국제적인 차량용 레이더는 22~26GHz 대역을 사용할 수 있도록 규정하고 있으나, 최근 전반적으로 위 주파수대역은 이용을 종료하는 추세이며, 차량의 사각지대 및 보행자 감지용 고해상도 차량용 레이더 도입을 위해 밀리미터파 대역 중 77~81GHz대역의 광대역 레이더로 전환할 예정이다. 그러나 현재 국제적으로 71~275GHz대역은 전파천문우주 연구를 위한 업무로 사용하도록 규정되어 있다. 이에 따라 위 대역의 차량용 레이더와 국내 전파천문업무 사이에 간섭이 있을 것으로 예상되어 간섭영향을 분석하고 보호이격거리를 도출하였다.

Most radio astronomy issues at WRC-03 (World Radiocommunication Conference-03) revolved around satellite downlink allocations, particularly to NGSO (Non-Geostationary Satellite Orbit) satellite systems, in bands adjacent to or close to a radio astronomy frequency band. Out of a total of 50 agenda items, ten were of interest to radio astronomers. This paper provides some details about the important outcome of the radio astronomy related issues at the WRC-03.

In the past, radio astronomers have sought isolation from man-made signals by placing their telescopes in remote locations. These measures may no longer safeguard scientific observations, since NGSO satellite systems, particularly low-Earth orbit (LEO) systems, are usually designed to provide global or wide regional coverage. Further, radio astronomers have historically made their observations in the frequency bands allocated for their use by the member countries of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The science of radio astronomy could be adversely impacted by the deployment of large constellations of new non-geostationary orbiting (NGSO) satellites for telecommunications, navigation and Earth observation, and the proliferation of new, high-power broadcasting and telecommunication satellites in geostationary (GSO) orbits. Radio telescopes are extremely sensitive, and, in certain situations, signals from satellites can overwhelm the signals from astronomical sources. This paper describes the problem in detail and identifies ways to mitigate it without adversely affecting the continued vigorous growth of commercial space-based telecommunications.

We have analyzed the frequency sharing in the range of 71-275 GHz, which was adopted as a main topic of the WARC-2000 at the previous conference WARC-97. Though the technology of the active services has not been fully developed in this frequncy range, the heavy usage of this technology is expected in foreseeable future. To protect the passive services from spurious and out-of-band emissions of active services, realignment of the spectrum between 71 GHz and 275 GHz is strongly required. In addition, some effort should be made to allocate special bands for the radio astronomy service.

WRC-03 was held between 9 June and 4 July 2003 in Geneva, Switzerland. Over 2,200 delegates from 138 ITU Member States attended the Conference. The delegates considered some 2,500 proposals, and over 900 numbered documents related to 50 agenda items. The final output of the Conference consists of 527 pages of new and revised text of the Radio Regulations. This paper provides some details about the outcome of the radio astronomy related issues at the WRC-03 Conference. It is divided into two part: a) Agenda item1.8.2 and b) Agenda item 1.32, related to radio astronomy. Relevant extracts from the Final Acts of WRC-03 are given in the Appendix. Agenda item 1.8.2 was one of the most controversial Agenda Items at WRC-03. Studies were carried out within ITU-R TG 1/7 for the last three years; the results of these studies are summarized in Recommendation ITU-R SM.1633. The Conference adopted a new footnote (5.347A), that calls for the application of Resolution 739 (WRC-03) in the 1452-1492 MHz, 1525-1559 MHz, 1613.8-1626.5 MHz, 2655-2670 MHz, 2670-2690 MHz and 21.4-22.0 GHz bands. Agenda item 1.32 is to consider technical and reglatory provisions concerning the band 37.5-43.5 GHz, in accordance with Resolutions 128 (Rev.WRC-2000) and 84 (WRC-2000). WRC-03 reviewed and adjusted the New footnotes 5.551H and 5.551I cover the protection of radio astronomy observations in the 42.5-43.5 GHz band from unwanted emissions by non-geostationary (5.551H) and geostationary (5.551I) FSS and BSS systems, respectively.

According to the recommendation of International Maritime Organization, the Ministry Of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (MOMAF) of Korea provides the real time Differential Global Positioning System service using maritime radio beacon from 1999. Due to the benefit of DGPS service, the need of this system is increased from various user groups for acquiring the better accuracy and integrity. Therefore, MOMAF has extended their service to inland by installing the additional 6 DGPS stations. This nationwide DGPS service will be fully deployed at 2007. In addition to the extension of service area, MOMAF has a plan to upgrade their nationwide DGPS to High Accuracy Nationwide DGPS (HANDGPS). The planned HANDGPS service of Korea will be a kind of long range RTK or Wide Area RTK techniques to provide under 1m accuracy and start their service from 2009 using the various broadcasting and communication media like as radio beacon, Wibro, Digital Multimedia Broadcasting, High Speed Packet Data Access. The introduction of nationwide DGPS system of Korea and its evolution plan will be addressed in this paper. The research activities related with HANDGPS in Korea is also presented.

