우주발사체와 발사지원설비를 연결하여 추진제 공급과 전기신호 송수신 등을 가능하게 하는 메커니즘을 엄브리칼 장치라고 한다. 국내 우주발사체의 경우 액체산소와 케로신을 추진제로 사용하며, 질소, 공기 및 헬륨 등의 가스를 밸브구동, 공간 퍼지, 추진제 가압에 이용한다. 본 논문에서는 우주센터의 발사대설비에 적용된 엄브리칼 장치 중 추진제 및 고압가스 공급을 위한 자동체결장치(auto coupling device)의 구성, 기능 및 발사 준비를 위한 프로세스에 대해 기술하고 있다. 자동체결장치는 발사체 하부 두 곳에 연결되며, 산화제 공급측의 체결장치(coupling device 1)와 연료 공급측의 체결장치(CD 2)로 구성된다. 이 장치는 발사체와의 접촉면에서 기밀을 확보한 상태에서 내부의 탱크, 밸브, 인터스테이지 등에 추진제 및 각종 가스를 공급하는 통로역할을 하며, 발사준비가 완료된 후에는 발사체 이륙 전 또는 이륙과 동시에 발사체로부터 자동으로 분리된다. 각각의 체결장치 구성품으로는 발사체 이륙시 발생하는 고온의 화염으로부터 장치를 보호하는 PD(protective device), 접촉면에 기밀을 제공하고 추진제 누출을 방지는 MCP(multi-channel plate), 접촉면을 보호하기 위한 덮게, 각종 연결 배관의 전진과 후진을 위한 캐리지, 발사체와의 체결을 지지하는 그립 등이 있다. 발사 준비를 위해서 사전에 장치의 독립운용시험을 통해 각 구성품의 상태와 기능을 점검하고 장치의 작동성을 검증한다. 이후 발사체를 모사하는 기체 및 관제설비와 종합적으로 연계 시험과 모사시험을 수행하여 최종적으로 발사준비상태를 확인하게 된다. 이러한 자동체결장치의 운용 경험은 한국형발사체의 지상지원설비 개발에 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper we proposed a dual-frequency circular sector microstrip antenna with orthogonal polarized modes and high isolation between the two feeding ports. And then we designed a transceiver operating at 5.6 GHz for transmitting and at 5.5 GHz for receiving. The good isolation provided by the proposed antenna is used as the basis for the transmit-receive filtering of transceiver. The operating frequencies and polarization characteristics of the proposed antenna is calculated by using a cavity model. The 5-parameters and radiation patterns of the antenna are measured. A power amplifier and a low noise amplifier are designed and integrated with antenna to make a transceiver, which has about 13dB transmitting gain and about 8㏈ receiving gain.

This study presents an imaging algorithm that can provide an image of a moving target in a multiple-input-multiple-output radar environment where multiple transmitting and receiving radars are fixed on the ground. The proposed algorithm, which is based on polar format processing using plane wave approximation, is shown to provide an unaliased image by using multiple transmitting radars even when the distances between the receiving radars are relatively large. We derive the conditions necessary to deploy the transmitting radars by which the resolution of the reconstructed image can be improved, while simultaneously reducing aliasing artifacts. Moreover, we offer a means of separating out each transmitting radar target echo. Finally, the performance of the proposed system is verified through a simulation.

The study on interference channel is very important information theoretically and many studies have been done on it. However, even in the simplest case, even in the case of two user interfering channels, the channel capacity is not yet known except in special cases. Recently, research on the multiplexing gain that shows the tendency of the transmission rate in the high signal to noise ratio (SNR) band has been actively carried out, instead of accurately grasping the channel capacity. Obtaining optimal multiplexing gain can reveal trends in channel capacity at high signal-to-noise ratio bands. In an interfering channel with two users, the best multiplexing gain can be obtained by eliminating the interference. However, recent research shows that when the number of users is more than three, the optimal multiplexing gain can not be obtained only by zero forcing and a new technique called interference sorting is needed. There are two types of interference sorting techniques. Beamforming A method of effectively separating signals and interference by properly selecting matrices and constructing structured codes using rational numbers and irrational numbers. The interference alignment technique can achieve optimal multiplexing gain in various environments such as interference channel, X channel, compound broadcast channel, and multi hop network for multi source multi destination. In recent years, it has also been applied to distributed storage.

In this paper, the DoF of delayed channel information is obtained.

