  • 20GHz 이상 주파수대역은 아직까지 사용하고 있지 않는 넓은 대역의 전파자원이지만 대기에 의한 전파감쇠가 심해 중계거리에 제약을 받게 되므로 단거리통신에 사용되고 있다. 그러나 현재 국내에서는 20 GHz 이상의 주파수대역에서 어느정도의 거리에서 무선시스템의 선뢰도를보장할수있는지 연구된 적이 없는 실정이다. 본 논문은 20GHz 이상 대역에서 대가중의 전파특성을 분석하고 그 중 무선 경로 길이에 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 강우감쇠를 추정할 수 있는 계산식을 분석하였다. 그리고, 강우감쇠 계산에 가장 기본적인 요소인 강우강도를 국내 측후소에서 측정된 강우 자료를 이용하여 서울등 대 도시에서의 시간별 강우강도 데이터로 제시하고 이를 기 본 데이터로 하여 대도시에서의 무선 중계시스템의 최적 중계거리를 제시하였다.

  • This study provides a comparative analysis of cloud top heights observed by a Ka-band cloud radar and the Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) at Boseong National Center for Intensive Observation of severe weather (NCIO) from May 25, 2013 (1600 UTC) to May 27. The rainfall duration is defined as the period of rainfall from start to finish, and the no rainfall duration is defined as the period other than the rainfall duration. As a result of the comparative analysis, the cloud top heights observed by the cloud radar have been estimated to be lower than that observed by the COMS for the rainfall duration due to the signal attenuation caused by raindrops. The stronger rainfall intensity gets, the more the difference grows. On the other hand, the cloud top heights observed by the cloud radar have been relatively similar to that observed by the COMS for the no rainfall duration. In this case, the cloud radar can effectively detect cloud top heights within the range of its observation. The COMS indicates the cloud top heights lower than the actual ones due to the upper thin clouds under the influence of ground surface temperature. As a result, the cloud radar can be useful in detecting cloud top heights when there are no precipitation events. The COMS data can be used to correct the cloud top heights when the radar gets beyond the valid range of observation or there are precipitation events.

  • X밴드 선박용 레이더를 이용하여 개발한 강우 추정 기술로 강우 사례를 검증하였다. 디지털 신호 변환기를 사용하여 선박용 레이더로부터 수신된 신호를 디지털 반사 정보로 변환하였다. 반사도 정보에서 지형클러터 신호를 제거하고, 빔 감쇠와 빔 부피의 변화에 의해 발생하는 오류를 보정 처리하였다. 처리된 반사 정보는 우량계 강우량과 선형적인 관계를 보였다. 레이더 신호를 직교좌표계로 변환하여 정량적 강우를 추정하였다. 자동기상관측소 세 지점에서 $5mm\;hr^{-1}$ 이상의 강우가 기록된 사례에서 선박용 레이더의 강우 분포는 기상청 운용 기상 레이더의 결과와 일치하였다.

  • This paper evaluates the influence of rainfall on propagated signal at different time exceedance percentages of an average year, over the climate zones of the country. Specifically, it demonstrates critical and non critical signal fade or signal outage time exceedance (0.001% to 1%) for Ku, K, and Ka-band systems in an average year. The study was carried out using meteorological data made available by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) over a period of 10 years (2009-2018). The four climate zones in the country were represented by five (5) locations; Maidugiri (warm desert climate), Sokoto (tropical dry climate), Port Harcourt (tropical monsoon climate), Abuja and Enugu (tropical savanna climate). The parameters were simulated into the International Telecommunications Union Recommended (ITU-R) models for rain attenuation over the tropics and results presented using MatLab and Origin Lab. Results of Ku band propagations showed that only locations in the tropical savanna and tropical monsoon climates experienced total signal outage for time percentage exceedance equal to or below 0.01% for both horizontal and vertical polarizations. At K band propagations, the five locations showed to have experienced signal outage at time exceedance equal to and below 0.01%, almost same was recorded for the Ka-band propagation. It was also observed that horizontal and vertical polarization of signal had slightly different rain attenuation values for the studied bands at the five locations, with horizontal polarization having higher values than vertical polarization.

