The solar wind contributes to the formation of unique space environment called the Earth's magnetosphere by various interactions with the Earth's magnetic field. Thus the solar-terrestrial environment affects the Earth's magnetic field, which can be observed with an instrument for the magnetic field measurement, the magnetometer usually mounted on the rocket and the satellite and based on the ground observatory. The magnetometer is a useful instrument for the spacecraft attitude control as well as the Earth's magnetic field measurements for the spacecraft purpose. In this paper, we present the preliminary design and test results of the two onboard magnetometers of KARI's (Korea Aerospace Research Institute) sounding rocket, KSR-3, which will be launched four times during the period of 2001-02. The KSR-3 magnetometers consist of the fluxgate magnetometer, MAG/AIM (Attitude Information Magnetometer) for acquiring the rocket flight attitude information, and of the search-coil magnetometer, MAG/SIM (Scientific Investigation Magnetometer) for the observation of the Earth's magnetic field fluctuations. With the MAG/AIM, the 3-axis attitude information can be acquired by the comparison of the resulting dc magnetic vector field with the IGRF (International Geomagnetic Reference Field). The Earth's magnetic field fluctuations ranging from 10 to 1,000 Hz can also be observed with the MAG/SIM measurement.

This paper formulates a yaw angle determination algorithm for earth-point satellite. The algorithm based on vector observation, is implemented with the limited vector measurements. The proposed algorithm doesn't require gyro measurement data but magnetic sensor measurement data. In order to confirm the usefulness of the proposed method, we investigate the simulated telemetry data of the KOMPSAT-2, a satellite that is scheduled to be launched into a 685km altitude sun synchronous circular orbit in 2005.

This paper presents the time optimal reorientation solution of three-axis spacecraft which has only three magnetic torquers. It has been very difficult problem because the magnetic torquer generates only perpendicular to Earth magnetic field vector. In this paper, minimum-time solution using only magnetic torquer is solved using collocation method and nonlinear programming solver NPSOL. IGRF Earth magnetic field model used to simulate magnetic field. The result is verified by comparing to the result of numerical integration. The solution is obtained for the various reorientation maneuver of three axes rigid spacecraft. And the results show that all three axes of rigid spacecraft are controlled effectively only by magnetic torqure.

This paper present an attitude control using quaternions as feedback attitude errors. The Euler's eigenaxis rotation provides the shortest angular path between two attitudes. This eigenaxis rotation can be achieved by using quaternions since quaternions are related with the eigenaxis. The suggested controller uses error quaternions and body angular rates and generates a decoupling control torque that counteracts the natural gyroscopic coupling torque. The momentum dumping strategy using the earth magnetic field is also applied in this paper to unload the angular momentum of the reaction wheels used in the attitude control.

경상분지내에서 가장 뚜렷한 선구조로 나타나는 양산 단층이 지나는 곳으로 생각되는 네 지역을 선정하여 육상자력탐사를 실시하였다. 정성적 분석을 위한 자료처리과정으로는 표준자기장 (IGRF) 보정, 상향 연속과 자극화 변환을 수행하였고, 정량적 해석을 위해서는 수평 2층 지하 지질구조에 있어서 하부층까지의 심도를 모델변수로 하는 비선형 자동 역산법을 적용하였다. 육상자력 이상도의 상향 연속 결과와 동일 지역에서 수행된 항공 자력 탐사자료를 비교한 바에 의하면 두 자료의 유사도가 비교적 높게 나타났다. 네 곳의 탐사지역내에서 양산 단층의 주향은 북동$6^{\circ}-15^{\circ}$의 경향이 우세하게 나타났으며, 단층의 경사는 지역적인 암상의 변화에도 불구하고 수직내지 약간 동쪽 방향의 경사를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 탐사 지역중 가장 북쪽에 위치하는 안강부근의 제 1 탐사지역에서는 단층구조에 의한 자력효과가 화성암의 관입에 의한 효과와 함께 나타난 복잡한 양상을 띠며, 언양부근의 제 2 탐사 지역에서는 단층면을 따라 약 200 - 300 미터의 폭을 갖는 화산성, 혹은 화성 기원의 관입이 일어난 것으로 보인다. 용연 부근의 제 3 지역에서는 다른 지역과는 달리 단층운동에 의한 것으로 생각되는 파쇄대가 약 600 - 700 미터 정도의 폭으로 비교적 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 가장 남쪽에 위치하는 양산부근의 제 4 지역에서는 안산암 시료가 매우 큰 대자율 값을 보이며, 본 연구 결과 이 지역의 단층선은 기존 연구에서 제시된 단층선보다 약 500 미터 정도 동쪽으로 치우쳐 나타난다.

