Space launch vehicle development needs many kinds of technologies synthetically. Nowadays, KARI (Korea Aerospace Research Institute) has developed a space launch vehicle, KSLV-I (Korea Space Launch Vehicle-I), that is able to load with an 100kg payload. After that it plans to develop Korean Space Launch Vehicle. As space launch vehicle becomes more complicate and larger, it needs a scientific and analytic development cost estimation. In this paper a cost estimation for KSLV-II using TRANSCOST 7.1 was studied.

Launch control system controls the sequence for launching missile in weapon systems. This system have to generate the engagement plan, input information and launch the missile in timeliness requirement. Such a system may fail to operate correctly either due to errors in hardware and software or due to violation of timing constraints. We presented fault-tolerant ethernet for embedded real-time system like launch control system. This approach is designed to handle network faults using dual commercial-off-the-shelf(COTS) network devices. To support fault-tolerant ethernet each node is composed dual channel ethernet and designed the communication middleware for network fault detect and recovery. Especially for time-critical system, the middleware is being developed to achieve that no point of network failure shall take down or cause loss of communication to network nodes.

The on-board telemetry system of KSLV-1 transmits telemetry signal for the launch vehicle and satellite to ground telemetry system in real time. In ground telemetry system, antenna system acquires telemetry signals and transfers these to data processing system. Data processing system processes and recordes telemetry data and distributes it to each mission operator in order to monitor it the operation goes well or not. This document describes the configurations and functions of data processing system designed for efficient and appropriate processing of telemetry data.

This paper describes the development results of electrohydraulic actuation system which performs the attitude and trajectory control of pitch and yaw motion using thrust vector control for high altitude launching vehicle operated in high vacuum environment (altitude higher than 300 km). As compared with electrohydraulic actuation system for low altitude launch vehicle which operated under altitude of stratosphere, the intensified development requirements, newly adopted design and manufacturing technologies, newly developed test equipments and test results are summarized in this paper. The development test and evaluation of actuation system were successfully accomplished. The developed actuation system will be installed on KSLV-I after finishing verification of interface and integration compatibility with related other systems.

A method for thruster fault diagnosis for launch vehicle upper stage was developed. In order to protect the launch vehicle against the occurrence of faults, it is necessary to detect and identify the fault, as well as to reconfigure the controller of the vehicle. Considering the upper stage launch vehicle using reaction control system, an analytical method was adopted in order to detect the fault occurred in thruster. The fault detection scheme can be applied to the system regardless of the form of thruster fault occurred - leakage or lock-out. Results from processor-in-the-loop simulation are provided to demonstrate the validity of this fault detection and isolation scheme for the upper stage launch vehicle.

In this paper, we described the rapid initial alignment techniques of projectile navigation system for use in inclined launch systems. One-shot alignment technique, one of the rapid initial alignment techniques, is possible to align a navigation system within seconds because it uses external information from an launcher navigation system. However, since it has only been used in vertical launch systems, its performance in inclined launch systems has not been verified. Therefore, this paper analyzed the error elements that occur when the one-shot alignment technique is applied to the inclined launch system, and introduced a method to improve the alignment performance by minimizing those errors. Additionally, By simulating and testing the performance of the proposed alignment technique, it was verified that it is effective even in an environment where a real navigation system is used.

This study presents the numerical investigation of the trajectory of rocket launched from a helicopter. The nonlinear mathematical model of armed configuration of UH-60 helicopter was developed while Hydra 70 unguided rocket was modeled to simulate the rocket behavior. The effects of various inflow models on the launched rocket trajectory are obtained. Similarly, rocket launch simulation was performed to determine the unsafe flight maneuver condition where the rocket trajectory is critically close to the helicopter main rotor tip path plane.

우리 나라는 일본상공의 비행을 피하기 위하여 제주도와 남해안 근해로 발사장 선정이 국한되는 지정학적인 위치로 볼 때 발사장 선택에 제한이 없는 공중발사에 대한 가능성 연구가 필요한 시점에 있다. 본 연구는 우리 나라와 같은 분단 된 특수상황 그리고 지정학적 위치에서의 발사장을 고려한 우주 발사체 개발의 필요성에 따라 F-4에 장착 가능한 3단형 공중발사 로켓을 설계하고 1/3의 축소 모형을 제작하였다. 2kg의 payload를 갖는 발사체의 1단은 LRM ( Lox/kerosene )을 사용하였고 2, 3단은 SRM ( HTPB/AP/Al )을 사용하였으며 발사고도는 11-l2km 상공에서 F-4에 의해서 발사되고 31km지점에서 1단 분리가 이루어지며 62km지점에서 2단 분리와 nose fairing을 분리하게 된다. 전장은 6.85m 이며 전체 무게는 560.6kg 이고 전체 발사체 시스템의 CAD 도면은 아래 그림 1과 같이 주어져 있다. 그림 2에서는 F-4E phantom의 장착성을 검토해 본 결과 장착이 가능함을 알 수 있었으며 추진제 양의 감소로 크기를 대폭 줄일 수 있었다.
