The history books of East Asia about astronomical phenomena have the more records of the solar eclipse frequently than any other ones. It is because traditionally, the solar eclipse moaned the fate of dynasty and the king's rule. The Sun, the biggest thing in the heaven symbolized the king, and the solar eclipse foresaw that the king had the problem in private including the body, and the country might suffer from difficulties in a great scale. So the king and all of the ministers used to gather to hold a ceremony named Gusikrye(구식례) which solar eclipse may pass safely. Consequently, kings always had concernments on collecting informations of solar eclipse. Inspite of importance of solar eclipse predictions, but at the beginning of the Choseon, the predictions of the solar eclipse didn't fit. King Sejong compiled the Chiljeongsan-naepion (칠정산내편) and the Chiljeongsan-oepyeon(칠정산외편) to calculate the celestial phenomena including the solar eclipse. By the publications of these two books, the calendar making system of Choseon was firmly established. The Chiljeongsan-oepyeon adopted Huihui calendar(회회력) of Arabia. The Solar eclipse predictions of Chiljeongsan-oepyeon were relative correct compared to modern method in early Choseon dynasty.

A Neustrelitz TEC model (NTCM) developed by Deutsches Zentrum $f{\ddot{u}}r$ Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) provides a better accuracy than the global positioning system (GPS) Klobuchar model for predicting ionospheric delay. The NTCM model accuracy is comparable to Galileo NeQuick model, and it has less computation time. The NTCM model uses F10.7 values as a parameter of solar activity function, while a NTCM-Broadcast (NTCM-BC) uses TEC values from a Klobuchar model. For this reason, a NTCM-BC model can be used for real-time ionosphere correction. In this paper, vertical ionospheric delay and GPS positioning errors in Korea by using a NTCM-BC ionosphere model from 2009 to 2014 are analyzed and compared with those of a Klobuchar model. In the 6-year statistics, the vertical ionospheric delay is reduced by 17.7 %, and horizontal and vertical positioning accuracies by the NTCM-BC model are improved by 25.6 % and 6.7 %, respectively, over the Klobuchar model.

The international EARTHSHINE mission is to measure 1% anomaly of the Earth global albedo and total solar irradiance using Amon-Ra instrument around Lagrange point 1. We developed a new ray truing based integrated end-to-end simulation tool that overcomes the shortcomings of the existing end-to-end performance simulation techniques. We then studied the in-orbit radiometric performance of the breadboard Anon-Ra visible channel optical system. The TSI variation and the Earth albedo anomaly, reported elsewhere, were used as the key input variables in the simulation. The output flux at the instrument focal plane confirms that the integrated ray tracing based end-to-end science simulation delivers the correct level of incident power to the Amon-Ra instrument well within the required measurement error budget of better than ${\pm}0.28%$. Using the global angular distribution model (ADM), the incident flux is then used to estimate the Earth global albedo and the TSI variation, confirming the validity of the primary science cases at the L1 halo orbit. These results imply that the integrated end-to-end ray tracing technique, reported here, can serve as an effective and powerful building block of the on-line science analysis tool in support of the international EARTHSHINE mission currently being developed.

This paper applied one of the well-known optimal control theory, namely, linear quadratic regulator(LQR), to the station-keeping maneuvers(SKM) for a geostationary satellite. The boundary conditions to transfer the system with a good accuracy at a terminal time were based upon the predicted orbital data which are created due to the Earth's non-uniform mass distribution's effect during 14 days and due to luni-solar effect during 28 days. Through the linearization of the nonlinear system equation with respect to reference orbit and the numerical integration of Riccati equation, the optimal trajectories and the corresponding control law have been obtained by using LQR. From the comparison of ${\Delta}V$ obtained by LQR with the ${\Delta}V$ obtained anatically by geometric method, Station Keeping Maneuvers(SKM) via LQR may provide comparable results to a real system. Furthermore it will demonstrate the possibility in fuel optimization and life extension of geostationary satellite.

