본 논문은 위성간 링크를 이용하여 저궤도 위성망을 구성할 때 발생하는 링크 할당 문제를 효율적으로 풀기 위한 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 먼저 위성 궤도 운동의 주기성에 기반하여 저 궤도 위성망을 유한 상태기계로 모델링한 후에, 유한 상태기계의 각 상태에서 최적의 링크 할당을 구하기 위해서 조합형 최적화 문제에 많이 쓰이는 시뮬레이티드 어닐링을 이용한다. 제안된 기법의 잇점은 저궤도 위성망을 유한 상태기계로 모델링함으로써 동적인 움직임을 보이는 저궤도 위성망에서의 링크할당 문제를 고정된 위상을 가지는 망에서의 링크할당 문제로 단순화 시키고 이를 토대로 최적화 기법을 적용할 수 있다는 것이다. 시뮬레이티드 어닐링에 의하여 최적화된 링크할당의 성능은 정규링크 할당과의 비교.분석을 통해서 평가된다. 또한, 각 링크할당에 대하여 정적경로배정과 동적경로배정 기법이 적용된다. 시뮬레이션을 통한 실험결과는 정적경로배정을 적용한 최적링크할당 기법이 음성호의 봉쇄확률 측면에서 최고의 성능을 보임을 알려준다.

With a total 2780 eclipsing binary systems in the Catalogue of Approximate Photometric and Absolute Elements of Eclipsing Variable Stars by Svechnikov & Kuznetsova(1990), the empirical relations between the systemic mass and orbital argular momentum have been examined. It is found that, during the its evolution, the total orbital argular momentum of the eclipsing binary sustem is not conserved. It decreases gradually, though not at a constant rate, until the system becomes into contact from initially detached via semi-detached system.

지구관측용 광학탑재체를 탑재한 저궤도위성은 내부부품보호를 위해 표면처리와 같은 수동적 기법과 히터동작과 같은 능동적 기법을 함께 사용을 한다. 내부열손실을 막기 위해 위성외부의 거의 모든 부분을 단열재(MLI)로 감싸게 되며, 각 단열재는 견고하게 고정이 된다. 광학탑재체는 구성품의 보호와 최적성능의 영상획득을 위해 다수의 히터가 장착되는데, 각 히터는 가열대상물의 온도를 실시간으로 측정하여 미리 설정된 On/Off 온도를 기준으로 제어가 된다. 궤도상에서 탑재체가 겪게 되는 다양한 궤도열환경 시나리오에 대한 열해석결과를 이용하여 히터의 위치, 용량 및 제어온도가 결정된다. 궤도상 운용 중, 위성을 보호하는 단열재 사이에 미세한 틈이 발생한 가상적인 상황을 가정하여, 탑재체 히터의 임무주기변화와 탑재체 운용에의 영향을 분석한다.

Recently, many nations are operating and developing Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Also, Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS), which uses the geostationary orbit, is operated presently in order to improve the performance of GNSS. The most widely-used SBAS is Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) of GPS developed by the United States. SBAS uses various algorithms to offer guaranteed accuracy, availability, continuity and integrity to its users. There is algorithm for guarantees the integrity of the satellite. This algorithm calculates the satellite errors, generates the correction and provides it to the users. The satellite orbit errors are calculated in three-dimensional space in this step. The reference placement is crucial for this three-dimensional calculation of satellite orbit errors. The wider the reference placement becomes, the wider LOS vectors spread, so the more the accuracy improves. For the next step, the regional features of the US and Korea need to be analyzed. Korea has a very narrow geographic features compared to the US. Hence, there may be a problem if the three-dimensional space method of satellite orbit error calculation is used without any modification. This paper suggests a method which uses scalar values to calculate satellite orbit errors instead of using three-dimensional space. Also, this paper proposes the feasibility for this method for a narrow area. The suggested method uses the scalar value, which is a projection of orbit errors on the LOS vector between a reference and a satellite. This method confirms the change in errors according to the baseline distance between Korea and America. The difference in the error change is compared to present the feasibility of the proposed method.

