In this paper, a multipactor test for the space qualification model of the X-band dual-mode high-power channel filter for high-speed data transmission of geostationary satellite observation payloads was conducted and compared with the 8 dB margin required for design. It was confirmed that analytically required margins were met through testing and that satisfactory test results were obtained. The design and test of the multipactor are tested according to the ECSS standard. Based on this, it is suggested that if the margin of design is sufficiently secured, it can be used in the development of the filter for space qualification model without any test.

The Flight Model (FM) of a high-resolution electro-optical camera (EOS-C Ver.3.0), the mission payload of an Earth observation satellite, was successfully developed by Satrec Initiative. We designed it to give improved thermal representatives compared with the Structural-Thermal Model (STM) by optimizing the thermal characteristics based on the STM thermal vacuum test results. We developed the FM and verified the workmanship by performing the acceptance level thermal vacuum test. We also conducted the verification of its Thermal Mathematical Model (TMM) by the thermal balance test. As the result, it was confirmed that TMM faithfully represents the thermal characteristics of the EOS-C Ver.3.0 FM.

홀 추력기는 비교적 간단한 구조와 작은 크기 및 높은 연료효율로 미래 소형위성의 핵심기술로 주목 받고 있다. 이 연구실에서는 2010년 발사예정인 과학기술위성 3호에 탑재할 소형위성용 저 전력 홀 추력기를 연구 개발하였다. 성능에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 자기장 구조는 FEMM전산코드를 이용한 해석을 통해 설계되었으며, 제작된 프로토타입의 실험을 통해 자기장의 세기 및 모양, 양극전압 및 기체유량에 따른 성능 특성을 관찰하였다. 또한 Faraday Probe와 Retarding Potential Analyzer (RPA), 랑뮈어 탐침 등을 이용해 이온빔의 분사각도 및 전류밀도, 이온에너지 분포, 플라즈마 전위 등을 측정하고 관찰된 특성을 물리적으로 분석하였다. 이러한 최적화 과정을 통해 설계된 비행모델의 시험 결과 양극전력 200 W, 제논 연료유량 0.85 mg/s 을 통해 11.2 mN 추력, 1350 s 비추력, 37% 추력효율을 획득하여 개발목표를 상회하는 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다.

This paper presents development activities of the T700/701K turbo-shaft engine for Korean Utility Helicopter(KUH). The T700/701K is the first rear-drive variant of the GE's T700 engine which is proven for military applications in the world. The main workscope of the development includes a modification from a front-drive engine to a rear-drive one, an performance enhancement of the power turbine and an incorporation of two channel FADEC(Full Authority Digital Engine Control) system for more reliable operation. The first engine run for development and qualification test was successfully completed in 2008. Since the PFRT(Preliminary Flight Rating Test) has been completed, the first flight of the engine installed in the first prototype of KUH has been successfully demonstrated in March, 2010 and the engine installation compatibility tests are being carried out during KUH flight test. The test and evaluation for qualification has been done except for the low cycle fatigue test up to date.

Due to rapidly increasing air traffic congestion and airspace restrictions, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is urging all aircraft to use SBAS by 2025, in order to implement Performance-based navigation to increase airspace capacity. In line with this, research and development of Korean-style SBAS, which reflects the characteristics of Korea's airspace environment, continues in Korea. Since there is no flight inspection procedure for performance testing and verification of SBAS in Korea yet, this paper analyzes FAA, ICAO Regulations, and laws enacted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to derive essential evaluations and parameters of Korean SBAS, and presents the optimal design using RTK-DGPS as a position fixing system.

In this work, infrared targets for a developed hardware-in-the-loop simulation(HILS) system are proposed for a performance test of a dual-sensor imaging seeker equipped with an infrared and a visible sensor that can lock and track for ground and air targets. This integrated system is composed of 100 modules of heat and light sources to simulate various kinds of target and the trajectory of moving targets based on scenarios. It is possible to simulate not only the position, velocity, and direction for these targets but also background clutter and jamming environments. The design and measurement results of an infrared target, such as the HILS system configuration, developed for testing and evaluation of a dual-sensor imaging seeker are described. In the future, it is planned to test the lock-on and tracking performance of an imaging seeker equipped with single or dual sensors dynamically in real time based on a simulation flight scenario in the developed HILS system.

This paper describes the re-design and the calibration results of the MAG digital circuit onboard the KSR-3. We enhanced the sampling rate of magnetometer data. Also, we reduced noise and increased authoritativeness of data. We could confirm that AIM resolution was decreased less than InT of analog calibration by a digital calibration of magnetometer. Therefore, we used numerical-program to correct this problem. As a result, we could calculate correction and error of data. These corrections will be applied to magnetometer data after the launch of KSR-3.

Recently, environmentally friendly aviation propulsion systems have received a lot of attention. Therefore, many studies have been conducted on the development of UAVs and propulsion systems that can perform missions while relying on a combination of various power sources. In this paper, we show the design results of a hybrid propulsion system based on solar-power generation. It integrates a single system to test reliability and performance. Finally, a verification test is conducted on the aircraft to confirm the function and normal operation of the system before a flight test.

CanSat Competition has been annually held in South Korea since 2012 to give students an opportunity for better understanding of system design and operation processes of satellite. SCSky CanSat(Smart Call from the Sky Can Satellite) proposed in this study is a name of CanSat that was participated in 2016 CanSat competition. Its main mission objective is to obtain flight imaging data of inside and outside the CanSat through the video call using on-board smart phone in the CanSat. To implement this mission, we developed a remote touch system using SMA(Shape Memory Alloy) wire. In addition, a wide scan camera mechanism using SMA spring was developed to obtain ground imaging data during the mission. This study introduced the mission of the SCSky CanSat, as well as the description of on-board payloads, system design results, and flight test results.
