All of the military aircrafts in Korea Air Force are administered and operated together in the same system regardless of whether they are equipped with the data communication capability or not. The absence of the data communication capability in some of the aircrafts might increase whole kill chain hour at the point of the Network Centric Warfare achievement. Network synergy effects cannot also be desired if the section which is not connected to the network influences to the whole tactical network. Equipping aircrafts with the data communication capability could be done by upgrading the aircrafts, but resulting in high costs and long updating time. This paper is a research about the design and implementation of the UMPC based Data Link System to aircrafts that do not have the data communication capability. The proposed system grafts the UHF-based wireless modem technology and the aircraft flight mission support software onto the off-the-shelf UMPC and GPS system. The employed UHF radio equipment allows communicating tactic data with another aircrafts on the air, the ground control point, and even the Tactical Air Control Party(TACP) control vehicle that achieve missions with aircrafts. It thereby increases such capabilities as navigation aid, situation awareness, quick target identification and attack. We also applied Closed Air Support(CAS) scenarios, which is very close to the real environment, to the experiments of the proposed system. The experimental results show that the proposed system could support the data communication capability effectively and the flight mission at low costs of money and time.

The Military Tactical Communication technology for effective network-centric warfare is developing. Targeting broadband wireless transmission, core technology for connection, and Transmission technology that secure survivability under High-speed Movement environment. On the one hand, Tactical data communication system that reflects military characteristic is developing on the base of Legacy communication equipment which is used in the field. Because almost every military units in the field have used voice to communicate which lower efficiency of operation, they have made effort to Substitute voice communication which delays military Operation Tempo to digital communication. The Communications environment of troops in Forward edge of battle field area is very poor. Especially in terms of limited frequency allocation and bandwidth. Therefore, improving the efficiency of frequency is essential for Military Tactical Communication. This paper is about The Data Compression Method for increase of Efficiency in Tactical Data Communication over Legacy Radios which are UHF, VHF, HF Radio. I proposed and proved the most efficient Data Compression Method that reflects military characteristic, after analyzing the experimentation, which simulate CAS(Close Air Support mission) data transmission between Pilot and TACP.

CAS(Close Air Support) is aircraft attack against hostile targets that are in close proximity to friendly forces. Immediate CAS is the mission that attack unplanned targets, and especially the distribution of suitable aircraft assets makes huge effect on the result of immediate CAS mission. But It is hard to find a previous studies on immediate CAS sortie distribution with aircraft suitability. This study suggests a methodology with aircraft suitability for immediate CAS sortie distribution. The methodology consists of 3 steps. Firstly, we analyze target information for situational awareness. Secondly, we calculate each aircraft's suitability value per each target based on the result of previous analysis. Lastly, we suggest immediate CAS sortie distribution based on the aircraft adoptability value to a decision maker. This methodology will provide not only quantitative analysis, but also decision making of immediate CAS sortie distribution more timely and effectively.

A transient analysis on fuel temperatures in an aircraft was studied using the finite difference method. Numerical calculation was performed by an explicit method of modified Dufort-Frankel scheme. Among various missions, close air support mission was considered with 20% hot day ambient condition in subsonic region. The aircraft was assumed to be in turbulent flow. The fuel system model with additional fuel supplies and return concept was considered. As a result of this analysis, the fuel tank temperatures have increased with the increase of the additional fuel supplies. In contrast to tank temperatures, the fuel temperature at the engine inlet has decreased with the increase of additional fuel supplies except in some in-flight phases having high engine fuel flow. From this analysis, the fuel system with the additional fuel supplies and return concept has been shown to be an effective method to decrease the engine inlet fuel temperature. Also, it has been shown that fuel flow rate through fuel/oil heat exchanger is a key factor influencing fuel temperature.

While social networks have become very popular and powerful way of connecting people and sharing new information, they also effectively spread wrong or biased information to the public. We examine the so-called "Shandong peninsular rumor" that claims Chinese government is responsible for the increased air pollution in South Korea and Japan, by moving pollution-causing industries near Beijing to the Shandong peninsular which is close to South Korea. We demonstrate that the amounts of $NO_x$ and $SO_2$ emissions inferred by space-borne monitoring and regional air quality models show clear declining trends in past several years. We do not have any evidences to support the relation of Shandong peninsular emissions change to South Korean air quality.

