Abstract

The optimized flight path planning which is appropriate for UAV operation with high performance and multiplex sensors is required for efficient ISR missions. Furthermore, a mission visualization tool is necessary for the assessment of MoE(Measures of Effectiveness) prior to mission operation and the urgent tactical decision in peace time and wartime. A mission visualization and analysis tool was developed by combining STK and MATLAB, whose tool was used for UAV ISR mission analyses in this study. In this mission analysis tool, obstacle avoidance and FoM(Figure of Merit) analysis algorithms were applied to enable the optimized mission planning.

무인항공기(UAV)를 이용하여 효율적인 감시정찰을 수행하기 위해서는 센서의 고성능, 다중화와 함께 운용상황에 맞는 최적화된 비행경로계획이 요구된다. 이뿐만 아니라 시스템 개발 또는 임무운용 전 임무 효용성 평가, 평시와 전시에 빠른 작전 결정을 위해서는 임무를 가시화할 수 있는 가시화 도구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 STK(Systems Tool Kit)와 MATLAB을 통합한 임무 가시화 및 분석 도구를 개발하고 이를 통하여 UAV 감시정보정찰(ISR; Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) 임무분석을 수행하였다. 개발된 임무분석 도구에는 비행최적화 뿐만 아니라 장애물 회피 알고리즘, FoM(Figure of Merit) 분석 알고리즘이 적용되어 최적의 임무계획이 가능하도록 하였다.
