On-Board computers (OBC) for LEO & GEO satellites have been developed with their own dedicated architecture so far even though they have many similar functionalities. In this paper, we present a conceptual study results of standard OBC architecture design and propose the domestic development plan for the next generation satellite OBC. Proposed architecture is highly flexible and can be used at LEO/MEO/GEO and Moon Explorer/Deep Space Probe. Also, we introduce current status of standard OBC which is under development.

One of major services for the next generation mobile satellite system will be multimedia broadcasting and multi-casting service(MBMS). An integrated satellite and terrestrial network can be considered to provide those services seamlessly and cooperatively. This paper presents efficient cooperative transmission architectures for integrated satellite and terrestrial network. First, an integrated satellite and terrestrial system architectures is introduced, and several cooperative transmission architectures for the integrated system are derived. Extensive performance simulation results reveal that the proposed architectures can improve the system performance and make an efficient transmission.

This paper we introduce operated public test-bed satellite system configuration for satellite communications and usage for services via COMS(Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite). According to trial public test-bed operation, the broadband multimedia services are expected to be available at the next generation VSAT services due to the increasing of Ka-band utilization. In addition, UHD broadcasting services via satellite is expected to improve the universal accessibility of broadcast services.

Benefits of the next generation geostationary meteorological satellite observation (e.g., GEO-KOMPSAT-2A) are qualitatively and comprehensively described and discussed. Main beneficial phenomena for application can be listed as tropical cyclones (typhoon), high impact weather (heavy rainfall, lightning, and hail), ocean, air pollution (particulate matter), forest fire, fog, aircraft icing, volcanic eruption, and space weather. The next generation satellites with highly enhanced spatial and temporal resolution images, expanding channels, and basic and additional products are expected to create the new valuable benefits, including the contribution to the reduction of socioeconomic losses due to weather-related disasters. In particular, the new satellite observations are readily applicable to early warning and very-short time forecast application of hazardous weather phenomena, global climate change monitoring and adaptation, improvement of numerical weather forecast skill, and technical improvement of space weather monitoring and forecast. Several policy plans for expanding the application of the next generation satellite data are suggested.

This paper we introduce the satellite communication system consist of redundant central station with management module for increase the stability of the satellite link. Configuration of redundant central station in satellite communication system can minimize the service interruption due to unstable link or some module error. According to this, we expect to ensure efficient use of technology for the next-generation VSAT services and broadcasting services.

For constructionof the next generation satellite B-ISDN/ATM networks considering integration with terrestrial information infrastructure networks, various high speed and wideband satellites with be launched and they will make used of frequency reue techniques for efficient management of limited frequency resource. Therefore, CCI(Co-Channel Interference) inherent in frequency reuse will be a dominant factor in performance degradation of satellite networks. This paper alanyzes the ATM cell transmission performance degradation caused by CCI. The satellite link, including up-link and down-link thermal noise, CCI, and nonlinear satellite transponder, is modeled and interleaving technique is used for compensating the ATM cell transmission performance degradation caused by burst error of satellite link. First, each satellite link subsystem is analyzed in detail and then end-to-end ATM cell transmission performance is evaluated with BER and CLR. Specifically, ATMcell transmission performance degradation caused by CCI is evaluated in detail.

COSPAS-SARSAT is the search and rescue system for providing a distress alarm and a position identification using an international satellite and ground facilities. Aviators, mariners and land users worldwide are equipped with COSPAS-SARSAT distress beacons, which could help save their in emergency situations anywhere in the world. As the existing COSPAS-SARSAT system is generally operated by LEO(Low-altitude Earth Orbit) Satellite System, the time from the distress beacon to the rescue is more than 1 hour with average and the accuracy of the distress location is about 5 Km. Therefore, in order to overcome this problem, the development for the next generation SAR(search and rescue) system which uses the MEO(middle-altitude Earth Orbit) satellites is going on the Galileo project. EU is developing this project for the full operation capability in 2011, and this project will have SAR payloads and support to the Search and Rescue service-herein called SAR/Galileo. SAR/Galileo will have the performance of a few meter accuracy, within 10 minutes to rescue from reception of distress messages, and Return Link Service(from the SAR operator to the distress emitting beacon), thereby facilitating more efficient rescue operations and helping to reduce the rate of false alerts. As the disaster is larger every year, the ground station, MEOLUT for next generation ASR/Galileo is urgently needed for the lifesaving for the larger disaster, the research for beacon and the ground station such as MEOLUT for introducing the next generation SAR/Galileo in Korea is very timely and is important. This paper presents the procedures and the strategies for the participation, the area to develop reasonably, and the propulsion organization for developing the SAR/Galileo ground system in Korea.
