The P-3C maritime patrol aircraft operated by the Republic of Korea Navy is equipped with various sensor devices (LRUs, line replace units) for tactical data collection. Depending on the characteristics of the sensor device, it operates with various communication protocols such as IEEE 802.3, MIL-STD-1553A/B, and ARINC-429. In addition, the collected tactical data is processed in the tactical station for mission operators, and this tactical station constitutes a clustering network on Gigabit Ethernet and operates in a distributed processing method. For communication with the sensor device, a specific tactical station mounts a peripheral device (eg. ARINC-429 interface card). The problem is that the performance of the entire distributed processing according to the peripheral device control and communication relay of this specific device is degraded, and even the operation stop of the tactical station has a problem of disconnecting the communication with the related sensor device. In this paper, we propose a method to mount a separate gateway to solve this problem, and the validity of the proposed application is demonstrated through the operation result of this gateway.

고가용도 클러스터 시스템에서 가동되는 인터넷 기반 소프트웨어의 복잡도가 증가됨에 따라 소프트웨어의 설계, 구현, 또는 그 밖의 여러 가지 원인과 관련된 결함으로 인하여 시스템 서비스의 오동작 또는 수행 중단으로 이어지는 사례가 늘어나고 있다. 특히 대량 트랜잭션을 처리하는 인터넷 기반 컴퓨팅 소프트웨어는 빈번한 통신 두절과 데이터 유실로 인하여, 이들이 탑재된 클러스터 시스템의 결함 발생이 더욱 심각할 가능성이 높다. 본 연구는 소프트웨어 재활 결함 허용 기법을 활용하여, 별도의 추가되는 하드웨어 없이도 가용도를 개선할 수 있다는 '소프트웨서 재활 기법을 적용한 다중계 시스템 가용도 분석'에 관한 논문에서 언급된 문제점들에 대한 해결 방안을 제시하였으며, 구체적으로는 1) 주서버의 고장 발생시 여분서버로의 작업전이(switchover) 상태를 클러스터 시스템 모델링에 포함시켰으며, 2) 작업전이 상태와 재활(rejuvenation) 상태에서 머무는 시간을 지수분포 대신에 k-stage Erlangian 분포를 사용하여 확정시간(deterministic time)을 표현할 수 있도록 하였다. 즉 본 논문에서는 고가용도 cold standby 클러스터 시스템의 운영 상태에 대한 상태전이도(state transition diagram)에서, 임의의 상태에서 머무는 시간분포가 memoryless 성질을 만족하지 않아도 되는 semi-Markov 프로세스 문제를 해결하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to eliminate communication shadowing loss of the 'smart safety management system'. The 'smart safety management system' can monitor and relay real time data of workers working in high risk workplace (i.e: industrial scene, disaster scene). The data will provide the rescue team the 'golden hour' in their rescue operations. Method: In this research, safety tag was designed and implemented so that it acts as a repeater for the user. Result: In other words, when communication in-between the safety tag and headquarters' communication terminal is jeopardized, the safety tag will act as a repeater-terminal for other safety tags in the area. Conclusion: The research tested if a specific building with communication shadowing loss problem was resolved when safety tags were implemented. Communication shadowing was first identified in-between the safety tag and headquarters' communication terminal. When extra safety tags were deployed in the same situation, the results showed that the communication shadowing loss was resolved. The repeater safety tags could resolve communication shadowing loss of up to three basement levels in this test building.

A UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) flies along pre-programed navigation points(in-flight, take-off, or landing) automatically without pilot input. Even though UAVs fly differently from general piloted aircraft as the pilot controls the aircraft from a ground station through means of a data-link system. Occasionally, the data-link connection can be lost for any number of reasons, in which case, the FLCC(Flight control Computer) must automatically switch to autopilot to continue flying. Hence, the FLCC is a flight-critical component that must be throughly tested and validated. This paper discusses the development of a HILS(Hardware in the Loop Simulation) test environment designed to simulate real flight conditions to verify the FLCC satisfies flying quality requirements and maintains robustness despite any potential malfunctions or emergency situations.

Water reservoir is defined as a storage space to hold and supply filtered water and it's significantly important to manage water level in the water reservoir so as to stabilize water supply by controlling water supply depending on demand. Liquid level sensors have been installed in the water reservoir and the pumps in the booster station facilitated management for optimum water level in the water reservoir. But the incident responses including sensor malfunction and communication breakdown actually count on manager's inspection, which involves risk of accidents. To stabilize draining facility management, this study has come up with AI model that predicts changes in the water level in the water reservoir. Going through simulation in the case of missing data in the water level to verify stability in relation to the field application of the prediction model for water level changes in the reservoir, the comparison of actual change value and predicted value allows to test utility of the model.

