초록

본 연구에서는 항공 시뮬레이터인 Prepar3D를 활용하여 무인 항공기 모의 시스템을 구성하고, EO/IR 모의 소프트웨어를 설계 및 구현하였다. EO/IR 모의 소프트웨어는 EO/IR Model(EOM), Prepar3D Controller(P3DC), Prepar3D Position Tracker(PPT)로 구성되며, 소프트웨어를 목적에 따라 모듈 단위로 분리함으로써 소프트웨어의 결합도(coupling)를 낮추고 기능적인 응집도를 높였다. 그 결과, 유지보수 및 개발 편의성이 향상되었다. 본 논문에서는 EO/IR 모의 소프트웨어 모듈의 각 설계/구현 내용과 이를 바탕으로 항공기 모의 시스템에 적용한 결과에 대해 설명한다.

Abstract

In this study, we designed and implemented an unmanned aircraft simulation system using Prepar3D, an aviation simulator, and designed and implemented EO/IR simulation software. The EO/IR simulation software consists of EO/IR Model (EOM), Prepar3D Controller (P3DC), and Prepar3D Position Tracker (PPT). By separating each software into modules according to their purpose, the coupling of the software was reduced and functional cohesion was increased. As a result, the convenience of maintenance and development was improved. In this paper, describes the design/implementation of each EO/IR simulation software module and the results of applying it to an aircraft simulation system.
