For implementing the proportional navigation guidance law on passive homing missiles equipped with strapdown imaging infrared seekers, the line-of-sight angles and rates with respect to the inertial frame should be estimated by carefully handling the parasitic instability effect due to the seeker's latency. By introducing a new state vector representation along with the Pade approximation for compensating the time-delay of the seeker, this paper proposes a new guidance filter structure, stochastic dynamic models and measurement equations, in three-dimensional homing problem. Then, it derives the line-of-sight angle and rate estimator in general two-dimensional engagement by applying the extended Kalman filter to the proposed structure. The estimation performance and the characteristics of the proposed filter were evaluated via a series of numerical experiments.

Ryu et al. proposed a multiple target angle-tracking algorithm without a data association problem using angular innovations. This algorithm, however, needs the computational loads in proportion to the square number of sensors regardless of the number of targets, because it uses a nonlinear equation between the signal subspace and angular innovation. In this Paper, we proposed an efficient algorithm for the multiple target angle-tracking using angular innovations. The proposed algorithm extracts the angular innovations from noise subspace. Also, it is demonstrated by computer simulations dealing with the tracking of crossing targets. The simulation results show that the computational loads of the proposed algorithm are $80\%$ and $60\%$ of those of Ryu's algorithm for 3 targets and 6 targets without degrading the performance of the target tracking.

It is generally recommended to use EVM as an efficient means for measuring project performance and progress so that the EVMS user could manage his project successfully. In spite of it's favorable intention, most project participants think it as a heavy load or a sub practiced job with low responsibility. Even though there are lots of variables triggering unpredictable troubles in EVM application, EVM still could be a valuable project health indicator. In this paper we introduce a performing method for EVM based on system engineering process.

In this paper, we have developed an evaluation model of technology green index(TGI) which includes 3 evaluation factors and 13 indicators. Furthermore, as presenting the degree of relative importance among evaluation factors and indicators for all R&D evaluation stages and all green technology areas, and applying the proposed model to 5 defense projects, we have found applicability of the model to evaluation of defense R&D projects. The results of evaluation using this model can be used to monitor the performance of project life cycle and develop R&D investment strategy of green technology using portfolio analysis.

The combustion pressure and thrust of aft-igniter were measured to investigate the characteristics of ignition charge. Granule and pellet shape ignition charge of $BKNO_3$ and MTV(Magnesium-Teflon-Viton) were used for igniters. Ignitions with granule charges show abrupt increases of combustion pressure and thrust compared to those of pellet charge. $BKNO_3$ igniter shows higher combustion pressure than MTV igniter due to higher combstion rate. Mg particle size affects the combustion pressure of MTV igniter.

This study aims to the increasing the reliability of gun firing system of patrol killer guided missile from failure mode analysis. In order to find out the breakdown parameter, the examination process of the sources of the problems and the quality improvement activities are analyzed with performance testing data. From this study, the rate of operation and the reliability of 76 mm naval guns will be increase. And the result of the study is expected to be used as a reference data in the naval gun firing system for another failure mode analysis.

The terrain perception technology using passive sensors plays a key role to enhance autonomous mobility for UGV. We present an effective method to classify terrain covers based on the color information. Considering a real-time implementation, neural network is applied for the terrain classifier and wavelet features extracted from the images are used. Test results show that the proposed algorithm has a promising classification performance.

This paper describes design results of the measurement system to test the properties of broadband AC magnetic field sensors used in weapon system. This measurement system consists of 3-axis helmholtz coil, signal generator, signal amplifier, sensor data acquisition unit and measurement & analysis controller including the operating software. This system is able to measure various properties of AC magnetic field sensor such as sensitivity, linearity and dynamic response in the frequency of 1 Hz to 10 kHz. The performance of this system was verified by measuring and analyzing the property of a MAG 639, standard magnetic field sensor of bartington instruments, with this developed system.

In this paper, we consider a relaying system which employs a single relay in a wireless network with distributed sources and destinations. Here, all source, destination, and relay nodes are equipped with multiple antennas. For amplify-and-forward relay systems, we confirm the achievable sum rate through a joint multiple source precoders and a single relay filter design. To this end, we propose a new linear processing scheme in terms of maximizing the sum rate performance by applying a blockwise relaying method combined with geometric programming techniques. By allowing the global channel knowledge at the source nodes, we show that this joint design problem is formulated as a standard geometric program, which can guarantees a global optimal value under the modified sum rate criterion. Simulation results show that the proposed blockwise relaying scheme with the joint power allocation method provides substantial sum rate gain compared to the conventional schemes.

In this paper we propose a new RF range measurement method. Using two codes which have different chip rate, we transmit one code toward the direction of targets and calculate the distance by comparing it with the other untransmitted reference code. Because the measuring process is fully digitalized, the stability, resolution, flexibility, and compactness of the system are good. Some experimental results are provided to show the validity and the performance of the proposed method.
