COMS(Communication, Oceanography, and Meteorology Satellite) is the first Korean multi-purpose satellite which is planned to be deployed at the altitude of geosynchronous orbit above the Korean peninsular. Noting that COMS is composed of the main BUS structure, two deployable solar panels, one yoke, five reactions wheels, COMS is treated as a collection of 9 bodies and its nonlinear equations of motion are obtained using the multi-body dynamics approach. Also, a computer program is developed to analyze the COMS motion during the various mission phase. Quite often, the equations of motion have to be derived repeatedly to reflect the fact that the spacecraft dynamics change as its configuration, and therefore its degree of freedom varies. However, the equations of motion and simulation software presented in this paper are general enough to represent the COMS dynamics of various configurations with a minimum change in input files. There is no need to derive the equations of motion repeatedly. To show the capability of the simulation program, the spacecraft motion during the solar array partial and full deployment has been simulated and the results are summarized in this paper.

정지궤도 위성의 위치는 여러 외부 교란력에 의해서 끊임없이 움직이기 때문에 우주에서 한 점으로 정의할 수 없다. 따라서 정지궤도 위성의 통신방송과 같은 일반적 임무를 수행하기 위해서는 우주의 한정된 공간인 위치유지박스 내에 운용되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 남북위치유지 오차보다 상대적으로 큰 동서 위치유지 박스를 설정하기 위해서 여러 오차들을 유도하여 정립하였다. 이를 이용하여 무궁화위성에서 사용하고 있는 7일의 위치유지주기를 검증하고 14일로 위치유지 주기를 늘릴 경우의 문제점을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 정지궤도 통신위성인 무궁화위성 3호 버스 시스템을 모델로 하여 확장칼만필터를 이용한 자세결정 알고리즘을 개발하고 그 설계 결과를 시뮬레이션을 통해 제시하였다. 특히, 정확한 추정을 위한 칼만필터의 필터 이득을 결정하기 위해서는 초기에 입력된 추정변수들의 값에 변동이 없는 상황을 가정하게 되는데 본 연구에서는 2Hz 로 자세제어도 동시에 수행하면서 필터이득을 구하여 추정변수들의 값에 변동이 있는 상황에서도 필터가 정상적으로 동작됨을 보였다. 최종적으로 필터를 사용하지 않은 경우와 사용한 경우를 고려하여 4축 자이로의 각 바이어스가 있는 경우 및 개별적으로 자이로가 고장이 난 경우의 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 설계된 필터가 자이로 이상상태를 대처할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

While it is presumed that substorm injection electrons of a few hundred keV are the seeds for relativistic electrons frequently observed during the recovery phase of storms, correlation between the two events has not been well explored with the observed satellite data. We would like to address this problem in the present paper using the data from the geosynchronous GOES and LANL satellites as well as from the polar orbiting NOAA satellites. Our statistical study shows the two channels of LANL SOPA instrument, 105 150 keV and 150 225 keV, best correlates with the increase of the flux levels of GOES relativistic electrons. Especially, the relativistic electron events are not observed when the flux levels of these two channels are maintained low in the substorm injections, regardless of the level of the ULF activities. The conclusion does not change whether the substorm injections occur . during the storm recovery phase or during the non-storm time. As the ULF waves are observed quite frequently over the entire range of L=4 to L=7, the reason why REEs are seen mostly during the storm time seems to be related to the fact that storm-time substorms produce more seed electrons than the substorms that occur during the non-storm time.

