  • 본 논문에서는 반작용휠 미소진동시험 결과 및 유한요소모델 기반 광기계해석 통합모델을 이용해 영상품질저하 예측을 실시하고 해석결과를 바탕으로 기준 회전수에서 영상품질관점에서 최적의 반작용휠 배치조합을 찾는 것을 목적으로 한다. 위성은 적절한 기동성능을 위하여 여러 개의 반작용휠을 장착하는데 반작용휠에서 발생하는 미소진동은 위성영상품질 열화에 원인이 된다. 같은 반작용휠이라도 제조과정상 발생하는 제품의 진동특성차이가 있으며 이를 반영한 반작용휠의 배치설계는 최종 위성영상 성능품질 열화를 최소화시킬 수 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 모든 반작용휠의 배치상태를 선정하고 이에 따른 영상품질 열화해석을 실시하여 최소의 열화가 일어나는 반작용휠 배치조합을 찾아내었다.

  • The necessity for the precise time synchronization of measurement data from multiple sensors is widely recognized in the field of global positioning system/inertial navigation system (GPS/INS) integration. Having precise time synchronization is critical for achieving high data fusion performance. The limitations and advantages of various time synchronization scenarios and existing solutions are investigated in this paper. A criterion for evaluating synchronization accuracy requirements is derived on the basis of a comparison of the Kalman filter innovation series and the platform dynamics. An innovative time synchronization solution using a counter and two latching registers is proposed. The proposed solution has been implemented with off-the-shelf components and tested. The resolution and accuracy analysis shows that the proposed solution can achieve a time synchronization accuracy of 0.1 ms if INS can provide a hard-wired timing signal. A synchronization accuracy of 2 ms was achieved when the test system was used to synchronize a low-grade micro-electromechanical inertial measurement unit (IMU), which has only an RS-232 data output interface.

  • Landsat TM 위성영상을 이용하여 전라북도 줄포만 간석지의 미지형을 무감독분류의 ISODATA 기법으로서 분석한 결과 mudflat, mixed flat, sandflat 의 3지형으로 분류되었다. 각각의 미지형들은 퇴적물 입도와 지형에 있어서 상이한 특성을 나타내었으며, mudflat은 내만쪽에 위치하고 snadflat은 만의 입구 그리고 mixedflat은 그 사이에 각각 분포하였다. 각 지역의 지형특성으로는 2m 내외의 갯골이 평탄면 사이에 분포하는 mudflat과 평균기복이 10cm 이하로서 아주 평탄한 지형으로 물결무늬가 발달한 sandflat 그리고 이 양자의 중간형태를 취하는 mixedflat 으로 구분되었다. 아울러 Landsat TM의 7개의 밴드중에서 밴드 5와 7이 간석지의 미지형분류, 밴드4는 육지와 간석지의 분류 그리고 밴드 3은 해면과 간석지의 분류에 각각 효율적임이 밝혀졌다.

  • X-band antenna has been widely used to effectively transmit the high resolution image data from the observation satellite to the ground station. To achieve above mission, X-band antenna is mainly composed of the 2-axis gimbal system using stepping motors and gears. However, the micro-vibration induced by the stepping motor actuation and the imperfect gear teeth alignment during this on-orbit operation is the main source of image quality degradation. In this paper, X-band antenna combined with a blade gear for micro-vibration isolation was suggested and investigated. The structural safety of the blade gear with low rotational stiffness was confirmed by structure analysis based on the derived torque budget. The isolation performance of the X-band antenna with the blade gear was verified through micro-vibration measurement test using the dedicated micro-vibration measurement device proposed in this study.

  • 기술의 발전은 소형화, 집적화, 그리고 경량화를 가능하게 하였고, 기존의 중 대형 인공위성이 수행하던 임무를 소형 인공위성이 대체할 수 있게 하였다. 소형 인공위성의 수요가 증가함에 따라, 소형 인공위성의 정확한 자세 및 위치의 제어를 위한 미소 추력기의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 레이저 삭마 미소 추력기는 넓은 추력 범위와 낮은 단일 임펄스, 그리고 입사 레이저 에너지 대비 높은 모멘텀을 보여주어, 소형 인공위성의 새로운 추력기 후보로 고려되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 레이저 삭마 미소 추력기의 개요를 설명하고, 최근 연구 동향을 소개한다.

  • The aerosol content dynamics in a virtual system were investigated. The outcome was extended to monitor the mean concentration diffusion of aerosols in a predefined macro and micro scale. The data set used were wind data set from the automatic weather station; satellite data set from Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer aerosol index and multi-angle imaging spectroradiometer; ground data set from Aerosol robotic network. The maximum speed of the macro scale (West Africa) was less than 4.4 m/s. This low speed enables the pollutants to acquire maximum range of about 15 km. The heterogeneous nature of aerosols layer in the West African atmosphere creates strange transport pattern caused by multiple refractivity. It is believed that the multiple refractive concepts inhibit aerosol optical depth data retrieval. It was also discovered that the build-up of the purported strange transport pattern with time has enormous potential to influence higher degrees of climatic change in the long term. Even when the African Easterly Jet drives the aerosols layer at about 10 m/s, the interacting layers of aerosols are compelled to mitigate its speed to about 4.2 m/s (macro scale level) and boost its speed to 30 m/s on the micro scale level. Mean concentration diffusion of aerosols was higher in the micro scale than the macro scale level. The minimum aerosol content dynamics for non-decaying, logarithmic decay and exponential decay particulates dispersion is given as 4, 1.4 and 0 respectively.

  • Micro catalytic reactors are alternative propulsion device that can be used on a nano satellite. When used with a monopropellant, $H_2O_2$, a micro catalytic reactor needs only one supply system as the monopropellant reacts spontaneously on contact with catalyst and releases heat without external ignition, while separate supply lines for fuel and oxidizer are needed for a bipropellant rocket engine. Additionally, $H_2O_2$ is in liquid phase at room temperature, eliminating the burden of storage for gaseous fuel and carburetion of liquid fuel. In order to design a micro catalytic reactor, an appropriate catalyst material must be selected. Considering the safety concern in handling the monopropellants and reaction performance of catalyst, we selected hydrogen peroxide at volume concentration of 70% and perovskite redox catalyst of lantanium cobaltate doped with strondium. Perovskite catalysts are known to have superior reactivity in reduction-oxidation chemical processes. In particular, lantanium cobaltate has better performance in chemical reactions involving oxygen atom exchange than other perovskite materials. In the present study, a process to prepare perovskite type catalyst, $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}CoO_3$, and measurement of its propellant decomposition performance in a test reactor are described.

  • Micro-vibration induced by on-board equipments such as fly-wheel and cryogenic cooler with mechanical moving parts affects the image quality of high-resolution observation satellite. Micro-vibration isolation system has been widely used for enhancing the pointing performance of observation satellites. In general, the micro-vibration isolation system requires a launch locking mechanism additionally to guarantee the structural safety of mission payloads supported by the isolation system with low stiffness under launch environment. In this study, we propose a passive launch and on-orbit vibration isolation system using shape memory alloy mesh washers for the micro-vibration isolation of spaceborne compressor, which does not require the additional launch locking mechanism. The basic characteristics of the isolator were measured in static and free vibration tests of the isolator, and a simple equivalent model of the isolator was proposed. The effectiveness of the isolator design in a launch environment was demonstrated through sine vibration, random vibration and shock tests.
