Black carbon concentrations were measured along the altitude at various locations using a drone coupled with a small black carbon detector. The measurement locations are Eunseok Mountain, downtown, four places in KOREATECH campus, Byeongcheon, Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do, and Chungbu Expressway in Ochang-eup, Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do. The average concentration of black carbon measured in Eunseok Mountain was $1.64{\mu}g/m^3$ and the average concentration near the Chungbu Expressway was measured to be $3.86{\mu}g/m^3$. The average concentrations of four places inside campus ranged from 1.37 to $2.67{\mu}g/m^3$. The concentration of black carbon at all places tended to be slightly decreased according to the altitude, but the influence of pollution source, geometry, wind speed, and wind direction are thought to be larger than the effect of altitude. Effect of air flow caused by drone flight on the measurement of black carbon were investigated and it resulted in that the measurement of BC concentration was affected by less than 5%.

Multi disciplinary approach for aerodynamics, structure, propulsion, and flight control system is necessary to develop High Altitude Long Endurance Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (HALE UAV). Various HALE UAV development trends are surveyed to understand their operational requirements. Separating the UAV Take Off Weight by 150kg, Airworthiness implementation direction for HALE UAV is studied under the current Airworthiness regulations. NATO STANAG 4671 and STANAG 4703 Airworthiness certification criteria are analyzed, and their applicability was proposed for future HALE UAV development. In addition, minimization of the risk for UAV is studied by considering probability of cumulative catastrophic failure for HALE UAV. This Hazard Risk Index can support the future UAV Airworthiness Certification Criteria.

An APU(Auxiliary Power Unit) for helicopters has been developed in Korea and tested at the AETF(altitude engine test facility) in KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) for the purpose of the military qualification. A cell correlation test was performed before the official test, and the results are within the tolerance. The APU has the capability of supplying electric power as well as compressed air to the helicopters. It was tested at bleed extraction conditions, electric power extraction conditions, and maximum continuous concurrent power conditions within the entire helicopter flight envelop. Some special test equipments were implemented for the measurement of air flowrate, electric power and so on. The tests were successfully performed and their results satisfy the requirements of the helicopters.

드론은 비행 목적을 달성하기 위해 고도 유지를 필요로 하는 경우가 많다. 일반적으로 드론의 고도 유지 기능은 현재 측정되는 고도 정보에 따라 드론을 상승시키거나 하강시키는 작업을 반복하는 것을 의미한다. 고도 유지 중에 모터 속도 차이로 인한 추력의 불균형이나 바람 등의 외적 요인으로 인해 드론의 고도가 계속 변한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 고도를 유지하기 위해서는 기본적으로 계속해서 변하는 드론의 고도를 정확하게 측정해야 한다. 드론의 고도 측정 방법은 일반적으로 가속도센서를 사용한다. 이 방법은 적분 오차 누적으로 인한 측정값이 발산하는 문제와 드론의 기체 진동조차 고도 변화로 인지하는 문제가 존재한다. 그래서 상용 드론이나 기존 연구에서는 가속도센서를 제외한 별도의 센서를 추가하여 고도 측정에 사용한다. 그러나 추가하는 센서 대부분은 측정거리에 제한이 있으며 여러 센서들을 같이 사용하는 경우 센서 값들의 연산 처리가 많아져 고도 측정 속도가 지연될 우려가 있다. 따라서 드론의 고도 유지, 고도 측정 성능에 영향을 주지 않으면서 정확한 고도를 측정할 수 있는 방안이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 가속도센서를 이용하는 일반적인 고도 측정 방법을 개선한 측정 알고리즘을 제안하고 본 알고리즘을 적용한 결과로 고도 유지와 고도 측정의 정확성이 향상됨을 보인다.

There are several methods to improve the flight efficiency of HALE(High Altitude Long Endurance) UAV(Unmaned Aerial Vehicle). Airframe structural point of view, weight reduction of the airframe structure is the most important method to improve the flight efficiency. In order to reduce the weight of airframe structures, new concepts which are different from traditional airframe structure design such as the mylar wing skin should be introduced. The spar is the most important component in a mylar skin wing structure, so the spar weight reduction is the key point for reduction of the wing structural weight. In this study, design trade-off study for the front spar of the HALE UAV wing is conducted in order to reduce the weight. Design and analysis procedure of high aspect ratio wing spar are introduced. Several front spar structures are designed and trade-off study regarding the weight and strength for the each spar are performed. Spar design configurations are verified by the static strength test. Finally, optimal front spar design is decided and applied to the HALE UAV wing design.

