Abstract

With development of technology and increase of commercial demand for unmanned aerial system(UAS), the related regulation has been prepared and complemented with the advanced countries such as Unite States and European Union(EU). However it is difficult for regulation to cover all areas of UASs practically since UASs have been developed in a variety of configurations and performance depending on their purpose. Therefore the reasonable criteria for the classification of UASs and their category should be suggested before development of the regulation. For this reason, many countries have been studying the standard for UASs classification and International Civil Aviation Organization(ICAO) makes an effort to prepare the international standards. In this paper, the new classification scheme which can complement domestic regulation is suggested based on investigation of the global trend of UAS classification and their researches.

전 세계적으로 무인기 기술이 발전하고, 민간 수요가 증가함에 따라 각국에서도 제도마련 및 보완을 위해 적극적으로 대응하고 있다. 하지만 무인기 기술은 사용 목적에 따라 다양한 형태, 운용범위, 성능 및 운용방법 등으로 개발되고 있어 각각의 경우에 대한 안전 규정을 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 이에 민간 무인기 분류를 위한 합리적인 기준을 마련하고, 그에 따른 범주를 구분하여 적합한 규정을 개발해야 할 필요가 있다. 현재는 무인기 분류에 있어서 국가별로 다양한 기준과 방법이 고려되고 있으며, 국제민간항공기구(ICAO)에서도 국제 표준을 마련하기 위한 노력을 진행 중이다. 본 논문에서는 전 세계적으로 무인기 카테고리를 분류하는 방식 및 관련 연구 현황을 분석하고, 이와 관련하여 국내 관련 제도의 보완점 및 민간 무인기 분류방안에 대해서 고찰해 보았다.