An orbit propagation software for the Mars orbiting spacecraft has been developed and verified in preparations for the future Korean Mars missions. Dynamic model for Mars orbiting spacecraft has been studied, and Mars centered coordinate systems are utilized to express spacecraft state vectors. Coordinate corrections to the Mars centered coordinate system have been made to adjust the effects caused by Mars precession and nutation. After spacecraft enters Sphere of Influence (SOI) of the Mars, the spacecraft experiences various perturbation effects as it approaches to Mars. Every possible perturbation effect is considered during integrations of spacecraft state vectors. The Mars50c gravity field model and the Mars-GRAM 2001 model are used to compute perturbation effects due to Mars gravity field and Mars atmospheric drag, respectively. To compute exact locations of other planets, JPL's DE405 ephemerides are used. Phobos and Deimos's ephemeris are computed using analytical method because their informations are not released with DE405. Mars Global Surveyor's mapping orbital data are used to verify the developed propagator performances. After one Martian day propagation (12 orbital periods), the results show about maximum ${\pm}5$ meter errors, in every position state components(radial, cross-track and along-track), when compared to these from the Astrogator propagation in the Satellite Tool Kit. This result shows high reliability of the developed software which can be used to design near Mars missions for Korea, in future.

Space radiation environment for COMS is simulated by NASA AP8/AE8, JPL91 and NRL CREME models, respectively for trapped particle, solar proton and cosmic-ray. The radiation effects on electronic devices in communication payload are also estimated by using simulation results. Dose-depth curve and LET spectrum are calculated for estimating total ionizing dose(TID) effect and single event effect(SEE) respectively. Spherical sector method is applied to dose estimation at each position in the units of communication payload to consider shielding effect of platform and housing. Total ionizing dose at each position varies by 8 times through shielding effect under the same external space radiation environment.

We evaluate the degradation of receiver sensitivity induced by direct and indirect exposure to solar irradiance in free-space optical communication systems. For this purpose, we calculate the variances of numerous noise components arising from solar irradiance, and then estimate the receiver sensitivity penalties for intensity-modulation/direct-detection and coherent systems. The results show that the penalties are less than 1.3 dB when indirect sunlight impinges on the detector, regardless of the system. However, the sensitivity penalties are estimated to be larger than 30 dB when the sunlight is directly incident upon the receiver. These penalties are barely reduced if we insert an optical polarizer, or if we adjust the bandwidth of an optical filter at the receiver to be as narrow as the signal's bandwidth.

To assess the noise stress of shrimp farms reasonably, we need a noise observation data underneath the waters first. But, it did not collect yet and airborne noise transfers to water noise wave using transition calculation. In case of construction of solar energy without noise stress protection wall, the threshold values (140 dB) from circumstance of underwater noise exceed within 17m at $S_2$ (15m away from source) and $S_3$ (15m away from source). Considering additional way to decrease the construction noise, all cases including minimum mode(Case A), general mode(Case B), and maximum mode(Case C) meet the guideline of underwater noise for fish farms. In case of the underwater noise could affect the fish farm, it is necessary to understand about farming species such as shrimp, monitoring of present states, and protection way under the construction.

We investigate the propagation of Coronal Mass Ejections(CMEs) near the earth with multi-satellite observations. Among the CMEs observed in the near-earth between Nov. 1994 and Nov. 1997, we select two events of Jan. 6-11,1997 and Nov. 4-7, 1997 which were observed by more than 3 satellites when these satellites were located apart with a sufficient distance from each other. We determine the speed and propagation of the two CMEs by calculating the position of each satellite in various coordinates and the onset time of each event. The results show that the speed of CMEs becomes significantly reduced when the perturbation arrives in the magnetosphere. It is also suggested that the propagation of the CMEs is approximated as the -x direction in GSE coordinates in the near-earth space.