비행체의 궤적 최적화를 위해서는 비행체의 특성을 반영한 3차원 운동방정식이 유도되어야 하며, 비행선과 같이 공기보다 가벼운 비행체의 경우는 일반 고정익 항공기와는 다른 특성들을 반영하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 중고도 무인비행선의 궤적 최적화를 위해 비행선의 운동방정식을 유도하고, 이를 이용한 최소시간 문제를 다루었다. 최적 궤적을 얻기 위하여 최적 궤적 문제를 제어입력 파라미터화를 이용한 비선형 프로그래밍 문제로 변환한 후 연속 2차 계획법을 이용하여 궤적을 산출하였으며, 이에 대한 수치결과를 나타내었다.

Korea Multi-Purpose SATellite(KOMPSAT) is scheduled to be launched by TAURUS launch vehicle in November, 1999. Tracking, Telemetry and Command(TT&C) operation and the flight dynamics support should be performed for the successful Launch and Early Orbit Phase(LEOP) operation. After the first contact of the KOMPSAT spacecraft, initial orbit determination using ground based tracking data should be performed for the acquisition of the orbit. Although the KOMPSAT is planned to be directly inserted into the Sun- synchronous orbit of 685 km altitude, the orbit maneuvers are required fur the correction of the launch vehicle dispersion. Flight dynamics support such as orbit determination and maneuver planning will be performed by using KOMPSAT Mission Analysis and Planning Subsystem(MAPS) in KOMPSAT Mission Control Element(MCE). The KOMPSAT MAPS have been jointly developed by Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute(ETRI) and Hyundai Space & Aircraft Company(HYSA). The KOMPSAT MCE was installed in Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI) site for the KOMPSAT operation. In this paper, the orbit determination and maneuver planning are introduced and simulated for the KOMPSAT spacecraft in LEOP operation. Initial orbit determination using short arc tracking data and definitive orbit determination using multiple passes tracking data are performed. Orbit maneuvers for the altitude correction and inclination correction are planned for achieving the final mission orbit of the KOMPSAT.

An airborne radar is an essential aviation electronic system of the helicopter to perform various missions in all-weather environments. This paper presents the conceptual design results of the multi-mode pulsed Doppler radar system testbed model for helicopter. Due to the inherent flight nature of the hovering vehicle which is flying in low-altitude and low speed, as well as rapid maneuvering, the moving clutters from the platform should be suppressed by using a special MTD (Moving Target Detector) processing. For the multi-mode radar system model design, the flight parameters of the moving helicopter platform were assumed: altitude of 3 Km, average cruising velocity of 150knots. The multi-mode operation capability was applied such as short-range, medium-range, and long-range depending on the mission of the vehicle. The nominal detection ranges is 30 Km for the testbed experimental model, but can be expanded up to 75 Km for the long range weather mode. The detection probability of each mode is also compared in terms of the signal-to noise ratio of each mode, and the designed radar system specifications ate provided as a design results.

This paper presents a vision/LiDAR integrated navigation system that provides accurate relative navigation performance on a general ground surface, in GNSS-denied environments. The considered ground surface during flight is approximated as a piecewise continuous model, with flat and slope surface profiles. In its implementation, the presented system consists of a strapdown IMU, and an aided sensor block, consisting of a vision sensor and a LiDAR on a stabilized gimbal platform. Thus, two-dimensional optical flow vectors from the vision sensor, and range information from LiDAR to ground are used to overcome the performance limit of the tactical grade inertial navigation solution without GNSS signal. In filter realization, the INS error model is employed, with measurement vectors containing two-dimensional velocity errors, and one differenced altitude in the navigation frame. In computing the altitude difference, the ground slope angle is estimated in a novel way, through two bisectional LiDAR signals, with a practical assumption representing a general ground profile. Finally, the overall integrated system is implemented, based on the extended Kalman filter framework, and the performance is demonstrated through a simulation study, with an aircraft flight trajectory scenario.