초고속 환경에서 대용량 데이터에 대한 안정적 기록 및 효율적인 데이터 접근의 필요성은 갈수록 높아지고 있다. 이와 관련된 기초과학의 한 분야로 방대한 천체 관측 데이터를 생산하는 VLBI(: Very Long Baseline Interferometer)가 있는데 고분해능, 고감도 관측 연구를 수행하기 위해서는 고성능의 데이터 저장 시스템이 요구된다. 하지만 시장에 출시된 대다수 클라우드 기반 스토리지는 일반 IT, 금융, 행정 서비스 지원을 위한 저용량, 복수 스트림의 비정형 데이터에 최적화되어 있기 때문에 빅 스트림 데이터 기록을 위한 최적의 대안이 될 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 이를 극복하기 위한 방안으로 데이터 입출력 처리에 있어 고성능, 동시성에 최적화된 데이터 저장 시스템을 설계하고자 한다. 이를 위해 멀티 코어 CPU 환경에서 libpcap, pf_ring 등의 API 호출을 통해 패킷 입출력 모듈을 구현하였고 외부로부터 유입되는 데이터를 효율적으로 처리할 수 있도록 소프트웨어 RAID(: Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) 기반의 확장성 있는 스토리지를 구축하였다.

The precise orbit determination (POD) of low earth orbiter (LEO) has complied with its required positioning accuracy by the double-differencing of observations between International GNSS Service (IGS) and LEO to eliminate the common clock error of the global positioning system (GPS) satellites and receiver. Using this method, we also have achieved the 1 m positioning accuracy of Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT)-2. However double-differencing POD has huge load of processing the global network of lots of ground stations because LEO turns around the Earth with rapid velocity. And both the centimeter accuracy and the near real time (NRT) processing have been needed in the LEO POD applications--atmospheric sounding or urgent image processing--as well as the surveying. An alternative to differential GPS for high accuracy NRT POD is precise point positioning (PPP) to use measurements from one satellite receiver only, to replace the broadcast navigation message with precise post processed values from IGS, and to have phase measurements of dual frequency GPS receiver. PPP can obtain positioning accuracy comparable to that of differential positioning. KOMPSAT-5 has a precise dual frequency GPS flight receiver (integrated GPS and occultation receiver, IGOR) to satisfy the accuracy requirements of 20 cm positioning accuracy for highly precise synthetic aperture radar image processing and to collect GPS radio occultation measurements for atmospheric sounding. In this paper we obtained about 3-5 cm positioning accuracies using the real GPS data of the Gravity Recover and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites loaded the Blackjack receiver, a predecessor of IGOR. And it is important to reduce the latency of orbit determination processing in the NRT POD. This latency is determined as the volume of GPS measurements. Thus changing the sampling intervals, we show their latency to able to reduce without the precision degradation as the assessment of their precision.

GPS(Global Positioning System)에 있어서 궤도의 정밀도는 응용분야의 결과에 영향을 미치는 매우 중요한 파라미터이다. 따라서 GPS 사용자가 얻는 자료의 정밀도는 기준으로 삼고 있는 위성의 위치 자료를 얼마만큼 신뢰할 수 있느냐에 달려 있는데 이들 위성의 위치 자료는 실시간으로 제공되는 항법메세지에 포함된 방송궤도력에 의존할 경우 실제위치와 약 3~10m의 차이가 난다. 그러나 GPS를 이용하여 100km의 기선거리를 수mm의 오차로 측정하기 위해서는 방송궤도력보다 실제 궤도에 매우 가까운 정밀 궤도력을 사용하여야 하는데 이 정밀 궤도력은 오차가 수cm정도로서 현재 이러한 수준의 정밀 궤도력을 계산할 수 있는 능력을 보유한 곳은 전 세계 약 7개 기관이다. 이번 연구에서는 정밀 궤도 결정에 필요한 궤도 모델링과 위상자료 처리 방법을 연구하였고, 직접 전세계 28개 관측소로부터 관측된 위상 관측 자료들을 최소자추정(Least Square Estimation) 하여 국제 GPS 관측망에서 발표하는 궤도자료에 비길 수 있는 정밀 궤도력을 산출하였다.

Halo coronal mass ejections (CMEs) originating from solar activities give rise to geomagnetic storms when they reach the Earth. Variations in the geomagnetic field during a geomagnetic storm can damage satellites, communication systems, electrical power grids, and power systems, and induce currents. Therefore, automated techniques for detecting and analyzing halo CMEs have been eliciting increasing attention for the monitoring and prediction of the space weather environment. In this study, we developed an algorithm to sense and detect halo CMEs using large angle and spectrometric coronagraph (LASCO) C3 coronagraph images from the solar and heliospheric observatory (SOHO) satellite. In addition, we developed an image processing technique to derive the morphological and dynamical characteristics of halo CMEs, namely, the source location, width, actual CME speed, and arrival time at a 21.5 solar radius. The proposed halo CME automatic analysis model was validated using a model of the past three halo CME events. As a result, a solar event that occurred at 03:38 UT on Mar. 23, 2014 was predicted to arrive at Earth at 23:00 UT on Mar. 25, whereas the actual arrival time was at 04:30 UT on Mar. 26, which is a difference of 5 hr and 30 min. In addition, a solar event that occurred at 12:55 UT on Apr. 18, 2014 was estimated to arrive at Earth at 16:00 UT on Apr. 20, which is 4 hr ahead of the actual arrival time of 20:00 UT on the same day. However, the estimation error was reduced significantly compared to the ENLIL model. As a further study, the model will be applied to many more events for validation and testing, and after such tests are completed, on-line service will be provided at the Korean Space Weather Center to detect halo CMEs and derive the model parameters.
