The tracking radar systems in NARO space center are used in order to acquire the TSPI (Time, Space, and Position Information) data of the launch vehicle. The tracking radar produce the measurements of tracked targets in the radar-centered coordinate system. When the tracking radar is in the Cartesian/Polar tracking mode, the state vector data is sent in radar-centered Cartesian/Polar coordinate system to RCC. RCC also send the slaving data in Test Range coordinate system to the tracking radar. So, the tracking radars have to transform the slaving data in Test Range coordinate system into in radar-centered coordinate system. In this study, we described the coordinate transformation between radar-centered coordinate system and Test Range coordinated system.

In the launch mission, mission control systems and tracking systems need time synchronization for data monitoring and data analysis. There are several standards for time synchronization and an adequate standard is selected according to the requirement of time accuracy and cost among time synchronization standards. Oscillators are used to maintain time accuracy. There are some kinds of oscillators with diverse characteristics and an adequate oscillator can be adopted according to time accuracy. In this paper, we will specify characteristics of several oscillators and standards generally used for time synchronization. And we will also introduce TSDN(time synchronization and display network) for time synchronization in Naro Space Center.

Earth to Mars ballistic mission opportunities from Naro Space Center are studied. Determining ballistic mission opportunities can be divided into two major parts, i.e. the launch window and the daily launch window determination. At the launch window determination parts, Porkchop diagrams of Earth launch C3 magnitude, total mission duration, declination of $V_{\infty}$ vector at the Earth launch, and declination & right ascension of $V_{\infty}$ vector at the Mars arrival are examined. The location of launch site and rotation effects of the Earth are considered during the daily launch window determination parts. Using Lambert method, various Porkchop diagrams of launching in 2027 are examined for example. The daily launch window of Naro Space Center at that year was checked to verify the launch possibility by comparing with the Kennedy Space Center.

A gas deflector cooling system plays an important role in the suppression of shock wave generated during the ignition of a launch vehicle engine. Also, this system decrease a large vibration of damaging the payload and structure of the launch vehicle. The gas deflector cooling system in the launch pad of NARO space center was constructed to directly inject water into the plume of the launch vehicle engine. The flight test result of NARO space launch vehicle showed that this method had a good performance on the viewpoint of cooling the gas deflector.

The Korean launch vehicle (KSLV-II) has used commercial aviation jet fuel, Jet A-1. Fuel specifications were introduced from Jet A-1 specifications. However, specifications and inspection methods of moisture and particulate matters were changed digitally for convenience and accuracy. To control fuel quality, a fuel management system was established to determine suitability by inspecting it at each stage of warehousing, storage, and application. An analysis room was then established at the Naro Space Center. The possibility of fuel mixing was blocked by warehousing inspection. Long-term component changes were then observed by storage inspection. Finally, suitability of the engine test or the launch vehicle test was determined through application inspection. Long-term analysis verified that the space center's fuel oil storage method was appropriate and that the quality management system was able to handle hundreds of engine tests and several flight tests.

We had research to conduct interrelationships between sensors using postprocessing analysis with the Fuzzy-Kalman Filtering Auto-Correlation about Real Time Simulator data of the NaroSC LCS in case of a fully blind situation scenario. The conducted interrelations are same harmony with relations in scenario. We had analyzed signals of sensors reverse-using a optimization character of Fuzzy-Kalman Filter. As our research conclusion, We had recognized possibilities of signal processing about the KSLV-1, on-board payloads, general equipments of ground support which apply to multi sensor systems.

This paper presents a high-performance dual-circularly polarized feed employing a dielectric-filled circular waveguide. Novel features are incorporated in the proposed feed, such as a dielectric rod radiator for high gain and good impedance matching; dual quarter-wave chokes for low axial ratio over wide angles and for low back radiation; an integrated septum polarizer; and two end-launch-type coaxial-to-waveguide transitions. The proposed feed shows excellent performance at 5.0 GHz to 5.2 GHz.

Ground Complex, which is located at Naro Space Center, consists of Assembly Complex(AC) and Launch Complex(LC) which is necessary for successful launch of KSLV-I(NARO). AC consists of Assembly/Testing Building(ATB), Payload Processing Building(PPB), Kick Motor Building(KMB). The purpose of AC is accepting of KSLV-I components, testing, checkout, assembly(disassembly) of the launch vehicle(LV), readiness for transferring LV to LC, accepting of integrated Launch Vehicle(ILV) in case of launch cancellation and short/long time storage, and so on. Qualification tests(QT) for the total system at AC are carried out to check hardware used for operations with first stage unit mockup, upper stage unit Mockup and integrated mockup(GTV). The qualification tests is carried out according to program and procedures of QT. By course of this process, AC is certificated that all the systems and facilities of AC are guaranteed by the fulfillment of technological operations envisioned in the program of qualification tests during the work with the mock-up.

Telemetry ground station use very high gain directional antenna systems that are sensitive to interference from other RF communication systems, Without appropriate interference protection, these systems could be severely impacted or even rendered useless for mission support. In ECC, we suggested ans interference analysis method between LTE-TDD system and telemetry ground station using 2.3GHz. In this paper, based on the interference analysis scenario considered in Electronic Communication Committee, We have derived mutual coexistence separation distance between telemetry ground station and LTE-TDD system(Base station, User equipment) in Spatial domain.
