Development of Autonomous Reconnaissance Flight Simulation for Unmanned Aircraft to Derive Flight Operating Condition

The efficiency and effectiveness of mission performance can be greatly changed according to the operating conditions such as the number of manned aircraft, flight altitude, and so on, in performing search and reconnaissance missions using a large number of small reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicles. However, it is not easy to determine which operating conditions are most reasonable. Therefore, in this study, we developed an unmanned airplane flight simulation that can detect and identify the target while avoiding collision according to autonomous flight, suggesting a way to derive operating conditions when operating a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles.
