Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) satellite system for broad-area imaging has RF systems including SAR radiating a high power, data link system transmitting the acquired image data from the SAR, TC&R(Telemetry, Command, and Ranging) to communicate with a ground segment to control a satellite. Each system transmits RF signal having various frequencies and radiates a high power, RS(Radiated Susceptibility) specification should be verified at an electronic unit mounted in satellite. RF interference can be happened because of non-linearity of a RF system. Therefore, we manufactured a structure model installed antennas which have a similar pattern with a real antenna, the effect by RF interference is analyzed and verified.

The detectability of radar depends on RCS(radar cross section). The RCS for complex radar targets may be only approximately calculated by using low-frequency or high-frequency scattering methods, while the RCS for simple radar targets can be exactly obtained by applying on eigen-function method. However, the conventional methods for calculation of RCS are computationally complex. We propose an radar signal model for RCS calculation by MUSIC algorithm In this research, it is assumed that the radar target is considered as a ring of scatterers. The amplitudes of scatterers may be statistically distributed. As the result, the radar signal model is proposed to use MUSIC, and the RCS is calculated by a simple linear algebraic method.

Necessity of compact X-band solid-state weather radar is required to provide weather data, which generate locally in a lot of Korea's mountainous area, rather than tube-type radar. Solid State Power Amplifier (SSPA) for using Dual-polarization method in weather radar is able to obtain desired high output by combining many low output power devices in parallel. Thus, Power combiner applying to high-output power amplifier has disadvantages such as path loss, ballast resistance problem by high frequency and high power, heat release. Therefore, In this paper we demonstrated the excellence of isolation, which is the result from modified Gysel power combiner. As a result, we designed X-band 250W solid state power amplifier with peak power 54dBm, 25% power efficiency for weather radar.

This paper proposes a new switched-capacitor sigma-delta modulator for automotive radars. Developed modulator is used to perform high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) of high frequency band signal in a radar system. It has supply voltage of 2.7V, and has body-effect compensated switch configuration with low voltage and low distortion. The modulator has been implemented in a $0.25{\mu}m$ double-poly and triple-metal standard CMOS process, and it has die area of $1.9{\times}1.5mm^{2}$. It showed better total harmonic distortion of 20dB than the conventional bootstrapped circuit at the supply voltage of 2.7V.

High-Frequency Radar (HF-Radar) data of surface currents in Yeongil Bay (a semi-enclosed sea area of the East Sea) was used to investigate the between wind and horizontal surface currents The variation in horizontal and vertical flow of surface currents correlated closely to the water temperature time-series data of densely spaced (1 to 2 m) layers. During the time-series observation period, when the northeast wind prevailed over the entire Yeongil Bay area, a rapid rise in water temperature was recorded across all the layers. Moreover, currents parallel to the wind direction were clearly observed in low-frequency currents of the surface layer. Time-delayed correlation analysis between wind and surface current confirmed that if northeasterly wind blows in Yeongil Bay and continues unidirectionally, a southwestward surface current occured within a short period of time (1 to 2 hours). Convergence and divergence were calculated from the daily average values of low-frequency surface currents. A rapid rise in temperature occurred in the lower layers of water at the observation points, due to the convergence (downwelling) of the surface seawater (relatively high temperature water) associated with the northeasterly wind.
