저궤도 위성은 지상국과의 접속 중에 X-band 안테나를 이용해 촬영한 영상을 전송한다. X-band 안테나는 교신 시간 동안 TPF (tracking parameter file)에 따라 움직이며 지상국의 안테나를 지속적으로 지향한다. TPF 생성 소프트웨어는 위성의 궤도 및 자세 정보와 촬영 및 다운링크 임무 정보를 이용해 X-band 안테나가 지상국을 지향하도록 하는 Azimuth, Elevation 정보를 생성한다. 위성이 지상국 상공을 지나가는 경우 X-band 안테나 특성 상 방위각 속도가 급격하게 증가하며, 특정 각속도로 회전하는 경우 위성의 지터를 유발할 수 있다. 영상촬영과 다운링크를 동시에 수행하는 실시간 임무의 경우 지터에 의한 영상 열화를 방지하기 위해 Azimuth 각속도를 일정 수준 이하로 낮춰야 한다. 현재 사용하는 방법인 한 점의 가상 지상국을 지향하는 방법으로는 각속도를 낮추는데 한계가 있다. 이 논문에서는 방위각 고정 기법을 이용해 X-band 안테나의 Azimuth 각속도를 낮추는 방법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 방법을 이용해 방위각 속도가 현저하게 감소함을 나타낸다.

An operational orbit determination (OD) and prediction system for the geostationary Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) mission requires accurate satellite positioning knowledge to accomplish image navigation registration on the ground. Ranging and tracking data from a single ground station is used for COMS OD in normal operation. However, the orbital longitude of the COMS is so close to that of satellite tracking sites that geometric singularity affects observability. A method to solve the azimuth bias of a single station in singularity is to periodically apply an estimated azimuth bias using the ranging and tracking data of two stations. Velocity increments of a wheel off-loading maneuver which is performed twice a day are fixed by planned values without considering maneuver efficiency during OD. Using only single-station data with the correction of the azimuth bias, OD can achieve three-sigma position accuracy on the order of 1.5 km root-sum-square.

The objective of this research is to study the variation of optimum slope angles of collectors for seven regions in Korea, which are Seoul, Gangneung, Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju, Busan and Jeju. The results for 2000~2007 are analyzed to sec if adjustment of slope angles is necessary each year to receive maximum solar radiation. For an azimuth fixed solar collector, solar radiation of yearly optimized slope angle during May~Sept.(summer), Nov.~Mar.(winter) and the whole year are greater than the fixed slope angle by 0.03%, 0.02%, and 0.04%, respectively. For an azimuth tracking solar collector, solar radiation of yearly optimized slope angle during May~Sept.(slimmer), Nov.-Mar.(winter) and the whole year are greater than the fixed slope angle by 0.03%, 0.07%, and 0.04% respectively. It is unnecessary to adjust slope angles each year for both azimuth fixed and tracking collectors, since the gains are insignificant. Solar radiation of the azimuth tracking solar collector during May~Sept., Nov.~Mar. and the whole year are greater by 14.7%, 16.0%, and 19.2% than the azimuth fixed solar collector.

강릉원주대학교는 캠퍼스 내에 저탄소 녹색기술 아이템들을 설치하였다. 그 중에 태양열 급탕시스템은 태양열 집열판을 고정식과 방위추적식의 두 가지 방식으로 설치하였으며, 기존의 고정식 집열판과 새로운 방위추적식 집열판을 사용하는 급탕시스템의 집열량을 비교하기 위해 모니터링을 실시하였다. 본 논문에서는 태양열 급탕시스템의 구성 및 모니터링 시스템을 소개하고 모니터링 결과를 통해 고정식과 방위추적식 태양열 집열판을 사용한 두 가지 급탕시스템의 집열성능을 비교하였다. 방위추적식의 집열량이 고정식보다 맑은 날에는 19%, 비온 날에는 23%, 평균 21% 만큼 더 크다는 것을 보여준다.

