Abstract

The S-band telemetry and telecommand formats for geostationary orbit satellites should have sufficient reliability, since they transmit massive satellite health data and receive the mission commands in the 36,000km of the geostationary orbit. Also, they have to efficiently manage the large quantity of satellite health data under the limited data transmission rate. Cheollian-2A and 2B satellites were developed by Korea Aerospace Research Institute and launched at 2018 and 2020, respectively. Their missions are to conduct continuously the mission of Cheollian-1, which was the first geostationary orbit satellite of Korea. Therefore, the fundamental S-band data format design for Cheollian-2A and 2B should meet the requirements of Cheollian-1. Meanwhile the latest remote data processing techniques for these newest geostationary orbit satellites should be implemented. In this paper, the advanced S-band space data formats and management methods are proposed for more efficient data transmission, reception and operation with the limited data rate of the geostationary orbit satellites. The implemented results in the flight software of Cheollian-2A and 2B are described in detail.

정지궤도위성의 원격데이터 통신 포맷은 제한된 통신 속도 대비 대량으로 생성되는 위성 데이터를 효율적으로 수신하고, 36,000km 고도에서 운영되는 정지궤도위성의 원격명령어 수신 결과를 정확하게 확인하기 위해 설계된다. 한국항공우주연구원에서 개발하여 2018년과 2020년에 각각 발사 및 운영 중인 천리안2A호와 2B호는 한국 최초의 정지궤도위성인 천리안1호의 임무를 연속하여 수행하도록 설계되었다. 따라서 정지궤도위성과 지상국의 안정적이고 효율적인 원격 통신을 위해 필요한 원격 통신 설계 요소들을 승계하였다. 한편, 원격 데이터의 처리 및 운영을 담당하는 천리안 2A호와 2B호의 탑재소프트웨어는 다목적위성시리즈를 통해 그 성능이 더욱 개선되어 왔으며 최신의 원격 데이터 처리 및 운영 알고리즘이 구축되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 정지궤도위성의 향상된 원격 데이터 송수신을 위한 원격명령어 및 원격측정데이터의 포맷 및 운영 개념 설계를 제안하고, 실제 천리안 2A호와 2B호의 탑재소프트웨어에 적용된 내용들을 상세하게 기술한다.
