance and FoM(Figure of Merit) analysis algorithms were applied to enable the optimized mission planning.

Although the SEAD(suppression to enemy air defenses) mission is a strategically important task in modern warfare, the high risk of direct exposure to enemy air defense assets forces to use of unmanned aerial vehicles. this paper proposes a path planning algorithm for SEAD mission for an unmanned aerial vehicle and a method for calculating the mission effectiveness on the planned path. Based on the RRT-based path planning algorithm, a low-altitude ingress/egress flight path that can consider the enemy's short-range air defense threat was generated. The Dubins path-based Intercept path planning technique was used to generate a path that is the shortest path while avoiding the enemy's short-range anti-aircraft threat as much as possible. The ingress/intercept/egress paths were connected in order. In addition, mission effectiveness consisting of fuel consumption, the survival probability, the time required to perform the mission, and the target destruction probability was calculated based on the generated path. The proposed techniques were verified through a scenario.

천리안위성은 2010년 6월 27일에 발사되어 성공적으로 In Orbit Test (IOT)를 수행하고 있다. 천리안 위성을 지상에서 컨트롤 하기 위하여 ETRI 에서는 위성관제시스템을 개발하였으며, 현재 KARI에서 위성관제시스템을 운영중이다. 위성관제시스템의 일부인 임무계획 시스템은 기상/해양 이미지 촬영에 관한 임무요청, 위성체 기동 요청, 각동 이벤트 등을 종합하여 충돌 없는 임무스케줄을 만들어내게 되는데 이에 복잡한 스케줄링 기법이 요구된다. 천리안 위성의 임무 스케줄링 기법은 CPU 연산을 기본으로 하고 있으나, 이 논문에서는 Graphics Processing Units(GPU) 를 통한 임무 스케줄링 기법의 적용에 따르는 고려사항을 설명한다. 그리고 CPU 기반의 임무 스케줄링 기법과 GPU 기반의 임무 스케줄링 기법의 장단점을 분석한다.

The Electrical Power System (EPS) shall supply required power to maintain spacecraft and payload during the mission. The EPS sizing are based on space environment, satellite mission and lifetime, and allocated budgets. The type of the primary and secondary power is determined according to satellite design-level and allocated subsystem budgets. The design of EPS has closely related to system and others' subsystems design. To supply the sufficient power to the satellite, the implementation of the larger power source and energy storage is impossible actually. And there will be some problems of the attitude control of the satellite, the handling power capability of the electronic boxes, and launch vehicle selection caused by EPS oversizing. Also, the thermal control is not easy in the space by extra power. And the maintenance of the satellite within the specific orbit from orbit-drag is a big design burden of the thruster. So the various technologies have been developed to optimize the EPS sizing and to operate the power system efficiently.

현재 우리나라의 대표적인 저궤도실용위성 시리즈인 '다목적실용위성'은 K2, K3, K5, K3A(2호, 3호, 5호, 3A호) 이렇게 총 네 가지로 구성되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 한국항공우주연구원에서 운영하는 다목적실용위성 K3인 일상 임무계획(Mission Planning)의 모듈 자동화 시스템 개발에 대한 내용을 다뤘다. 그중에서도, 일상적으로 반복 수행되는 K3 임무계획 업무 중에서 수동 작업을 자동화하기 위해 객체지향 CBD 개발 방법론을 토대로 C#을 이용한 자동화 시스템을 구조화 시키는 방안에 대해 주력하였다. 그 결과로 자동화 개념 정립을 위한 Feasibility Study를 수행할 것이다. 이를 다목적실용위성 K3 임무계획 중 일상적인 임무계획에 한하여 제한적으로 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대하며, 이는 나아가 본 선행연구 결과물을 이용하여 K3 임무계획 자동화시스템에 적용에 적극 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Mission autonomy system should be embedded on UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) for mosaic warfare where UAVs autonomously assign tasks to themselves. UxAS (unmanned x-systems autonomy service) proposed by Air force research laboratory is mission autonomy system for unmanned platforms. UxAS has extensible structure composed of numerous module services. We have developed mission autonomy system based on UxAS that performs mission allocation and path planning. In this paper, We present a method of analyzing and evaluating the mission autonomy software according to the performance evaluation index.