2002년 11월에 발사된 과학로켓 KSR-111에 자세제어를 위한 정보 획득용 3축 Fluxgate 자력계 (AIM: Attitude Information Magnetometer)와 지구 자기장 섭동 측정용 Search-Coil 자력계(SIM: Scientific Investigation Magnetometer)가 탑재되었다. SIM은 지구 자기장 중 약 10～1,000Ha주파수 대의 섭동 현상을 관측한다. AIM을 통해 측정한 지구 자기장의 DC 벡터 성분을 지구 자기장의 기준 모델인 IGRF(International Geomagnetic Reference Field)와 비교하여 로켓의 위치와 비행 상태를 파악하는 프로그램 1과 KSR-Ⅲ에서 측정된 실제 데이터를 이용해 시간에 따른 회전 각의 변화를 알아보는 프로그램 2를 개발하였다. 알고리즘 개발시 자세제어의 요소로서 데이터 처리 속도, 로켓의 비행역학 등을 고려하였고, 이로 인한 오차를 감안하기 위해 최소자승법을 사용하였다. 프로그램 2를 실행하여 얻은 값으로(항우연 자료 비교분석한 결과 내용), 자력계를 로켓의 자세 제 어용으로는 부적합하나 붐(boom)이 장착된 로켓에 탑재할 경우 지구 상충의 자기장을 측정하여 분석할 수 있다. 또한 발사 전 로켓 몸체와 마운트의 자기장을 측정하여 로켓의 자기장'분포를 미리 모델링화 할 경우 자료 처리가 훨씬 용이하다.

Two approximate methods for a cosmic radiation shielding calculation in low earth orbits were developed and assessed. Those are a sectoring method and a chord-length distribution method. In order to simulate a change in cosmic radiation environments along the satellite mission trajectory, IGRF model and AP(E)-8 model were used. When the approximate methods were applied, the geometrical model of satellite structure was approximated as one-dimensional slabs, and a pre-calculated dose-depth conversion function was introduced to simplify the dose calculation process. Verification was performed with mission data of KITSAT-1 and the calculated results were also compared with detailed 3-dimensional calculation results using Monte Carlo calculation. Dose results from the approximate methods were conservatively higher than Monte Carlo results, but were lower than experimental data in total dose rate. Differences between calculation and experimental data seem to come from the AP-8 model, for which it is reported that fluxes of proton are underestimated. We confirmed that the developed approximate method can be applied to commercial satellite shielding calculations. It is also found that commercial products of semi-conductors can be damaged due to total ionizing dose under LEO radiation environment. An intensive shielding analysis should be taken into account when commercial devices are used.

The Earth's magnetic field acquired from KOMPSAT-1's TAM (Three-Axis Magnetometer) between June 19th and 21st 2000 was analyzed. The TAM, one of the KOMPSAT-1's Attitude and Orbit Control Subsystems, plays an important role in determining and controlling the satellite's attitude. This also can provide new insight on the Earth's magnetic field. By transforming the satellite coordinate from ECI to ECEF, spherical coordinate of total magnetic field was achieved. These data were grouped into dusk (ascending) and dawn (descending) data sets, based on their local magnetic times. This partitioning is essential for performing 1-D WCA (Wavenumber Correlation Analysis). Also, this enhances the perception of external fields in the Kompsat-1's TAM magnetic maps that were compiled according to different local. The dusk and dawn data are processed independently and then merged to produce a total field magnetic anomaly map. To extract static and dynamic components, the 1-D and 2-D WCAs were applied to the sub-parallel neighboring tracks and dawn-dusk data sets. The static components were compared with the IGRF, the global spherical harmonic magnetic field model. The static and dynamic components were analyzed in terms of corefield, external, and crustal signals based on their origins.

