Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) is a powerful and well established microwave remote sensing technique which enables high resolution measurement of Earth surface independent of weather conditions and sunlight illumination. KARI has been developing the first Korea SAR satellite which is scheduled to be launched in this year. The SAR satellite mainly consists of the bus platform and SAR payload. Most of all, the RF compatible design during the design phase and the verification of the RF compatibility during the testing phase is very important procedure for the in-orbit performance guarantee because the SAR payload radiates high power through the SAR antenna. In this study, the SAR satellite design criteria and verification procedure for the RF compatibility are described. In addition, this paper describes the RF full radiation testing (RF auto-compatibility testing) for the verification of the RF performance robustness, the testing configuration, and the test results.

로켓엔진 추력발생용으로 광범위하게 사용되는 액체추진제는 고성능, 대용량의 액체추진제 로켓엔진에서는 필연적으로 고주파 연소불안정의 문제를 수반하며, 이 연소불안정의 정도는 연소성능과 더불어 엔진개발의 성패를 좌우하는 중요한 여건이 된다. 따라서 안정한 로켓의 비행을 보장하기 위해서는 연소불안정의 문제가 선결되어야 한다. 연소불안정의 기본 메커니즘은 연소기에서 발생하는 압력섭동에 반응하여 불안정한 음향에너지를 되먹임하는 연소과정으로 설명된다. 연소불안정 현상이 발견된 이후 실험 및 이론적 접근에 의해 이와 같은 연소불안정 메커니즘 및 예측에 대한 체계적인 연구가 이루어져 왔으며, 현재까지의 다양한 고주파 연소불안정 예측방법 중에서 음향 및 기화 응답함수를 이용하는 방법은 직관적 고찰에 의존하는 단순한 연소모델을 적용하며 주로 음향적 섭동에 의한 연소의 반응을 연소안정성 평가의 파라메터로 사용한다. 이와 같은 음향적인 예측방법은 연소불안정 현상을 이론적으로 전개하므로 경제적으로 각종 설계변수에 대한 연소불안정의 변화를 구분할 수 있는 장점이 있어 성능 및 호환설계와 병행하여 로켓엔진 연소실의 초기 안정성 설계방법으로 주로 사용된다.

The COMS(Communication, Ocean & Meteorological Satellite)is the geostationary satellite which will be performing three main objectives such as meteorological service, ocean monitoring and Ka-band satellite communications. This paper presents the analysis of the electromagnetic radiated compatibility between COMS satellite and the ARIANE 5 launch vehicle. As a conclusion, a good level of confidence can be given at present time to demonstrate the compatibility between the spacecraft and the launcher, and vice versa. No threat has been identified regarding the other units powered during launch mode.

Wideband speech, characterized by a bandwidth of about 7 kHz (50-7000 Hz), provides a substantial quality improvement in terms of naturalness and intelligibility. Although higher data rates are required, it has extended its application to audio and video conferencing, high-quality multimedia communications in mobile links or packet-switched transmissions, and digital AM broadcasting. In this paper, we present a new bandwidth-scalable coder for wideband speech and audio signals. The proposed coder spits 8kHz signal bandwidth into two narrow bands, and different coding schemes are applied to each band. The lower-band signal is coded using the ITU-T G.729/G.729E coder, and the higher-band signal is compressed using a new algorithm based on the gammatone filter bank with an invertible auditory model. Due to the split-band architecture and completely independent coding schemes for each band, the output speech of the decoder can be selected to be a narrowband or wideband according to the channel condition. Subjective tests showed that, for wideband speech and audio signals, the proposed coder at 14.2/18 kbit/s produces superior quality to ITU-T 24 kbit/s G.722.1 with the shorter algorithmic delay.

Due to the advantage of wavelet transform such as the compatibility with JPEG2000, multi-resolution decomposition, and application of HVS(Human Visual System), watermarking algorithm based on wavelet transform (DWT) is recently mast interesting research subject. However, mast of researches are focused on theoretical aspects for the robustness rather than practical usage, and. may be not suitable too much complicated to use in practice. In this paper, robust logo watermarking algorithm based on DWT is proposed for large and huge data processing. The proposed method embeds the logo watermark by mapping of $8{\times}8$ blocks in order of the number of '1' of the original image and the randomized watermark image with LFSR. The original image is transformed by 2 level wavelet. The experimental results shows that the watermark is embedded successfully, and the proposed algorithm has the valuable robustness from the image processing like JPEG compression, low pass filter, high pass filter and changes in brightness and contrast.
