With the recent development of defense technology, various aircraft armaments/equipments are being developed. Among them, cruise guided weapons (missile) for launching aircraft can be installed on aircraft after securing reliability and safety through various tests. In order to avoid collision with aircraft, missile separated from aircraft must release restraint of wing at the specified time, control wing in the specified direction. In order to confirm this, a test system that can control MIL-STD-1760 according to safety separation procedure and verify release performance is required. test system needs a function to check circuit for release of restraints and a function to check driving performance by controlling MIL-STD-1760. In addition, test system should be simulate environment separated from aircraft. This paper presented a test system that can verify circuit and driving performance mounted on missile according to the safety separation procedure, and it was confirmed that it was normally separated from aircraft through flight tests.

ICAO has recommended data-based aviation safety management and decision-making systems through Annex 19(Safety Management) and Doc 9859(Safety Management Manual), stressing that safety can be greatly improved by sharing aviation safety information throughout the industry. Accordingly, advanced aviation countries have built infrastructure to collect and analyze various aviation safety data in an integrated manner, and also tried to spread identified major safety issues across the industry. On the other hand, in Korea, each stakeholder collects, manages and analyzes safety data individually, so there is a limit to use them in integrative manner. In addition, the scope of using and sharing aviation safety information such as analysis result is also focused on safety management at the national government level, which is insufficient to be shared throughout the industry. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to present a plan to share and utilize the domestic aviation safety information. To do this, we compare the current situation between FAA and domestic industry and suggest the improvement plans.

Barometers have been used to calculate altitude, and with the development of technology, barometer which had a large volume have now been reduced to about centimeter-level. The altitude calculation using barometer is proceeded using the relationship between reference sea level pressure and the pressure obtained by barometer, and for this, pre-calibration of the barometer is essential. In addition, the barometer has a certain level of bias from actual pressure due to production, and many smartphone manufacturers correct it during the manufacturing process, but it is difficult to correct errors caused by environmental variables. In this paper, we extended methodology of correcting barometer using static reference station to moving drone, and it was possible to calculate the altitude more accurately.

Among the techniques of reinforcement learning, Q-Learning means learning optimal policies by learning Q functions that perform actions in a given state and predict future efficient expectations. Q-Learning is widely used as a basic algorithm for reinforcement learning. In this paper, we studied the effectiveness of selecting and learning efficient paths by designing policies and rewards based on Q-Learning. In addition, the results of the existing algorithm and punishment compensation policy and the proposed punishment reinforcement policy were compared by applying the same number of times of learning to the 8x8 grid environment of the Frozen Lake game. Through this comparison, it was analyzed that the Q-Learning punishment reinforcement policy proposed in this paper can significantly increase the learning speed compared to the application of conventional algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a closed-form based 3D localization method in the presence of multiple signal sources. General localization methods such as TDOA, AOA, and FDOA can estimate a location when a single signal source exists. When there are multiple unknown signal sources, there is a limit in estimating the location. The proposed method calculates a cross-correlation vector of signals received by sensors having an array antenna, and estimates TDOA and AOA values from the cross-correlation values. Then, the coordinate transformation is performed using the position of the reference sensor. Then, the coordinate rotation is performed using the estimated AOA value for the transformed coordinates, and then the three-dimensional position of each emitter is estimated. The proposed method verifies its performance through computer simulation.

Unmanned aircraft system traffic management (UTM) service for the safe operation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) such as drones using commercial communication networks such as long-term evolution (LTE) and 5G in low-altitude areas of 150m or less is being studied in several countries. In this paper, whether it is possible to secure three-dimensional (3D) coverage for UTM service using the existing LTE cellular network for terrestrial users is analyzed through simulations. The practicality in the real environment is confirmed by performing performance analysis in the actual topographical environment and the LTE base station layouts in Korea. According to the analysis results, as the altitude increases, the number of line-of-sight (LOS) interference base stations increases, resulting in a worse signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), but coverage is secured except for the limited areas within 150m. was confirmed to be possible. In addition, it is confirmed that a significant proportion of outage areas could be reduced by placing a small number of additional base stations for the outage area.

Motivated by people highlighting important phrases while reading or taking notes we propose a neural network training method by highlighting defective pixel areas to classify effectively defect types of images with complex background textures. To verify our proposed method we apply it to the problem of classifying the defect types of tire band fabric images that are too difficult to classify. In addition we propose a backlight highlighting technique which is tailored to the tire band fabric images. Backlight highlighting images can be generated by using both the GradCAM and simple image processing. In our experiment we demonstrated that the proposed highlighting method outperforms the traditional method in the view points of both classification accuracy and training speed. It achieved up to 13.4% accuracy improvement compared to the conventional method. We also showed that the backlight highlighting technique tailored for highlighting tire band fabric images is superior to a contour highlighting technique in terms of accuracy.

The international gnss service (IGS) provides real-time service (RTS) orbit and clock correction applicable to the broadcast ephemeris of GNSS satellites. However, since the RTS correction cannot be received if the Internet connection is lost, the RTS correction should be predicted and used when a signal interruption occurs in order to perform stable precise point positioning (PPP). In this paper, PPP was performed by predicting orbit and clock correction using a long short-term memory (LSTM) algorithm in real-time during the signal loss. The prediction performance was analyzed by implementing the LSTM algorithm in RPI (raspberry pi), the processing speed of which is not high. Compared to the polynomial prediction model, LSTM showed excellent performance in long-term prediction.