It is realized that the extraterrestrial matter is in ionized state, plasma, so the matter of this kind behaves as not expected because of its sensitiveness to electric and magnetic fields and its ability to carry electric currents. This kind of subtle change can be observed by an instrument for the magnetic field measurement, the magnetometer usually mounted on the rocket and the satellite, and based on the ground observatory. The magnetometer is a useful instrument for the spacecraft attitude control and the Earth's magnetic field measurements for the scientific purpose. In this paper, we present the preliminary design and the test results of the two onboard magnetometers of KARl's (Korea Aerospace Research Institute) sounding rocket, KSR­III, which will be launched during the period of 2001-02. The KSR-III magnetometers consist of the fluxgate magnetometer, MAG/AIM (Attitude Information Magnetometer) for acquiring the rocket flight attitude information, and of the search-coil magnetometer, MAG/SIM (Scientific Investigation Magnetometer) for the observation of the Earth's magnetic field fluctuations. With the MAG/AIM, the 3-axis attitude information can be acquired by the comparison of the resulting dc magnetic vector fields with the IGRF (International Geomagnetic Reference Field). The Earth's magnetic field fluctuations ranging from 10 to 1,000 Hz can also be observed with the MAG/SIM measurement.

In the summers of 1997 and 1998 and in February of 2000 we made 570 measurements of the ambient geomagnetic field 120 cm above the pavement surface of State Route 130, south of Pahoa, the island of Hawaii using a three-component fluxgate magnetometer. We measured at every 15.2 m (50 feet) interval covering a distance of 6, 310 m (20, 704 ft) where both historic and pre-historic highly magnetic basalt flows underlie. We also collected 197 core samples from eight road cuts, 489 specimens of which were subject to AF demagnetizations at 5 - 10 mT level up to a maximum field of 60 mT. We observed significant inclination anomalies ranging from a minimum of $31^{\circ}$ to a maximum $40^{\circ}$ where a uniform inclination value of $36.7^{\circ}$ (International Geomagnetic Reference Field, IGRF) was expected. Since the mean of the observed inclinations is approximately $35^{\circ}$ we assume that the study area is slightly affected by the magnetic terrain effect to a systematically shallower inclinations for being located in the regionally sloping surface of the southern side of the island (Baag, et al., 1995). We observed inclination anomalies showing wider (spacial) wavelength (160 - 600 m) and higher amplitudes in the historic lava flows area than in the northern pre-historic flows. Our observations imply that preexisting inclination anomalies such as those that we observed would have been interpreted as paleosecular variation (PSV). These inclination anomalies can best be attributed to concealed underground highly magnetic dikes, channel type lava flows, on-and-off hydrothermal activities through fissure-like openings, etc. Both the within- and between-site dispersions of natural remanent magnetization (NRM) are largest (up to ${\pm}7^{\circ}$) above the flows of 1955, while the area of pre-historic flows in the northern part of the study area exhibit the smallest dispersion. Nevertheless, mean inclinations of each historic flow of 1955 and 1790 are almost identical to that of the corresponding present field, whereas mean of NRM (after AF demagnetization) inclinations for each of the four pre-historic lava flow units is twelve to thirteen degrees lower than the present field inclination. We observed three cases of very large inclination variations from within a single flow, the best fitting curves of which are linear, second and third order polynomials each from within a single flow, whereas no present field variations are observed. This phenomena can be attributed to the notion that local magnetic anomalies on the surface of an active volcano are not permanent, but are transient. Therefore we believe that local magnetic anomalies of an active volcano may be constantly modified due to on going subsurface injections and circulations of hot material and also due to wide spacial and temporal distribution of highly magnetic basaltic flows that will constantly modify the topography which will in turn modify the local ambient geomagnetic field (Baag, et al., 1995). Our observations bring into question the general reliability of PSV data inferred from volcanic rocks, because on-going various geologic and geophysical activities associated with active volcano would continuously deflect and modify the ambient geomagnetic field.