The effect of air drag was researched when a low-earth orbit spacecraft using power-limited thruster rendezvoused another low-earth orbit spacecraft. The air density was assumed to decrease exponentially. The radius of parking orbit was 6655.935km and that of target orbit was 7321.529km. From the trajectories of active vehicles, the fuelconsumption and the magnitude of thrust acceleration, we could conclude that the effect of air drag had to be considered in fuel optimal rendezvous problem between low-earth orbit spacecrafts. In multiple-revolution rendezvous case, the air drag was more effective.

A long-term prediction algorithm of geostationary orbit was developed using the analytical method. The perturbation force models include geopotential upto fifth order and degree and luni-solar gravitation, and solar radiation pressure. All of the perturbation effects were analyzed by secular variations, short-period variations, and long-period variations for equinoctial elements such as the semi-major axis, eccentricity vector, inclination vector, and mean longitude of the satellite. Result of the analytical orbit propagator was compared with that of the cowell orbit propagator for the KOREASAT. The comparison indicated that the analytical solution could predict the semi-major axis with an accuracy of better than $pm35$ meters over a period of 3 month.

To construct the accurate radio satellite navigation system, the efficient communication each satellite with the ground station is very important. Throughout the communication, the orbit of each satellite can be corrected, and those information will be used to analyze the satellite satus by the operator. Since there are limited resources of ground station, the schedule of antenna's azimuth and elevation angle should be optimized. On the other hand, the satellite in the medium earth orbit does not pass the same point of the earth surface due to the rotation of the earth. Therefore, the antenna pass schedule must be updated at the proper moment. In this study, Q learning approach which is a form of model-free reinforcement learning and genetic algorithm are considered to find the optimal antenna schedule. To verify the optimality of the solution, numerical simulations are conducted.

GEO-KOMPSAT-2A and GEO-KOMPSAT-2B are under development by KARI to replace the COMS mission, and will be launched in 2018 and 2019, respectively. GEO-KOMPSAT-2 will be launched and injected into the GTO (Geostationary Transfer Orbit) by the Ariane V launcher. Once injected into the GTO, the satellites are transferred to the drift orbit by applying a series of apogee engine burns. The burn epoch time, duration, and intervals are selected such that the satellite is placed closest to the target drift longitude, or at the drift start longitude. For GEO-KOMPSAT-2, four or five LAE (Liquid Apogee Engine) burns will be applied for drift orbit injection. This paper establishes the GEO-KOMPSAT-2 LAE burn plan, considering predefined constraints and adjustments, taking into account the perturbing forces. Two approaches have been analyzed: the first is a single shot approach, whereas the other is an iteration based optimal solution. Optimal solution has been obtained using the Focusleop, a geostationary satellite LEOP tool.

Rapid and accurate data processing is required in many GPS(Global Positioning System) applications including surveying. While one can use four different kinds of GPS satellite orbits, we evaluated the accuracy and precision of each kind of orbits to find the best candidate for rapid and accurate data processing. The four different kinds of orbits we: broadcast orbits from GPS satellites; and ultra-rapid orbits, rapid orbits, and precise orbits provided by international GPS data analysis centers such as IGS. With GIPSY and ultra-rapid orbits, we could get the positioning accuracy of 1.5cm from seven days of GPS data. From this study, we conclude that rapid and accurate data processing is achieved with GIPSY and ultra-rapid orbits.

Many railway-advanced countries are using the various types of track to reduce the track maintenance and repair cost according to the improvement of velocity. It spends on much maintenance and repair cost for ballast track due to abrasion of ballast, track irregularity and unisotropical ballast-support stiffness. The ballast track on railway bridge is accelerating the deterioration of ballast according to interaction of railway bridge and track. As continuing the deterioration, it is caused dynamic loads. Due to these effects, it increases negative loads of track and bridge. However, when designing the railway bridge, the effect of ballast track was applicate only dead load, so elastic behavior effect of ballast track is not influenced. Therefore, this paper presumes the stiffness of ballast track on railway bridge considering dynamic behavior of railway bridge, it was evaluated that effect on dynamic behaviors of railway bridge according to ballast track stiffness.
