  • The design procedure of Solar Power UAVs is complicated because the configuration and required power for flight must be considered simultaneously as the supplied power is influenced by the wing area. In order to minimize trial and error for the Solar Power UAVs design, a systematic sizing method is proposed which can be used to determine whether a Solar Power UAV is feasible for a given mission, and to derive preliminary dimensional specification of it. The sizing procedure begins with initially assumed wing area because the power, lift, and drag of the wing are directly proportional to it. The assumed wing area and mission requirements are then used to determine step by step the airfoil specifications including lift coefficient and drag coefficient, weight, required power, and wing area. This procedure is iterated for each newly assumed wing area until the error between the assumed wing area and calculated wing area becomes significantly small enough. This sizing methodology was applied to previously developed Solar Power UAVs for validation purposes, resulting in good agreement. The methodology was also applied to determine the dimensions and specifications of the Solar Power High-Altitude Long-Endurance UAV.

  • Along with the 4th Industrial Revolution, the impact of "unmanned" is affecting all fields around the world, and in particular, in the military sector, "unmanned" is so important that it occupies a part of the main combat system. Recently, the South Korean military is facing a crisis due to the North Korea's UAV incident that invaded our airspace and descended to Seoul. In response, the South Korea military declared its willingness and countermeasures to capture and destroy North Korea's UAV. However, as the technological development of UAV continues and the utilization plan is expanding, the countermeasures for UAV at the current level can be useless. Also, the threat from North Korea is not just UAV. North Korea has practically a nuclear power and is set to conduct its seventh nuclear test, and its missile technology is also being advanced, with 38 arounds of 67 missile tests conducted in 2022 alone. It is also developing five key strategic weapons that can pose a fatal threat to Korea, and North Korea's strong conventional forces are located around the NLL(Northern Limit Line), and the port of Long Range Artillery is facing the Seoul metropolitan area. It is important to respond to North Korea's UAV threats, which are now receiving much attention, but it will be necessary to comprehensively analyze and clearly prioritize North Korea's threats and use a limited budget to respond to them.

  • This paper proposes a method to detect and monitor the land creeping area using a UAV to analyze the damaged area efficiently. Using a UAV, it was possible to secure the safety of the investigators before the field survey and effectively utilize it to establish an investigation plan because an orthophoto can be used to detect and scale the cracks in a land creeping area. In addition, it was possible to analyze the scale of the crack quantitatively by extracting the topographic information from the orthophoto. The study sites were found to have a total crack area of 1.01 ha, a length of 1.07 km, an average width of 10 m, and a step distance of 1 to 10 m. Periodic UAV measurements can be used to detect displacements on the land creeping area and monitor the direction and scale of crack spread. Therefore, it is expected to be used effectively during recovery planning. Applying the UAV to the land creeping area resulted in the qualitative and quantitative results quickly and easily in dangerous mountainous watersheds. Therefore, it is expected that it will contribute to the development of related industries because of the high availability of a UAV in forest soil sediment disasters, such as landslides, debris flow, and land creeping area.

  • There will come someday when UAUs can fly into the airspace of manned aircraft in the near future because of the increasing number of operational UAUs together with technologies development. Since pilots of UAVs are on the gound, the equipment for sensing and avoiding obstacles in front is indispensable. In this paper, we analyze functions and interfaces of TCAS II, a collision avoidance device for manned aircraft, then find out whether it is suitable for the collision avoidance device for UAV and problems associated with it, if any. It turns out to be that the onboard directional antenna of TCAS II does not provide a precise directional information, and that the TCAS II is not assumed to be installed alone, but used as supplementary with other device which provides the better precision.

  • According to lessons learned from an accident of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, it is advisable to make a comprehensive radiation survey by the accident phase for efficient response and risk management using diverse survey platforms. This study focuses on the technical status of environmental radiation monitoring using a UAV (Unmanned aerial vehicle) and the performance test of developed aerial survey system based on two detectors with an high energy resolution through the field application to contaminated areas. Finally, the performance of aerial survey at diverse flight heights was successfully achieved by introducing the correction factor to represent the results into ambient dose rate at 1m above the ground.

  • Recently, UAV(unmanned aerial vehicle) has evolved into various figure and become miniaturized. On using existing design method, it is hard to make modelling and standardizing design of flight control system of the figure including cylinder like pipe. These problems are caused by uncorrect express of nonlinearity in controller design. Therefore, it is developed through step of correct modelling and simulation on real time sing high efficiency computer in aircraft development of various figure. This is reducing period and expense of aircraft development. For the shake of solving these problems, in-design method has been devised by H.M. Wang. In this paper, an object of control is cylindrical UAV instead of the general figure of aircraft. It was analyzed flight condition, specification about level flight of the UAV and was presented algorithm to find control value.

  • The development of effective design allowable values for unmanned composite aircraft is an issue of paramount concern for the industry. The application of conventional manned aircraft structural certification methods to unmanned aircraft such as prototype and technology demonstrators, can lead to excessively long development time and costs. In this paper, the determining method of composite structure design allowable values for light composite unmanned aircraft is presented to reduce to the structural weight. This paper seeks to show the applicability of composite B-basis material values as a design allowable of light composite unmanned aircraft structures. A review of different civil and UAV targets failure probability is given. From the results, the researchers can know that the requirements of light composite unmanned aircraft design allowable should be alleviated, compared to manned composite aircrafts.

  • This paper presents the control and guidance algorithm of a KAU-SPUAV(Korea Aerospace University - Solar Powered Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) which is designed and developed in Korea Aerospace University. Aerodynamic coefficients are calculated using the vortex-lattice method and applied to the aircraft's six degrees of freedom equation. In addition, the thrust and torque coefficients of the propeller are calculated using the blade element theory. An altitude controller using thrust was used for longitudinal control of KAU-SPUAV to glide efficiently when it comes across the upwind. Also describes wind estimation technic for considering wind effect during flight. Finally, introduce some guidance laws for endurance, mission and coping with strong headwinds and autonomous landing.
