Recently, there are many studies related aerial mapping project and 3 dimensional shape and model reconstruction using UAV(unmanned aerial vehicle) system and images. In this study, we create 3D reconstruction point data using image matching technology of the UAV overlap images, detect shape change of structure and perform accuracy assessment of area($m^2$) and volume($m^3$) value. First, we build the test structure model data and capturing its images of shape change Before and After. Second, for post-processing the Before dataset is convert the form of raster format image to ensure the compare with all 3D point clouds of the After dataset. The result shows high accuracy in the shape change of more than 30 centimeters, but less is still it becomes difficult to apply because of image matching technology has its own limits. But proposed methodology seems very useful to detect illegal any structures and the quantitative analysis of the structure's a certain amount of damage and management.

It is difficult to perform automatic formation flight of UAV (Unmanned Aerial vehicle) when GPS (Global Positionig System) is out of order or has a system error, since the relative position estimation in the flight group is impossible in that case. In this paper, we design a relative localization system for the automatic formation flight of UAV. For this purpose, we adopt digital beam forming (DBF) to estimate the angle with the central controller of the flight group and Particle Filtering scheme to compensate the estimation error of ToA (time of arrival) method. Computer simulation results present a proper distance between the central controller and a following unit to maintain the automatic formation flight.

An UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is a flight system that is designed to conduct missions without a pilot. Compared to traditional airborne-based photogrammetry, UAV-based photogrammetry is inexpensive and can obtain high-spatial resolution data quickly. In this study, we aimed to classify the land cover using high-spatial resolution images obtained using a UAV. An RGB camera was used to obtain high-spatial resolution orthoimage. For accurate classification, multispectral image about same areas were obtained using a multispectral sensor. A DSM (Digital Surface Model) and a modified NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) were generated using images obtained using the RGB camera and multispectral sensor. Pixel-based classification was performed for twelve classes by using the RF (Random Forest) method. The classification accuracy was evaluated based on the error matrix, and it was confirmed that the proposed method effectively classified the area compared to supervised classification using only the RGB image.

본 연구에서는 최근 어류 폐사, 상수원 오염 등의 피해를 발생시키고 있는 녹조를 대상으로 위성영상을 이용한 발생 유무와 분포를 분석하고자 하였다. 녹조는 엽록소를 가지고 광합성을 하므로 식생과 매우 유사한 분광특성을 가진다. 이는 위성영상에서 제공하는 근적외 정보로부터 정규식생지수를 산출하고 그 변화를 분석함으로써 녹조 발생 유무를 식별해낼 수 있음을 의미한다. 연구 대상지역인 대청호는 올해 첫 조류경보가 발령된 수역으로 8월~10월 사이 상류지역을 중심으로 녹조가 발생하였다. 본 연구에서는 Landsat-8 위성영상을 이용하여 대청호에서 발생한 녹조분포를 분석하고, 그 중 높은 농도의 녹조가 발생한 추소리를 직접 방문하여 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV) 자료를 취득하였다. UAV 촬영 영상을 통해 추소리 수역에 녹조가 다량 발생한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후에는 고해상도 위성영상인 플래닛스코프 위성영상을 추가적으로 활용함으로써 녹조 모니터링의 정확성과 적시성을 확보할 예정이다.

This paper deals with auto-landing guidance system design applicable to Smart UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). The proposed guidance law generates horizontal position, velocity and altitude commands in the longitudinal channel and heading angle command in the lateral channel to track a predetermined trajectory for automatic landing. The longitudinal guidance commands are derived from an approximated dynamic equations in vertical plane. These longitudinal guidance commands are appropriately distributed to each control input as the flight mode of Smart UAV is changed. The concept of VOR(VHF Omni-directional Range) guidance system is applied to generate the required heading angle commands to eliminate the lateral deviation from the desired trajectory. The performance of the proposed guidance system for Smart UAV is evaluated using the nonlinear simulation. Simulation results show that the proposed guidance system for auto- landing provides good tracking performance along the predetermined landing trajectory.

최근 무인항공기(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV)가 많은 보급됨에 따라서 다양한 방법으로 이를 제어하기 위한 노력들이 이루어지고 있다. 그 중 NUI/NUX를 이용하여 UAV를 접목하려는 시도가 있다. 전통적인 NUI/NUX는 가상현실에서 시각적인 체감에 많이 의존하고 있지만 동작 인식 센서를 기반으로 가상 에이전트를 제어하는 기법들도 소개되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 모션 인식 센서인 Myo를 사용하여 UAV를 제어하는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 지상 통제소(Ground Control Station, GCS)의 서브시스템이며 전통적인 드론 조종 방법과 같이 양팔로 제어하기 때문에 두 개의 Myo를 사용한다.

This paper proposes time management system for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) network. The computers of the UAVs need time synchronization that time offset does not exceed the minimum interval of data samples for errorless data blending between the computers. The proposed time management system is composed of time synchronization and general management systems for UAV control. The systems communicate each other for time information and control signals. The synchronization system uses improved version of existing time offset estimation that network time protocol (NTP) uses. The time synchronization is operated when the time offset of any UAV exceeds threshold that preconfigured by the general management system. The demonstration of prototype shows stable time synchronization satisfying preconfigured threshold.

Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs) operating in the military for various purposes are designed to transmit information collected according to the purpose to GCS(Ground Control System), and to transmit/receive the vehicle's operational control and status information using wireless communication(or datalink). Currently, the military UAV systems in operation in Korea use unique communication methods, protocols, and message structures for each system. Among these, the Division UAV is designed to transmit fixed size TM/TC data repeatedly and the Corps UAV is designed to transmit aperiodic TM/TC data to the variable length of the message-based. In this paper, we analyze the TM/TC data protocol of existing military UAV systems and present data protocol design method which is considered to be more efficient in wireless communication environment applied to equipment under development. And we will discuss issues to be considered for standardization of technology for ensuring interoperability with many UAVs or newly introduced UAV systems.
