[0003] For example, as Urban Air Mobility (UAM) is expected to help alleviate various problems arising from ground transportation, such as traffic congestion, environmental issues, and air pollution, research for its commercialization is actively underway. In addition, research aimed at ensuring the safe operation and efficiency of UAM is gradually increasing.

[0004] Urban Air Mobility (UAM) is a next-generation three-dimensional transportation service that utilizes electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles to connect points within an urban area (approximately 30 to 50 km range), known as vertiports, and integrate them with other modes of transportation to accommodate transportation demand without congestion. Here, a vertiport is a space where UAMs take off and land, and where passengers can transfer to other modes of public transportation; it is referred to, for example, as a Port, Skyport, or Takeoff and Landing Area (TOLA).

[0005] These urban air mobility (UAM) vehicles are capable of vertical take-off and landing, are electrically operated, and are capable of autonomous driving. Urban air mobility (UAM) is defined as Mobility as a Service (MaaS), or transportation as a service, which combines public transportation means such as subways, buses, trains, and taxis with personal mobility at low altitudes of approximately 300 to 600 meters.

[0006] Meanwhile, blockchain technology, which has continued to gain prominence since cryptocurrencies, can be applied to various fields to provide robust security for decentralized networks. It is evaluated as a core technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, being applied to diverse sectors such as finance and healthcare based on the advantages of guaranteeing data integrity and security and enabling transparent management through P2P distributed computing. This blockchain technology is even being applied to drone flight systems, and the fields in which drone flight systems can be applied are gradually expanding to include agriculture, logistics, and construction. Recently, as they are also being utilized in urban air mobility, the number of drones flying in the skies is predicted to inevitably increase in the future.

[0007] However, existing urban air mobility suffers from weak passenger security, leading to problems such as illegal and dangerous operations. Therefore, there is an urgent need to establish a system that ensures security and stability by applying blockchain technology to prevent illegal and dangerous operations in Urban Air Mobility (UAM).

Specific details for implementing the invention

[0023] Embodiments of the present invention may be modified in various forms, and the scope of the present invention should not be interpreted as being limited by the embodiments described below. These embodiments are provided to more fully explain the present invention to those with average knowledge in the art. Accordingly, the shapes of components in the drawings, etc., are exaggerated to emphasize clearer explanations.

[0024] The UAM operating system with service security applied using blockchain according to the present invention manages user authentication information using blockchain to apply individual user security, and processes various data transmitted between UAM aircraft, vertiports, and control towers secondarily, and separates, distributes, stores, and manages them in a blockchain storage.

[0025] Therefore, the UAM operating system of the present invention applies service security using blockchain to enhance the individual security of passengers, and thereby can prevent illegal and dangerous operations of urban air traffic.

[0026] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the attached FIGS. 1 to 7.

[0027] FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram illustrating the configuration of a UAM operating system with service security applied using blockchain according to the present invention.

[0028] Referring to FIG. 1, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention applies data security on a network in which various data is transmitted between components for providing UAM services, such as UAM aircraft, between UAM aircraft and vertiports, and between vertiports and control towers, to protect data from hacking, terrorism, etc., and separates, distributes, stores, manages, and restores user authentication information, and monitors and manages various data for UAM services and user, i.e., passenger authentication information using a blockchain to prevent collision accidents caused by unauthorized UAM aircraft.

[0029] Accordingly, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention applies service security using blockchain to enhance individual passenger security and protects various data transmitted throughout the entire process, from UAM reservation to approval, boarding, and flight, thereby enhancing security and preventing illegal and dangerous operation of UAM.

[0030] To this end, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention uses a blockchain to separate, distribute, and store various data transmitted between UAM aircraft, between UAM aircraft and vertiports, between vertiports and control towers, between UAM aircraft and control towers, and between user terminals and control towers, thereby monitoring various data related to service operation in real time, and recovering and processing the separated and distributed data during processes such as user authentication, UAM reservation and approval, UAM flight, and UAM take-off and landing.

[0031] In the present invention, while security technology using blockchain generally employs a method of distributing and storing original data on a blockchain, the present invention refers to a technology that converts original data into a hash code and performs secondary processing through encryption, as well as a technology that divides the data—processed once more in addition to the existing primary distribution—into various numbers according to values ​​set by an algorithm and stores them on a blockchain. Furthermore, this algorithm enhances security by applying a technology that prevents the knowledge of how and in what number the processed data is divided. Access to this data is granted after obtaining access rights through various authentication information, such as user biometric information, user-defined patterns, fingerprints, facial recognition, user-defined characters, passwords, etc., thereby applying security to service usage and control to provide improved service security and safety.

