The on-board telemetry system of KSLV-1 transmits telemetry signal for the launch vehicle and satellite to ground telemetry system in real time. In ground telemetry system, antenna system acquires telemetry signals and transfers these to data processing system. Data processing system processes and recordes telemetry data and distributes it to each mission operator in order to monitor it the operation goes well or not. This document describes the configurations and functions of data processing system designed for efficient and appropriate processing of telemetry data.

The line-telemetry data processing system is necessary for monitoring the status of each onboard systems of KSLV-I upper stage during the ground tests and launch preparation. The mission of line-telemetry system is to provide reference telemetry data and to monitor the status of upper stage. The line-telemetry data processing system consists of a PCM acquisition/processing server, a system management server, and 9 monitoring consoles. In this paper, we will describe the overview of onboard remote measurement system, the design of the line-telemetry data processing system, anomaly setup information for indicating alarm signal in case of abnormal occurrence, and the result of the ground test and flight test.

Telemetry data is very important for the Launch Mission and Flight Safety Control during the Space Launch. In Naro Space Center, several telemetry stations such as a small station in the NARO space center, two stations in Jeju and a downrange station on a ship are deployed for the stable acquisition/receiving of the telemetry signals. In this paper, the Link Margin and Reliability for the telemetry are analyzed to evaluate the probability of the signal receiving of each station. Even though the proper analysis is to using the on-board EIRP(Effective Isotropic Radiation Power) values in the direction of the ground station considering the predicted flight trajectory and the locations of the stations, the global EIRP of 95% spatial coverage has been used for the analysis, due to the limitation of the available data.

Pyro-shock measurement system in launch vehicle is necessary to validate structural robustness and to prepare environmental qualification criteria for launch vehicle systems. This paper describes design, development and function test of prototype pyro-shock recorder to be employed on KSLV-I in the near future. Due to the limitation of telemetry transmission rate, pyro-shock recorder acquires and stores the shock sensor data with high sampling rate in short period and sends the data to the KSLV-I telemetry system with lower data rate. Signal conditioning in pyro-shock recorder is designed to enhance signal-to-noise ratio through proper placement of anti-aliasing filter.

In order to ensure the individual and mutual performances among the telemetry system, tracking system, flight termination system, GPS, and inertial navigation & guidance system which are installed in the KSLV-I 2nd stage and ground equipment of the Naro space center, flight test using a light airplane is required. Since the high degree of test efficiency is fulfilled through the minute plan and analysis about selection of the equipment which are applicable to the test, harness, operation strategy, and antenna installation. KSLV-I communication environment and flight profile should be precisely taken into account during the flight test. In this document, overall aspect of the KSLV-I 2nd stage equipment specification, a rack for the installation, harness, the airplane specification, and flight route which are required for the effective flight test are presented.

Recently, interests about frame error reduction method, using multiple PCM data which are received at several ground stations, are increasing. Simple data merge method is already applied to data processing system at Naro Space Center and have been used in the first and the second flight test analysis of KSLV-I. This paper is focused on error reduction with error correcting merge algorithm and time-delayed data correction algorithm. Result of applying the proposed algorithms to the flight test data shows 1.32% improvement in error rate, compared to simple-data-merge method. It is considered that presented algorithms could be very useful in generating various telemetry merge data.
