In the 4th industry, drones are being used while having a close relationship with our lives. The development and use of various drones suggests a new paradigm for the domestic industry in the future, and is expected to become more advanced and scientific. Meanwhile, in the field of defense, efforts are being made in various ways to overcome the social phenomenon of reduced service resources. It is concentrating its efforts on strengthening the national defense power by preparing an exit strategy to supplement the shortage of service resources and to maintain and improve combat power, and by combining various science and technology related to the 4th industry. The military is planning to reinforce its combat power in connection with future industries to effectively respond and perform missions in preparation for the future combat aspects that have been researched and planned, and is planning an unmanned combat system for the science and technology army by investing a separate budget. Therefore, we systematically introduce and utilize drones, which are the core of the unmanned combat system, to create more active combat power and seek countermeasures for the battle vacuum, It is expected to provide a new paradigm for the battlefield when using advanced technology developed in the private sector and grafting it to the military sector.

Automated mission planning for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is difficult because of the propagation of several sources of error into the solution, as for any large scale autonomous system. To ensure reliable system performance, we quantify all sources of error and their propagation through a mission planner for operation of UAVs in an obstacle rich environment we developed in prior work. In this sequel to that work, we show that the mission planner developed before can be made robust to errors arising from the mapping, sensing, actuation, and environmental disturbances through creating systematic buffers around obstacles using the calculations of uncertainty propagation. This robustness makes the mission planner truly autonomous and scalable to many UAVs without human intervention. We illustrate with simulation results for trajectory generation of multiple UAVs in a surveillance problem in an urban environment while optimizing for either maximal flight time or minimal fuel consumption. Our solution methods are suitable for any well-mapped region, and the final collision free paths are obtained through offline sub-optimal solution of an mTSP (multiple traveling salesman problem).

While damage caused by fire increases, awareness of fire is still low. Morever, Small fires often spread into big fires as they fail to keep the golden time due to the delay in initial response. In particular, the initial response is more important in areas where many unauthorized buildings are called " Panjachon " as firefighting facilities are insufficient compared to other residential facilities. Therefore, we will combine BIM technology, drones and IT convergence technologies to develop a firefighting safety information system that can speed up initial response and help combat fires.

Traditionally, the facility inspection was visually conducted by the managers, and consequently the result can be subjective because of different perspective and experience of them. To solve this problem, the studies on this topic has tried to integrate the UAS. However, it is still concerned to use in practice due to the lack of analysis of the performance factors affecting the UAS-based facility condition inspection. Hence, the purpose of this study is to identify the critical factors as well as their correlations by modeling causal loop diagram (CLD). A total of 20 variables were derived in four categorized groups, and the relationships were analyzed. Further study will develop a system dynamics (SD) model to simulate various scenarios based on stock-flow diagram through the defined relationships in this study.

In recent, the demand of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that can autonomous navigation and remote control has been increased in military, civil and commercial field. Particularly, existing researches focused on autonomous navigation method based on vanish point and remote control method based on event processing in indoor environments. However, the existing methods have some problems. For instance, a detected vanish point in intersection point has too much detection errors. In addition, the delay is increased in existing remote control system for processing images in real time. Thus, we propose improved vanish point algorithm by removing detection errors in intersection point. We also develop a remote control system with android platform by separating flying control and image process. Finally, we compare the proposed methods with existing methods to show the improvement of our approaches.

The characteristics of wind sensors were experimentally analyzed and compared for purposes of application in multicopter type drones. For rotating wind sensors, the dynamics effect causes measurement errors, while manufacturing errors and signal processing errors were found to constitute significant errors in ultrasonic sensors. In the ultrasonic sensor, the errors decrease as the distance of the transducer increases. These characteristics were experimentally confirmed, and it was established that ultrasonic sensors capable of outputting voltage or data of 10 Hz or more are suitable for use in multicopters.

Urban Air Mobility (UAM) such as a drone taxi is one of the future transportations that have recently been attracting attention. Along with the construction of an urban terminal, an accurate landing system for UAM is also essential. However, in urban environments, reliable Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) signals cannot be received due to obstacles such as high-rise buildings which causes multipath and non-line of sight signal. Thus, the positioning result in urban environments from the GNSS signal is unreliable. Consequently, we propose the Ultra-Wideband (UWB) network to assist the soft landing of UAM on a vertiport. Since the positioning performance of UWB network depends on the layout of UWB anchors, it is necessary to optimize the layout of UWB anchors. In this paper, we propose a two-steps genetic algorithm that consists of binary genetic algorithm involved multi objectives fitness function and integer genetic algorithm involved robust solution searching fitness function in order to optimize taking into account Fresnel hole effects.
