This paper corresponded to Smart-UAV(Smart Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) technology development, a part of “The 21th Century New-Frontier Development Project” being propelled in accordance with enlarging the necessity of concentration development by selecting our strong technique being able to compete in the international society of knowledge based economy in the 21th century. Also, we designed Ku-band airborne video transceiver system performing to receive the TC(Tele-Command) signal needed to be applicable of Smart-UAV, and send the video and TM(Tele-Metry) signal at the same time. Moreover, we analyzed it in order to satisfy the system request of designed whole communication system, and established the validity on this paper going through by module simulation and manufacture of the whole system.

As a unique payload of Komsat-2, MSC, comprising EOS(Electro-Optical Sub-system), PMU(Payload Management Unit) and PDTS(Payload Data Transmission Sub-system), is supposed to take pictures of one panchromatic and 4 multi-spectral image between wavelength 450mm~900mm, and is being under final Satellite I&T. It will perform the earth remote sensing with applications such as acquisition of high resolution images, surveillance of large scale disasters and its countermeasure, survey of natural resources, etc.. Under the hostile influence of the extreme space environmental conditions due to deep space and direct solar flux, the thermal design is especially of major importance in designing a payload. There are tight temperature range restrictions for electro-optical elements while on the other hand there are low power consumption requirements due to the limited energy source on the spacecraft. This paper describes details of thermal control system for MSC.