  • 본 논문에서는 기상청의 10년간의 1분 단위 강수량 측정 데이터를 이용하여 국내 환경에 대한 연평균 강우율 분포 및 강우율 분포와 최악월 강우율 분포의 상관 관계 모델을 제시하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 모델을 기존의 ITU(International Telecommunication Union)-R 권고 모델과 비교한 결과, 시간율 0.01 %에 대해서 국내 연평균 강우율의 전국 평균값은 ITU-R 권고 문서의 강우율에 비하여 약 28 % 높게 나타났다. 또한, 연평균 및 최악월 강우율 분포 간의 상관 관계도 본 논문의 모델과 ITU-R 권고 문서의 모델은 상당히 큰 차이를 보였다. 앞으로 국내 무선 통신 시스템 설계에 필수적인 강우 감쇠의 통계적 특성(시간율 분포) 계산을 위해서는 국내 환경에 적합한 강우율 분포 모델을 사용하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • The radar observation system in Japan is operated by two governmental groups: Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) of Japan. The JMA radar observation network is comprised of 20 C-band radars (with a wavelength of 5.6 cm), which cover most of the Japan Islands and observe rainfall intensity and distribution. And the MLIT's radar observation system is composed of 26 C-band radars throughout Japan. The observed radar echo from each radar unit is first modified, and then sent to the National Bureau of Synthesis Process within the MLIT. Through several steps for homogenizing observation accuracy, including distance and elevation correction, synthesized rainfall intensity maps for the entire nation of Japan are generated every 5 minutes. The MLIT has recently launched a new radar observation network system designed for flash flood observation and forecasting in small river basins within urban areas. It is called the X-band multi parameter radar network, and is distinguished by its dual polarimetric wave pulses of short length (3cm). Attenuation problems resulting from the short wave length of radar echo are strengthened by polarimetric wavelengths and very dense radar networks. Currently, the network is established within four areas. Each area is observed using 3-4 X-band radars with very fine resolution in spatial (250 m) and temporal (1 minute intervals). This study provides a series of utilization procedures for the new input data into a real-time forecasting system. First of all, the accuracy of the X-band radar observation was determined by comparing its results with the rainfall intensities as observed by ground gauge stations. It was also compared with conventional C-band radar observation. The rainfall information from the new radar network was then provided to a distributed hydrologic model to simulate river discharges. The simulated river discharges were evaluated again using the observed river discharge to estimate the applicability of the new observation network in the context of operations regarding flood forecasting. It was able to determine that the newly equipped X-band polarimetric radar network shows somewhat improved observation accuracy compared to conventional C-band radar observation. However, it has a tendency to underestimate the rainfall, and the accuracy is not always superior to that of the C-band radar. The accuracy evaluation of the X-band radar observation in this study was conducted using only limited rainfall events, and more cases should be examined for developing a broader understanding of the general behavior of the X-band radar and for improving observation accuracy.

  • Due to the increasing demand to multimedia services over wireless communication network, LMDS(Local Multipoint Distribution Service) has been proposed as an alternate approach for broadband wireless access network. But LMDS, Which uses the mmwavelength radio spectrum, has been limited for unknown microwave frequency characteristics. In this paper, we analyze the parameters related to the system design on 28GHz frequency: Propagation path loss and rainfall attenuation. Based on these analytical results, the proper cell size in Korea is determined. We also analyze the bit error rate and frame loss rate for various kinds of digital modulation schemes(QAM 4, 16, 64, 256). Finally, we apply to ㅍ service to evaluate a call blocking rate, efficiency and channel capacity.

  • The study discussed the link analysis for the Ka band satellite broadcasting service in Korea with respect to the transmission schemes based on the DVB-S2 standard. To analyze the effect of the rain fading to the link budget, we estimated the rain attenuation from the measured rainfall intensity in Korea. We analyzed the link budget for the Ka band transponders of Koreasat-3, and DirecTV BSS-99W, and showed the possible link availability with the DVB-S2 transmission schemes for each transponder. Based on the link analysis of the available satellites with the Ka band transponders, we suggested the required EIRP for the satellite which will be employed for the Ka band satellite broadcasting service in Korea.