[0032] In other words, the blockchain technology currently in use consists of functions for storing and querying data in blocks produced in fragmentary public and private ways, or recovering lost information through a private key. However, the present invention is a comprehensive technology that efficiently compresses, separates, and distributes data stored in blocks for management, and applies secondary processing to primary data processing technology using blockchain for service security.

[0033] The UAM operating system (100) of the present invention is composed of a data modeler, a service modeler, and an interface modeler.

[0034] Specifically, a data modeler is a service platform based on object-oriented techniques that analyzes real-time collected and pre-analyzed data to automatically determine the form and structure of the data and process it for use in services. The data modeler provides a foundation for the comprehensive analysis of UAM-related data and refers to a function that enables the expansion of service configurations by, for example, automatically recognizing, collecting, and managing various sensors required for UAM flight equipped on UAM aircraft and vertiports.

[0035] A service modeler is a service platform necessary for configuring services using data collected and managed through a data modeler for providing UAM-related services, and processes automatically analyzed data to allow for viewing and verifying results. In addition, a service modeler refers to a function that can provide methods for recognizing and responding to flight of UAM aircraft and emergency situations at vertiports through curation functions and deep learning-based learning of artificial intelligence (AI) using collected data.

[0036] Furthermore, the interface modeler is configured to provide protocols and data standardization methods that enable the reception or provision of various data required for developing UAM-related services through interfaces. This allows for the expansion of capabilities, starting with weather and climate data and extending to flight-related information such as airspace data, as well as functions that can be provided to other users as needed. Here, airspace refers to a defined area within a specific range above a certain height from the Earth's surface or sea level to ensure the safe activities of aircraft, UAMs, and the like.

[0037] Therefore, the UAM operating system of the present invention utilizes blockchain to enhance data security and service security, thereby ensuring user authentication and the stability and reliability of UAM flights.

[0038] Next, the configuration and functions of the UAM operating system according to the present invention will be described in detail using FIGS. 2 to 7.

[0039] FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating the network configuration of a UAM operating system with service security applied using a blockchain according to the present invention, FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the configuration according to an embodiment of the UAM operating system shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the configuration for data distribution and restoration using a blockchain shown in FIG. 3, and FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating the network configuration of a UAM operating system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0040] Referring to FIGS. 2 to 5, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention applies service security using blockchain, thereby enabling individual user authentication and preventing illegal and dangerous UAM operations.

[0041] To this end, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention is connected to a plurality of vertiports (200), a plurality of UAM aircraft (300), a plurality of user terminals (400), and a blockchain storage (500) using a communication network (2) to enable data communication.

[0042] Specifically, the communication network (2) includes, for example, a wireless communication network, a mobile communication network, etc., and may be provided as a single communication network of each of these or as a composite communication network in which they are mixed. The communication network (2) is provided to enable mutual data communication with each of the vertiport (200), the UAM aircraft (300), the user terminal (400), and the UAM operating system (100), and with each of the UAM operating system (100), the UAM aircraft (300), the user terminal (400), and the blockchain storage (500).

[0043] A vertiport (200) is provided at a base point corresponding to a certain range of flight areas and functions as a region control tower for that area. The vertiport (200) is provided to enable the take-off and landing of a UAM aircraft (300). The vertiport (200) receives authentication information from a user terminal (400) of a user (i.e., passenger) who has pre-booked and approved the use of the UAM aircraft (300) and transmits it to the UAM operating system (100) of the control tower to enable boarding. If the user is confirmed to be a user who has pre-booked and approved the use of the UAM aircraft (300) by the UAM operating system (100), the vertiport (200) receives various flight data in real time from the UAM aircraft (300) to enable autonomous flight to the vertiport for the destination, and monitors and controls it.

[0044] The UAM aircraft (300) is equipped in the vertiport (200) and carries a user to the destination vertiport for autonomous flight. The UAM aircraft (300) is equipped with various sensors, such as a camera, an infrared sensor, a radar sensor, and a GPS sensor, and acquires various sensor data in real time during autonomous driving through these sensors and transmits them via a communication network to the vertiport (200) and / or the UAM operating system (100) of the control tower. At this time, the UAM aircraft (300) requests necessary data during autonomous driving from the vertiport (200) and / or the UAM operating system (100), receives the data in response, and drives autonomously to the destination.

