본 연구에서는 레이더 강우의 지상보정(ground-truth)을 위해 사용가능한 기상청(KMA), AWS 및 건설교통부(MOCT) 강우자료를 다양한 지상보정 설계에 적용하여 비교 평가하였다. 본 연구에서는 동일 기간의 KMA, MOCT, AWS의 우량계 자료와 관악산 레이더 강우자료를 이용하였으며, 각각 두 관측방법사이의 차이(오차)를 편의(bias)의 유무 및 크기의 관점에서 평가하였다. 추가로 호우 사상의 특성에 따른 차이도 함께 검토하였다. 그 적용 결과 지상우량계 자료별 편의의 차이는 확연하게 부각되지는 않았으나, 통계 특성치에서는 어느 정도의 차이가 존재함을 확인하였다. 전체적으로 보면 MOCT 우량계 자료를 이용하는 경우가 다른 강우자료를 이용하는 경우에 비해 편의의 규모가 제일 작은 것으로 확인되었다. 호우 사상별로는 강우의 공간적 간헐성이 가장 큰 장마 기간의 경우가 태풍이나 대류성 강우에 비해 설계편의가 작게 나타나는 것으로 확인되었다.

We suggest a multi-path propagation analysis method using DTM(Digital Terrain Map). Generally, the total signal strength at a target is calculated by adding the field propagated in free space and the field reflected from the ground surface. In this paper, we also consider the vertical reflections associated with the vertical surfaces such as precipitous cliffs and electricity pylons in the mountain area. In addition, we primarily take account the main slope of the ground surface to improve the accuracy of the total field density at the target.

Satrec Initiative (Si) is developing a ground processing system for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data. SAR provides its own illumination and is not dependent on the light from sun, thus permitting continuous day/night operation and all-weather imaging. The system is capable of producing standard level products from SAR signal. Hence, the system should be able to perform matched filtering, range compression, azimuth compression, multi-look image generation, and geocoded image generation. This paper will describe the processing steps including algorithms, design, and accuracy of the Si's SAR processing system by comparing with commercial software.

In densely populated urban areas with a large amount of infrastructure, ground subsidence events can result in massive casualties and economic losses. In South Korea, the incidence of ground subsidence in urban areas has increased in recent years and the number of underground cavities suspected of causing such events has significantly increased. Therefore, it is essential to develop techniques to prevent the occurrence of underground and ground subsidence. In this study, a field test, laboratory test, and numerical analysis were conducted to determine the optimal compaction degree of the upper support layer of any underground cavity below the level of sewer pipes in order to prevent such cavities from collapsing and leading to ground subsidence accidents. During the field test, an underground cavity was simulated using ice, and the generation of the cavity was confirmed using ground penetrating radar. The ground investigation was performed using a cone penetration test, and the compaction of the ground where ground subsidence occurred was evaluated with a laboratory test. The behaviour of the ground under various conditions was predicted using a numerical analysis based on the data obtained from the field test and previous studies. Based on these results, the optimal compaction degree of the ground required to prevent the underground cavity from causing ground subsidence was predicted and presented.

본 논문에서는 밀리미터파대역의 공대지 레이다에서 이중 편파 채널을 활용한 지상 표적을 식별하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 먼저 공대지 레이다의 조우 상황에서 Push-Broom 표적 탐지 방법을 설명하고 수신 신호를 모델링한다. 시간 영역 스펙트럼 추정 기법인 RELAX 알고리즘을 이용하여 산란점을 추출하고 표적의 특성 벡터를 생성하였다. 그리고 이를 기반으로 각각의 4표적에 대한 DB를 구성하였다. 제안하는 방법으로 표적 식별 시뮬레이션을 수행한 결과 이중 편파 채널의 데이터를 이용하면 단일 채널에 비해서 표적 식별률이 최대 15% 이상 높아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

영상 레이다(Synthetic Aperture Radar)는 전자파를 이용하여 영상을 생성함에 따라 주 야간 상황과 무관하게 안정적인 광역 관측자료를 확보할 수 있으며 기상 제약 환경과 무관하게 전략적 상업적 목적으로의 감시 및 관찰 기능을 요구하는 임무에 광범위하게 활용될 수 있다. 그러나 SAR 위성 시스템의 경우 넓은 대역의 주파수를 사용하기 때문에 인접대역을 사용하는 레이다 시스템 및 통신기기로부터 간섭 영향에 의해 영상품질을 저하시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 SAR 영상의 품질향상을 위해 간섭 제거 기법인 고유치 기반 필터(Eigen-subspace based Filter) 기법을 제안하였으며, SAR 위성의 간섭제거 알고리즘인 고유치 기반 필터 기법의 정량적인 성능 분석을 위해 일반적인 노치 필터(Notch Filter) 기법을 적용한 결과를 토대로 비교 검증하였다.

