최근 우주산업의 급속한 발달로 다양한 목적의 인공위성들이 개발되고 있다. 이러한 인공위성들은 그 사용 목적에 따라 다르지만 매우 많은 양의 데이터들을 다루게 된다. 이러한 데이터에는 각각의 주어진 임무에 사용되는 정보들이 대부분을 차지하지만 위성자체의 상태 데이터도 릴 정시간마다 화인을 해주어야 한다. 위성의 상태 데이터는 위성 각 부분의 이상유무나 위치, 시간 등 위성이 정상적으로 그 역할을 수행하고 올바른 궤도를 유지하는데 필요한 정보들이다 위성탑재 소프트웨어는 하드웨어 데이터나 위성의 상태 데이터를 심해진 시간간격마다 일어 메모리에 저장해 두는 일을 한다. 다목적실용위성 2호에서 이러한 데이터 획득을 자동적으로 수행하기 위해 매 시간간격마다 요구되는 데이터를 테이블 형식으로 헤더파일에 생성하는 프로그램을 구현하였다. 이 구현된 프로그램을 이용하여 다목적실용위성 2호의 탑재소프트웨어가 개발되고 있다.

To increase the utilization of the KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite(KOMPSAT) series imagery being developed pursuant to the national space development program, high quality images with enhanced locational accuracy should be created through standardized post-processing processes. In the present study, using the Value-Added Processing System(VAPS) constructed for the post-processing of KOMPSAT imagery, location correction experiments were conducted using KOMPSAT-2 and -3 imagery from domestic and overseas regions. First, 50 pieces from each of KOMPSAT-2 imagery were selected from South Korean and North Korean regions, and modeling was conducted using GCP Chips. According to the results, the Root Mean Square Errors(RMSE) for South Korea and North Korea were 1.59 pixels and 2.04 pixels, respectively, and the locational accuracy of ortho mosaic imagery using check points were 1.33m(RMSE) and 1.90m(RMSE), respectively. Meanwhile, in the case of overseas regions for which GCP could not be easily obtained, the improvement of locational accuracy could be identified through image corrections using Open Street Map(OSM). The VAPS and reference materials used in the present study are expected to be very useful in constructing a precise image DB for entire global regions.

This paper describes playback downlink and telecommand uplink channel design performed for a transportable small-sized KOMPSAT(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) ground station. As a result of downlink channel design, required receiving performance was calculated from the threshold signal-to-noise ratio of playback signal and it was revealed that this performance can be guaranteed in 1.5 m ground station with 6.5 dB/K of G/T. For the uplink channel design, 40 dBW of EIRP was derived from the threshold signal-to-noise ratio of telecommand signal received at on-board receiver. The implemented small-sized ground station based on design was evaluated to be fully acceptable for KOMPSAT TT&C(Telemetry, Tracking and Command) system and playback downlink design without taking account of additional 3 dB system link margin was shown to be effective because it had provided constantly initial channel performance without any remarkable degradation over several years of tests with KOMPSAT and KOMPSAT-2, for both uplink and playback downlink in the elevation angle above $10^{\circ}$.

High intensity vibro-acoustic testing is the appropriate method for flight qualification testing of space flight vehicle which must ensure the acoustic environment of launch. To qualify vibro-acoustic environment during its flight, High Intensity Acoustic Test was performed for KOMPSAT-2(Korea Multi-Purpose SATellite) STM(Structural Thermal Model). This paper presents the detailed description on the high intensity acoustic test for KOMPSAT-2. Additionally the test results was compared with the analysis ones, which were estimated with 3-D SEA(Statistical Energy Analysis) model.

With the constantly increasing demand of domestic and oversea satellite images, there is also a growing demand to rapidly acquire images after the satellite image collection planning of KOMPSAT-2/3/5. Therefore, it has been increasing to use the korea ground station and oversea ground station to keep pace with increased demand. The KARI is operating Data Ingestion System of the KOMPSAT-2/3 in Svalbard, where the satellite images have been received at least four or six times a day. The KARI is planning to operate oversea receiving system for KOMPSAT-5/3A. This paper introduces the polar data ingestion system operating in Norway, and presents the process of design and development for Polar Integration receiving system in preparation of multiple satellite operation.

The existing field survey and aerial photography involve the waste of manpower and economic loss in the coastline survey. To minimize these disadvantages, the digitization for efficient coastline extraction was conducted in this study using the points extracted from the standard coastline of the approximate highest high water and the diverse satellite images (KOMPSAT-3, SPOT-5, Landsat-8 and Quickbird-2), and the comparative accuracy analysis was conducted. The differences between the standard coastline points of the approximate highest high water and the coastline of each satellite were smallest for KOMPSAT-3, followed by Quickbird-2, SPOT-5 and Landsat-8. The significant probability from between the multipurpose applications satellite and Quickbird-2 (significant probability two-tailed) was statistically significant at 1% significance level. Therefore, high-resolution satellite images are required to efficiently extract the coastline, and KOMPSAT-3, from which images are easily acquired at a low cost, will enable the most efficient coastline extraction without external support.

This paper describes the orbit accuracy of KOMPSAT-5, which has been in normal operations since the launch on Aug. 22, 2013. The analysis on the various GPS related data and the different methodologies for orbit estimation are carried out and compared with each other. The accuracy of precise orbit is confirmed to be 12.8cm($1{\sigma}$) on average using data from the in-flight dual frequency GPS receiver, GPS precise ephemeris, and IGS stations. In addition, the orbit estimation using single frequency GPS receiver provides the orbit solution around 2m level. And, the accuracy of orbit processing is 5m using on-board navigation solution, which has about 10m accuracy.

By utilizing OSMI (Ocean Scanning Multi-spectral Imager) onboard KOMPSAT-1, the moon can be imaged. Because the moon has no atmosphere and reflects sun lights at a constant rate, it can be the radiance source for calibration of OSMI. But there are a lot of risks which made KOMPSAT-1 enter into safe-hold mode. So planning the imaging of the moon with OSMI should be determined seriously with consideration to information on KOMPSAT-1 operation, the moon, the sun, etc. But it takes a long time for determining the imaging time of the moon using MCE(Mission Control Element) simulator and there are operational problems to be solved. In this paper, fast simulator for determining imaging time for the moon with OSMI has been developed. The proper timeline for imaging the moon and the position of the moon image in OSMI image coordinates and the phase of the moon are determined. STK was used for acquiring information on KOMPSAT-1, the moon, the sun and the characteristitcs of OSMI are considered. As a result, we can determine imaging time of the moon with OSMI much faster and efficiently.
