천리안 위성 원격측정명령계 RF부는 위성 장착 이후 발사 전까지 여러 단계의 위성체레벨 기능시험을 거치며 요구 성능을 만족하는지를 충분히 확인하였다. 위성 발사후부터 정상궤도 진입 후에 발사전 원격측정명령계 RF가 원하는 요구 기능 및 성능을 만족하고 있는지를 확인하는 궤도운용시험이 수행되었다. 본 논문은 원격측정명령계 RF부의 궤도운용시험 계획에 따라 수행하여 얻어진 시험 결과에 대한 분석에 대한 것이다. 먼저 발사 후 LEOP 동안 원격명령이 정상적으로 수신되고 수행되는지 확인하였다. 그 이후 원격명령이 언락되는 수신 파워 임계(Threshold) 입력 레벨 확인을 확인하였으며 원격측정 다운링크 주파수 변이가 요구범위에 있는지 확인하였으며, 수신신호 스펙트럼 측정을 통해 TM EIRP를 추정한 결과 링크 버짓 마진 대비 추가적인 마진이 있음을 확인하였으며 또한 TM 송신 신호 변조지수가 추정범위 안에 있는지를 확인하였다. 그리고 레인징 시험을 통해 수신기 및 레인징 기능이 정상적으로 동작하고 있음을 확인하였다. 이 궤도운용시험 결과는 후속 정지궤도복합위성 원격측정명령계 RF부 궤도운용시험을 위한 비교 자료로 활용될 것이다.

Launching system is designed to store the payload, withstand the rigors, and prevent it from rusting and damaging. The behavior during initial deployment of the missile is determined by production, assembly and insertion condition of a launching tube and a missile. The purpose of this research is to confirm the safety of a launching tube by statistically analyzing behavior of the missile, during initial deployment stage. Error parameters which effect initial behavior of the missile are selected and analyzed through Monte-Carlo Simulation. Based on the result of simulation, tip-off and stress distribution between rail and shoe is predicted by using the commercial analysis program called Recurdyn. Lastly, the safety factor is calculated based on yield strength of the material and maximum stress of the rail during the process of launching. The safety of the launching system is verified from the result of the safety factors.

The missile early-warning satellite systems have been developed and upgraded by some space-developed nations, under the inevitable trend that the space is more strongly considered as another battle field than before. As the key function of such a satellite-based early warning system, the prediction algorithm of the missile flight trajectory is studied in the paper. In particular, the evolution computation, receiving broad attention in the artificial intelligence area, is applied to the proposed prediction method so that the global optimum-like solution is found avoiding disadvantage of the previous non-linear optimization search tools. Moreover, using the prediction simulator of the launch vehicle flight trajectory which is newly developed in C# and Python, the paper verifies the performance and the feature of the proposed algorithm.

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.

Vehicle Holding Device(VHD) has a role that holding the launch vehicle on its launch pad until the engine therust reaches a steady condition. The analytical study of shape parameters and dynamic characteristics of hydraulic cylinders is carried out. The contraction of cylinder is considered as the major factor of releasing mechanism. Through the analysis, the decreasing of cylinder slit size and increasing initial charging pressure increase the contraction force. Through the transient analysis, cylinder load, displacement and inner pressure distribution are confirmed. The cylinder contraction force is converged to the cylinder external force when the cylinder starts to move. Also, the pressure distribution in the hydraulic cylinder is constant.

우주발사체를 이용하여 인공위성을 궤도에 올리는 문제에서 가장 중요시해야 할 부분은 임무의 성공, 즉 정밀한 궤도 진입이다. 이것이 만족되어졌을 때, 비용의 최소화 또한 설계 시 중요한 고려사항이 된다. 이 두 가지 문제를 동시에 해결하기 위해선 최적 제어 전략이 필요한데, 통상적으로 이 과정은 발사 전에 최적화 기법 등을 이용하여 계산되고 검증된다. 그러나 기존의 최적화 기법은 대부분 선형 시스템에 적합한 기법들 이고, 우주발사체와 같이 매우 복잡하고 강한 비선형을 가진 운동방정식을 최적화 하려면 많은 계산이 소요된다. 계산 소모 시간을 줄이기 위해서는 선형화 등의 기법이 사용되는데, 그러한 경우 최적 해에 대한 신뢰도가 낮아질 수밖에 없다. 이 논문에서는 그러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 최근 활발히 연구되고 있는 비선형 최적화 기법인 상태 의존 Riccati 방정식 기법 (SDRE)을 이용하여 인공위성을 주어진 궤도에 진입시키는 우주발사체의 최적궤도를 계산하였다. 또한 Hamiltonian 을 이용하여 산출된 궤도의 최적성을 보이고, 목표한 궤도와의 비교를 통해 제어기의 정밀성을 확인하였다.

Conceptual design process is defined for the air-launching rocket by including analysis modules like mission analysis, staging, propulsion analysis, configuration, weight analysis, aerodynamics analysis and trajectory analysis. As a result of the conceptual design, the supersonic(M=1.5) air-launching rocket with hybrid engine for first stage propulsion system is designed. For the best system alternative selection, trade study for the 1st stage engine type and launching speeds using sequential optimization and confirming feasibility of baseline air-launching rocket has been performed. As a result of trade study, all alternatives are competitive in total weight and show only small difference in total weight per unit payload weight. Therefore, it is confirmed that the baseline air-launching rocket which has advantage in system safety especially in supersonic launching is feasible.

Satellite structure should be designed to support safely the payload and several actuators under launch and on-orbit environments. After the configuration design of satellite, the structural analysis is performed using quasi-static load provided by launch vehicle manufacturer for detail design of satellite. In order to verify the safety of satellite structure designed using quasi-static loads, launch vehicle manufacturer performs coupled load analysis with satellite and launch vehicle models. For developing satellite, satellite model was reduced into the Craig-Bampton model for coupled load analysis, and delivered to the launch vehicle manufacturer. Launch vehicle manufacturer have done the coupled load analysis, and offered the acceleration and displacement results to the satellite manufacturer. From the analysis results, we have confirmed that satellite is designed safely and there is no possibility of interference and conflict in the inner/outer side of satellite.

This paper proposes a new approach to provide RF communication channel and electric power transmission to overcome the weakness of conventional tests, which may cause several problems. When an RF communication device is used to communicate between launch vehicle and launch complex in stead of using harness umbilical, it may draw the simplicity of ground test equipments, cost-saving, and the reduction of test time. In addition, if an RF power transmission device is adopted to supply on-board power of launch vehicle, it can replace expensive on-board batteries, which may be degraded easily by the repeated charging and discharging processes.