This paper analyzes the accuracy on the approach and landing of aircraft to an airport through comparison with airbase Precision Approach Radar and aircraft track data of DGPS equipped in aircraft. The proposed analysis result could be a basis for verifying the possibility that DGPS can be utilized in Airbase precision approach and landing. Position identification capability of widely used commercial DGPS is fairly accurate on latitude and longitude, while there is a slight error for being used in an airbase accurate approach and landing of Category I precision when it comes to altitude. Thus, we tested accuracy by analyzing actual flight track data of high performance aircraft to verify the accuracy of the airbase approach and landing using DGPS. Through the research, we developed instrumentation to compare PAR track data with DGPS track data, which can be used in reducing the number of PAR verification Flight utilizing it as a system measuring PAR accuracy at PAR installation phase.

본 논문은 주파수 변조 연속파 레이더를 사용하여 화물 선박의 탱크의 내용물의 깊이를 측정하는 레벨 센서의 개발에 관한 것이다. 사용 주파수는 10~11 GHz를 이용하였으며, 테스트용 물체는 RCS가 0.8 $m^2$인 도체판을 사용하였다. 실험은 연구실 내부와 운동장에서 하였으며, 스윕 주기가 100 ms, 안테나 이득이 약 20 dBi인 사각형 혼 안테나를 사용하여 약 5 dBm의 신호를 안테나에 인가하여, 40 m 까지 물체를 움직이며 비트주파수를 측정하여 이론치와 비교하였다. 실험치와 이론치가 잘 일치하였으나 전압제어 발진기의 비선형으로 인해 분해능이 약 10 cm 정도로 측정되었다.

Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) is an active micro­wave instrument that performs high-resolution observation under almost all weather conditions. Although there are many advantages of SAR instrument, many complicated steps are involved in order to generate SAR image products. Many research and algorithms have been proposed to process radar signal and to increase the quality of SAR products. However, it is hard to find research which compare the quality of SAR products generated with different algorithms and processing methods. In our previous research, a SAR processing s/w was developed for a ground station. In addition, quality assessment procedures and their test parameters inside a SAR processor was proposed. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the quality of SAR images generated from the developed SAR processing s/w. However, If there are no direct measurements such as radar reflector or scattering field measurement values it is difficult to compare SAR images generated with different methods. An alternative procedures and parameters for SAR image quality evaluation are presented and the problems involved in the comparison methods are discussed. Experiments based on real data have been conducted to evaluate and analyze quality of SAR images.

The permafrost active layer plays an important role in permafrost dynamics. Ecological patterns, processes, and water and ice contents in the active layer are spatially and temporally complex depending on landscape heterogeneity and local-scale variations in hydrological processes. Although there has been emerging interest in the application of optical remote sensing techniques to permafrost environments, optical sensors are significantly limited in accessing information on near surface geo-cryological conditions. The primary objective of this study was to investigate capability of L-band SAR data for monitoring spatio-temporal variability of permafrost ecosystems and underlying soil conditions. This study exploits information from different polarimetric SAR observables in relation to permafrost environmental conditions. Experimental results show that each polarimetric radar observable conveys different information on permafrost environments. In the case of the dual-pol mode, the radar observables consist of two backscattering powers and one correlation coefficient between polarimetric channels. Among them, the dual-pol scattering powers are highly sensitive to freeze/thaw transition and can discriminate grasslands or ponds in thermokarst area from other permafrost ecosystems. However, it is difficult to identify the ground conditions with dual-pol observables. Additional backscattering powers and correlation coefficients obtained from quad-pol mode help understanding seasonal variations ofradar scattering and assessing geo-cryological information on soil layers. In particular, co-pol coherences atHV-basis and circular-basis were found to be very usefultools for mapping and monitoring near surface soil properties.
