The MSC is a payload on the KOMPSAT-2 satellite to perform the earth remote sensing. The instrument images the earth using a push-broom motion with a swath width of 15 km and a GSD(Ground Sample Distance) of 1 m over the entire FOV(Field Of View) at altitude 685 km. The instrument is designed to haute an on-orbit operation duty cycle of 20% over the mission lifetime of 3 years with the functions of programmable gain/offset and on-board image data compression/storage. The MSC instrument has one channel for panchromatic imaging and four channel for multi-spectral imaging covering the spectral range from 450nm to 900nm using TDI(Time Belayed Integration) CCD(Charge Coupled Device) FPA(Focal Plane Assembly). The MSC hardware consists of three subsystem, EOS(Electro Optic camera Subsystem), PMU(Payload Management Unit) and PDTS(Payload Data Transmission Subsystem) and each subsystems are currently under development and will be integrated and verified through functional and space environment tests. Final verified MSC will be delivered to spacecraft bus for AIT(Assembly, Integration and Test) and then COMSAT-2 satellite will be launched after verification process through IST(Integrated Satellite Test). In this paper, the introduction of MSC, the configuration of MSC electronics including electrical interlace and design of CEU(Camera Electronic Unit) in EOS are described. MSC Operation parameters induced from the operation concept are discussed and analyzed to find the influence of system for on-orbit operation in future.

본 연구에서는 딥러닝을 통해 고해상도 광학 위성영상에 동종센서로 촬영한 영상을 참조하여 폐색 영역을 복원하는 방법을 제안하였다. 패치 단위로 분할된 영상에서 원본 영상의 화소 분포를 최대한 유지하며 폐색 영역을 모의한 영상과 주변 영상의 자연스러운 연속성을 위해 ConvNeXt 블록을 적용한 CycleGAN (Cycle Generative Adversarial Network) 방법을 사용하여 실험을 진행하였고 이를 3개의 실험지역에 대해 분석하였다. 또한, 학습패치 크기를 512*512화소로 하는 경우와 2배 확장한 1024*1024화소 크기의 적용 결과도 비교하였다. 서로 특징이 다른 3개의 지역에 대하여 실험한 결과, ConvNeXt CycleGAN 방법론이 기존의 CycleGAN을 적용한 영상, Histogram matching 영상과 비교하여 개선된 R² 값을 보여줌을 확인하였다. 학습에 사용되는 패치 크기별 실험의 경우 1024*1024화소의 패치를 사용한 결과, 약 0.98의 R²값이 산출되었으며 영상밴드별 화소 분포를 비교한 결과에서도 큰 패치 크기로 학습한 모의 결과가 원본 영상과 더 유사한 히스토그램 분포를 나타내었다. 이를 통해, 기존의 CycleGAN을 적용한 영상 및 Histogram matching 영상보다 발전된 ConvNeXt CycleGAN을 사용할 때 원본영상과 유사한 모의 결과를 도출할 수 있었고, 성공적인 모의를 수행할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The Space-borne electro-optical camera system, like KOMPSAT has panchromatic redundant image channel as well as primary channel in order to increase reliability of satellite system. In most case redundant channel never been used during the whole mission period. Staggered array configuration using redundant image channel and new operation mode proposed which operates primary and redundant channel simultaneously. Without new hardware design, fast electronics and system complexity, we can get 1.414 times more fine GSD image of original system and aliasing effect which corrupt high frequency information of image can be minimized. To get the more efficiency from staggered array configuration, we introduce masked pixel CCD.

This paper presents a modified mean curvature diffusion filter to smooth speckle noise in images. Mean curvature diffusion filter has already shown good results in reducing noise in images while preserving fine details. In the mean curvature diffusion, the rate of smoothing is controlled by the local value of the diffusion coefficient chosen to be a function of the local image gradient magnitude. In this paper, the diffusion coefficient is modified to be controlled adaptively by local image surface slope and heterogeneity. The local surface slope contributes to preserving details (e.g.edges) in image and the local surface heterogeneity helps the smoothing filter consider the amount of noise in both edge and non-edge area. The proposed filter's performance is demonstrated by quantitative experiments using speckle noised aerial image and TerraSAR-X satellite image.

Multi-Spectral Camera(MSC) is a main payload on the KOMPSAT-2 satellite to perform the earth remote sensing. The MSC instrument has one(1) channel for panchromatic imaging and four(4) channel for multi-spectral imaging covering the spectral range from 450nm to 900nm using TDI CCD Focal Plane Array (FPA). The compression method on KOMPSAT-2 MSC was selected and used to match EOS input rate and PDTS output data rate on MSC image data chain. At once the MSC performance was carefully handled to minimize any degradation so that it was analyzed and restored in KGS(KOMPSAT Ground Station) during LEOP and Cal./Val.(Calibration and Validation) phase. In this paper, on-orbit image data chain in MSC and image data processing on KGS including general MSC description is briefly described. The influences on image performance between on-board compression algorithms and between performance restoration methods in ground station are analyzed and discussed.

This study is to test the applicability of QuickBird image for non-point source pollution assessment. SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model was adopted and the model was calibrated for a stream watershed of 255.4 $km^2$ Landsat land use data. For model application with QuickBird image, a precise agricultural land use map of 1.16 $km^2$ area located in the upstream watershed was produced by field investigation. The model was run with the combination of land use and soil map scales (1:5,000, 1:25,000 and 1:50,000). The results were compared and analyzed for the contribution of non-point source pollution by the land use scale and contents.

Stereo matching technique is used in many practical fields like satellite image analysis and computer vision. In this paper, we suggest a method to extract a target object image from a complicated background. For example, human face image can be extracted from random background. This method can be applied to computer vision such as security system, dressing simulation by use of extracted human face, 3D modeling, and security system. Many researches about stereo matching have been performed. Conventional approaches can be categorized into area-based and feature-based method. In this paper, we start from area-based method and apply area tracking using scanning window. Coarse depth information is used for area merging process using area searching data. Finally, we produce a target object image.

Satellite payload on-board date compression unit are use for saving date storage space and reducing time to transmit payload data to the ground station. The KOMPSAT-3 payload will generate higher data rate than KOMPSAT-2 due to its better ground sample distance capacity. High input data rate and limited output transmission data rate might lead excessive compression and degraded image quality. This paper presents a trade-off study about data storage capacity and compression parameters for estimated KOMPSAT-3 system.

The Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) is commonly used to characterize the spatial quality of imaging systems. This work is the attempt to measure the MTF for KOMPSAT EOC using the non-parametric method as ground inputs. The spatial performance of the KOMPSAT EOC was analyzed by edge method while in flight using multi-temporal image data collected over test site in Seoul. The results from this work demonstrate the potential applicability of this method to estimate MTF for high spatial resolution satellite KOMPSAT-2 that is being developed to be launched in 2005.
