An Engineering Model(EM) of the Telemetry-Command Unit(TCU) for STSAT-2 was developed. The TCU of STSAT-2 has some improved features compared with that of STSAT-1. To reduce weight and size of TCU all logics are implemented in FPGA without CPU. EM I&T(Integration and Test) was successfully performed with no errors.

This paper compares the performance of Mass Memory Unit(MMU) between Science and Technology Satellite 1(STSAT-1) and STSAT-2 from developed Proto Flight Model(PFM) for Miniaturization, lightweight and low power consumption. MMU receives the payload data at 200Kbps and transmits them to XTX at 10Mbps in the STSAT-2. The performance of PFM MMU in the Functional and space environments test satisfies the requirements of STSAT-2.

The Engineering Model of STSAT-2 on-board computer(OBC) was developed and tested completely with other sub-systems. The on-board computer of STSAT-2 has a high- performance PowerPC processors and a structure of centralized network communication. In addition, a lot of logics are implemented by Field Programmable Gate Array, such as interrupt controller, watchdog timer and UART. It could make the weight and size of OBC lighter and smaller. Also, the STSAT-2 on-board computer has more improved tolerance against Single Event Upsets and faults than that of the STSAT-1.

STSAT-2 is the first satellite which will be launched by the first Korean Space Launch Vehicle(KSLV). Ground station Baseband Control system(GBC) is now developed for STSAT-2. GBC has two functions. One is control data path between satellite control computers and ground station antennas(1.5M, 3.7M, 13M) automatically. The other is sending and receiving data between ground station and satellite. GBC is implemented by FPGA(Field-Programmable Gate Array) which includes almost all logic(for MODEM, PROTOCOL and GBC system control). MODEM in GBC has two uplink FSK modulators(1.2[kbps], 9.6[kbps]) and six downlink FSK demodulators(9.6[kbps], 38.4[kbps]). In hardware, STSAT-2 GBC is smaller than STSAT-1 GBC. In function, STSAT-2 GBC has more features than STSAT-1 GBC. This paper is about GBC structure, functions and test results.

STSAT-2 has an on-board satellite retroreflector array for precise orbit determination. Satellite retroreflector array reflects photon emitted from laser and uses to determine precisely the distance from ground station to satellite by the round-trip travel time of photon. The retroreflector array of protoflight model has been developed and verified through environmental tests. This paper describes the protoflight model of retroreflector array and reports environmental test results. The environmental tests of protoflight model retroreflector array were performed successfully without damage of corner cube prism occurred in engineering model development.