[0045] The user terminal (400) is equipped with, for example, a mobile terminal such as a smartphone, and in order to use the UAM service, the user registers personal information (e.g., name, contact information, email address, SNS account, etc.) and authentication information (e.g., biometric information such as fingerprints and facial features, joint certificate, login information including ID and password, user-defined pattern, user-defined character, PIN number, etc.) in advance with the UAM operating system (100) via the communication network (2). The user terminal (400) reserves the use of the UAM in advance with the UAM operating system (100) to use the UAM aircraft (300), and receives approval for the reservation from the UAM operating system (100) in response. At this time, the user terminal (400) transmits the user's authentication information to the UAM operating system (100) to receive reservation and approval through the user authentication process. Of course, the user terminal (400) can be applied not only to individual users (B2C) but also to personnel or managers of institutions (B2G) and representatives or managers of business operators (B2B).

[0046] A blockchain storage (500) stores and manages data of a blockchain. To this end, the blockchain storage (500) is composed of at least one master node (510) and multiple sub-nodes (520) distributed from the master node (510). The blockchain storage (500) stores and manages data distributed in multiple pieces, separated from various data for UAM services by the UAM operating system (100), using the master node (510) and sub-nodes (520), and manages the distributed data so that it can be restored upon a request from the UAM operating system (100). This blockchain storage (500) stores and manages typical data for a blockchain, such as blockchain history information, hash codes, and authentication keys for encryption and decryption.

[0047] And the UAM operating system (100) is equipped in a control tower that provides integrated control to provide UAM services based on cloud computing. The UAM operating system (100) is equipped, for example, as a Ground Control System (GCS) to control and perform the functions of the control tower. Here, as shown in FIG. 5, the control tower is equipped with a platform to provide flight-related services such as UAM flight reservation, boarding, and baggage, security services, management and control services, and UAM aircraft services such as takeoff, landing, and maintenance using the UAM operating system (100). In order to provide UAM services to each of the institutions, operators, and individual users, the control tower processes mutual data communication with a Region Control Tower for each flight area equipped at each of the multiple vertiports to identify illegal flights or identify and respond to emergency situations. This control tower is equipped with gateways for software interfaces, hardware interfaces, network interfaces, and utility interfaces, through which data transmission occurs between the UAM airframe, butterport, and UAM operating system, and this gateway can be configured as an expandable platform that can be scaled according to the UAM service provision environment.

[0048] That is, the UAM operating system (100) transmits various data to and from the UAM aircraft (300), vertiport (200), user terminal (400), and blockchain storage (500) in order to provide UAM services to registered users. To this end, the UAM operating system (100) receives and registers user personal information and authentication information from the user terminal (400). The UAM operating system (100) is equipped with a data distribution algorithm and a data recovery algorithm using blockchain, and through this, manages information for separating, distributing, and recovering various data (e.g., number of fragments, encryption and decryption key information, storage node location, hash value, etc.).

[0049] Specifically, the UAM operating system (100) collects data from each of a plurality of UAM aircraft (300), a plurality of vertiports (200: 200a ~ 200n), and a plurality of user terminals (400) through a communication network (2), and analyzes the collected data to identify and extract target data for each of the UAM aircraft (300), vertiports (200), and user terminals (400) to process primary data processing. The UAM operating system (100) determines data for a data identifier from each of the primary processed target data, encrypts it using an asymmetric key algorithm, and processes secondary data processing by hashing the encrypted data. The UAM operating system (100) separates the secondary processed data into multiple pieces according to a preset number of pieces using a blockchain-based data distribution algorithm, and stores the separated pieces in a blockchain storage (500: 510, 520). The UAM operating system (100) processes the application of service security using blockchain to provide UAM services to users.

[0050] The UAM operating system (100) monitors and analyzes data collected from each of the UAM aircraft (300), vertiports (200), and user terminals (400) during the provision of UAM services. At this time, the UAM operating system (100) determines whether an event occurs during the provision of services, and if an event occurs, it uses a data restoration algorithm using a blockchain to read separated and distributed data regarding the data from the blockchain storage (500) to restore the data, and processes the collected data and the restored data to replace the event by comparing and analyzing them.

[0051] In order to provide UAM services according to the present invention, this UAM operating system (100) provides service security by utilizing blockchain for UAM service modeling and security application for the entire service, security application for service data modeling, security application for data interface modeling and the entire service, and security application for UAM service configuration and operation. Accordingly, the UAM operating system (100) can be applied to parts such as UAM data analysis and modeling and data processing, parts regarding UAM service configuration and operation, and parts regarding UAM service interface configuration and operation.

[0052] Furthermore, while this invention describes a service for utilizing UAM aircraft, it is evident that it can be applied to Personal Air Vehicles (PAVs). Here, a Personal Air Vehicle (PAV) is a concept that elevates unmanned aerial vehicle technology to the next level, developing airplanes into personal means of transportation; it is a three-dimensional mobility means that transports people or cargo over urban areas using electric power (e.g., motors, batteries, etc.). Such Personal Air Vehicles provide an innovative means of transportation as a new industry that integrates various technologies and industries, including aviation, automobiles, information and communication technology (ICT), and artificial intelligence (AI).

