The north panel of a geostationary satellite is used as one of the main radiators, on which communication equipment or bus equipment are installed. The thermal control of panel is designed by using embedded heat pipes and surface heat pipes (or external heat pipes) to spread out heat dissipated from equipment all over the radiator evenly and finally to reject the heat to the space through the radiator efficiently. This panel is also divided by several areas based on the operating temperature and dissipation of equipment in order to increase heat rejection capability of radiator. The thermal analysis is carried out for the hot case, Winter Solsitce EOL (End Of Life), in order to validate thermal design of the panel utilized 6 surface heat pipes and 8 embedded heat pipes. The sensitivity studies for the heat pipe failure case and no heat pipe case are performed and compared to its normal state. The heat transport capability of heat pipe is also obtained from these calculations.

A heat dissipation modeling method of EEE parts, or semi-empirical heat dissipation method, is developed for thermal design and analysis an electronic equipment of geostationary satellite. The power consumption measurement value of each functional breadboard is used for the heat dissipation modeling method. For the purpose of conduction heat transfer modeling of EEE parts, surface heat model using very thin ignorable thermal plates is developed instead of conventional lumped capacity nodes. The thermal plates are projected to the printed circuit board and can be modeled and modified easily by numerically preprocessing programs according to design changes. These modeling methods are applied to the thermal design and analysis of CTU (Command and Telemetry Unit) and verified by thermal cycling and vacuum tests.

본 논문에서는 비정지궤도 위성 수와 비정지궤도 위성과 정지궤도 위성간의 각도 차에 따른 간섭정도가 정지궤도 위성망의 성능에 미치는 영향을 BER 성능측면에서 분석하였다. 위성간의 각도와 간섭 영향을 분석하기 위해 정지궤도 위성과 비정지궤도 위성간의 이격 각도를 $1^{\circ}{\sim}8^{\circ}$ 변화시켰으며, 위성수의 영향을 분석하기 위해 비정지궤도 위성 수를 1~4개로 변화시켰다. 이러한 조건에서 실험한 결과 위성간의 각도가 감소하면 할수록 간섭의 영향은 더욱 증가되었으며, 특히 간섭위성과 정지궤도 위성과의 각이 작은 경우 이러한 간섭의 정도는 더욱 심해짐을 확인하였다. 또한, 간섭 위성의 수가 증가하면 할수록 정지궤도 위성 서비스로의 간섭 영향 역시 증가됨을 확인하였다. 하지만 간섭 위성 수 보다는 간섭위성과 이루는 각도가 더 시스템의 성능에 더 큰 영향을 미쳤다.

The COMS, Korea's first geostationary multipurpose satellite program will accommodate 3 kind of payloads; Ka-Band communication transponder, GOCI (Geostationary Ocean Color Imager), and MI (Meteorological Imager). MI raw data will be transferred to ground station via L-band link. The ground station will perform image data processing for raw data, generate them into the LRIT/HRIT format, the user dissemination data recommended by the CGMS. The LRIT/HRIT are disseminated via satellite to user stations. This paper shows the COMS LRIT data generation procedure based on COMS LRIT specification and its verification results using the LRIT user station.

Automation of the key flight dynamics operations for the geostationary orbit satellite mission is analyzed and designed. The automation includes satellite orbit determination, orbit prediction, event prediction, and fuel accounting. An object-oriented analysis and design methodology is used for design of the automation system. Automation scenarios are investigated first and then the scenarios are allocated to use cases. Sequences of the use cases are diagramed. Then software components and graphical user interfaces are designed for automation. The automation will be applied to the Communication, Ocean, and Meteorology Satellite (COMS) flight dynamics system for daily routine operations.

COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) is a geostationary satellite and has been developing by KARI for communication, ocean and meteorological observations. It will be tested under vacuum condition and very low temperature 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 such as north and south panels. They will be controlled from 90K to 273K by circulating GN2 and LN2 alternatively according to the test phases, while the shroud of the vacuum chamber will be under constant temperature, 90K, 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 COMS(Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite), a multi-mission geo-stationary satellite, is being developed by KARl. The first mission of the COMS is the meteorological image and data gathering for weather forecast by using a five channel meteorological imager. The second mission is the oceanographic image and data gathering for marine environment monitoring around Korean Peninsula by using an eight channel Geostationary Ocean Color Imager(GOCI). The third mission is newly developed Ka-Band communication payload certification test in space by providing communication service in Korean Peninsula and Manjurian area. There were many low Earth orbit satellites for ocean monitoring. However, there has never been any geostationary satellite for ocean monitoring. The COMS is going to be the first satellite for ocean monitoring mission on the geo-stationary orbit. The meteorological image and data obtained by the COMS will be distributed to end users in Asia-Pacific area and it will contribute to the improved weather forecast.

정지궤도위성은 다수의 탑재체를 하나의 위성체 플랫폼에 탑재하고 2010년 6월 26일에 발사되었다. 전력계는 태양 및 식 기간 상태에서 완전 조절 $50V_{DC}$ 전력 버스를 제공한다. 위성에서 요구되는 전력은 태양전지 배열기 윙에서 생성되며, 에너지는 192.5Ah 용량의 리튬-이온 배터리에 저장된다. 본 논문은 전력계의 성능 평가를 향후 정지궤도위성 설계에 활용하기 위해 전력계의 중요 설계 변수들을 선정하고, 지상에서 시험 결과와 궤도상에서 운영 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 설계로부터 궤도상에서 운영 결과까지의 성능 평가를 통해 전력계는 중요한 성능감소 없이 정상적으로 동작되고 있음을 입증하였다.

The modulation transfer function (MTF) is a widely used indicator in assessments of remote-sensing image quality. This MTF method is also used to restore information to a standard value to compensate for image degradation caused by atmospheric or satellite jitter effects. In this study, we evaluated MTF values as an image quality indicator for the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI). GOCI was launched in 2010 to monitor the ocean and coastal areas of the Korean peninsula. We evaluated in-orbit MTF value based on the GOCI image having a 500-m spatial resolution in the first time. The pulse method was selected to estimate a point spread function (PSF) with an optimal natural target such as a Seamangeum Seawall. Finally, image restoration was performed with a Wiener filter (WF) to calculate the PSF value required for the optimal regularization parameter. After application of the WF to the target image, MTF value is improved 35.06%, and the compensated image shows more sharpness comparing with the original image.

The Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) is an important satellite-driven variable for understanding the Earth's energy budget balance. The geostationary OLR retrievals require angular and spectral integration using an empirical equation for irradiance flux-to-OLR from a regression analysis, which determines the accuracy of the narrowband satellite-based OLR. We selected homogeneous pixels which is satisfied less temporal-spatial variability of cloud, on three infrared channels (6.7, 10.8, $12.0{\mu}m$) of the first multipurpose geostationary satellite in Korea, namely the Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite/Meteorological Imager (COMS/MI). Multiple regression analysis was performed to retrieve OLR with improved accuracy using selected parameters based on theoretical and physical significance. This algorithm yielded retrieval with higher accuracy than broadband-based OLR retrieval: RMSE of 10.54 to $3.81W\;m^{-2}$, and bias of -8.49 to $-0.07W\;m^{-2}$.
