This paper explains the comparison results of surface current measurement using X-band Radar image through analysis. Measurements were carried out from February 2022 using the X-band Radar for marin ships installed at Sokcho Beach. Based on the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency ocean observation buoys, the accuracy of surface current(current speed) measurement was verified through comparison and analysis of measurement data.

This paper introduces X-band radar-based surface current measurement technique. A marine X-band radar used for navigation was installed at Sokcho Beach to collect surface current data in real time. Based on this, in order to verify the accuracy of the measurement of surface current (Current speed), the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency Marine observation buoy compared it with the data. Data collected from January 2022 were compared and as a result the possibility of surface current(Current speed) measurement using radar confirmed.

현재 임진강 상류 지역을 포함한 한강수계의 일부분이 북한에 속해있다. 북한의 경우 현지조사가 필수적인 계측자료를 구축하는 것이 현실적으로 어렵기 때문에 수문자료를 활용한 강우-유출 분석에 큰 어려움을 갖고 있다. 임진강 유역의 정확한 홍수량 분석은 앞으로 수행될 수문학적 연구에 필수적인 요소이며 북한의 황강댐 무단방류로 인한 남한지역에의 피해 발생 등으로 그 중요성이 더 부각되었다. 최근 레이더 자료를 활용한 수문량 분석에 관한 연구가 많이 수행되고 있다. 레이더 자료의 경우 수문자료의 획득이 어려운 미계측 유역에 대하여 적용성이 기대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 임진강 유역의 레이더 강우 자료의 활용성을 검증하기 위하여 한탄강 유역을 대상으로 레이더 자료를 이용한 강우-유출 분석을 수행하였다. 레이더 자료의 경우 임진강 레이더 및 광덕산 레이더를 사용하여 그 적용성을 비교하였고, 각 레이더의 강우자료를 HEC-HMS에 적용하여 홍수 유출량을 산정한 후 지점 강우량을 활용한 유출량 자료와 비교하였다.

This paper analyzes wave measurement using X-band navigation (ship) radar, changes in radar signal due to snowfall and precipitation, and factors that obstruct wave measurement. Data obtained from the radar installed at Sokcho Beach were used, and data from the Korea Meteorological Administration and the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency were used for the meteorological data needed for comparative verification. Data from the Korea Meteorological Administration are measured at Sokcho Meteorological Observatory, which is about 7km away from the radar, and data from the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency are measured at a buoy about 3km away from the radar. To this point, changes in radar signals due to rainfall or snowfall have been transmitted empirically, and there is no case of an analysis comparing the results to actual weather data. Therefore, in this paper, precipitation, snowfall data, CCTV, and radar signals from the Korea Meteorological Administration were comprehensively analyzed in time series. As a result, it was confirmed that the wave height measured by the radar according to snowfall and rainfall was reduced compared to the actual wave height, and a decrease in the radar signal strength according to the distance was also confirmed. This paper is meaningful in that it comprehensively analyzes the decrease in the signal strength of radar according to snowfall and rainfall.

항해용 X-band 레이더는 물표탐지를 통한 안전한 항해를 목적으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 해당 목적을 위해서는 노이즈로 간주되는 해면반사파(sea clutter)신호는 제거하여 사용하지만, 본 연구에서는 노이즈로 간주되는 해면반사파 신호를 활용하여 파랑에 대한 정보(파고, 파주기, 파향 등)를 파악하는데 활용하였다. 레이더에서 방출되는 전자기파는 펄스의 길이에 의해 탐지할 수 있는 영역이 제한되어 있다. 펄스의 길이가 짧을수록 짧은 주기의 파랑을 계측할 수 있다는 장점이 있지만, 거리의 제약으로 인하여 대형선박의 실 운항시에는 활용하기 어려운 현실적인 딜레마가 있다. 본 연구에서는 삼성중공업, 오션알앤디가 개발한 WaveFinder 시스템을 이용하여 기존 short pulse 모드 뿐만아니라 midium pulse 에서의 활용 가능성을 실제 시운전을 통해 확인하였다.

In general, an error budget of monopulse radar is proposed by manufacturer who assuming that all of external enviromental error resources such as multipath, glint, dynamic lag variation are removed. So until now, a measurement uncertainty of monopulse radar can be discussed including external enviromental error resources. In this paper, it is described that which kinds of error resource can effect on monopulse radar measurement uncertainty for different target property. To prove it experimentally, at first a simulation result is described assuming that all of external enviromental error resources are removed. It only includes receiver thermal noise. And then, monopulse radar measurement uncertainty estimation results tracking on calibration target which is fixed on specific position, calibration sphere which is moving slowly, weapon systems firing test which is moving fast are described quantitativly. All of these targets have different dynamic property.

This paper presents a comparative study of wave height estimation method that was used for signal to noise ratio and shadowing ratio based on X-band marine radar. If the signal to noise ratio, and is widely used as a method for estimating an wave height, a new method is presented for shadowing ratio. In the case of radar images used in this study it is measuring the data from the coast of Ulsan Jujeon, compared with marine meteorological information from the Meteorological Agency measured a light beacon. We compared the measured data for about 34 days, the typhoon was measured, incluidng a period in the East Sea, and verify the results for various distribution of wave height. For estimate wave height using a shadowing ratio analysis, it does not require calibration and real-time advantages of this part, coming confirmed the possibility of the measurement, the cause detection error for radar image was caused due to determine.

파랑은 선박의 안전운항에 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 지금까지의 파랑관측은 부이와 같은 현장관측에 주로 의존하고 있으나, 근년 위성에 의한 리모트센싱의 기술이 발달함에 따라, 파랑계측에 분야에도 시도되고 있다. 하지만 국내에서는 SAR(합성개구레이더)의 처리 경험 자체가 부족하여 본격적인 연구개발이 시작되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SAR를 이용한 파랑계측을 하기 위한 초기단계로, 1) SAR화상에서 파랑의 영상화 메커니즘, 2) 파랑 스펙트럼 추정 기법의 소개를 하고자 한다.

In this paper, usefulness of marine radar for water waves measurement in coastal waters is presented. We installed a marine radar to acquire radar images of water wave around light beacon at Jujeon in Ulsan. Also, a series of analysis procedures for obtaining the wave information from the acquired image is described with a schematic diagram. We compared analysis results of radar images with measurement values using wave height gauge at light beacon. In order to improve accuracy of analysis results, detailed water depth information is essential. In conclusion, in case of the use of radar for water waves measurement, it is shown that it is very necessary to increase the accuracy of measurement by consideration of the water depth in the dispersion relation of water waves.
