KOMPSAT-2(K-2) 의 MSC 는 CCD pixel 별 band 별 특성, 감도 및 시간에 따른 변화, CCD Geometry 등에 의해 왜곡 현상이 일어나며 위성 발사 전에 실험실에서의 충분한 실험과 Calibration 작업 을 통해 얻어진 값들을 사용하여 Image Restoration, 상대 복사 보정, 절대 복사 보정 등의 작업들을 거쳐서 왜곡 현상을 보정하게 된다. 그 중 복사 보정에 해당하는 NUC(NonUniformity Correction)은 MSC 각각의 픽셀들이 상이한 특성을 나타내는 것을 균일한 이미지로 보정하는 작업으로 무엇보다 우선시 되는 검보정 작업이다. K-2 NUC table 생성에는 시스템 특성상 몇 가지 사항을 고려 하여 위성에 upload 하는 high frequency NUC(HF NUC)과 지상국에서 처리할 수 있는 low frequency NUC(LF NUC)으로 구분하여 알고리즘을 생성하였다.

Photogrammetry, as its name implies, is a 3-dimensional coordinate measuring technique that uses photographs as the fundamental medium for metrology. In the last few years the accuracy of photogrammetry has increased dramatically thanks to the rapid advance of digital camera manufacturing technique. This paper discusses photogrammetric measurement of the interface surface of MSC(Multi-Spectral Camera), which is a main payload of KOMPSAT-2. Total 24 paper targets on the objective surfaces and two scale bars calibrated with high accuracy were used for measurement, and multiple images were taken from 11 different camera angles by using a spacecraft rotation dolly. As a result of analysis, 3D coordinates of each targeted point were obtained and the flatness value based on the selected reference plane was calculated and compared with the pre-determined requirement. The technique acquired by this study is expected to be used for the 3D precise measurement of ultra-light weight and inflatable space structures such as a satellite antenna and a solar array.

KOMPSAT-2 will carry MSC(Multi-Spectral Camera) which provides 1m resolution panchromatic and 4m resolution multi-spectral images at the altitude of 685km sun-synchronous mission orbit. The mission operation of KOMSPAT-2 is to provide the earth observation using MSC with nadir pointing. KOMPSAT-2 will also have the capability of roll/pitch tilt maneuver using reaction wheel of satellite as required. In order to protect MSC from thermal distortion as well as direct sunlight, MSC shall be operated within the constraint of sun incidence angle. It is expected that the sunlight will not violate the constraint of sun incidence angle for normal mission operations without roll/pitch maneuver. However, during roll/pitch tilt operations, optical module of MSC may be damaged by the sunlight. This study analyzed sun incidence angle of payload using KOMPSAT-2 AOCS (Attitude and Orbit Control Subsystem) Design and Performance Analysis Soft ware for KOMPSAT-2 normal mission operations.

The Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-2 (KOMPSAT-2) was launched in July 2006 and The main mission of the KOMPSAT-2 is a high resolution imaging for the cartography of Korea peninsula by utilizing Multi Spectral Camera (MSC) images. The camera resolutions are 1 m in panchromatic scene and 4 m in multi-spectral imaging. KOMPSAT-2 measure the position, velocity and attitude data of satellite using by star sensor, gyro sensor, and GPS sensor. This paper provides an initial geometric accuracy assessment of the KOMPSAT-2 high resolution image, both geometric Cal/Val overview.

The shock separation test simulates the environmental effects of the spacecraft separation from launch vehicle. The shock separation test for a structural model of KOMPSAT-Ⅱ(Korea Multi-Purpose SATellite Ⅱ) was performed in SITC(Satellite Integration ＆ Test Center) launch environmental test hall at KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) to verify the shock test requirement of the spacecraft, to predict the induced acceleration responses on the primary structures and payloads by the explosion of pyre-lock and to perform mechanical fit check. The spacecraft with S/A was mated vertically to LV(Launch Vehicle) adapter simulator via a clamp band, then hoisted and suspended above a foam test bed by four isolation springs secured to the spacecraft hoist fittings to isolate the payload platform shock wave from the sling elements. For separation process, real pyre-devices were used and the time response signals from 60 accelerometers installed on the interested points was acquired and recorded. The SRS responses for each response channels were calculated and the achieved SRS's on the separation plane was reviewed and evaluated in comparison to the ICD(Interface Control Document) value.

