  • Number of components and payload systems installed in satellites were found to be exposed to various disturbance sources such as the reaction wheel assembly, the control moment gyro, coolers, and others. A micro-level of vibration can introduce jitter problems into an optical payload system and cause significant degradation of the image quality. Moreover, the prediction of on-orbit vibration effects on the performance of optical payloads during the development process is always important. However, analyzing interactions between subsystems and predicting the vibration level of the payloads is extremely difficult. Therefore, this paper describes the analytical and experimental approach to microvibration effects on satellite optical payload performance with integrated jitter analysis framework, micro vibration emulator and satellite structure testbed.

  • This paper presents the structural design of a planar synthetic aperture radar (SAR) antenna applied to a microsatellite. For micro-satellite applications, the SAR antenna structure must be lightweight, flat, and designed to withstand the launch environment. To satisfy these conditions, our novel antenna structure was designed using aluminium (AL) alloy. Structural analysis was performed for quasi-static load, random vibration, and shock load to verify its robustness in the launch environment, and the results are presented here.

  • A 2-axis gimbal system is one of main disturbance sources affecting on image jitter response of a satellite. The gimbal system can be rotated on its azimuth and elevation axes, resulting in variation of its moment of inertia and structural modes, so that generates non-linear vibration characteristics. In order to estimate the jitter response, it is an indispensable process to characterize micro-vibration disturbance of the 2-axis gimbal system. In the present research, the vibration characteristics of the 2-axis gimbal system was investigated with respect to the types of stepping motors. The micro-vibration tests were performed for 2-phase and 5-phase stepping motors. The test results show that the disturbance can be reduced with vibration attenuation ratio of 60% by replacing the 2-phase stepping motor with the 5-phase one.

  • Purpose: This study aims to map the spatial distribution of poverty using nighttime light satellite images as a proxy indicator of economic activities and infrastructure distribution in D.I Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Research design, data, and methodology: This study uses official poverty statistics (National Socio-economic Survey (SUSENAS) and Poverty Database 2015) to compare satellite imagery's ability to identify poor urban areas in D.I Yogyakarta. National Socioeconomic Survey (SUSENAS), as poverty statistics at the macro level, uses expenditure to determine the poor in a region. Poverty Database 2015 (BDT 2015), as poverty statistics at the micro-level, uses asset ownership to determine the poor population in an area. Pearson correlation is used to identify the correlation among variables and construct a Support Vector Regression (SVR) model to estimate the poverty level at a granular level of 1 km x 1 km. Results: It is found that macro poverty level and moderate annual nighttime light intensity have a Pearson correlation of 74 percent. It is more significant than micro poverty, with the Pearson correlation being 49 percent in 2015. The SVR prediction model can achieve the root mean squared error (RMSE) of up to 8.48 percent on SUSENAS 2020 poverty data.Conclusion: Nighttime light satellite imagery data has potential benefits as alternative data to support regional poverty mapping, especially in urban areas. Using satellite imagery data is better at predicting regional poverty based on expenditure than asset ownership at the micro-level. Light intensity at night can better describe the use of electricity consumption for economic activities at night, which is captured in spending on electricity financing compared to asset ownership.

  • 본 논문에서는 미소진동 영향성 예측을 위한 인공위성 유한요소모델 보정에 관해 기술한다. 최근 지구 저궤도에 발사되는 상업용 지구관측위성의 경우, 수요자의 요구로 인해 주어진 시간 안에 다양한 지역의 많은 영상을 공급해야 한다. 이를 구현하기 위해 고용량휠, 다축 김발을 탑재한 안테나 등 다양한 구동기를 사용한다. 그러나 이러한 구동기는 작동 시 미소진동을 유발할 수 있으며, 이러한 미소진동은 매우 작기는 하지만 지구관측 탑재체를 가진하여 영상품질을 저감시킬 수 있다. 이러한 미소진동에 의한 영향성을 살펴보기 위해서 유한요소모델과 미소진동원 시험결과를 결합한 연성해석을 실시하며, 해석에 앞서 유한요소모델 보정을 실시한다. 보정 전후의 주파수 차이, 모드형상 상관관계, 주파수응답함수 상관관계를 비교하여 개선된 유한요소모델의 품질을 평가하였다.