[0053] The method of operating the UAM operating system of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0054] FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating the operation procedure of a UAM operating system with service security applied using blockchain according to the present invention. This procedure is a computer program processed by the UAM operating system, and is applied to service security to protect various data related to service provision and to process the user authentication process using a blockchain separation, distribution, and restoration algorithm.

[0055] Referring to FIG. 6, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention collects data from each of the UAM aircraft (300), vertiport (200), and user terminal (400) through the communication network (2) in step S600.

[0056] In step S610, the UAM operating system (100) analyzes the collected data to identify and extract target data for each of the UAM airframe (300), vertiport (200), and user terminal (400), and processes primary data processing.

[0057] In step S620, the UAM operating system (100) determines data for a data identifier from each of the extracted target data, encrypts it using an asymmetric key algorithm, and processes secondary data processing by hashing the encrypted data.

[0058] In step S630, the UAM operating system (100) uses a blockchain-based data distribution algorithm to separate the secondary processed data into multiple pieces according to a preset number of pieces, and stores the separated pieces in a blockchain storage (500: 510, 520). Accordingly, outside the blockchain storage, information regarding the data separation and distribution method and the separated data cannot be verified.

[0059] In step S640, the UAM operating system (100) processes to provide UAM services by applying security using blockchain.

[0060] In step S650, the UAM operating system (100) provides services by viewing and utilizing data collected from each of the UAM aircraft (300), vertiport (200), and user terminal (400) during service provision, and monitors and analyzes various data resulting from service provision. When an event occurs, such as an unauthorized passenger, hacking or terrorism on the network, or flight of an unauthorized UAM aircraft, in step S660, the system uses a data restoration algorithm utilizing blockchain to read the separated distributed data regarding the data from the blockchain storage (500) and restore the data. Subsequently, in step S670, the system compares and analyzes the collected data with the restored data to process the event so as to provide a response (e.g., UAM aircraft return, hacking blocking, terrorism response alert, etc.).

[0061] FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating the UAM service process of a UAM operating system according to an embodiment of the present invention. This process is intended to provide UAM services using individual user data, and is processed by interoperability between the UAM operating system (100), vertiport (200), UAM aircraft (300), user terminal (400), and blockchain storage (500) shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3.

[0062] Referring to FIG. 7, when the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention receives origin information, destination information, and user authentication information from a user terminal (400) in step S700 and calls a UAM aircraft (300), in step S710, it determines whether the user is a user who has previously made a reservation and received approval for the use of the UAM service. At this time, the user terminal (400) transmits the user authentication information as biometric information. Accordingly, the UAM operating system (100) restores the separated distributed data stored in the blockchain storage (500) to determine whether the user is an approved user and processes user authentication.

[0063] In step S720, the UAM operating system (100), upon user authentication, controls the UAM aircraft (300) to allow boarding to the user terminal (400) and the departure vertiport (200) corresponding to the departure information. Accordingly, the departure vertiport (200) allows the user to board the UAM aircraft (300) and monitors and controls the UAM aircraft (300) to take off and fly autonomously to the destination vertiport (200) corresponding to the destination information.

[0064] In step S730, when the UAM operating system (100) receives notification from the destination vertiport (200) that the UAM aircraft (300) has arrived at the destination vertiport (200), the system analyzes and utilizes the user's MyData in step S740. At this time, the MyData utilizes data analyzing the user's transportation card analysis data, travel patterns, and travel regions, and analyzes this data by performing deep learning based on artificial intelligence to enable the user to utilize a means of transportation. Subsequently, in step S750, the UAM operating system (100) provides a service to enable the user terminal (400) to move in conjunction with another means of transportation based on the analysis of the user's MyData.

[0065] Accordingly, the UAM operating system (100) of the present invention collects various data in each of the steps (S700 to S750) described above and applies security technology using blockchain. That is, the UAM operating system (100) verifies and extracts target data for each of the user terminal (400), UAM aircraft (300), and vertiport (200), performs primary data processing, encrypts and hashes data for data identifiers using an asymmetric key algorithm, separates and distributes the processed data into multiple pieces using a data distribution algorithm, stores them in a blockchain storage, and allows service-based data to be viewed and utilized according to service provision.

[0066] In the foregoing, the configuration and operation of a UAM operating system with service security using blockchain according to the present invention and the method of operating the same have been illustrated with reference to the detailed description and drawings; however, this is merely an example, and various changes and modifications are possible within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention.