In this paper, for both transmission and reception with single antenna system of satellite communication, dual-frequency antennas which operate simultaneously at 12.5 GHz and at 14.25 GHz are designed, constructed and measured. Also by using dual feeding structure, the problems of single-fed dual-frequency antenna such as the separation of transmitting and receiving signals and single polarization, are solved. Microstrip patch as a radiation element of dual-fed dual-frequency antenna has width and length which are the resonance lengths of the corresponding frequencies for transmission and reception, respectively. The effects of the feed line on the other frequency feeding are minimized with the optimal matching scheme for the feed lines. For solving the space problems of dual-fed two-dimensional array antennas, microstrip-line and coaxial probe feedings are used for each frequency and a two-dimensional $2\times2$ array antenna was designed and measured their characteristics. The experimental results show that errors of resonance frequencies are less than 1.44%, the return losses are less than -21 dB and the isolations between two feeding ports are less than -21 dB. The characteristics of radiation patterns of dual frequency microstrip antenna are measured and evaluated. The directivities, sidelobe levels and cross polarizations are also measured and compared with the simulations. The results show some errors due to the misalignment of coaxial probe feeding.

This study's aim is for reducing big data transfer time of IoT healthcare devices by modulating digital bits into Manchester code including zero-voltage idle as information for secondary compressed binary cluster's compartment after two step compression of compressing binary data into primary and secondary binary compressed clusters for each binary clusters having compression benefit of 1 bit or 2 bits. Also this study proposed that as department information of compressed binary clusters, inserting idle signal into Manchester code will have benefit of reducing transfer time in case of compressing binary cluster into secondary compressed binary cluster by 2 bits, because in spite of cost of 1 clock idle, another 1 bit benefit can play a role of reducing 1 clock transfer time. Idle signal is also never consecutive because the signal is for compartment information between two adjacent secondary compressed binary cluster. Voltage transition on basic rule of Manchester code is remaining while inserting idle signal, so DC balance can be guaranteed. This study's simulation result said that even compressed binary data by another compression algorithms could be transferred faster by as much as about 12.6 percents if using this method.

In this paper, we introduce the contactless power transmission device for transmitting the power with the resonant characteristic of the cavity resonator. When transmitting the power, the contactless power transmission device begins to work in the condition where the transceiver adheres closely. The transceiver is electrically separated because there is no conductive terminal outside and the size of the receiver required for the electric power transmission can be minimized. The cavity resonator comprises slots for the input port and output port in the upper side conductor plate of the cavity and forms the input port and output port using the stripline structure at this upper part. The some of output port is separated from it and the electric power receiver is formed thus the union can be possible. The rest except electric power receiver become the electric power transmitter, which includes the input port of stripline-slot coupling, cavity, and the slot of the output port. If the transmitter and the receiver are combined, they become the form in which the electricity is transferred from the input port to the output port in a cavity resonator. The center frequency of the contactless power transmitter manufactured is 5.782 GHz. and $S_{21}$ is measured as -1.07 dB. It is confirmed that the high electric power transfer rate is approximately 78 %.

To overcome the difficulties of discharge measurements during flood season, MWSCM(micowave water surface current meter) which measures river surface velocities without contacting water has been applied in field work since its development. The existing version of MWSCM is for floods so that its applicability is low due to the short periods of floods. Therefore the renovative redesign of MWSCM to increase the applicability was conducted so that it can be applied to the discharge measurements during normal flows as well as flood ones by extending the measurable range of velocity. A newly developed high-performance MWSCM for general use can measure the velocity range of 0.03-20.0 m/s from flood flows to normal flows, whereas MWSCM for floods can measure the velocity range of 0.5-10.0 m/s. The improvement of antenna isolation between transmitter and receiver to block the inflow of transmitted singals to receiver and the improvement of phase noise of oscillator are necessary for detecting low velocity with MWSCM technology. Separate type antenna of transmitting and receiving signals is developed for isolation enhancement and phase locked loop synthesizer as an oscillator is applied to high-performance MWSCM for general use. Microwave frequency of 24 GHz is applied to the new MWSCM rather than 10 GHz to make the new MWSCM small and light for convenient use of it at fields. Improvement requests on MWSCM for floods-stable velocity measurement, self test, low power consumtion, and waterproof and dampproof-from the users of it has been reflected on the development of the new version of MWSCM.

In shipyard site, a ship is constructed by integrating lots of modules that are made in several sites with different capabilities and specifications. Recently, it needs to make a shipyard to be smart with wired and wireless broadband networks between hierarchical shipyards. In this paper, we propose an installation of LTE femtocell local gateway at a remote shipyard, an information exchange method between hierarchical shipyards, and an offload method to separate the general traffic. We define the mode change in a femtocell gateway for supporting the offload of the general traffic between the headquarter and a remote shipyard, the offload data management and trigger message, and cache entry fields. To show the operation of our proposed off-loading function, we consider the transcipient message flow at the femtocell gateway with its state transition diagram. Hence, it is expected to increase the productivity of shipyard industry with mobile communications and broadband Internet technologies.