기후변화 가속화와 국민의 높아진 서비스 요구 수준에 따라 농업용수의 관리방식을 현장인력의 경험적 물관리 방식에서 계측정보 기반의 과락적 물관리 방식으로 전환의 필요성이 대두되어, 2001년부터 농업기반시설 내 무인계측, 원격제어 기능이 탑재된 물관리자동화 시스템을 보급하는 농업용수관리자동화사업을 시행하였다. 농업용수관리자동화사업은 사업시행 초기 연구 결과, 농업기반시설 무인계측 및 원격제어 시스템 보급으로 인력에 의한 관행적 물관리 대비 수리시설의 관리 효율성이 크게 향상되어 유지관리 인력의 절감 및 용수수급의 적정성이 개선될 것으로 분석되었다. 하지만 영농환경의 변화에 따라, 당초 분석결과와 달리 자동화사업 추진과 한국농어촌공사의 유지관리 인력 규모 간 뚜렷한 상관성이 보이지 않는다는 정책기관의 지적이 발생하고 있다. 현재 4차산업기술이 산업 전 분야에 걸쳐 일어나고 있으며 농업분야에도 ICT, LOT, 빅데이터 기술이 도입되어 새로운 가치를 창출하고 있다. 농업용수관리 분야에 있어서는 데이터를 활요한 수요자 중심의 지능형 물관리 사업이 추진되고 있으며, 일정규모 이상 저수지 및 양수장 농업용수 공급량 측정 계측기의 설치가 추진중에 있다. 그러나 현재까지 이러한 설치된 계측장치들의 활용방안에 대해서는 뚜렷한 결과가 도축된 바 없으며, 현재 많은 예산과 인력이 투입되어 설치·운영되고 있는 계측장치들의 활용 방안에 대해서 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 2018년 2,228개 농업기반시설물에 자동화시스템을 설치 완료 하였으나, 각종 장비의 비표준화, 효과대비 고비용, 잦은 통신두절 등의 기술적 문제로 인해 현업부서의 수자원관리 업무에서 자동화시스템의 활용성이 저조한 것으로 관측됐다. 본연구에서는 국내 수자원 계측제어 기술 동향 및 운영환경 조사 결과를 기초로, 기술적 측면의 농업용수관리자동화사업의 개선사항과 4차 산업기술의 농업용수관리자동화사업의 적용방안을 제시 하여 농업용수관리자동화사업 중장기 계획 개정등 향후 정챡수립시 참고 자료로의 활용과 농업용수 효율적 활용과 관리를 위한 TM/TC 미래추진 방안을 제시로 정확하고 신뢰도 높은 농업용수 관리 체계를 구축 하고자 한다.

ISO/IEC 29157 originally developed in the Republic of Korea and is based on commercially available PicoCast v1.0. ISO/IEC JTC1 SC6 was registered by the international standard on May 2010. A single platform for a variety of applications and media formats to support development objectives were. ISO/IEC 29157 based wireless networks, ie, Pico-net to master node periodically transmit sync signal is synchronized to the number of slave nodes have the communications structure. Pico-net also supports a variety of network topologies and direct communication between nodes(single-hop communication) and QoS is guaranteed. But Pico-net network structure has the following problems. Loss of communication problems due to mobile nodes, resulting in limitations of node mobility and wireless network operation range of conventional wireless networks operating range less than 1/4 was reduced to the problem. In this paper, a possible solution to the problems mentioned is proposed, using multi-hop communication technology and sync signal transmission technology between nodes.

Recently the demand for drones is rapidly increasing, as developing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and growing interest in them. Compared to traditional satellite and aerial imagery, it can be used for various researches (environment, geographic information, ocean observation, and remote sensing) because it can be managed with low operating costs and effective data acquisition. However, there is a disadvantage in that only a small area is acquired compared to the satellite and an aircraft, which is a traditional remote sensing method, depending on the battery capacity of the UAV, and the distance limit between Ground Control System (GCS) and UAV. If remote control at long range is possible, the possibility of using UAV in the field of remote sensing can be increased. Therefore, there is a need for a communication network system capable of controlling regardless of the distance between the UAV and the GCS. The distance between UAV and GCS can be transmitted and received using simple radio devices (RF 2.4 GHz, 915 MHz, 433 MHz), which is limited to around 2 km. If the UAV can be managed simultaneously by improving the operating environment of the UAV using a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) communication network, it can make greater effects by converging with the existing industries. In this study, we performed the maximum straight-line distance 6.1 km, the test area 2.2 ㎢, and the total flight distance 41.75 km based on GCS through LTE communication. In addition, we analyzed the possibility of disconnected communication through the base station of LTE communication.

We studied on pseudo-range correction(PRC) modeling in order to improve differential GNSS(DGNSS) accuracy. The PRC is the range correction information that provides improved location accuracy using DGNSS technique. The digital correction signal is typically broadcast over ground-based transmitters. Sometimes the degradation of the positioning accuracy caused by the loss of PRC signals, radio interference, etc. To prevent the degradation, in this paper, we have designed a PRC model through polynomial curve fitting and evaluated this model. We compared two quantities, estimations of PRC using model parameters and observations from the reference station. In the case of GPS, the average is 0.1m and RMSE is 1.3m. Most of GPS satellites have a bias error of less than ${\pm}1.0m$ and a RMSE within 3.0m. In the case of GLONASS, the average and the RMSE are 0.2m and 2.6m, respectively. Most of satellites have less than ${\pm}2.0m$ for a bias error and less than 3.0m for RMSE. These results show that the estimated value calculated by the model can be used effectively to maintain the accuracy of the user's location. However;it is needed for further work relating to the big difference between the two values at low elevation.

AIS(Automatic Identification System) is a device that automatically transmits and receives ship information and is mounted on the ship. AIS information of ships near the coast can be received on the ground, but when going out to sea more than 50 nautical miles, communication with the ground is cut off. To solve this problem, ship information can be transmitted to the ground through an AIS satellite equipped with an AIS receiver. There is no case of AIS satellite development in Korea yet, and many domestic shipping companies are using overseas AIS services. PNUSAT-1 is a 1U+ CubeSat, developed by Pusan National University, and it is equipped with an AIS receiver for monitoring of ships and transmitting ship information to the ground. Since the mission data of PNUSAT-1 is in text format, the data size is not large. In consideration of this, communication equipment, low-precision sensors, and actuators were selected. In this paper, system preliminary design of PNUSAT-1 was performed, requirements for mission performance, operation scenario and mode design, hardware and software selection, and preliminary design of each subsystem were performed.