In this paper, control of an omni-directional mobile robot is presented. Relying on encoder measurements to define the azimuth angle yields the dead-reckoned situation which the robot fails in localization. The azimuth angle error due to dead-reckoning is compensated and corrected by the magnetic compass sensor. Noise from the magnetic compass sensor has been filtered out. Kinematics and dynamics of the omni-directional mobile robot are derived based on the global coordinates and used for simulation studies. Experimental studies are also conducted to show the correction by the magnetic compass sensor.

본 논문에서는 가시선 데이터링크용 추적안테나 시스템에 적용하기 위한 방위각 보정 알고리즘에 대해 연구한다. 이동하는 물체와 가시선 통신링크를 유지하기 위해서는 추적안테나 시스템이 필수적이다. 방위각과 고각계산을 위해서는 이동체와 안테나시스템의 GPS값을 이용하는데, 이때 두 좌표계의 동일성을 유지하기 위해서 초기에 지자기센서나 beacon등을 이용하여 보정을 하게 된다. 하지만 지형적으로 지자기교란이 생기기 쉬운 장소에서는 정확한 보정이 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 초기에 RF신호의 수신세기추적을 통해서 신호의 발생 위치를 검출하고 검출된 위치까지의 방위각 보정 값을 계산하여 통신링크개설 후 수신된 GPS값에 보정 값을 적용함으로서 주변의 영향을 최소화하면서 쉽고 빠르게 보정할 수 있다.

The sunlight tracking and reflexing system can be divided into two parts. One is a sunlight tracking system and the other is a sunlight reflexing system. The sunlight tracking system detects an azimuth angie and an elevation angle of the sun using 2-axis sensor sun tracker. The sunlight reflexing system controls a reflection mirror to be reflected a sunlight at the target area after getting the azimuth angle and the elevation angle of the sun from the sunlight tracking system. We applied the fuzzy PID controller to control the reflexing mirror.

This thesis introduced an azimuth tracking prismatic daylighting system. The system improved several issues of the previous passive prismatic daylighting system: low efficiency at sunrise and sunset, glare effect and polarized. The system was developed to track the movement of sun with azimuth tracking device, and it has its own power from the attached solar cells. We compared the with previous passive one in terms with system efficiency and daylighting factors(DF).

The photovoltaic is one of the most important sustainable technologies appliable to architectures. The power performance mainly depends on the installation conditions of them. This study aims to evaluate the power performance of photovoltaic system by the installation conditions, the tracking methods and reflecting mirrors. For the study, the Solar Pro computer simulations have been conducted on installation angles, solar azimuth and solar altitude. Also, the field mock-up tests are performed to of its application to verify the simulation results. Both the results of the experiment and the simulation have proved that the efficiency of 90-degree fixed angle method was higher than that of 30-degree fixed angle, the efficiency of altitude tracking was better than that of azimuth tracking method, and changing both the altitude and the azimuth together is more efficient rather than the shortened tracing way. In addition, the light-concentrating method in which the incidence angle of the sun is controlled by an adhered reflector has been analyzed to have better efficiency than the general method of tracing according to the orbit of the sun. Therefore, this thesis is expected to offer the basic data to set a more effective tracing-type of photovoltaic power generation system in the future. For this, more researches are to be conducted hereafter on a high efficiency drive motor and the establishment of an economic system.

The In solar power system, the height and azimuth of the sun are important parameters which control generated power magnitude. The tracking method that controls the daily generation magnitude according to latitude and longitude using the two axles is often used in the existing sunlight tracking system today. In this two-axle PV track control system, the self-load is concentrated on one FRAME. It is influenced of the regular load, snow load and the wind load, etc. It is difficult to set up the system in the conventional building. This research is a development about the small-scale economy track device of independent load-dispersing solar generation system. The position tracking algorithm is through new coordinates transformation calculating the height and azimuth of the sun.
