Abstract

The purpose of this study was to address a Remote Airborne Control Simulator that could simulate manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T mission) for fixed wing UAV. With rapid technological development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the mission capability of UAV has tremendously grown. The role of UAV extends from simple reconnaissance to highly automated wingman. Accordingly, the requirement of UAV ground simulator should be modified as well to meet function requirements for simulating a MUM-T mission. A developed remote airborne control simulator was developed for conducting fixed wing UAV MUM-T operation simulations on the ground. The newest MUM-T examples, usage, and application of the developed remote airborne control simulator for MUM-T simulation are also presented in this study.

본 논문은 고정익 유·무인기 협업을 모의하는 원격공중통제 시뮬레이터에 관하여 기술한다. 무인기의 급격한 기술개발을 통해 무인기의 임무 능력은 크게 성장하였다. 무인기의 역할은 단순 정찰 임무에서 부터 전자전, 근접 공중 지원, 유·무인 협업과 같은 복합 임무까지 수행할 수 있도록 발전하고 있다. 이에, 지상에서 이러한 복합 임무를 모의할 수 있는 환경에 대한 개발 요구가 커지고 있다. 원격공중통제 시뮬레이터는 고정익 유·무인기 협업 기술 개발을 위해 지상에서 유·무인 협업 임무모의 수행을 위하여 개발되었다. 최신의 유·무인 협업 연구 사례와 더불어 원격공중통제 시뮬레이터의 무인기 임무 수행 모의 환경 활용과 적용에 대하여 기술하고자한다.
