The research trends and major technologies of the divert attitude control system(DACS), which is the core of the anti-missile system, are described. The operating concept and characteristics according to the fuel used are summarized. The characteristics of typical weapon system applying solid(SM3 Block IB/IIA) and liquid(THAAD) fuels were discussed. In the future, it will be necessary to study various types of DACS in the strategic concept of the defense weapon system.

Korean multi-propulsion system consists of a synchronous alternator driven by a gas turbine driving synchronous alternator coupled to a rectifier - DC link - DC/DC converter and traction system based on modification of the G7 high-speed train. The simulation modules include turbine engine system, alternator, rectifier, DC/DC converter and power management module. Simulation for the multi-propulsion system such as a modular is presented in order to confirm the system stability for loads with uncertain input impedances and control loop speeds. This paper deals with various simulation modules with a specific control loop to help the development of the real lame-scaled system.

Electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid EVs (HEV) are designed and manufactured by GM, Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai motors. The propulsion system design process for EV requires integrating subsystem designs into an overall system model to maximize the performance of a given propulsion architecture. Therefore, high-power density and high-torque density are important attributes required for EV applications. To improve torque and power density, propulsion motors are designed for saturation during high-torque operation. The nonlinearity associated with core saturation is modeled by incorporating the cross-coupling inductances, which also behave nonlinearly. Furthermore, in EV environments, the battery is directly connected to the DC link, and the battery changes depending on the state of charge. It will be onerous if as many optimal current commands as different $V_{dc}$ were made. This paper presents the optimal current commands in the various operating condition and the current control technique in EV environments.

The currently developed propulsion system(PS) is composed of propellant tank, valves, thrusters, interconnecting line assembly and thermal hardwares to prevent propellant freezing in the space environment. Comprehensive engineering analyses in the structure, thermal, flow and plume fields are performed to evaluate main design parameters and to verify their suitabilities concurrently at the design phase. The integrated PS has undergone a series of acceptance tests to verify workmanship, performance, and functionality prior to spacecraft level integration. After all the processes of assembly, integration and test are completed, the PS is integrated with the satellite bus system successfully. At present, the severe environmental tests have been carried out to evaluate functionality performances of satellite bus system. This paper summarizes an overall development process of monopropellant propulsion system for the attitude and orbit control of LEO(Low Earth Orbit) observation satellite from the design engineering up to the integration and test.

In order to inject satellites into a target orbit, launch vehicles should have a precise attitude and control system capable of controlling three axises of pitch, yaw and roll. For launch vehicles, there are two types of attitude control system currently in popular use; the first one is a cold gas method, and the other is a liquid propulsion system using a single and dual property propellant. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of thrust control system using said propellant, thereby providing for a rationale for its application to the upper stages of launch vehicles, in terms of the simplicity of the system, economics of structure and operation.

It had been almost a half century since Apollo Mission was ended. However, in these days, a lot of researches are being conducted for restoration and making improvements in technologies used in Saturn V rocket's development. This study reviews the first stage of Saturn V rocket(S-IC), from development history to technologies in various subsystems such as engine purge system, POGO suppression system, hydraulic and pneumatic control system, propellant dispersion system, telemetry system and retrorocket system. Understandings of S-IC stage's operation systems would be helpful in understanding of launch vehicle system and reduction of time and cost in future development process.

The study was carried out about the development of the propulsion and the control systems toy Korean High Speed Train. The propulsion system was studied to run the maximum operating speed of 350km/h. The capacity of the main equipments is decided for the train to run the maximum operating speed of 350km/h with one Ike of 2 power cars, 4 motorized trailers and 14 intermediate trailers. The control system was studied to two parts the supply and the control of high and low voltages used at train. The performance study of control system would be continued for interface with other systems.

In this paper, a mathematical pressure dynamics model for a variable thrust solid propulsion system with an electric actuator was derived from the mass conservation of gas. To solve the problem induced by modeling uncertainties in the propellant model and the dead zone of the actuator, a nonlinear pressure controller combined with a nonlinear disturbance observer was designed using a mathematical model of the system. The simulation results showed that the proposed pressure controller could reduce tracking errors compared to another conventional nonlinear controller even in situations where input disturbances were present.

In this study, control schemes are proposed for a propulsion system of TTX(Tilting Train eXpress). In developed traction converter, unity power factor control, compensation method of dc link voltage have been applied. Output current of converter contains harmonic ripple at twice input ac line frequency, which causes a ripple in the dc link voltage so that beatless control is developed in inverter system to reduce the pulsating torque current. This system is verified by the system modelling and prototype test.
