COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite), which will be launched in June 23rd, 2010 and located on geostationary orbit at the latitude of $128.2^{\circ}E$, is a multi-function satellite for communications, ocean observation, and meteorology. In order to operate Ka-band communication payload effectively, which is one of the three payloads for COMS, the Transponder Monitoring and Control (TMC) system are necessary in ground systems. In this paper, the concepts and design of the TMC system for COMS Ka-band payload are described.

GOCI is the core paryload of the geostationary satellite COMS(Communication, Ocean and Meteological Satellite) for ocean monitoring. It is scheduled to be launched at the end of 2008. GOCI observes ocean color around the Korean Peninsula over $2500km\times2500km$ area. It used tilted two-axis scan mechanism to observe entire field of view. In this work, the pointing stability of the tilted two-axis method is analyzed and compared with that of gimbal method. The analysis results show that tilted two-axis method gives great stability and it is adequate for geostationary payload. The results can also be used to determine and analyze the mechanism specifications.

천리안 위성은 우리나라 최초의 정지궤도 복합 지구관측 위성으로 기상관측, 해양관측과 통신서비스 임무를 수행하는 중대형위성으로 2011년 6월 27일에 성공적으로 발사되어 약 6개월간의 시험운영기간을 거쳐 현재는 실시간 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 천리안 위성은 한국항공우주연구원(KARI) 총괄 주관하에 2003년 9월 개발을 시작으로 프랑스의 EADS-Astrium과 공동 개발되었다. 천리안 위성은 이미 EADS-Astrium에 의해 통신 위성 본체 플랫폼으로 우주 인증된 Eurostar3000(이하 E3000) 플랫폼을 근간으로 제작되었다. 본 논문에서는 천리안 위성 플랫폼 탑재컴퓨터에 탑재되어 위성체 전반을 운영하는 비행소프트웨어의 구성 및 기능에 대해 기술한다. 또한 기존의 EADS-Astrium사의 E3000 비행소프트웨어 생산라인을 바탕으로 천리안 위성 비행소프트웨어를 개발하기 위한 개발 절차 형상을 소개한다. 본 논문에서 기술한 재생산을 위한 개발 절차에 대한 접근 방법은 위성 임베디드 소프트웨어 시스템과 같은 mission critical 시스템이면서 이미 검증된 소프트웨어를 재사용하고 사용자의 요구사항을 만족시키기 위해 일부 기능을 변경 및 추가 개발하여 통합된 소프트웨어를 생산해야하는 소프트웨어 개발체계의 실질적인 한 예를 보여주고 있다.

Red tide occurs every year in the coastal seas of the South Korea, This phenomena has become a national issue of environmental and economic damage. In this study, we analyzed a suitable conditions to occur the red tide by using oceanic and atmospheric data during 10 years, These factors were applied to predict the red tide occurrence from 2012 to 2014. As a result, in 2012 and 2013, it is able to alarm the red tide occurrence before 6~11 days. However, in compared to the normal year and 2014, the prediction of red tide occurrence were less accurate because of more precipitation, short sunshine duration, low temperature waters. Therefore, it is necessary to further investigate the impact of sunshine duration(Solar radiation) on red tide occurrence, it is more necessary to consider the comprehensive analysis using additional oceanic and atmospheric factors.

The COMS, which is a multi-purposed satellite that provide the oceanic measurement data and meterological image data, is operating since 2010. Ka-band satellite communication transponder in COMS gets the MSM function that can provide the required multi-beam and transmits the multi-mode signal with high data rate. The phase noise of COMS communication transponder can be increased because of several local oscillators for MSM function and the utilization of Ka-band frequency. The phase noise affects the performance for the multi-mode and high rate data based- transmission method, it is not possible to recover the transmission data in system with the high system phase noise. In this paper, the phase noise of COMS was measured and the effects of the measured phase noise are analysed and evaluated in the viewpoint of the noise bandwidth of transmission system, Also the transmission performances for multi-mode and high rate data are evaluated in the presence of COMS phase noise.

The COMS(Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite) is subjected to shock loads when the stage or fairing of a launch vehicle is separated and the satellite is separated from the launch vehicle during the launch vehicle flight. And, after the satellite is separated from the launcher, the COMS is subjected to shock loads when the solar array is deployed, Ka-Band communication antenna is deployed, and meteorological imager radiator cover is released. In order to validate the satellite safety against these shock loads on ground, shock tests were performed. In this paper, the shock tests performed in the course of the COMS development are described, and the method to assess the test result is presented with an example of Geostationary Ocean Color Imager(GOCI). In Ariane-5 launch vehicle, the clampband release shock for satellite separation is lower than the fairing or stage separation. In this paper, the extrapolation method to take into account the maximum shock load from the launch vehicle by using the satellite separation shock test result is also introduced.

By means of the our satellite development for the past 20 years, it ensure us to obtain domestic independent development capabilities. In the case of practical-class Low-Earth Orbit(LEO) remote sensing satellites, we become a world-class developer. Furthermore, we acquire the technology to develop domestic-leading geostationary satellites, depending on the mission. Currently, we proceed with the next-generation mid-size satellite development program featuring standard bus for the expansion of the world market and has embarked on the development of lunar orbiter from this year.

어업분야의 선진화를 위하여 해양수산분야의 현황파악 및 문제점 분석을 통한 어업정보화의 발전방향을 설정하고 다양한 정책을 효율적으로 추진하여 해양자원관리 및 활용성 제고를 통한 종합적이고 체계적인 정보화 기반을 조성해야 할 것이며, 이를 위해서는 어업통신의 정보화가 필수적일 것이다. 해상이동체인 어선들을 상대로 정보통신망을 구성하기 위한 통신수단에는 위성통신망이 있으나 장기적으로 사용시 막대한 통화료 부담이 있으므로 영세한 어업인들에게는 도입될 회망이 없다고 보아도 무방하며, 최적의 방안으로 기존의 SSB통신시스템을 이용하는 방법이 연구되고 있다. 운용비 부담이 없는 HF대 SSB통신에 의한 어업통신망을 구성하기 위해서는 육상의 해안국에서는 정보시스템 운영의 기본체계인 무선 송ㆍ수신소 구축 및 무선통신망 프로토콜에 의한 무선데이타 통신시스템이 갖추어져야 할 것이다. 그리고 어선에는 무선데이타 통신을 하기 위한 단말장치가 필수적이라 하겠다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 동 시스템에 CPS를 연동하여 이동하는 어선이 실시간에 자동으로 위치를 송출하고, 해상기상ㆍ엇가ㆍ해황 둥 각종 정보를 수집할 수 있는 어선용 단말기를 구현하기 위한 방안에 대하여 제안하였다.

Telecommunication satellite consists of a bus system and an RF payload system with high efficiency and high gain reflector antennas. Antenna measurement and also RF system performance (antenna under test, payload and satellite level) have to be evaluated enough before launching in the far-field range or equivalent test range. Basically far-field range is required in a range from two hundred meters to several kilo meters, and it is highly constrained to the externa1 environment, like the RF and the whether environment So the compact antenna test range is developed and used efficiently without external environments as in-door facility. This paper describes the configuration of the compact antenna test range, the range error, and the physical concept of the plane wave illumination Also, it provides a overall design of the anechoic chamber and range parameter values to accommodate the precision measurements in antenna test range.
