저궤도 위성은 지상과의 접축시간이 극히 제한되어 있어 위성에서 생성된 원격측정 데이터들을 위성의 대용량 메모리에 저장하였다가 지상과의 접촉시간에 저장된 데이터를 지상으로 전송하는 방식으로 운영된다. 위성에 저장할 수 있는 전체 데이터 크기는 대용량 메모리의 크기와 지상과의 통신 가용시간에 따라 제한을 받게 된다. 대용량 메모리 저장용량과 다운링크 버짓을 만족해야 하므로 일반적으로 각 탑재체로부터 수신하여 위성에 저장되는 원격측정 데이터들은 종류별로 일정한 주기를 가지게 되고 그 크기도 고정되어 있다. 그리고 각 데이터 종류별로 저장여부를 지상명령으로 조절할 수 있도록 되어 있다. 그러나 생성되는 데이터가 일정하지 않고 비주기성을 갖는 경우 데이터량을 예측할 수 없으므로 지상명령으로 데이터 저장여부를 제어하는 것은 거의 불가능하다. 이러한 경우에 생성되는 데이터량을 모니터링하면서 데이터를 전송할 수 있는 자동화된 데이터 통신 방식이 요구된다. 본 논문은 저궤도 위성 탑재체에서 비주기적으로 생성되는 데이터를 자동으로 전송받기 위한 데이터 자동 전송기능과 시험 결과에 대해서 기술하였다.

웹 서비스를 대상으로 하는 DDoS(Distributed Denial-of-Service) 공격 또는 유해 트래픽 유입을 탐지 또는 차단하기 위한 목적으로 HTTP(Hypertext Transfer Protocol) 트래픽을 실시간으로 분석하는 기능은 거의 모든 네트워크 트래픽 보안 솔루션들이 탑재하고 있는 필수적인 요소이다. 하지만, HTTP 트래픽의 실시간 데이터 측정 양이 시간이 지날수록 기하급수적으로 증가함에 따라, HTTP 트래픽을 실시간 패킷 단위로 분석한다는 것에 대한 성능 부담감은 날로 커지고 있는 실정이다. 이제는 응용 어플리케이션 차원에서는 성능에 대한 부담감을 해소할 수 없기 때문에 고비용의 소프트웨어 가속기나 하드웨어에 의존적인 전용 장비를 탑재하여 해결하려는 시도가 대부분이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 대부분의 PC 에 탑재되어 있는 그래픽 카드의 GPU(Graphics Processing Units)를 범용적으로 활용하고자 하는 GPGPU(General-Purpose computation on Graphics Processing Units)의 연구에 힘입어, NVIDIA사의 CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture)를 사용하여 네트워크 트래픽에서 HTTP 패킷 추출성능을 응용 어플리케이션 차원에서 향상시켜 보고자 하였다. HTTP 패킷 추출 연산만을 기준으로 GPU 의 연산속도는 CPU 에 비해 10 배 이상의 높은 성능을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper reports a means of improving the abnormal noise of light tactical vehicles (LTVs) by applying a vehicle fitting type generator (hereinafter called generator). LTVs are classified as having generators, and there are no differences in the noise level. On the other hand, quality improvement was performed in response to unpleasant noise felt by the user (hereinafter called abnormal noise) during vehicle operation. To improve the quality, the generator mounting structure and the phenomenon of the vehicle in the problem were identified. Through this, it was confirmed that the noise caused by the generator installation was the rattle noise. Rattle noise at the engine driving system is normally caused by the transfer of irregular torque generated by the engine power stroke and the backlash by the spline-serration fitting structure between the engine coupler and rotor assembly in a generator. Therefore, this study established an improvement plan to apply a damper coupler to solve the cause of the abnormal noise. Regarding the improved establishment method, the improvement effect was confirmed from the influence of the irregular torque of the engine, noise level, dynamic characteristics analysis, and the endurance test of the parts.

In Korea, much research and development have occurred to enhance the technological competitiveness of tuna purse seining fisheries. Due to these efforts, fishing efficiency has been improved with the development of radar, sonar and global positioning systems for fish detection and revisions to the hull forms of tuna purse seiners. However, for skiff boats, net boats and speed boats, which are auxiliary working boats mounted on tuna purse seiners, technology has lagged behind relative to the modernization of the main vessel. In this study, the hull of an existing propeller-based net boat with steel wire net to protect tuna was changed to the hull of a water jet propulsion vehicle to reduce resistance and improve maneuverability. As a result, a prototype of a water jet propulsion option was produced according to the aluminum structure strength standards specified by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, and safety was confirmed by performing a drop test. Moreover, through a sea trial test, an existing net boat was shown to have a speed of 12.0knots and a towing force of 2,545 kgf at 2,500 RPM. The prototype had a speed of 26.7 knots and a towing force of 2,011 kgf at 3,200 RPM, which satisfied the towing capacity standards of auxiliary working boats mounted on tuna purse seiners.

COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) is a geostationary satellite and developed by KARl for communication, ocean and meteorological observations. It will be tested under vacuum and very low temperature conditions in order to verify thermal design of COMS. The test will be performed by using KARI large thermal vacuum chamber, which was developed by KARI, and the COMS will be the first flight satellite tested in this chamber. The purposes of thermal balance test are to correlate analytical model used for design evaluation and predicting temperatures, and to verify and adjust thermal control concept. KARI has plan to use heating plates to simulate space hot condition especially for radiator panels of satellite such as north and south panels. They will be controlled from 90 K to 273 K by circulating GN2 and LN2 alternatively according to the test phases, while the main shroud of the vacuum chamber will be under constant temperature, 90 K, during all thermal balance test. This paper presents thermal modelling including test chamber, heating plates and the satellite without solar array wing and Ka-band reflectors and discusses temperature prediction during thermal balance test.

The first geostationary satellite made by Korea, COMS, has the three different payload ; Meteorological sensor, Oceanographic sensor and Ka-band communication payload. There are Meteorological & Ocean Data Communication Subsystem(MODCS) and Telemetry, Command and Ranging Subsystem(TC&R) as other RF radiation sources. MODCS transmits and receives Meteo and Ocean measurement data from/to earth using L-band and TC&R using S-band. The Ka-band communication payload will provide high-speed multimedia services and communication services for natural disaster such as prediction, prevention, and recovery services in the government communications network.Ka-band beacon is for the earth antenna pointing and the experiment of rain fading. This paper gives the analysis results about the mutual radiation effect on Ka-band communication payload, Ka-band beacon, MODCS and TC&R. Up/Down link power and coupling factor including the geometrical position and distance of antenna, filter rejection and degradation factor due to the different polarization are considered. The results show MODCS and TC&R are compatible for Ka-band communication payload and Ka-band beacon does not interfere with MODCS and TC&R normal operation.

COMS satellite is a multipurpose satellite in the geostationary orbit, which accommodates multiple payloads of the Ka band Satellite Communication Payload, Meteorological Imager, and Geostationary Ocean Color Imager into a single spacecraft platform. In this paper, Korea's first innovative geostationary Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) program is introduced which is fully funded by Korean Government. The satellite platform is based on the Astrium EUROSTAR 3000 communication satellite, but creatively combined with MARS Express satellite platform to accommodate three different payloads efficiently for COMS. The goals of the Ka band satellite communication mission are to in-orbit verify the performances of advanced communication technologies and to experiment wide-band multi-media communication service. The Meteorological Imager mission is to continuously extract meteorological products with high resolution and multi-spectral imager, to detect special weather such as storm, flood, yellow sand, and to extract data on long-term change of sea surface temperature and cloud. The Geostationary Ocean Color Imager mission aims at monitoring of marine environments around Korean peninsula, production of fishery information (Chlorophyll, etc.), and monitoring of long-term/short-term change of marine ecosystem. The system design difficulties are in the different kinds of payload mission requirements of communication and remote sensing purposes and how to combine them into one to meet the overall satellite requirements. In this paper, Ka band communication payload system is more highlighted.

한국천문연구원은 과학기술위성 3호의 주탑재체인 다목적 적외선영상시스템(Multipurpose Infra-Red Imaging System, MIRIS)을 개발하고 있다. 이 연구개발 사업은 2007년 교육과학기술부의 과학위성 3호 사업 주탑재체 공모를 통하여 10여개의 후보 탑재체 제안서 중에서 최종적으로 채택되었고, 2011년 발사를 목표로, 3년 동안의 연구개발 기간을 거쳐 현재 비행모델 (FM, Flight Model) 개발이 진행 중이다. MIRIS는 한국천문연구원이 개발하여 2003년 발사에 성공한 과학위성 1호 주탑재체인 원자외선 영상분광기 (FIMS, Far ultra-violet IMaging Spectroscope)에 이어 국내에서 자체 개발되는 두 번째 우주망원경이다. MIRIS는 우주공간에서 0.9~2 micron 사이 적외선 영역의 파쉔 알파 방출선 (Paschen Alpha Emiision Line)과 광대역 I, H 파장영역을 관측할 예정이다. 주요 과학임무로는 아직까지 국제 천문학계에서 잘 알려지지 않은 우리은하 내부에 분포한 고온 플라즈마 (Warm Ionized Medium, WIM)의 기원 연구와 아울러 우리은하 성간난류(Interstellar Turbulence)의 특성 및 적외선 우주배경복사의 (Cosmic Infrared Background; CIB) 거대구조 등을 관측연구할 예정이다. 특히 MIRIS는 저온상태 (절대온도 77K, 약 $-200^{\circ}C$)에서 우주공간 관측을 수행할 예정이므로, 국내에서는 연구기반이 취약한 극저온 광학계 및 기계부 설계기술, 극저온 냉각기술 및 열해석 설계기술과 적외선 센서기술 및 자료처리 기술 등 관련기술을 개발하고 있으며 이러한 기반기술을 바탕으로, 아직까지 국내에서 시도된 바 없는 적외선우주망원경 개발을 통하여, 우리나라의 관련 우주기술 분야의 기초원천 기술로서 크게 활용될 것으로 기대하고 있다.
