인공위성 전력계의 설계 및 분석은 위성 전체의 무게, 크기 및 성능을 결정하는 중요 변수로 작용한다. 위성체의 모든 타 부분체들은 전력계 설계의 영향을 받으며 특히 발사체 선정, 열 제어계 설계 및 구조계 설계의 경우 전력계의 성능 및 제한 조건 등 전력계 설계 결과에 매우 큰 영향을 받는다. 이 논문에서는 현재 국내에서 지속적으로 개발되고 있는 저궤도 위성의 전력계 설계를 위한 새로운 프로그램을 소개하고 타 위성의 설계 자료를 이용한 개발된 프로그램의 성능 실험 결과를 기술하였다. 실험 결과 제안된 전력계 설계 프로그램은 전력계 사이징 뿐 아니라 궤도상에서의 전력계 성능을 예측하는데도 사용할 수 있음을 보였다.

The role of Electrical Power Subsystem (EPS) is to generate a power and distribute it to the electrical devices for the system operation. For on-orbit operation of cube satellite, it is also necessary to supply power to on-board mission devices as commercial satellite does. Recently, commercial EPS products dedicated for the cube satellite application has been developed and widely used for the power subsystem design. In this paper, a permanent magnet attitude stabilization method without external power has been introduced because it has advantage from power consumption point of view and the EPS design of cube satellite by applying the commercial EPS products has been introduced and investigated. This paper also deals with the specification of the commercial EPS products for the beginner of the cube satellite design.

정지궤도위성은 다수의 탑재체를 하나의 위성체 플랫폼에 탑재하고 2010년 6월 26일에 발사되었다. 전력계는 태양 및 식 기간 상태에서 완전 조절 $50V_{DC}$ 전력 버스를 제공한다. 위성에서 요구되는 전력은 태양전지 배열기 윙에서 생성되며, 에너지는 192.5Ah 용량의 리튬-이온 배터리에 저장된다. 본 논문은 전력계의 성능 평가를 향후 정지궤도위성 설계에 활용하기 위해 전력계의 중요 설계 변수들을 선정하고, 지상에서 시험 결과와 궤도상에서 운영 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 설계로부터 궤도상에서 운영 결과까지의 성능 평가를 통해 전력계는 중요한 성능감소 없이 정상적으로 동작되고 있음을 입증하였다.

The Electric Power Subsystem (EPS) is one of the most critical systems on any satellite because nearly every subsystem requires power. This makes the choice of power systems the most important task facing satellite designers. The main purpose of the Satellite EPS is to provide continuous, regulated and conditioned power to all the satellite subsystems. It has to withstand radiation, thermal cycling and vacuums in hostile space environments, as well as subsystem degradation over time. The EPS power characteristics are determined by both the parameters of the system itself and by the satellite orbit. After satellite separation from the launch vehicle (LV) to its orbit, in almost all situations, the satellite subsystems (attitude determination and control, communication and onboard computer and data handling (OBC&DH)), take their needed power from a storage battery (SB) and solar arrays (SA) besides the consumed power in the EPS management device. At this point (separation point, detumbling mode), the satellite's angular motion is high and the orientation of the solar arrays, with respect to the Sun, will change in a non-uniform way, so the amount of power generated by the solar arrays will be affected. The objective of this research is to select satellite EPS component types, to estimate solar array illumination parameters and to determine the efficiency of solar arrays during both detumbling and normal operation modes.

This paper proposes an voltage and reactive power control methodology, which is motivated towards implementation in the korea power system. The main voltage control devices are capacitor banks, reactor banks and LTC transformers. Effects of control devices are evaluated by local subsystem's cost computations. This local subsystem is decided by 'Tier' and 'Electrical distance' in the whole system. The control objective at present is to keep the voltage profile within constraints with minimum switching cost. A robust control strategy is proposed to make the control feasible and optimal for a set of power-flow cases that may occur important event from system. This studies conducted for IEEE 39-bus low and high voltage contingency cases indicate that the proposed control methodology is much more effective than PSS/E simulation tool in deciding switching of capacitor and reactor banks.

EGSE is used to check out satellite payload during the development prior to launch. The EGSE represented in this paper is a test system for Ka band communication transponder of COMS. The EGSE consist of two subsystems as CTS subsystem and PCTS subsystem. Communication Test subsystem (CTS) performs satellite transponder RF performance testing, data analysis and trending. Most of transponder RF performances are automatically tested by the CTS subsystem. Power, Command & Telemetry subsystem (PCTS) monitor telemetry messages from the transponder and send tele-commands to satellite transponder for the configuration change. PCTS also provide simulated S/C power to the transponder during the ground validation testing. The EGSE test functions are verified by the transponder simulator testing and will be used for the flight model transponders testing.

Vibrational characteristics of coupled beam ＆ plate system are considered on simple system, which consists of plates(2-subsystem) and beams(4-subsystem), using experimental statistical energy analysis(ESEA). First, damping and coupling loss factors of the system are determined by power injection method (PIM). Then, energy distribution of all the subsystem is estimated from the power balance equation. Finally, these quantities are compared with measured energy. The correlation of measured and estimated results for the sample problem is reasonably good.

STEP Cube Lab (Cube Laboratory for Space Technology Experimental Project) is a 1U standardized pico-class satellite. Its main mission objective is an on-orbit verification of five fundamental core space technologies. For assuring a successful missions of the STEP Cube Lab with five payloads, electrical power subsystem (EPS) shall sufficiently provide an electrical power to payloads and bus systems of the satellite during an entire mission life. In this study, a design process of EPS system was introduced including power budget analysis considering a mission orbit and various mission modes of the satellite. In conclusion, adequate EPS hardware in compliance with design requirements were selected. The effectiveness and mission capability of EPS architecture design were confirmed through an energy balance analysis (EBA).

위성 운용 중 발생할 수 있는 오류에 대한 대비를 고장 관리 설계라고 한다. 고장 관리 설계는 위성에 이상 현상이 나타나는 경우 감지하고 고립시키며, 지상에서 위성과 접속한 이후 오류 사항을 파악하고 대응책을 마련할 때까지 위성을 안전한 상태로 유지하는 기능을 포함한다. 안전 모드 운용은 정상 운용과는 다르게 비행 소프트웨어를 탑재한 탑재 컴퓨터와 전력 제어 및 분배 장치 주관 하에 지상국의 접속 없이 이루어진다. 오류 발생 시 고장 관리 설계에 따라 자동화된 동작이 이루어지는 만큼 지상 시험 단계에서 고장 관리 로직 및 관련 하드웨어가 설계된 대로 동작하는지를 철저하게 검증해야 한다. 또한 실제와 유사한 오류를 위성에 손상 없이 인가해야 한다. 고장 관리 설계 검증시험은 위성을 구성하는 다양한 부분체에 대해서 수행되나 본 논문에서는 저궤도 위성의 비행 모델을 대상으로 수행된 자세제어계와 전력계 시험의 설계에 대해 서술하고 결과에 대해 정리하였다.

SEA is a useful tool to predict noise and vibration response in high frequency region but has a weak point not to be able to express modal behavior in low frequency region. For a structure with middle subsystem having relatively higher modal density than excited subsystem and receiving subsystem, we studied the possibility that the modal behavior of receiving subsystem can express by considering finite mobility of excited subsystem. For a simply three-coupled beams which is chosen for feasibility study, the response of receiving beam was investigated with varying the length & area moment of inertia of middle beam. In case that the middle beam has relatively higher modal density than exciting beam, the application to finite mobility of excited beam led to express modal behavior of receiving beam relatively well.
