GLOBAL MAPPING OF NEAR-EARTH MAGNETIC FIELDS MEASURED BY KITSAT-1 AND KITSAT-2
KITSAT-1과 KITSAT-2에서 관측한 지구자기장의 분포
Abstract
The magnetic field measurements from the KitSat-1 and KitSat-2 were tested by comparing with the IGRF model. The magnetic data have been collected by a three-axis fluxgate magnetometer on each satellite at an latitude of 1,325 km and 820 km, respectively. To avoid highly variable magnetic disturbances at the polar region, the field map has been within the limits of 50 degrees in latitude. Each data is averaged over the square of