This paper presents an algorithm for Real-Time Orbit Determination (RTOD) of navigation satellites for the Korean Regional Navigation Satellite System (KRNSS), when the navigation satellites generate ephemeris by themselves in abnormal situations. The KRNSS is an independent Regional Navigation Satellite System (RNSS) that is currently within the basic/preliminary research phase, which is intended to provide a satellite navigation service for South Korea and neighboring countries. Its candidate constellation comprises three geostationary and four elliptical inclined geosynchronous orbit satellites. Relative distance ranging between the KRNSS satellites based on Inter-Satellite Ranging (ISR) is adopted as the observation model. The extended Kalman filter is used for real-time estimation, which includes fine-tuning the covariance, measurement noise, and process noise matrices. Simulation results show that ISR precision of 0.3-0.7 m, ranging capability of 65,000 km, and observation intervals of less than 20 min are required to accomplish RTOD accuracy to within 1 m. Furthermore, close correlation is confirmed between the dilution of precision and RTOD accuracy.

Many spacecraft failures and anomalies have been attributed to energetic electrons in the Earth's magnetosphere. While the dynamics of these electrons have been studied extensively for several decades, the fundamental question of how they are accelerated is not fully resolved. Proposed theories have not been successful in explaining fast high energy increase such as REE (Relativistic electron enhancement). In this presentation, we show observations of energetic electron precipitation measured by the Korean satellite, STSAT-1 which simultaneously detect (100ev - 20 keV) and (170 - 360 keV) energy electrons at the 680 km orbit, when the RES event observed at the geosynchronous orbit on October 13, 2004. STSAT-1 observed intense electron precipitation in both energy ranges occurred in the midnight sector clearly demonstrating that electrons having wide energy band are injected from the plasma sheet. To make the balance between loss and injection, the injected electron flux should be also large. In this situation, the injected electrons can be trapped into the magnetosphere and produce REE, though they have low e-folding energies. We propose this plasma sheet injection might be the primary source of relativistic electron (1 MeV) flux increases.

On August 31, 2001, ${\sim}$ 1705 - 1718 UT, Cluster was located near the midnight magnetotail, GSE (x, y, z) ${\sim}$ (-19, - 2,2) RE, and observed fast earthward flow bursts in the vicinity of the neutral sheet. They occurred while the tail magnetic field suddenly increased. Using simultaneous measurements in the solar wind, at geosynchronous orbit, and on the ground, it is confirmed that tail magnetic field enhancement is due to an increased solar wind pressure. In the neutral sheet region, strongly enhanced earthward flow bursts perpendicular to the local magnetic field $(V_{{\perp}x})$ were observed. Auroral brightenings localized in the pre-midnight sector (${\sim}$ 2200 - 2400 MLT) occurred during the interval of the $V_{{\perp}x}$ enhancements. The $V_{{\perp}x}$ bursts started ${\sim}$ 2 minutes before the onset of auroral brightenings. Our observations suggest that the earthward flow bursts are associated with tail reconnection directly driven by a solar wind pressure impulse and that $V_{{\perp}x}$ caused localized auroral brightenings.

Cone Intercept Method(CIM)는 스핀-안정화 인공위성의 자세결정에 사용되는 방법으로서 주로 전이궤도상에서 많이 사용되는 자세결정법이지만 지정청지궤도에서도 사용될 수 있는 방법으로 잘 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 CIM을 지구정지궤도에서 적용하여 얻은 결과를 검토함으로써 CIM의 성능과 한계점을 지적하는데 목적이 있다. CIM은 태양센서와 지구센서를 사용하는데 태양센서는 태양원추각을 구하기 위한 것이며, 지구센서는 지구원추각을 구하기 위한 것이다. CIM은 이 2개의 원추각으로 형성된 원추들의 교선을 구하므로써 인공위성의 스핀축을 찾아낸다.

Advanced Real-Time Satellite Simulator(ARTSS) has been developed to support the telemetry, tracking and command operations of the ETRI satellite control system and to provide satellite engineers a more powerful and informative satellite simulations tool on the desktop. To provide extensive simulation functions for a communication satellite system in the pre-operational and operational missions, ARTSS uses a geosynchronous orbit(GEO) satellite model consisting of the attitude and orbit control subsystem, the power subsystem, the thermal subsystem, the telemetry, command and ranging subsystem, and the communications payload subsystem. In this paper, the system features and functions are presented and the satellite subsystem models are explained in detail.