This paper describes the development of an automated operational orbit processing system (KGS automated Operational Orbit Processing System, KOOPS), which can determine, evaluate, update, and generate the orbit data automatically. Developed system can be applied to the multi satellite mission operations as a generic satellite orbit processing system in that the KOOPS has a capability to process various kinds of tracking data and assign pre and post processes according to the satellite system respectively. Results of applying the KOOPS to the KOMPSAT-1 and KOMPSAT-2 mission operations show that man power is greatly reduced and the efficiency and stability of the mission operations are significantly increased. The experiences to develop the KOOPS and operate multi satellite missions using this system can be applied to enhance the multi and generic flight dynamics system further.

The burial culture has prevailed in our county because of the effect of Confucianism. First of all, tombs've had an negative effect on the vista of national land and caused an ineffective use of national land recently. for this reason, the systematic management of the toms is necessary The purpose of this project is to identify tombs' geographical coordinates from orthoimage and to analysis algorithms for extracting tombs on the satellite image. We've used IKONOS image for those purpose, because it's very similar to KOMPSAT-2 image's characteristics which will be launched near future. and, It will make the best use of tombs management of each local government.

In this paper, the definition and the requirement from Users of standardization of high resolution satellite image data will be presented. If Users do not use the satellite image data, the satellite will be useless thing though it has been developed and operated now. The standardization of the satellite image data will make Users use the image data with no problem, so KARI has to do the standardization of it as a space agency that has developed and operated the satellite. For the standardization of it, the technical requirement to develop the satellite, the international standardization for the satellite image data and the requirement from Users will be reflected into the satellite development, and then the format and content of the satellite image data to Users have to be accommodated with the standard format of it. In addition to it, the calibration and validation just make sure of the quality of the satellite image data. For this, KARI has just been doing the standardization of KOMPSAT series in stages.

인류가 달에 착륙한 이후 우주개발은 인류에 있어서의 위대한 전진이며 역사적 의의를 지니고 있다. 세계 각국에 우주가 인류의 마지막 보고라는 인식이 커지면서, 최근 우주개발을 둘러싼 세계의 경쟁은 대단히 치열하다. 각종 첨단기술의 결집과 복합응용이 필수인 우주산업을 국내기술로 이루기 위한 노력이 선진국에 비해 결코 적지 않으며 그 뜨거운 열정 또한 우주산업의 미래를 밝게 해 주리라고 믿는다. 항공우주연구소는 우리 나라의 항공.우주과학기술의 개발과 실용화를 위한 중심체 역할을 담당하고 있는 국책연구기관으로서 1989년 10월에 설립되었다. 설립이래, 수많은 업적을 이룩한 바 있으며, 특히 무궁화위성 버스 기술지원사업과 우리별 2호의 우주환경시험 등으로 국내에서는 거의 불모지나 다름없던 위성관련 분야에서 꾸준한 기술축적을 이루어 현재는 위공위성 본체설계 능력을 갖추었으며, 소형위성의 우주환경시험 시설 및 관련기술을 보유하고 있다. 또한 '94년 11월부터 시작되어 현재 추진중인 다목적 실용위성사업은 우리나라 우주기술개발의 새로운 비젼을 제시하는 대형국책사업으로 산.학.연.관의 협력으로 추진되고 있다. 이러한 중요한 시점에 항공우주연구소를 이끌어 나갈 제 4대 소장으로 취임한 장근호 소장으로부터 항공우주산업의 발전을 위한 항우연의 마스터 플랜과 추진현황, 전망 등에 대하여 들어보았다. 열정적으로 대담하시는 모습에서 우주를 향한 우리의 푸른 꿈이 큰 결실을 맺을 것이라는 확신을 가졌다.