  • Marine fisheries are important natural resources and must be maintained, especially fish species that are important sources of food. Despite the increase in stocking programs to maintain fisheries with artificially raised fish, the genetic impact stocking has on the wild fry population has not been addressed. Genetic variation in rock bream, Oplegnathus fasciatus, within and between wild-caught parents and the $F_1$ generation produced by them in 1 day was assayed using nine highly variable micro satellite markers. The nine micro satellite loci used in this study displayed diverse polymorphisms, and in total, 98 different alleles were observed over all loci. Differences in genetic variability of the $F_1$ offspring compared to their wild-caught parents (brood stock) were observed in terms of allele frequency, gene diversity, and heterozygosity. Although the $F_1$ generation of rock bream was missing 16% of the micro satellite alleles, no significant reduction was found in mean heterozygosity of the $F_1$ population compared to the brood stock. Eight of nine loci showed significant Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) deviations in the $F_1$ population, while the brood stock deviated from HWE at three micro satellite loci (KOF85, KOF360 and KOF374). These deviations showed mostly a deficit of heterozygotes. Our results provide evidence for genetic differences in the $F_1$ hatchery offspring compared to their wild-caught parents and reinforce the need for a series of consecutive egg collections to avoid the loss of genetic variability. This also further underscores the importance of monitoring genetic variability of hatchery populations for the conservation of natural rock bream resources.

  • 관측위성에 탑재되는 2축 짐벌식 X-band 안테나는 위성의 자세 및 궤도 운동과는 무관하게 지상국을 지향하여 광학 탑재체로부터 획득한 대용량의 영상정보를 지상으로 송신하는 임무를 수행한다. 하지만, 상기 X-band 안테나는 지상 안테나로 지향을 위한 모터 구동시 미소진동을 유발하며, 이와 같은 미소진동은 고해상도 관측위성의 영상품질을 저하시키는 주된 요인으로 작용한다. 따라서 관측위성의 임무수행동안 목적하는 영상정보 획득을 위하여, 안테나의 모터 구동에 따라 수반되는 미소진동 절연이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 상기 안테나의 미소진동 문제를 극복하기 위해 2축 짐벌식 X-band 안테나의 방위각 단에 장착되는 초탄성 SMA 블레이드 기어를 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 SMA블레이드 기어의 차세대중형위성 X-band 안테나 적용 가능성 검토를 위해 회전방향 정하중시험을 통해 기본특성을 확인하였으며, 가속수명시험 및 온도특성시험을 수행하였다. 또한 미소 진동측정시험을 수행하여 상기 SMA 기어의 미소진동 절연성능 및 기어의 설계 유효성을 입증하였다.

  • Magnetic actuation utilizes the mechanic torque that is the result of interaction of the current in a coil with an external magnetic field. A main obstacle is, however, that torques can only be produced perpendicular to the magnetic field. In addition, there is uncertainty in the Earth magnetic field models due to the complicated dynamic nature of the field. Also, the magnetic hardware and the spacecraft can interact, causing both to behave in undesirable ways. This actuation principle has been a topic of research since earliest satellites were launched. Earlier magnetic control has been applied for nutation damping for gravity gradient stabilized satellites, and for velocity decrease for satellites without appendages. The three axes of a micro-satellite can be stabilized by using an electromagnetic actuator which is rigidly mounted on the structure of the satellite. The actuator consists of three mutually-orthogonal air-cored coils on the skin of the satellite. The coils are excited so that the orbital frame magnetic field and body frame magnetic field coincides i.e. to make the Euler angles to zero. This can be done using a Neural Network controller trained by PD controller data and driven by the difference between the orbital and body frame magnetic fields.

  • The primary goal of any communication spacecraft is to provide communication in variety of frequency bands based on mission requirements within the Indian mainland. Some of the spacecrafts operating in S-band utilizes a 6m or larger aperture Unfurlable Antenna (UFA for S-band links and provides coverage through five or more S-band spot beams over Indian mainland area. The Unfurlable antenna is larger than the satellite and so the antenna is stowed during launch. Upon reaching the orbit, the antenna is deployed using motors. The deployment status of any deployment mechanism will be monitored and verified by the telemetered values of micro-switch position before the start of deployment, during the deployment and after the completion of the total mechanism. In addition to these micro switches, a camera onboard will be used for capturing still images during primary and secondary deployments of UFA. The proposed checkout system is realized for validating the performance of the onboard camera as part of Integrated Spacecraft Testing (IST) conducted during payload checkout operations. It is designed for acquiring the payload data of onboard camera in real-time, followed by archiving, processing and generation of images in near real-time. This paper presents the architecture, design and implementation features of the acquisition, processing and Image generation system for Camera onboard spacecraft. Subsequently this system can be deployed in missions wherever similar requirement is envisaged.
