ABSTRACT

Unmanned aerial vehicles, which are used in special areas such as military affairs or aerial photography, have been studied mainly by military/national institutions. Recently, however, many varieties of researches on the application of unmanned aerial vehicles are conducted by civil corporations. Accordingly we propose an economical and efficient system for flight operation applicable to small unmanned aerial vehicles in this paper. The proposed system consists of the flight control system and ground control system. The flight control system is designed as a distributed processing system employing the dual AVR processor composed of master-slave in preparation for an abundance of signal processing as well as miniaturization and simple mission performances. The ground control system is implemented to comprise 5 windows displaying flight trajectory, flight attitude, GYRO data, aerial imagery, the states of communication and servo, and the state of piloting respectively on a screen, which can make anyone informed of all the performances at a glance and able to pilot the air vehicle easily. In addition, the user interface of ground control system based on the tablet PC is implemented for the convenience of mobile users. The performance of the implemented system and its applicability to small unmanned aerial vehicles are examined by ground tests.