Firing test of the fuel grain for solid fuel ramjet with additives and ignition support material was conducted. Fuel grain consist of HTPB mixed with AP particle 15 wt.%, Boron particle 5 wt.%. To cause the short ignition delay, ignition support consist of $NC/BKNO_3$ and composite propellant was coated to the fuel grain. An oxidant gas having a controlled temperature, pressure and oxygen composition close to the air condition in the ramjet combustor was supplied using the Ethanol blended $H_2O_2$ gas generator. Gas was set to flow at a mass flow rate of 150 g/s and mass flux of $200kg/m^2s$ in the grain port. Through the test, ignition support operated well and ignition delay of 0.5. During the test, stable chamber pressure with 8 bar and high combustion efficiency of 0.86 was confirmed.

In this paper, an air conditioner peak power control system using electric power line communication has been developed. The air conditioner power control system using RS-485 communication method is hard to install on the existing buildings due to difficulty in cabling, and the system using wireless communication methods has a weak point of not being able to be used in close space, while the developed system has its own advantages of overcoming the above mentioned obstacles. In addition, the system is extended to support not only single-phase electricity system but also three-phase four-wire electricity system, and therefore can be installed anywhere in the domestic environment. The system also has enhanced the ease of deployment, operational stability and economical efficiency by compact circuit design. Considering the current state requiring the energy sayings, the system would greatly contribute to the widespread use of the air conditioner power control system. The superiority in the performance and stability of the system has been proved by the design verification of each component such as remote air conditioner controller, electric power line gateway and so on, and the field test of the whole system.

As CAS, X-ATK, and INT models considered as the most typical Air-to-Ground operation models in ROKAF are mainly designed as the voice-centered system between aircraft and ground control facilities, it is critical to newly develop the Link-16 based model for the ROK-US combined operation between F-15K, AWACS, M-SAM, and KDX-III equipped with Link-16. Former studies had been limited to the CAS operation, and they had mainly focused on reducing the voice transmission time to exchange the information between each mission step with maintaining existing operation steps. Therefore, this paper makes up the weak point in former studies, thereby designing new Air-to-Ground operation model for CAS, X-ATK, INT mission using Enterprise Architecture OV6c, which enables both aircraft and ground control facilities or between aircraft to obtain the real-time information on the location, identification, armament and the real-time image data through the broadcasting function. Based on the analysis of new operation model, we come to a conclusion that by simultaneously exchanging the information on mission between nodes concerned through the broadcasting function of Link-16. It is possible to cut down superfluous steps among the mission steps, and to reduce the mission time. It is clear that it gives rise to improve the battle efficiency and the decision-making tempo as well as the battlefield situational awareness.

Air permeabilities in unsaturated fractured tuff at the Apache Leap Research Site (ALRS) near Superior, Arizona, exhibit a self-affine behavior, thus renders a field random fractal. Based up fractal scaling, the observed scale effect has been interpreted [Hyun et al., 2002]. Recently, Frantziskonis and Hansen [2000] presented that fractal scaling can be represented based on wavelets. This study deals with the way of using wavelets for fractal scaling. A numerical study is presented to examine the applicability of wavelet-based approach to determining upscaled air permeability values on various data supports at the site. To characterize the scaling property of self-affine fields generated based upon wavelets, Hurst coefficient, H. was inferred by applying the average wavelet coefficient (AWC) method. The result yielded H = 0.24, which is very close to the result of geostatistical analysis using a power variogram (H = 0.22). The study concludes that wavelet-based scaling is a useful way of determining parameter values on different data supports, which is an essential task for modeling of subsurface flow and mass transport in a numeric grid with different resolutions (grid size).

사이버 공격은 조직과 국가에 큰 피해를 주려는 목적으로 정보를 가로채고 파괴하는 의도적인 행동으로 빚어지는 경우가 많다. 이에 따라 국제 표준화 기구(ISO)는 ISO/IEC 27000 시리즈 등 정보 자산의 보호를 위한 표준 문서를 지침으로 제공한다. 하지만 지침만 제공할 뿐 자산 보호를 위한 구체적인 방법이나 절차가 포함되어 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 공군의 긴급 CAS(Close Air Support) 작전을 대상으로 추후 사이버 전투 피해평가를 위해 사이버 공격에 의한 정보 자산에 대한 점수를 가산화 한다. 긴급 CAS 작전 시뮬레이션 진행 후 도출된 요소를 가지고 객관적인 수치라고 할 수 있는 CIA(Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability)지표들과 군 정보를 접목시켜 자산의 중요성을 계산하고 나아가 가중치를 주어 차별성을 가지게 된다.
